No Person who does not take in a timely fashion all steps necessary to perfect his/her/its rights under Chapter 13 of the CGCL shall be deemed a Dissenting Stockholder under this Agreement.

Purchaser shall also pay the amounts owed in accordance with the Non-Competition Agreements to the Disbursement Agent, for the benefit of the applicable Stockholders in the manner set forth in Section 2.8 and Section 2.9 hereof.

(b) Repayment of Indebtedness.

(i) For purposes of this Agreement, “Indebtedness Payment” means an amount equal to, as of the Closing Date, the then outstanding principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, and any premiums, prepayment fees and penalties due upon prepayment and full satisfaction of, all bank or other third party indebtedness for borrowed money of the Company, including without limitation indebtedness under any bank credit agreement, any capital lease and any other related agreements but not including any indebtedness to trade creditors, or indebtedness to employees for unreimbursed business expenses in the Ordinary Course of Business. Indebtedness Payments (including the creditors names and the amount of indebtedness outstanding) are listed in Schedule 2.5(b).

(ii) If so requested by Purchaser prior to the Closing, the Stockholder Representative shall deliver to Purchaser a statement setting forth the detailed individual amounts to be included in the Indebtedness Payment on the Closing Date, which statement may, if so requested by Purchaser, be accompanied by a pay off letter from each applicable third party creditor whose amounts will be included in such Indebtedness Payment. If so requested by Purchaser prior to the Closing, the Stockholder Representative shall deliver to Purchaser a certificate setting forth (A) the amount of the Indebtedness Payment or stating that the Indebtedness Payment will be zero, and (B) the amount of cash on hand at the Company immediately prior to the Closing that will be utilized to pay all or a portion of the Indebtedness Payment (“Pre-Closing Cash”). The amount obtained by subtracting the amount set forth in clause (B) from the amount set forth in clause (A) being referred to herein as the “Net Indebtedness Payment.”

(iii) Unless the Net Indebtedness Payment is zero, at the Closing, Purchaser shall provide to the Company from the Initial Purchase Price an amount in cash equal to the Net Indebtedness Payment, and the Company shall (A) pay the lenders an amount in cash equal to the Indebtedness Payment and (B) use its Reasonable Best Efforts to terminate, without any continuing liability of the Company or its subsidiaries thereunder, all agreements evidencing the borrowings referred to in this section, and all pledges, mortgages and security interests, if any, with respect to all such indebtedness, to effect the cancellation of all notes and other evidence of such indebtedness, to deliver appropriate evidence of cancellation to the Company and to the Purchaser and to cause the redelivery of all certificates of stock held pursuant to any such terminated pledge agreements.

Unless the Transaction Costs are zero, at the Closing, Purchaser shall provide to the Company from the Initial Purchase Price an amount in cash equal to the Transaction Costs, and the Company shall pay the applicable creditors the portion of the Transaction Costs owed to them.

2.6 Determination of Working Capital.

(a) Determination of Estimated Working Capital. Prior to the Closing Date, the Company and Stockholder Representative have prepared and delivered to Purchaser a certificate certifying the Company’s and Stockholder Representative’s good faith estimate of the Working Capital of Company as of the Closing Date (“Estimated Working Capital”), that included an estimated unaudited balance sheet of Company as of the Closing Date (“Estimated Closing Date Balance Sheet”). Upon receipt of the Estimated Closing Date Balance Sheet, Purchaser identified any adjustments that it reasonably believed were required to the certificate delivered by the Company and Stockholder Representative. On the Closing Date, if Stockholder Representative disputes any such adjustments, Purchaser and Stockholder Representative shall use Reasonable Best Efforts to resolve such dispute, after which Stockholder Representative shall re-deliver to Purchaser the certificate with such adjustments as the parties have agreed are appropriate. The form of certificate finally delivered pursuant to this Section 2.6(a) and acceptable to the Purchaser and the Stockholder Representative is referred to herein as the “Closing Payment Certificate.” The Company, Stockholder Representative and Purchaser acknowledge and agree that the Closing Payment Certificate shall be utilized by Purchaser to calculate the Initial Purchase Price. In the event that the Estimated Working Capital set forth in the Closing Payment Certificate is less than ninety two percent (92%) of the Working Capital Threshold, then the Initial Escrow Amount shall be increased by the amount equal to such shortfall (“Initial Working Capital Escrow Amount”).

(b) Determination of Actual Working Capital. Within forty-five (45) days after the Closing Date, Purchaser will prepare and deliver to Stockholder Representative a certificate, signed by Purchaser’s Chief Financial Officer, certifying Purchaser’s determination of the actual Working Capital of the Company as of the Closing Date, and identifying any adjustments to the Initial Purchase Price as a result of such amounts being greater or less than the

amounts set forth on the Closing Payment Certificate. If Stockholder Representative does not object to Purchaser’s certificate within thirty (30) days after receipt, or accepts such certificate during such thirty (30) day period, the Initial Purchase Price shall be adjusted as set forth in Purchaser’s certificate, and payment shall be made in accordance with Section 2.7. If Stockholder Representative objects to the Purchaser’s certificate, Stockholder Representative shall notify Purchaser in writing of such objection within thirty (30) days after Stockholder Representative’s receipt thereof (such notice setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such objection). During such thirty (30) day period and until the resolution of any dispute regarding Purchaser’s determination of Actual Working Capital, Purchaser shall permit Stockholder Representative access to such work papers and books and records of the Company relating to the preparation of Purchaser’s certificate, as may be reasonably necessary to permit Stockholder Representative to review in detail the manner in which Purchaser’s certificate was prepared. Purchaser and Stockholder Representative shall thereafter negotiate in good faith to resolve any such objections. If Purchaser and Stockholder Representative are unable to resolve all of such differences within twenty (20) calendar days of Purchaser’s receipt of Stockholder Representative’s objections, the items in dispute may be referred by any party for determination as promptly as practicable to the Independent Accounting Firm, which shall be jointly engaged by Purchaser, on the one hand, and Stockholder Representative, on the other hand, pursuant to an engagement letter in customary form which each of Purchaser and Stockholder Representative shall execute. If McGladrey & Pullen LLP is unable to serve as the Independent Accounting Firm, and Purchaser and Stockholder Representative have failed to reach agreement on an Independent Accounting Firm within ten (10) calendar days following the termination of the twenty (20) calendar-day period referred to in the immediately preceding sentence, then the Independent Accounting Firm shall be selected by the American Arbitration Association. The parties shall direct the Independent Accounting Firm to prescribe procedures for resolving the disputed items and to make a written determination, with respect to such disputed items only, whether and to what extent, if any, the Closing Payment Certificate and the accompanying calculations of the Working Capital of Company at Closing require adjustment based on the terms and conditions of this Agreement (the “Determination”). The Determination shall be based solely on presentations with respect to such disputed items by Purchaser and Stockholder Representative to the Independent Accounting Firm and not on the Independent Accounting Firm’s independent review; provided, that such presentations shall be deemed to include, without limitation, any work papers, records, accounts or similar materials delivered to the Independent Accounting Firm by Purchaser or Stockholder Representative in connection with such presentations and any materials delivered to the Independent Accounting Firm in response to requests by the Independent Accounting Firm. Each of Purchaser and Stockholder Representative shall use its Reasonable Best Efforts to make its presentation as promptly as practicable following submission to the Independent Accounting Firm of the disputed items, and each such party shall be entitled, as part of its presentation, to respond to the presentation of the other party and any question and requests of the Independent Accounting Firm. Purchaser and Stockholder Representative shall instruct the Independent Accounting Firm to deliver the Determination to Purchaser and Stockholder Representative no later than thirty (30) calendar days following the date on which the disputed items are referred to the Independent Accounting Firm. In deciding any matter, the Independent Accounting Firm (i) shall be bound by the provisions of this Section 2.6(b), (ii) may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either Purchaser or Stockholder Representative or less than the

smallest value for such item claimed by Purchaser or Stockholder Representative, and (iii) shall be bound by the express terms, conditions and covenants set forth in this Agreement, including the definition of Working Capital contained herein. In the absence of fraud or manifest error, the Determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Purchaser, Stockholder Representative and Stockholders. The parties shall direct the Independent Accounting Firm to consider only those items and amounts in the Purchaser’s certificate which Purchaser and Stockholder Representative were unable to resolve. All fees and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses and fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm) incurred in connection with any dispute over Purchaser’s certificate shall be borne by the parties based on the percentage which the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each party bears to the amount actually contested by such party. The Initial Purchase Price as finally adjusted in accordance with this Section 2.6 shall be deemed to be the “Purchase Price”.

2.7 Adjustment to Purchase Price. The Working Capital amount determined in accordance with Section 2.6(b) (the “Actual Working Capital”) shall be used to calculate post-Closing adjustments to the Initial Purchase Price in order to arrive at the Purchase Price. If the lesser of the Actual Working Capital or the Working Capital Threshold exceeds the lesser of the Estimated Working Capital or the Working Capital Threshold, then Purchaser shall pay to the Disbursement Agent for the benefit of the Stockholders an amount equal to such excess difference. If the lesser of the Estimated Working Capital or the Working Capital Threshold exceeds the Actual Working Capital, then Purchaser shall receive such difference as a payment from the Escrow Account. All payments to be made to either Purchaser or the Disbursement Agent pursuant to this Section 2.7 shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Disbursement Agent’s accounts or Purchaser’s account, as applicable, within three (3) business days after the date on which Actual Working Capital is finally determined pursuant to Section 2.6 above. Any amounts required to be paid pursuant to this Section 2.7 which are not paid when due shall accrue interest at the rate of seven percent (7%) per annum until paid in full.

2.8 Form of Payments. All cash payments hereunder shall be made by delivery to the recipient by depositing, by bank wire transfer, the required amount (in immediately available funds) in an account of the recipient, which account shall be designated by the recipient in writing at least five (5) business days prior to the date of the required payment. All cash payments to be made to the Stockholders hereunder shall be made by delivery to one account for the benefit of the Stockholders and in the name of Allison-McCloskey Escrow Company, as Disbursement Agent, who will serve as disbursement agent for the Stockholders (the “Disbursement Agent”) pursuant to the terms of a disbursement agent agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Disbursement Agent Agreement”). All cash so deposited with the Disbursement Agent shall be referred to herein as the “Disbursement Fund.”

2.9 Method of Payment.

(a) Disbursement Agent. The Disbursement Agent shall, pursuant to irrevocable instructions set forth in the Disbursement Agent Agreement and the Letter of Transmittal, pay to each Stockholder out of the Disbursement Fund the Share Price to be paid per share of Company Common Stock held by such Stockholder pursuant to Section 2.5, and shall further pay the amounts owed in accordance with the Non-Competition Agreements to the Key Employees who have entered into Non-Competition Agreements pursuant to Section 5.1 hereof.

In accordance with the terms of the Disbursement Agent Agreement, the Company and the Stockholders have appointed and constituted the Disbursement Agent with power to act individually, as the Company’s and the Stockholders’ representative for purposes of disbursement of all of Purchaser’s payments hereunder, to act and exercise any and all powers on behalf of Company and the Stockholders in relation to the receipt and distribution of the all of Purchaser’s payments hereunder, and the Disbursement Agent has accepted such appointment.

(b) Letter of Transmittal. On the Closing Date and continuing thereafter as and when received from each Stockholder and Option holder of record, the Company, or if previously deposited with the Stockholder Representative or the Disbursement Agent, the Stockholder Representative or the Disbursement Agent shall deliver to the Purchaser a letter of transmittal in substantially the form of Exhibit I attached hereto (the “Letter of Transmittal”) from each Stockholder and Option holder of record from whom the Company or, as applicable, the Stockholder Representative or the Disbursement Agent, has received a Letter of Transmittal, duly completed and validly executed by each Stockholder and Option holder accompanied by the Certificates and such other documents as reasonably may be required by the Letter of Transmittal, stating, inter alia:

(i) that payment of the Aggregate Share Price payable to such holder shall be made against and only upon delivery to the Purchaser by such holder of the certificates which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding Company Common Stock (the “Certificates”) owned by such Person or as otherwise specified in the Letter of Transmittal;

(ii) that risk of loss and title to the Certificates and other items required to be delivered by the holder shall pass only upon delivery of such items to the Purchaser, and that all such items the form of which is not attached hereto shall be in customary form, including such customary provisions as the Purchaser reasonably may specify in its written instructions for use by the Stockholders in effecting the surrender to the Purchaser of such items;

(iii) that such Stockholder agrees to comply with the requirements of this Agreement imposed upon such Stockholder, including without limitation, Section 2.3, Section 2.8, Section 2.9, and Section 23 through and including Section 29;

(iv) if required, an IRS Form W-9, completed by such Stockholder, in a form reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser or the Stockholder Representative.

(c) Payment Procedure. Following the execution and delivery to the Disbursement Agent of a Letter of Transmittal duly completed and validly executed by a Stockholder accompanied by the Certificates and such other documents as reasonably may be required by the Letter of Transmittal, at the Closing the Disbursement Agent shall pay (or, if such execution and delivery occurs after the Closing, the Disbursement Agent shall pay promptly, (but in no event more than five (5) business days)) by wire transfer (or such other means specified by each Stockholder) of immediately available funds to the account designated by the Stockholder in his/her/its Letter of Transmittal an amount equal to the Aggregate Share Price deliverable in respect thereof. Until so surrendered, each Certificate (other than Company Common Stock owned by Dissenting Stockholders) shall be deemed, for all purposes, to

evidence only the right to receive upon such surrender the amount to which such Person is entitled pursuant to this Section 2. No interest shall be paid or accrued in respect of any cash payments to be made under this Section 2.9.

(d) Evidence of Ownership. If the Aggregate Share Price (or any portion thereof) is to be delivered to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificates surrendered in exchange therefor are registered, it shall be a condition to the payment of such amount that the Certificates so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or accompanied by appropriate stock powers and otherwise in proper form for transfer, that such transfer otherwise be proper and that the Person requesting such transfer pay to the Disbursement Agent any transfer or other Taxes payable by reason of the foregoing or establish to the satisfaction of the Purchaser that such Taxes have been paid or are not required to be paid.

(e) No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock; No Transfers. At and after the Effective Time, each holder of a Certificate shall cease to have any rights as a stockholder of the Company, except for the right to surrender his/her/its Certificate in exchange for payment of the Aggregate Share Price; provided, however, that each Dissenting Stockholder shall have the rights prescribed by the CGCL. At and after the Effective Time, no transfer of Company Common Stock shall be made on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation. Certificates presented to the Surviving Corporation after the Effective Time shall be canceled and exchanged for the Aggregate Share Price as provided in this Section 2. At the close of business on the day of the Effective Time the stock ledger of the Company with respect to Company Common Stock shall be closed.

(f) Lost, Stolen, or Destroyed Certificates. In the event any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed utilizing the form of Affidavit of Lost Stock Certificate attached hereto as Exhibit O, the Disbursement Agent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the amount deliverable in respect thereof as determined in accordance with this Section 2, provided that the Person to whom such amount is paid shall, as a condition precedent to the payment thereof, indemnify the Disbursement Agent, the Surviving Corporation and the Purchaser in a manner reasonably satisfactory to them against any claim that may be made against the Disbursement Agent, the Surviving Corporation or the Purchaser with respect to the Certificate claimed to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

(g) Dissenting Stockholders-Payment. The Disbursement Agent shall make no distribution of a Dissenting Stockholder’s Aggregate Share Price unless and until the validity of such claim as a Dissenting Stockholder has been determined and the fair value of a Dissenting Stockholder’s Company Common Stock has been determined for any Dissenting Stockholder in the manner contemplated by Chapter 13 of the CGCL. At that time, the Disbursement Agent shall pay to the Dissenting Stockholder the Aggregate Share Price for the Dissenting Stockholder’s Company Common Stock and, the Escrow Agent shall pay from the Escrow Account the amount, if any, that the fair value of such Dissenting Stockholder’s Company Common Stock exceeds the Aggregate Share Price for such Dissenting Stockholder’s Company Common Stock; provided, however, if the amount owed exceeds the Escrow Amount, then such excess amount shall be paid to the Disbursement Agent by the Stockholders, pro rata in accordance with their respective numbers of shares of Company Common Stock, for payment by

the Disbursement Agent to such Dissenting Stockholder. If any holder of Company Common Stock fails to perfect or after the Effective Time effectively withdraws or loses his/her/its rights as a Dissenting Stockholder, each share of Company Common Stock owned by such Stockholder will thereupon be treated as if it has been converted into and has become exchangeable for, at the Effective Time, the Aggregate Share Price, without interest thereon. The Company and/or the Surviving Corporation shall give the Purchaser and the Disbursement Agent (i) prompt written notice of any demands for payment received by the Company pursuant to Chapter 13 of the CGCL, and (ii) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demand for appraisal under the CGCL, except to the extent Company reasonably determines such participation would jeopardize the attorney-client, work product or other privilege of Company, violate Company’s confidentiality obligations or otherwise violate applicable Law. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of the Purchaser or as required by applicable law or court order, make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal or offer to settle or settle such demands.

(h) Termination of Paying Agency. Any portion of the Closing Payment that remains undistributed by the Disbursement Agent for six (6) months after the Effective Time shall be delivered by the Disbursement Agent to or as directed by the Purchaser, upon demand, and any holders of Certificates who have not theretofore complied with this Section 2 shall thereafter look only to the Purchaser (subject to abandoned property, escheat and other similar legal requirements) as a general creditor for payment of their claim for the same, with such sums to be paid only upon compliance by such Stockholder with all conditions to payment of the same specified in this Section 2. Neither the Purchaser, the Disbursement Agent nor the Company shall have any liability to any Stockholder for any loss suffered by such Stockholder under any abandoned property, escheat, or similar legal requirement, it being specifically agreed that it shall be the responsibility of each Stockholder and not the Purchaser, the Disbursement Agent or the Company to assure that the Stockholder takes the actions necessary to secure timely payment under this Agreement.

(i) Withholding Rights. If the Purchaser believes in good faith that the withholding of Taxes is required in connection with any distribution of any portion of the Share Price under this Agreement, the Purchaser shall have the right to withhold such Taxes from the amounts payable to any Stockholder who fails to submit to the Purchaser any evidence reasonably requested by the Purchaser to the effect that such withholding is not required. For all purposes of this Agreement, all such withheld amounts shall be treated as having been paid to the Stockholder from whom such amounts shall have been withheld.

against which such claim is asserted. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby indefinitely.

11.5 Certain Limitations on Indemnification Obligations.

(a) The Purchaser Parties and Stockholders shall not be entitled to receive any indemnification payments under Section 11.1 or 11.2, until the aggregate amount of Losses incurred by the Purchaser Parties or Stockholders, as the case may be, exceeds $200,000 (the “Basket Amount”), and Stockholders, collectively, or the Purchaser (as applicable) shall only be liable for the amount of all such Losses that exceed the Basket Amount.

(b) Except as set forth in this Section 11.5(b), the maximum aggregate amount of indemnification payments under this Section 11 which the Purchaser Parties or Stockholders shall be entitled to receive, upon the triggering of any indemnification obligation hereunder, shall not exceed the Initial Escrow Amount (the “Aggregate Cap Amount”). No Stockholder shall have any personal liability to the Purchaser Parties in excess of such Stockholder’s pro rata proportion of the Aggregate Cap Amount hereunder, other than for a claim brought by the Purchaser Parties based upon such individual Stockholder’s fraud or willful misconduct with respect to the Letter of Transmittal or the Principal Stockholders Agreement and Knowledge Certificate, as applicable, executed by such Stockholder, in which event such Stockholder shall have personal liability only to the extent of the Aggregate Share Price actually received by such individual Stockholder (the “Individual Cap Amount”). The foregoing limitation applies regardless of whether such damages are sought based upon the Company’s or such Stockholder’s indemnification obligations hereunder, the Company’s or such Stockholder’s other covenants or agreements contained herein or any other Transaction Document (excluding, for this purpose only, any Non-Competition Agreement, Employee Agreement or Confidential Severance Agreement entered into by such Stockholder), and regardless of whether such damages are sought based upon fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence, breach of contract, breach of warranty, negligence or any other legal or equitable theory.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any indemnification payments based upon any ERISA Claim, any Government Contract Claim, any Tax Claim, any Special Claims, any Certificate of Capitalization Claim, the supplemental indemnification provisions contained in Section 11.3, a breach of the representation contained in Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, or 3.8, the amount owed to a Dissenting Stockholder pursuant to Section 2.9(g) or based upon fraud or willful misconduct shall not be subject to the Basket Amount set forth in Section 11.5(a).

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall limit any Stockholder’s liability to the Purchaser Parties for any and all acts or omissions of such Stockholder (i) in any capacity other than as a stockholder of the Company or (ii) with respect to matters outside of the scope of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein.

11.6 Defense of Claims. In the case of any claim for indemnification under Section 11.1, 11.2 or 11.3 arising from a claim of a third party (including the IRS or any Governmental Authority), an indemnified party shall give prompt written notice and, subject to

the following sentence, in no case later than twenty (20) days after the indemnified party’s receipt of notice of such claim, to the indemnifying party of any claim, suit or demand of which such indemnified party has Knowledge and as to which it may request indemnification hereunder. The failure to give such notice shall not, however, relieve the indemnifying party of its indemnification obligations except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually harmed thereby. The indemnifying party shall have the right to defend and to direct the defense against any such claim, suit or demand (including, without limitation, any ERISA Claim, any Tax Claim, any Government Contract Claim, any Special Claims, any Certificate of Capitalization Claim, and claims relating to Section 11.3), in its name and at its expense (or in the Company’s name, if required), and with counsel selected by the indemnifying party provided, however, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to defend or direct the defense of any such claim, suit or demand if it refuses to acknowledge fully its obligations to the indemnified party or contests, in whole or in part, its indemnification obligations therefor and further provided, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to defend or direct the defense of such claim, suit or demand if: (i) the third party asserting the claim is a Customer of the Company, unless the indemnifying party is the Purchaser; (ii) an adverse judgment with respect to the claim, will establish a precedent materially adverse to the continuing business interests of the Company unless the indemnifying party is the Purchaser; (iii) there is a conflict of interest between the indemnified party and the indemnifying party in the conduct of such defense; or (iv) such claim, suit or demand seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the indemnified party. If the indemnifying party elects, and is entitled, to compromise or defend such claim, it shall within thirty (30) days (or sooner, if the nature of the claim so requires) notify the indemnified party of its intent to do so, and the indemnified party shall, at the request and expense of the indemnifying party, cooperate in the defense of such claim, suit or demand. If the indemnifying party elects not to compromise or defend such claim, fails to notify the indemnified party of its election as herein provided or refuses to acknowledge or contests its obligation to indemnify under this Agreement, the indemnified party may pay, compromise or defend such claim. Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the indemnifying party shall have no indemnification obligations with respect to any such claim, suit or demand which shall be settled by the indemnified party without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnified party shall not be required to refrain from paying any claim which has matured by a court judgment or decree, unless an appeal is duly taken therefrom and exercise thereof has been stayed, nor shall it be required to refrain from paying any claim where the delay in paying such claim would result in the foreclosure of a lien upon any of the property or assets then held by the indemnified party or where any delay in payment would cause the indemnified party material economic loss. The indemnifying party’s right to direct the defense shall include the right to compromise or enter into an agreement settling any claim by a third party; provided that no such compromise or settlement shall obligate the indemnified party to agree to any settlement which requires the taking of any action by the indemnified party other than the delivery of a release, except with the consent of the indemnified party (such consent to be withheld or delayed only for a good faith reason). Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s right to compromise or settle in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the indemnifying party may not settle or compromise any claim over the objection of the indemnified party; provided, however, that consent by the indemnified party to settlement or compromise shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

The indemnified party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any claim, suit or demand with counsel selected by it subject to the indemnifying party’s right to direct the defense. The fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnified party; provided, however, that, in the case of any claim, suit or demand which seeks injunctive or other equitable relief against the indemnified party, the fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party.

11.7 Non-Third Party Claims. Any claim for indemnification which does not arise from a third party claim shall be asserted by a written notice to the other party or parties. The recipient of such notice shall have a period of thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice within which to respond thereto. If the recipient does not respond within such thirty (30) days, the recipient shall be deemed to have accepted responsibility for the Losses set forth in such notice and shall have no further right to contest the validity of such notice. If the recipient responds within such thirty (30) days after the receipt of the notice and rejects such claim in whole or in part, the party delivering shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to it under contract or applicable Law.

11.8 Liability of the Company. The Purchaser Parties shall not after the Closing make any claim against Company in respect of any representation, warranty, covenant or any other obligation of Company to the Purchaser Parties hereunder or under any other Transaction Document to which Company is a party. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, but subject to the limitations of Section 11.5 above (including without limitation the Basket Amount, the Aggregate Cap Amount and the Individual Cap Amount, as applicable), the Purchaser Parties retain, and nothing contained in this Section 11.8 shall in any way waive or limit, their rights to bring claims against any Stockholder for Losses up to such Stockholder’s Individual Cap Amount based upon such Stockholder’s fraud or willful misconduct with respect to the Letter of Transmittal or Principal Stockholders Agreement and Knowledge Certificate, as applicable, executed by such Stockholder.

11.9 Tax Treatment. Unless otherwise required by applicable Law, all indemnification payments shall constitute adjustments to the Purchase Price for all Tax purposes, and no party shall take any position inconsistent with such characterization.

11.10 No Waiver. The foregoing indemnification provisions in this Section 11 (including without limitation the provisions of Section 11.4 and Section 11.5) do not (a) waive or affect any claims for fraud or willful misconduct to which any party may be entitled, or shall relieve or limit the liability of any other party from any liability arising out of or resulting from fraud or willful misconduct in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or in connection with the delivery of any of the documents referred to herein and (b) waive or affect any equitable remedies to which any party may be entitled.

11.11 No Right of Contribution. Stockholders shall have no right to seek contribution from Company or Purchaser with respect to all or any part of any of a Stockholder’s indemnification obligations under this Section 11.

11.12 Escrow. Except with respect to indemnity claims against a Stockholder that are expressly made subject to the Individual Cap Amount, unless otherwise requested by Stockholders, indemnity claims, if any, against the Company or the Stockholders shall be solely satisfied against amounts held in the Escrow Account.

12. POST CLOSING MATTERS. Following the Closing Date, the parties agree as follows:

12.1 Cooperation. In case at any time after the Closing any further action is necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, each of the parties will take such further action (including the execution and delivery of such further instruments and documents) as any other party reasonably may request, all at the sole cost and expense of the requesting party (unless the requesting party is entitled to indemnification therefor under Section 11 hereof). Company acknowledges and agrees that from and after the Closing Merger Sub and Purchaser will be entitled to possession of and Stockholder Representative will provide to Merger Sub and Purchaser all documents, books, records (including Tax records), agreements, corporate minute books and financial data of any sort relating to Company.

12.2 Litigation Support. In the event and for so long as any party actively is contesting or defending against any action, suit, proceeding, hearing, investigation, charge, complaint, claim, or demand in connection with (i) any transaction contemplated under this Agreement or (ii) any fact, situation, circumstance, status, condition, activity, practice, plan, occurrence, event, incident, action, failure to act, or transaction that existed on or prior to the Closing Date involving Company, each of the other parties will cooperate with such party and such party’s counsel in the contest or defense, make available their personnel, and provide such testimony and access to their books and records as shall be reasonably necessary in connection with the contest or defense, all at the sole cost and expense of the contesting or defending party (unless the contesting or defending party is entitled to indemnification therefor under Section 11 hereof).

12.3 Transition. Neither any Principal Stockholder nor Company will take any action that is designed or intended to have the effect of discouraging any lessor, licensor, customer, supplier, or other business associate of Company from maintaining the same business relationships with Company after the Closing as it maintained with Company prior to the Closing. Each Principal Stockholder will, as agreed to in the Principal Stockholders Agreement and Knowledge Certificate, refer all customer inquiries relating to the business of Company to Company from and after the Closing.

12.4 Confidentiality. Company and each Principal Stockholder, as agreed to in the Principal Stockholders Agreement and Knowledge Certificate, will treat and hold as confidential all of the Confidential Information, refrain from using any of the Confidential Information except in connection with this Agreement, and (except as provided in Section 12.5 and Section 12.6) deliver promptly to Purchaser or destroy, at the request and option of Purchaser, all tangible embodiments (and all copies) of the Confidential Information which are in Company’s or such Principal Stockholder’s possession. In the event that Company or any Principal Stockholder is requested or required (by oral question or request for information or documents in any legal proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigative demand, or similar process) to disclose any Confidential Information, Company or such Principal Stockholder will notify Purchaser promptly of the request or requirement so that Purchaser may seek an appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 12.4. If, in the absence of a

protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, Company or a Principal Stockholder is, on the advice of counsel, compelled to disclose any Confidential Information to any tribunal or else stand liable for contempt, Company or such Principal Stockholder may disclose the Confidential Information to the tribunal; provided, however, that Company or such Principal Stockholder shall use his/her/its Reasonable Best Efforts to obtain, at the request of Purchaser, an order or other assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such portion of the Confidential Information required to be disclosed as Purchaser shall designate. The foregoing provisions shall not apply to any Confidential Information which is generally available to the public immediately prior to the time of disclosure.

12.5 Books and Records. Each party agrees that it will reasonably cooperate with and make available (or cause to be made available) to the other party, during normal business hours, all books and records, information and employees (without substantial disruption of employment) retained, remaining in existence or continuing to be employed after the Closing Date which are necessary or useful in connection with any Tax inquiry, audit, or dispute, any litigation or investigation or any other matter requiring any such books and records, information or employees for any reasonable business purpose (a “Permitted Use”). The party requesting any such books and records, information or employees shall bear all of the out-of-pocket costs and expenses reasonably incurred in connection with providing such books and records, information or employees. All information received pursuant to this Section 12.5 shall be kept confidential pursuant to Section 12.4 (which shall continue to apply to this extent following the Closing Date) by the party receiving it, except to the extent that disclosure is reasonably necessary in connection with any Permitted Use.

12.6 Cooperation and Records Retention. Company, Principal Stockholders, Merger Sub and Purchaser each shall (i) provide the other with such assistance as may reasonably be requested by either of them in connection with the preparation of any Tax Return, audit, or other examination by any Taxing Authority or judicial or administrative proceedings relating to liability for any Taxes; (ii) retain and provide the other with any records or other information that may be relevant to such Tax Return, audit or examination, proceeding or determination; (iii) provide the other with any final determination of any such audit or examination, proceeding, or determination that affects any amount required to be shown on any Tax Return of the other for any period; and (iv) cooperate with respect to closing the books of Company and filing a Tax Return for Company as of the Closing Date. The party requesting any such assistance or information shall bear all of the out-of-pocket costs and expenses reasonably incurred in connection with providing such assistance or information. Company and the Principal Stockholders, as agreed to in the Principal Stockholders Agreement and Knowledge Certificate, shall (A) retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to Company relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statue of limitations (and, to the extent notified by Purchaser or Principal Stockholders, any extensions thereof) of the respective taxable periods, and abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Taxing Authority, (B) upon the request of the other parties, provided, at such other parties’ sole cost and expense, copies of such books and records, and (C) give the other parties reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if any of the other parties so request, shall allow the requesting party to take possession of such books and records.

No later than twenty (20) days prior to filing, the Stockholder Representative shall deliver to Purchaser all such Tax Returns and any related work papers and shall permit Purchaser to review and comment on each such Tax Return and shall make such revisions to such Tax Returns as are reasonably requested by Purchaser. Stockholders shall timely pay to the appropriate taxing authority any Taxes of Company with respect to such periods to the extent such Taxes were not included as a liability in the calculation of Actual Working Capital.

Any Taxes of Company with respect to the portion of such period ending on the Closing Date, to the extent such Taxes were not included as a liability in the calculation of Actual Working Capital, shall be paid in cash by all Stockholders. The costs, fees and expenses related to the preparation of such Tax Returns shall be paid by Purchaser or Company. For purposes of this Section, in the case of any Taxes that are imposed on a periodic basis and are payable for a taxable period that includes but does not end on the Closing Date, the portion of such Tax which relates to the portion of such taxable period ending on the Closing Date shall (i) in the case of any Taxes other than Taxes based upon or related to income or receipts, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the taxable period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire taxable period, and (ii) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to income or receipts be deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the relevant taxable period ended on the Closing Date. Any credits relating to a taxable period that begins before and ends after the Closing Date shall be taken into account as though the relevant taxable period ended on the Closing Date. All determinations necessary to give effect to the foregoing allocations shall be made in a manner consistent with prior practice of Company.

(c) Tax Sharing Agreements. All Tax Sharing Agreements or similar agreements with respect to which the Company is a party shall, if so requested by Purchaser, be terminated as of the Closing Date and, after the Closing Date, Company shall not be bound thereby or have any liability thereunder.

(d) Amended Returns. Except in connection with an audit resolved pursuant to Section 12.7(e) (including consistent correlative adjustments to Tax Returns for non-audited taxable periods), no party may amend a Tax Return filed by any party with respect to Company or file or amend any Tax election of Company, in each case, for a taxable period beginning prior to the Closing Date, without the consent of the other parties hereto, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Purchaser shall, upon request by Stockholder Representative and at the sole expense of the Stockholders, cooperate in the preparation of and submission to the proper Taxing Authority of any amended Tax Return of Company for any other taxable period proposed by any Taxing Authority, or to give effect to an allowable loss carryback or carryover from a taxable period of Company ending on or before the Closing Date. Stockholders shall cooperate with Purchaser in the preparation of and submission of the proper Taxing Authority of any amended Tax Return of the Company.

(e) Audits and Contests Regarding Taxes. Any party who receives any notice of a pending or threatened Tax audit, assessment, or adjustment relating to Company, or the Stockholders with respect to Company, which may give rise to liability of another party hereto, shall promptly notify Purchaser and Stockholder Representative within ten (10) business days of the receipt of such notice. The parties each agree to consult with and to keep the other parties hereto informed on a regular basis regarding the status of any Tax audit or proceeding to the extent that such audit or proceeding could affect a liability of such other parties (including indemnity obligations hereunder). Stockholder Representative shall have the right to represent Company’s interests in any Tax audit or administrative or judicial proceeding and to employ counsel of Stockholder Representative’s choice, but reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser, at Stockholders’ expense, but only to the extent such audit or other proceeding substantially pertains to taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date. Purchaser shall have the right to participate in such proceeding at Company’s expense. Purchaser and Stockholders (through Stockholder Representative) shall be entitled to represent their own interests in light of their responsibilities (including indemnity obligations) for the related Taxes, at Company’s expense with respect to Purchaser and Stockholders’ expense with respect to Stockholders, in any audit or administrative or judicial proceedings involving a taxable period that includes but does not end on the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Stockholder Representative shall not agree to any settlement for any taxable period that would effect Tax liabilities of Purchaser or Company for any taxable period beginning on or after the Closing Date without prior written consent of Purchaser. Except as provided in this Section 12.7(e), the provisions of Section 11 including the provisions therein addressing settlement authority, shall govern the manner in which Tax audit or administrative or judicial proceedings are resolved.

13. EXPENSES. Except as otherwise expressly set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, Purchaser and Merger Sub shall bear their respective legal and other fees and expenses incurred in connection with its negotiating, executing and performing this Agreement, including, without limitation, any related broker’s or finder’s fees, and Company and Stockholders shall bear their respective legal and other fees and expenses incurred in connection with their negotiating, executing and performing this Agreement, including, without limitation, any related broker’s or finder’s fees, for periods on or before the Closing Date provided, however, such costs and expenses that are paid for by Company shall be paid only to the extent they are fully reflected in the calculation of Working Capital. Stockholders shall bear their own legal and other fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement after the Closing, including, without

limitation, any related broker’s or finder’s fees, subject to the provisions of this Agreement. Stockholders shall pay all applicable Taxes, if any, imposed by Law on Stockholders as a result of the transfer of the Company Common Stock in accordance herewith.

14. FURTHER ASSURANCES. From time to time at or after the Closing Date, at the request of any party hereto, Purchaser, Merger Sub, Company and/or Principal Stockholders, as agreed to in the Principal Stockholders Agreement and Knowledge Certificate, each will execute and deliver such other instruments of conveyance, assignment, transfer and delivery and take such actions as the other reasonably may request in order to consummate, complete and carry out the transactions contemplated hereby, including the execution and delivery of such instruments and agreements as may be reasonably necessary or advisable to fully effect the Merger and the performance of this Agreement.

15. AMENDMENT; BENEFIT AND ASSIGNABILITY. This Agreement may be amended only by the execution and delivery of a written instrument by or on behalf of the Stockholder Representative, Company, Merger Sub and Purchaser. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and no other Person or entity shall have any right (whether third party beneficiary or otherwise) hereunder. Company and Principal Stockholders, as agreed to in the Principal Stockholders Agreement and Knowledge Certificate, acknowledge and agree that Merger Sub and/or Purchaser may merge with another Person after Closing, and any successor Person will have all of the rights and remedies of Merger Sub and/or Purchaser hereunder. This Agreement may not be assigned by any party without the prior written consent of the other parties; provided, however, that Merger Sub and/or Purchaser may assign all or any portion of this Agreement to any Affiliate of Purchaser, provided that Purchaser shall remain obligated for the payment of the Purchase Price and the performance of this Agreement.

(vii) to incur and pay out of the Closing Payment expenses, including fees of brokers, attorneys, accountants, bankers, and other professional advisors incurred pursuant to the transactions contemplated hereby, and any other fees and expenses allocable or in any way relating to such transaction or any indemnification claim, whether incurred prior or subsequent to Closing;

If the Stockholder Representative resigns or ceases to function in such capacity for any reason whatsoever, then

the successor Stockholder Representative shall be the Person appointed by the Stockholders that held a majority of the Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that if for any reason no successor has been appointed within thirty (30) days, then any Stockholder, who as of the date and time immediately prior to the Effective Time, held more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding Company Common Stock shall have the right to petition a court of competent jurisdiction for appointment of a successor Stockholder Representative. The Company, the Stockholders and the holders of the Options, if any, appointing the Stockholder Representative do hereby jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold the Stockholder Representative harmless from and against any and all Loss (including without limitation attorneys’ fees) reasonably incurred or suffered as a result of the performance of such Stockholder Representative’s duties under this Agreement, except for any such liability arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Stockholder Representative.
