In the event that all Objecting Stockholders and the Purchaser are unable to reach agreement within thirty (30) days, the Purchaser and the Objecting Stockholders shall submit the matter to a nationally recognized U.S. independent public accounting firm mutually agreed upon by the Purchaser and the Objecting Stockholders (the “Gross Up Arbitrator”) for determination of the Final Allocation and Final Gross-Up Schedule. The Gross Up Arbitrator’s determination must be made within sixty (60) days after the expiration of the aforesaid 30-day period. The Gross Up Arbitrator’s determination of the Final Allocation and Final Gross Up Schedule will be restricted as

to scope to address only those matters as to which Purchaser and the Objecting Stockholder(s) have not reached agreement. The Gross Up Arbitrator’s determination of the Final Allocation and the Final Gross Up Schedule shall be final and binding on the Purchaser and the Objecting Stockholders, and all expenses of the Gross Up Arbitrator shall be borne 50% by the Purchaser and 50% by the Objecting Stockholders.

(c) Upon the final determination of the Final Allocation and Final Gross Up Schedule pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.4(b), (i) if the Estimated Tax Gross Up exceeds the Final Tax Gross Up, the Stockholders shall, jointly and severally, pay the excess to the Purchaser by wire transfer of immediately available funds within five (5) Business Days of the date the Final Tax Gross Up is finally determined and (ii) if the Final Tax Gross Up exceeds the Estimated Tax Gross Up, the Purchaser shall pay the excess to the Stockholders, allocated among the Stockholders as set forth in the Final Gross up Schedule, by wire transfer or delivery of other immediately available funds within five (5) Business Days of the date the Final Tax Gross Up is finally determined.

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, each of the parties hereto shall use its commercially reasonable efforts (subject to, and in accordance with, applicable Law) to take promptly, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do promptly, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other parties in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws to consummate and make effective the sale of the Shares hereunder and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement including (i) the obtaining of all necessary actions or non-actions, waivers, consents and approvals from Governmental or Regulatory Authorities and the making of all necessary registrations and filings and the taking of all steps as may be necessary to obtain an approval or waiver from, or to avoid a Proceeding by, any Governmental or Regulatory Authority, (ii) the obtaining of all necessary consents, approvals or waivers from third parties, (iii) the defending of any lawsuits or other legal proceedings, whether judicial or administrative, challenging this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (iv) the execution and delivery of any additional instruments necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.9 Tax Matters. The following provisions will govern the allocation of responsibility for certain Tax matters following the Closing Date:

(a) Pre-Closing Returns. The Stockholders shall, at the Stockholders’ expense, (i) prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Tax Returns for the Companies for periods ending prior to or including the Closing Date which have not yet been filed as of the Closing Date, including the S short year (as described in Section 5.9(d); (ii) pay or cause to be paid all Tax reported, or required to be reported, on such Tax Returns for the pre-Closing Tax Returns; (iii) include any income or gain recognized as a result of Section 5.13 in the Companies’ and the Stockholders’ pre-Closing Tax Returns; and (iv) cause to be prepared all such Tax Returns consistent with the past practice of the Companies, except as otherwise required by applicable Law; provided, however, that for the avoidance of doubt and to the extent permitted by applicable Law, all deductions related to or arising out of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be treated as arising on or before the Closing Date. At least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which each such Tax Return is filed (including any applicable extensions), the Stockholders shall submit such Tax Return to the Purchaser for the Purchaser’s review and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding the above, all expense, including fines, late fees and additional Taxes, resulting from or arising out of amendments to the Companies’ Tax Returns filed by or on behalf of the Stockholders for periods prior to the Closing Date shall be the obligation of, and be paid by, the Stockholders.

(b) Post-Closing Returns. The Purchaser shall, at Purchaser’s expense, prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Tax Returns for the Companies for all periods beginning after the Closing Date.

(c) Tax Periods Beginning Before and Ending After the Closing Date. The Purchaser will prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed any Tax Returns of the Companies for Tax periods which begin before the Closing Date and end after the Closing Date (“Straddle Tax Periods”). Except as otherwise required by applicable Law, such Tax Returns will be prepared in a manner consistent with Tax Returns prepared and filed by the Company prior to the Closing Date. At least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which each such Tax Return is filed (including any applicable extensions), the Purchaser shall submit such Tax Return to the Stockholders for the Stockholders’ review and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. For purposes of this Section 5.9, 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 Taxes which relates to the portion of such taxable period ending on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date will (i) in the case of any Taxes other than Taxes based upon or related to income, 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 day immediately preceding 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 day immediately preceding the Closing Date. All determinations necessary to give effect to the foregoing allocations will be made in a manner consistent with prior practices of the Companies.

(d) S Termination Year. Items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit shall be allocated between the S short year (as defined in Section 1362(e)(1)(A) of the Code) and the C short year (as defined in Section 1362(e)(1)(B) of the Code) pursuant to Section 1.1362-3(b)(2) of the Code.

(e) Payment of Taxes. To the extent such Taxes are not accrued on the Companies’ books and records and balance sheet as of the Closing, the Stockholders will be liable for the timely payment of all Taxes for Pre-Closing Tax Periods and the portion of Taxes for Straddle Tax Periods which relate to the period ending on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date (collectively, “Pre-Closing Taxes”).

(f) Conduct and Notice of Audits. After the Closing, the Stockholders and the Purchaser shall (i) provide to the other party such information relating to the Companies as the Stockholders or the Purchaser may reasonably request with respect to Tax matters and (ii) cooperate with each other in the conduct of any audit or other proceeding with respect to any Tax involving the Companies and shall retain or cause to be retained all Books and Records pertinent to the Companies for each taxable period or portion thereof ending on or prior to the Closing Date until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (giving effect to any and all extensions and waivers). If any party to this Agreement receives any written notice from any taxing authority proposing an adjustment to any Tax for which any other party hereto may be obligated to indemnify under this Agreement, such party shall give prompt written notice thereof to the other that describes such proposed adjustment in reasonable detail; the failure to give such notice, however, shall not reduce the obligations of a party hereunder unless, and to the extent that, such failure prejudices the rights of the other party to contest such Tax.

(g) Amendment of Tax Returns. Without the prior written consent of the Stockholders, the Purchaser will not amend or permit the Companies to amend any Tax Return relating to a taxable period (or portion of such taxable period) ending on or prior to the Closing Date. The Stockholders shall have the right to amend a pre-Closing Tax Return; provided that at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which each such amended Tax Return is filed, the Stockholders shall submit such amended Tax Return to the Purchaser for the Purchaser’s review and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Section 5.10 Confidentiality.

(a) Commencing on the date hereof and continuing for a period of five (5) years thereafter, (i) Abbinante and the Stockholders will not divulge, transmit or otherwise disclose (except as legally compelled by court order, and then only to the extent required, after prompt notice to the Purchaser of any such order), directly or indirectly, any Confidential Information with respect to the Companies and/or the Business and (ii) Abbinante and the Stockholders will not use, directly or indirectly, any Confidential Information for the benefit of anyone other than the Purchaser or the Business.

For these purposes, ownership of securities of less than five percent (5%) of any class of securities of a public company will not be considered to be competition with the Purchaser’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ business; or

(ii) induce or attempt to induce any potential customer, supplier, licensee or other business relation of the Purchaser or its Subsidiaries not to transact business with the Purchaser or a Subsidiary of the Purchaser in connection with the business of the Purchaser or its subsidiaries or to transact business with another company in lieu of doing business with the Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the business of the Purchaser and its Subsidiaries;

(iii) solicit for himself, herself, itself or any Person (other than the Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries) the business of any Person, in lieu of doing business with the Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries, that is or was a customer, supplier, licensee or other business relation of the Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries (x) with respect to Abbinante, within two (2) years

(c) It is the desire and intent of the parties that the provisions of this Section 5.11 will be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. If any particular provisions or portion of this Section 5.11 is adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, this Section 5.11 will be deemed amended to delete therefrom such provision or portion adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, such amendment to apply only with respect to the operation of such Section in the particular jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made.

(d) The parties recognize that the performance of the obligations under this Section 5.11 by Abbinante and the Stockholders is special, unique and extraordinary in character, and that in the event of the breach by Abbinante or a Stockholder of the terms and conditions of this Section 5.11, the Purchaser will be entitled, if it so elects, to obtain Damages for any breach of this Section 5.11, or to enforce the specific performance thereof by Abbinante or a breaching Stockholder or to enjoin Abbinante or a breaching Stockholder from performing services for any Person.

(e) The parties acknowledge and agree that Damages in the event of a breach of any of the provisions of this Section 5.11 would be difficult, if not impossible, to ascertain and it is therefore agreed that the Purchaser, in addition to and without limiting any other remedy or right it may have, will have the right to seek an injunction and/or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction enjoining any such breach. Abbinante and the Stockholders further agree that the Purchaser will not be required to post a bond or other security in connection with the issuance of any such injunction.

Section 5.12 Update of Schedules. From time to time prior to the Closing Date, the Stockholders may provide updates (“Schedule Updates”) of all Schedules attached hereto to reflect changes thereto, including changes to any representations and warranties in Article III as to which no Schedules have been created as of the date hereof but as to which a Schedule would have been required to have been created on or before the date hereof if such changes had existed on the date hereof; provided, however, that the Stockholders shall deliver such Schedule Updates not less than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.5 and shall provide any additional information with respect to such Schedule Updates that the Purchaser may reasonably request within one (1) Business Day after such request. If any Schedule Update represents a material change from the Schedule provided on the Signing Date, the Purchaser may terminate this Agreement in reliance on Section 9.1. Any Schedule Updates delivered to

Purchaser shall not be deemed to modify the representations and warranties herein for purposes of determining whether or not the conditions to Closing set forth in Section 6.1 has been satisfied, but shall be deemed to modify the representations and warranties herein for purposes of determining any claims for indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(i).

(b) The Purchaser shall increase the Purchase Price in the amount (such amount, the “Tax Gross Up”) necessary to compensate the Stockholders on an after-tax basis for any Taxes payable by the Stockholders in excess of the Taxes payable as if the Section 338(h)(10) Elections had not been made. The Tax Gross Up shall be calculated using the highest federal and state income Tax rates then in effect for ordinary income, recapture income and capital gain income. The after-tax effect of the allocation of the Purchase Price among the assets, including the amount allocated to the covenant not to compete, shall be taken into account in calculating the Tax Gross Up. Any Tax Gross Up paid will be treated as additional Purchase Price for all provisions of this Agreement. The final Tax Gross Up amount (the Final Tax Gross Up) shall be determined pursuant to Section 2.4 herein.

(c) The Form 8883 shall be agreed to by the Purchaser and the Stockholders as soon as practicable after final determination of the Final Gross Up pursuant to Section 2.4(b).

In addition, the Stockholders will have no liability (for indemnification or otherwise) (i) with respect to any individual claim the Damages of which are less than $10,000 and (ii) unless and until the aggregate of all Damages with respect to all aggregate claims exceeds $500,000 (the “Threshold”); provided, however, that once the aggregate amount of such Damages exceeds the Threshold, the Stockholders will be liable only for the entire amount of Damages in excess of the Threshold.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.3(a) above, any Damages with respect to a Purchaser Indemnifiable Claim arising from any breach or inaccuracy of any representation and warranty in Section 3.1 (Ownership of Shares), Section 3.2 (Existence and Good Standing), Section 3.3 (Authority and Enforceability), and Section 3.5 (Capitalization), Section 3.14 (Taxes) and Section 3.28 (Brokers’ or Finders’ Fees), as well as Damages with respect to a Purchaser Indemnifiable Claim under Sections 8.2(a)(ii) through Section 8.2(a)(vi) or which arises from Fraud, will not be subject to or applied toward the Threshold, the General Cap or the Aggregate Cap, and the Purchaser Indemnified Parties will be entitled to indemnification for the entire amount of Damages

with respect thereto without regard to the General Cap or the Aggregate Cap. The term “Fraud” shall mean a final determination of a court of competent jurisdiction that an applicable party has committed fraud under applicable Law against another party in connection with any representations, warranties or covenants made herein or in any schedule, exhibit or certificate delivered pursuant hereto.

(c) The maximum personal liability of the Purchaser to the Stockholders with respect to Stockholder Indemnifiable Claims will be the General Cap. In addition, the Purchaser will have no liability (for indemnification or otherwise) with respect to claims until the total of all Damages with respect to all aggregate claims exceeds the Threshold; provided, however, that once the aggregate amount of such Damages exceeds the Threshold, the Purchaser will be liable only for the entire amount of Damages in excess of the Threshold.

(d) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.3(c) above, any Damages with respect to a Stockholder Indemnifiable Claim arising from any breach or inaccuracy of any representation and warranty in Section 4.1 (Existence and Good Standing), Section 4.2 (Authority and Enforceability) and Section 4.4 (Brokers’ or Finders’ Fees), as well as Damages with respect to a Stockholder Indemnifiable Claim under Sections 8.2(b)(ii) through Section 8.2(b)(iv), will not be subject to or applied toward the Threshold or the Cap, and the Stockholder Indemnified Parties will be entitled to indemnification for the entire amount of Damages with respect thereto without regard to the Threshold or General Cap.

(e) The Stockholders will not have any rights, hereunder or otherwise, to indemnification or contribution from the Company with respect to any matter, and the Stockholders hereby release the Company from any liability arising out of or in connection with any such claim; provided, however, that, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 8.3, the foregoing release is not intended to affect in any way the Stockholders’ right to be indemnified by the Purchaser pursuant to Sections 8.2(b).

(f) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no party hereto shall be entitled to indemnification or reimbursement under any provision of this Agreement for any amount to the extent such party has been indemnified or reimbursed for such amount under any other provision of this Agreement or by any third Person.

(g) The amount of any claims for Damages which indemnification is provided under this Article VIII shall be (i) net of any amounts recovered by an Indemnified Party under insurance policies with respect to such claims, and (ii) reduced to take account of any net Tax benefit realized by the Indemnified Party (including as a result of any basis adjustment) arising from the incurrence or payment of any such claims. If, after the Indemnifying Party has indemnified the Indemnified Party for any part of such claims, the Indemnified Party recovers any such claims under insurance policies, then the Indemnified Party shall reimburse the Indemnifying Party the amount previously paid by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party for such claims, up to the amount recovered by the Indemnified Party for such claims.

(h) The Indemnified Party shall act in a commercially reasonable manner in mitigating any claims for Damages that may provide the basis for an indemnifiable claim (that is, the Indemnified Party shall respond to such claims in the same manner that it would respond to such claims in the absence of the indemnification provided for in this Agreement). Any request for indemnification of specific costs shall include invoices and supporting documents containing reasonably detailed information about the claims for which indemnification is being sought.

Section 8.4 Indemnification Procedure.

(a) Within a reasonable period of time after the incurrence of any Damages by an Indemnified Party seeking indemnification under Section 8.2(a) or Section 8.2(b) hereof, such Indemnified Party will deliver to the Indemnifying Party a written notice of claim (a “Claim Notice”), which Claim Notice will:

(i) state that the Indemnified Party has paid or properly accrued Damages or anticipates that it will incur liability for Damages for which such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement; and

(ii) specify in reasonable detail each individual item of Damages included in the amount so stated, the date such item was paid or properly accrued, the basis for any anticipated liability and the nature of the misrepresentation, breach of warranty, breach of covenant or claim to which each such item is related and the computation of the amount to which such Indemnified Party claims to be entitled hereunder.

(b) In the event that the Indemnifying Party objects to the indemnification of an Indemnified Party in respect of any claim or claims specified in any Certificate, the Indemnifying Party will, within ten (10) days after receipt by the Indemnifying Party of such Claim Notice, deliver to the Indemnified Party a notice to such effect and the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party will, within the twenty (20) day period beginning on the date of receipt by the Indemnified Party of such objection, attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims to which the Indemnifying Party will have so objected. If the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party succeed in reaching agreement on their respective rights with respect to any of such claims, the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party will promptly prepare and sign a memorandum setting forth such agreement. Should the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party be unable to agree as to any particular item or items or amount or amounts during such twenty (20) day period, then the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party will submit such dispute to a court of competent jurisdiction for determination. The party which receives a final judgment in such dispute will be indemnified and held harmless for all reasonable attorney and consultant’s fees or expenses by the other party.

(c) Claims for Damages specified in any Claim Notice to which an Indemnifying Party does not object in writing within ten (10) days of receipt of such Claim Notice, claims for Damages covered by a memorandum of agreement of the nature described in Section 8.4(b), claims for Damages the validity and amount of which have been the subject of judicial determination as described in Section 8.4(b) and claims for Damages the validity and amount of which have been the subject of a final judicial determination, or have been settled with the consent of the Indemnifying Party, as described in Section 8.5, are hereinafter referred to, collectively, as “Agreed Claims.” Within thirty (30) days of the determination of the amount of any Agreed Claims, to the extent not paid from the Escrow Account in the event of a Purchaser Indemnifiable Claim, the Indemnifying Party will pay to the Indemnified Party an amount equal to the Agreed Claim by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the bank account or accounts designated by the Indemnified Party in a written notice to the Indemnifying Party not less than three (3) Business Days prior to such payment.

Section 8.5 Third Party Claims. If a claim by a third party is made against any Indemnified Party, and if such Indemnified Party intends to seek indemnity with respect thereto under this Article VIII, such Indemnified Party will promptly notify in writing the Indemnifying Party of such claims pursuant to Section 8.4; provided, that the failure to so notify will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually and materially prejudiced thereby. The Indemnifying Party will have thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice to assume the conduct and control, through counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, of the settlement or defense thereof; provided, however, that (i) the Indemnifying Party will permit the Indemnified Party to participate in such settlement or defense through counsel chosen by such Indemnified Party, provided that the fees and expenses of such counsel will be borne by such Indemnified Party and (ii) the Indemnifying Party will promptly be entitled to assume the defense of such action only to the extent the Indemnifying Party acknowledges its indemnity obligation and assumes and holds such Indemnified Party harmless from and against the full amount of any Damages resulting therefrom subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement; provided, further, that the Indemnifying Party will not be entitled to assume control of such defense and will pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party if (i) the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party agree, reasonably and in good faith, that such third-party claim would give rise to Damages which are more than 150% of the amount then remaining indemnifiable by such Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Article VIII; (ii) the claim for indemnification relates to or arises in connection with any criminal Proceeding, (iii) the claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against the Indemnified Party; (iv) the Indemnified Party has been advised in writing by counsel that a reasonable likelihood exists of a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party; or (v) upon petition by the Indemnified Party, the appropriate court rules that the Indemnifying Party failed or is failing to vigorously prosecute or defend such claim. Any Indemnified Party will have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action or claim and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel will not be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party has failed, within a reasonable time after having been notified by the Indemnified Party of the existence of such claim as provided in the preceding sentence, to assume the defense of such claim, (ii) the employment of such counsel has been specifically authorized in writing by the Indemnifying Party, or (iii) the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and such Indemnified Party has been advised in writing by its counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party which either are not available to the Indemnifying Party, or are available to the Indemnifying Party but the assertion of which would be adverse to the interests of the Indemnified Party. So long as the Indemnifying Party is reasonably contesting any such claim in good faith, the Indemnified Party will not pay or settle any such claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Party will have the right to pay or settle any such claim, provided, however, that in such event it waives any right to indemnity therefor by the Indemnifying Party for such claim unless the Indemnifying Party has consented to such payment or settlement. If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days after the receipt of the Indemnified Party’s notice of a claim of indemnity hereunder that it elects to undertake the defense thereof, the Indemnified Party will have the right to contest, settle or compromise the claim but will not thereby waive any right to indemnity therefor pursuant to this Agreement. The Indemnifying Party will not, except with the consent of the Indemnified Party, enter into any settlement that is not entirely indemnifiable by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Article VIII and does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the Person or Persons asserting such claim to all Indemnified Parties of an unconditional release from all liability with respect to such claim or consent to entry of any judgment.

The Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party will cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any claim, including making available records relating to such claim and furnishing, without expense to the Indemnifying Party and/or its counsel, such employees of the Indemnified Party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of any such claim or for testimony as witnesses in any Proceeding relating to such claim.

Section 8.6 Exclusive Remedies. In the absence of Fraud, the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VIII shall provide the exclusive remedy for breach of any covenant, agreement, representation or warranty set forth in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. The parties shall not be entitled to a rescission of this Agreement, or to any further indemnification rights or other claims of any nature whatsoever in respect thereof (whether by contract, common law, statute, law, regulation or otherwise, including, without limitation, under the Racketeer Influence and Corrupt Organizations Act of 1970, as amended), all of which the parties hereby waive.

ARTICLE IX

TERMINATION

Section 9.1 Termination Events. This Agreement may, by written notice given prior to or at the Closing, be terminated:

(a) by either the Purchaser, on the one hand, or the Stockholders, on the other hand, if a material breach of any provision of this Agreement has been committed by the other party and such breach has not been waived in writing;

(b) by the Purchaser if any of the conditions in Article VI have not been satisfied as of the Closing Date or if satisfaction of such condition is or becomes impossible (other than through the failure of the Purchaser to comply with its obligations under this Agreement) and the Purchaser has not waived such condition in writing on or before Closing;

(c) by the Stockholders if any of the conditions in Article VII have not been satisfied as of the Closing Date or if satisfaction of such condition is or becomes impossible (other than through the failure of the Stockholders to comply with its obligations under this Agreement) and the Stockholders have not waived such condition in writing on or before Closing;

(d) by the mutual written consent of the Purchaser and the Stockholders; or

(e) by either the Purchaser or the Stockholders if the Closing has not occurred (excluding a delay resulting from failure of the party seeking to terminate this Agreement to comply fully with its obligations under this Agreement) on or before January 31, 2015, or such later date as the parties may agree upon in writing.

Section 9.2 Effect of Termination. Each party’s right of termination under Section 9.1 is in addition to any other rights it may have under this Agreement or otherwise, and the exercise of a right of termination will not be an election of remedies. Except for the obligations contained in Section 5.10(b) and the next sentence, if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9.1, all further obligations of the parties under this Agreement will terminate. Notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement, the Purchaser will not take any action intended to disparage or damage the reputation of the Companies, the Stockholders, or Abbinante, their respective Affiliates, directors, officers or

personnel, or to engage in any other action that is intended to injure or hinder the business relationships of the Business. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9.1(e), termination shall be the sole and exclusive remedy and no party shall have any additional rights or remedies available to it.

ARTICLE X

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 10.1 Expenses. The Purchaser shall pay all documentary, stamp, sales, transfer, excise or other similar Taxes incurred in connection with this Agreement, the Transaction Documents, and the transactions contemplated hereby (but not any income Taxes imposed on Stockholders), and the filing of any Tax return with respect to such Taxes. Other than as described in the first sentence of this Section 10.1, whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, the parties hereto will pay all of their own expenses relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the fees and expenses of their respective counsel and financial advisers. The fees and expenses of the Escrow Agent will be paid one-half by the Purchaser and one-half by the Stockholders.

Section 10.2 Governing Law; Venue. The interpretation and construction of this Agreement, and all matters relating hereto, will be governed by the laws of the State of Illinois applicable to agreements executed and to be performed solely within such State, without regard to principles of conflicts of law of any jurisdiction. Any proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any right arising out of, this Agreement shall be brought against any of the parties in the circuit courts located in Chicago, Illinois, or, if it has or can acquire jurisdiction, in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, and each of the parties consents to the jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts) in any such proceeding and waives any objection to venue laid therein. Process in any proceeding referred to in the preceding sentence may be served on any party anywhere in the world.

Purchaser, Planesite, Abbinante and the Stockholders each (i) certify that no representative, agent or attorney of the other party has represented, expressly or otherwise that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (ii) acknowledge that it and the other parties have been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 10.3.

Section 10.6 Assignment; Parties in Interest. This Agreement may not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated by any party hereto without the express written consent of the other party hereto, other than by operation of law; provided, however, that the Purchaser may assign its rights, interests and obligations hereunder to any direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary or to any Affiliate and provided, further, that if the Purchaser makes any assignment referred to above, the Purchaser will remain liable under this Agreement. This Agreement is binding upon and will inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and permitted assigns.

Section 10.7 Counterparts; Facsimile Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts, all of which taken together will constitute one (1) instrument.

Section 10.8 Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement, including the Schedules and the Exhibits hereto, and the other documents referred to herein which form a part hereof, contains the entire understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter contained herein and therein. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between the parties with respect to such subject matter.

Section 10.9 Severability. If any term, provision, agreement, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, agreements, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect and will in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party hereto. Upon such a determination, the parties will negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a reasonably acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby may be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 10.10 Independence of Covenants and Representations and Warranties. All covenants hereunder will be given independent effect so that if a certain action or condition constitutes a default under a certain covenant, the fact that such action or condition is permitted by another covenant will not affect the occurrence of such default, unless expressly permitted under an exception to such initial covenant. In addition, all representations and warranties hereunder will be given independent effect so that if a particular representation or warranty proves to be incorrect or is breached, the fact that another representation or warranty concerning the same or similar subject matter is correct or is not breached will not affect the incorrectness or a breach of such initial representation or warranty.

Section 10.11 Third-Party Beneficiaries. Each party hereto intends that this Agreement will not benefit or create any right or cause of action in or on behalf of any Person other than the parties hereto and the Indemnified Parties.

In the event any ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement will be construed as if drafted jointly by all parties hereto, and no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement.
