1.10    Allocation of Consideration. Not later than ninety (90) days following the Closing, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller a statement of allocation which shall provide for the allocation of the Consideration plus the Assumed Liabilities, to the extent properly taken into account pursuant to the provisions of Section 1060 of the Code, among the Purchased Assets and the covenants contained in Article 9 (the “Allocation Schedule”).  Such Allocation Schedule shall be prepared in accordance with the provisions of Code Section 1060 and the Treasury Regulations thereunder (the “Allocation Principles”).  Within fifteen (15) days after the receipt of such Allocation Schedule, Seller will propose to Buyer in writing any reasonable changes to such Allocation Schedule together with reasonable documentation supporting such changes (and in the event that no such changes are proposed in writing to Buyer within such time period, Seller will be deemed to have agreed to, and accepted, the Allocation Schedule as delivered).  Buyer and Seller will attempt in good faith to resolve any differences with respect to the Allocation Schedule, in accordance with the Allocation Principles, within fifteen (15) days after Buyer’s receipt of a timely written notice of objection from Seller.  If Buyer and Seller are unable to resolve such differences within such time period, then any remaining disputed matters will be submitted to KPMG (the “Independent Accountant”) for resolution, in accordance with the Allocation Principles.  The Independent Accountant shall have sole authority to determine any and all substantive and procedural matters pertaining to the resolution of the dispute between Buyer and Seller arising under this Section 1.10.  Promptly, but not later than fifteen (15) days after such matters are submitted to it for resolution hereunder, the Independent Accountant will determine those matters in dispute and will render a written report as to the disputed matters and the resulting allocation of such amounts, which report shall be conclusive and binding upon Buyer and Seller.  The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant in respect of such report shall be paid one-half by Buyer and one-half by Seller.  Buyer and Seller shall each file or cause to be filed IRS Form 8594 for its taxable year that includes the Closing Date in a manner consistent with the allocation set forth on the Allocation Schedule as so finalized, and (except as set forth below relating to a revised Allocation Schedule) shall not take any position on any Tax Return or in the course of any Tax audit, review, or litigation inconsistent with the allocation provided in the Allocation Schedule unless otherwise required by applicable Law; provided, however, that (a) Buyer’s cost for the Purchased Assets may differ from the total amount allocated hereunder to reflect the inclusion in the total cost of items (for example, capitalized acquisition costs) not included in the total amount so allocated and (b) the amount realized by Seller may differ from the total amount allocated hereunder to reflect transaction costs that reduce the amount realized for federal income Tax purposes. In the event that any adjustment is required to be made to the Allocation Schedule as a result of any Earn Out Payments or any other adjustment to the Consideration pursuant to this Agreement, Buyer shall prepare or cause to be prepared, and shall provide to Seller, a revised Allocation Schedule reflecting such adjustment.  Such revised Allocation Schedule shall be subject to review and resolution of timely raised disputes in the same manner as the initial Allocation Schedule.  Each of Buyer and Seller shall file or cause to be filed a revised IRS Form 8594 reflecting such adjustments as so finalized for its taxable year that includes the event or events giving rise to such adjustment, and (except as required by future revised Allocation Schedule) shall not take any position on any Tax Return or in the course of any Tax audit, review, or litigation inconsistent with the allocation provided in the revised Allocation Schedule unless otherwise required by applicable Law.

4.9    Collection of Accounts Receivable. Following the Closing, Buyer shall have the right and authority to collect all Accounts Receivable and other items transferred and assigned to Buyer by Seller hereunder and to endorse with the name of Seller any checks received on account of such Accounts Receivable or other items. Seller agrees that it will, within three (3) Business Days of receipt, transfer, assign and deliver to Buyer all cash and other property which it may receive with respect to any such Accounts Receivable from and after the Closing Date, and pending any such delivery to Buyer of any such property, Seller shall hold any such property in trust for the benefit of Buyer. Buyer shall, after the Closing Date, use commercially reasonable efforts to collect such Accounts Receivable. Any amounts received from the account debtor of such Accounts Receivable shall be applied as Buyer may determine, except for amounts which the debtor has directed to be applied to a particular Accounts Receivable.

with written offers to be made by Buyer to such Designated Employees prior to the Closing Date. Each such offer shall include the base salary or wage rate and cash bonus opportunity of such employee’s position with the Buyer, which position shall be substantially comparable both in job duties and level to the position held by such Designated Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date. Seller shall reasonably assist Buyer in making such offers and shall not take any actions specifically intended to discourage a Designated Employee from accepting such offers; provided, however, that no cost or expense shall be required to be incurred by Seller in order to comply with this sentence. Seller hereby consents to the hiring of such Designated Employees by Buyer and waives any claims or rights Seller may have against Buyer or any such Designated Employees under any non-competition, confidentiality or employment agreement with respect to the Designated Employees’ performance of services on behalf of Buyer to the extent such activities are a part of operating the Business (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not in relation to Seller Programs referenced within subpart (x) of Section 9.1(a) below); provided, however, that nothing in this Section shall diminish (i) Buyer’s obligations under Sections 9.1(b) and 9.1(d) of this Agreement or (ii) any Designated Employee’s obligations under applicable non-competition, confidentiality or employment agreements with Seller following the termination of such Designated Employee’s employment with Buyer.
(b)    Effective as of the Closing Date in accordance with Section 1.9 hereof, the Designated Employees who have accepted employment with Buyer will become employed by Buyer upon those terms agreed upon between Buyer and such employees.

(c)    After the Closing Date, Seller shall remain responsible for (i) any and all wages, salaries and other cash compensation (including, without limitation, accrued vacation leave, sick leave, bonuses, commissions and other incentive-based cash compensation) payable to Seller Employees and any former employees, officers and consultants of Seller (“Former Seller Employees”) for periods employed by Seller subject to Section 4.11(b) above, (ii) any severance, retention bonus or change in control payment payable to any Seller Employees or Former Seller Employees that become due or owed as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (iii) other than with respect to the Continuing Employees, providing COBRA continuation coverage, to the extent required by ERISA, for any Employee Plan that is a group health plan with respect to any qualifying event that occurs during the applicable period of employment by Seller subject to Section 4.11(b) above, and (iv) except as provided in clause (i) of Section 4.11(d) with respect to certain cash compensation, any and all Liabilities relating to or arising in connection with the Employee Plans.
(d)    As of the Closing Date, Buyer shall become responsible for any and all wages, salaries and other cash compensation payable to each Continuing Employee for periods (i) while employed by Seller only to the extent set forth on Schedule 4.11(d), and (ii) while employed by Buyer subject to Section 4.11(b) above, on such terms and conditions as Buyer and each Continuing Employee may agree.

Nothing in this Section 4.11 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall limit the right of Buyer to amend or terminate any employee benefit plan of Buyer at any time. Buyer and Seller agree that Seller Employees are not third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement.
(e)    Seller shall be responsible for and will perform all Tax withholding, payment and reporting duties with respect to any wages and other compensation paid by Seller on or prior to the Closing Date to any Continuing Employee, and Buyer shall be responsible for and will perform all Tax withholding, payment and reporting duties with respect to any wages and other compensation paid to any Continuing Employee after the Closing Date. Seller and Buyer shall adopt the “standard procedure” for preparing and filing IRS Forms W-2, as described in Revenue Procedure 2004-53.

Seller shall notify Buyer promptly (and, in any case, within one (1) Business Day) of any inquiries, proposals or offers received by, any information requested from, or any discussions or negotiations sought to be initiated or continued with, Seller or any of Seller’s directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors or other representatives concerning an Alternative Transaction indicating, in connection with such notice, the names of the parties and the material terms and conditions of any proposal or offer and, in the case of written materials, providing copies of such materials, all of which shall be deemed to be Confidential Information of Seller. Seller agrees to keep Buyer informed, on a prompt basis (and, in any case, within one (1) Business Day of any significant development), of the status and terms of any such proposals or offers. Seller agrees to immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing activities, discussions or negotiations with respect to any potential Alternative Transaction or similar transaction or arrangement. Seller agrees to take the necessary steps to promptly inform the

4.14    Covenants Pertaining to the Continuation of the Business.

8.5    Assertion of Claims.
(a)    Notice of Claim. After becoming aware of any Losses for which either Buyer or Seller may seek indemnification hereunder (such Party, an “Indemnitee”), such Indemnitee shall give written notice thereof to either Buyer or Seller, as applicable (an “Indemnitor”), demanding payment, subject to Section 8.4, of an indemnification claim arising under Section 8.2 (a “Demand”). Such Demand shall describe in reasonable detail the nature of the claim, an estimate of the amount of Losses attributable to such claim (to the extent then known) and the basis of the Indemnitee’s request for indemnification under this Agreement. Subject to Section 8.4(a), no delay on the part of the Indemnitee in notifying the Indemnitor under this Section 8.5 shall relieve the Indemnitor from any obligation hereunder, except to the extent that the Indemnitor shall have been materially adversely affected by such delay.
(b)    Response to a Demand. The Indemnitor may reply to a Demand made under Section 8.5(a) hereof by written notice given to the Indemnitee, which notice shall state (i) whether the Indemnitor agrees or disagrees that the claim asserted is a valid claim under this Agreement and agrees or disagrees with respect to the amount of the Losses in such Demand and (ii) if Indemnitor disagrees with either the validity of such claim or the amount of such Losses, the basis for such disagreement.
(i)    If the Indemnitor does not give the Indemnitee a notice disputing such Demand and specifying the nature and amount of such dispute within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Demand (the “Indemnity Notice Period”) or the Indemnitor gives notice that such Demand is uncontested; then the Indemnitor shall, subject to Sections 8.3 and 8.4 above, deliver payment to the Indemnitee in cash an amount equal to the value of the Losses stated in the Demand within fifteen (15) days of the earlier of expiration of such Indemnity Notice Period or notice that the Demand is uncontested. If the notice from the Indemnitor admits that a portion of the Demand is a valid claim under Section 8.2 and the remaining portion of the Demand is disputed, the Indemnitor shall pay to the Indemnitee in cash an amount equal to the value of the Losses as are allocable to mutually agreed upon Losses within fifteen (15) days of delivery of

Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to this information.



such notice from the Indemnitor, and the disputed portion of such Demand shall be resolved in accordance with Section 8.5(c).
(c)    Disputed Claims. If the notice given by the Indemnitor as provided in Section 8.5(b) hereof disputes all or part of the claim or claims asserted in the Demand by the Indemnitee or the amount of Losses thereof, within the Indemnity Notice Period (a “Disputed Claim”), then, to the extent of the disputed portion of the Demand, the Demand shall be treated as a Disputed Claim. The Parties hereto shall make a reasonable good faith effort to resolve their differences for a period of thirty (30) days following the Indemnity Notice Period asserting a Disputed Claim.
(d)    Third Party Claims. After receipt of any assertion of Losses by any third party (“Third Party Claims”) that might give rise to any Losses for which indemnification may be sought pursuant to Section 8.2, the Indemnitee shall promptly give written notice of such Third Party Claim (a “Notice of Third Party Claim”) to the Indemnitor, which Notice shall state the (i) nature, basis and facts giving rise to such Third Party Claim, (ii) the specific representation(s), warranty(ies) or covenant(s) with respect to which such Third Party Claim is made, (iii) the amount of Losses or the estimated amount thereof to the extent known and feasible, and (iv) the amount of liability asserted against the Indemnitor by reason of the Third Party Claim. Such Notice of Third Party Claim shall be accompanied by copies of all relevant documentation with respect to such Third Party Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure to provide notice as aforesaid to the Indemnitor will not relieve the Indemnitor from any liability which it may have to the Indemnitee under this Agreement or otherwise except to the extent that the Indemnitor shall have been materially adversely affected by such failure.
(e)    Defense of Third Party Claims. The Indemnitor may elect to defend any Third Party Claim (an “Election to Defend”) with counsel of its own choosing, reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee, so long as (i) within ten (10) days after receipt of notice of the Third Party Claim, the Indemnitor notifies the Indemnitee in writing that the Indemnitor will, subject to the limitations of this Section 8, indemnify the Indemnitee from and against any Losses that the Indemnitee may incur relating to or arising out of the Third Party Claim, (ii) the Indemnitor provides the Indemnitee with evidence reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee that the Indemnitor has the financial resources to defend against the Third Party Claim and fulfill its indemnification obligations hereunder, (iii) the Indemnitee has determined in good faith that there would be no conflict of interest with respect to the Election to Defend, (iv) the Third Party Claim does not involve, and is not likely to involve, any claim by any Governmental Entity, (v) the Third Party Claim involves only money damages and does not seek an injunction or other equitable relief or involve a criminal matter, (vi) the amount of the Third Party Claim does not exceed the amount of the Cash Consideration, (vii) settlement of, or an adverse judgment with respect to, the Third Party Claim is not, in the good faith judgment of the Indemnitee, likely to establish a precedential custom or practice adverse to the continuing business interests of the Indemnitee or injure the Indemnitee’s reputation, customer or supplier relations or future business prospects, (viii) the Indemnitor conducts the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently, and (ix) the Indemnitor keeps the Indemnitee apprised of all material

developments, including settlement offers, with respect to the Third Party Claim and permits the Indemnitee to participate, at its own expense, through counsel of the Indemnitee’s choice, in the defense of the Third Party Claim. No Third Party Claim may be settled without the consent of the Indemnitee, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. An Election to Defend constitutes an admission that such claim is within the scope of the Indemnitor’s indemnification obligations hereunder. If the Indemnitor chooses not to defend any Third Party Claim by failure to deliver on a timely basis the Election to Defend or by failure to meet the conditions specified above, the Indemnitee may defend against such Third Party Claim, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim in any manner it may deem appropriate, obtain advancement from the Indemnitor for the fees and expenses of counsel incurred in defending against such Third Party Claim and obtain indemnification pursuant to this Article 8 for Losses resulting from such Third Party Claim. In addition, if the Indemnitor has assumed defense of the Third Party Claim and if a potential or actual conflict of interest shall exist or if different defenses shall be available between the Indemnitor and Indemnitee, then the Indemnitee shall be entitled to retain separate legal counsel and submit the fees and expenses of such counsel as part of a Demand pursuant to Section 8.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnitee will at all times have the right to fully participate in such defense at its own expense directly or through counsel. Each Party shall make available to each other and their counsel and accountants all books and records and information relating to any Third Party Claim, keep each other fully apprised as to the details and progress of all proceedings relating thereto and render to each other such assistance as may be reasonably required for the proper and adequate defense of any Third Party Claim.
8.6    Tax Treatment. The Parties agree to treat all payments made by or deemed to be made by a Party under this Article 8 as adjustments to the Consideration hereunder unless otherwise required by applicable law.
8.7    [*] Parties. Notwithstanding anything that may be expressed or implied in this Agreement, Seller acknowledges and agrees that (a) no recourse in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may be had against [*] or [*] (together, “[*]”), any of their respective Affiliates (other than Buyer), or any of their respective officers, employees, partners, members, agents or representatives (collectively, the “[* ]Parties”), and (b) no personal liability whatsoever will attach to, be imposed on or otherwise be incurred by any [*] Parties with respect to such statements made or actions taken prior to the date hereof.
8.8    Exclusivity. Except as provided in Section 11.11 and except for claims for Actual Fraud, the indemnities set forth in this Article 8 shall be the exclusive remedies of the Parties for any misrepresentation, breach of warranty or nonfulfillment or failure to perform any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement, and the Parties shall not be entitled to any further indemnification rights or claims of any nature whatsoever in respect thereof.

Buyer hereby acknowledges that except as set forth herein, the Seller is not making any representation or warranty with respect to such estimates, projections and other forecasts and plans (including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections and forecasts).

(d)    Buyer agrees during the Restriction Period, not to, directly or indirectly:

9.2    Confidentiality. Each of the Parties recognizes that in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement certain Confidential Information of each Party has been disclosed to the other, and that the disclosure of the Confidential Information by such other Party or third parties would cause the disclosing Party substantial losses and damages that could not be readily calculated and for which no remedy at law would be adequate. Accordingly, each Party covenants and agrees with the other Party not to at any time, directly or indirectly, disclose or publish, or permit other Persons (including Affiliates of such other Party), to directly or indirectly disclose or publish any Confidential Information of the other Party, unless (a) such information becomes generally known to the public through no fault of the disclosing Party, (b) the disclosing Party is advised in writing by counsel that disclosure is required by law or the order of any Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction under color of law, or (c) the disclosing party reasonably believes (based on written advice of counsel) that such disclosure is required in connection with the defense of a lawsuit; provided, that prior to disclosing any information pursuant to clause (b) or (c) above, such Party shall give prior written notice thereof to the other Party and provide such other Party with the opportunity to contest or limit such disclosure and shall cooperate with efforts to prevent such disclosure. It is acknowledged that the Parties will be engaged in certain similar activities and that the provisions of this Section 9.2 shall not be interpreted to (i) restrict Buyer from using Confidential Information of Seller as necessary to conduct the Business, subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.1 above and the restrictions on disclosure contained in this Section 9.2 and (ii) restrict Seller from using Confidential Information of Buyer solely as necessary to conduct the businesses of Seller going forward, subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.1 above and the restrictions on disclosure contained in this Section 9.2.

9.4    Severability; Reformation. The covenants in this Article 9 are severable and separate, and the unenforceability of any specific covenant shall not affect the provisions of any other covenant. Moreover, in the event any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that the scope, time or territorial restrictions set forth are unreasonable, then it is the intention of the Parties that such restrictions be enforced to the fullest extent which the court deems reasonable, and the Agreement shall thereby be reformed.
9.5    Independent Covenant. All of the covenants in this Article 9 shall be construed as an agreement independent of any other provision in this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action of a Party against the other Party, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by either Party of such covenants. The Parties expressly acknowledge that the terms and conditions of this Article 9 are independent of the terms and conditions of any other agreements entered into in connection with this Agreement. It is specifically agreed that the periods set forth in this Article 9 during which the agreements and covenants made in this Article 9 shall be effective, shall be computed by excluding from such computation any time during which the Person bound by such agreement or covenant is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been in violation of any provision of this Article 9. The covenants contained in this Article 9 shall not be affected by any breach of any other provision hereof by any Party hereto.
