2.3 Tangible Net Worth.

(a) Closing Balance Sheet. Within thirty (30) days after the Closing, Seller shall prepare or cause to be prepared and delivered to Buyer a balance sheet of Seller as of the Effective Date (the “Closing Balance Sheet”), which Closing Balance Sheet will set forth Tangible Net Worth calculation as of the Effective Date, prepared in such a manner to accurately reflect the Purchased Assets and current liabilities of Seller as of the Effective Date and prepared in a manner consistent with the Financial Statements.

If Buyer’s Response accepts the accuracy of the Closing Balance Sheet or does not provide the Buyer’s Response within such fifteen business day period, the Closing Balance Sheet, including the calculation of the Tangible Net Worth set forth therein, shall be the Final Closing Balance Sheet. If Buyer’s Response disputes the accuracy of the Closing Balance Sheet, Buyer’s Response shall list any proposed corrections or changes to the Closing Balance Sheet and shall specify in reasonable detail Buyer’s reasons for such dispute. If Seller does not object to Buyer’s Response within fifteen (15) business days after receipt thereof, any proposed corrections or changes set forth in the Buyer’s Response shall be made to the Closing Balance Sheet, and such Closing Balance Sheet, as modified, shall be considered the Final Closing Balance Sheet.

The parties shall bear their own expenses in connection with the post-closing adjustments and review, and shall bear equally the costs of the Auditor if one is utilized.

Any payment pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be made within One Hundred Twenty (120) days following the completion of each of the twelve-month periods and shall be accompanied by a statement of Buyer setting forth the basis for the determination of the amount of the Earnout Payment. There will be no Earnout Payment for either of the twelve-month periods if Net Sales for the applicable twelve-month periods do not exceed $2,000,000.

2.5 Allocation of Purchase Price. The parties agree that the Purchase Price shall be allocated among the Purchased Assets as shown on Schedule 2.5 and agree that any and all tax returns and filings of Buyer, Seller or Shareholder shall be made on a basis consistent with such allocation.

ARTICLE IV

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLER AND SHAREHOLDER

As an inducement to Buyer to enter into this Agreement, Seller and Shareholder hereby jointly and severally represent and warrant to Buyer that as of the Closing Date:

4.1 Authority; Binding Nature of Agreement. Each of Seller and Shareholder has the full legal right and power and all authority required by law to enter into this Agreement and the Transaction Documents to which it or he is a party and to perform their respective obligations hereunder and thereunder. Shareholder is the sole shareholder of Seller and there are no outstanding options, warrants, claims or rights of third persons with respect to any shares of the capital stock or any other interest in Seller. Each of Seller and Shareholder has duly executed and delivered this Agreement and each of the Transaction Documents to which it or he is a party and this Agreement and each of the Transaction Documents to which it or he is a party are the legal, valid and binding obligations of Seller and Shareholder enforceable against them in accordance with their terms.

4.2 Organization and Power. Seller is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Texas. Seller is duly qualified to transact business in each jurisdiction listed on Schedule 4.2. Such jurisdictions constitute all of the jurisdictions in which the conduct of the Business or ownership of the Purchased Assets requires such qualification. Seller has full corporate power and authority to own and sell the Purchased Assets and to carry on the Business. Seller has no Affiliates (defined as a person or entity that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries controls or is controlled by, or under common control with Seller or Shareholder) except as set forth on Schedule 4.2. Seller owns or leases all of the assets which are utilized to carry on the Business and neither Seller nor any third person owns or controls or has any interest, direct or indirect, in any other entity necessary for carrying on such Business.

4.3 Organizational Documents. True and complete copies of the Seller’s certificate of incorporation by-laws, minutes, stock ledger and any other organizational documents, together with all amendments thereto to date, have been delivered to Buyer by Seller, and are complete and correct as of the date hereof. Seller is not in default in any respect in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the terms or conditions of any of such organizational documents.

4.4 No Conflicts; Consents.

(a) Neither the ownership nor use of the Purchased Assets nor the conduct of the Business conflicts with the rights of any other person or entity or violates, or with or without the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, will violate, conflict with or result in a default, breach or termination, right to accelerate, loss of rights under, or give rise to a lien, any term or provision of (a) any of the Assumed Agreements, (b) any mortgage, indenture, deed of trust or Encumbrance, lease, license or agreement or (c) any law, ordinance, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree to which Seller is a party or by which Seller, the Business or any of its properties, assets or operations may be bound or affected or which might materially adversely affect Seller, the Business or any such properties, assets or operations.

(b) No agreement, instrument or understanding, nor any judgment, writ, injunction, decree, order, law, rule or regulation to which Seller or Shareholder is a party or by which Seller or Shareholder or any of their respective properties are bound or affected, has been or will be violated or breached by the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the performance or satisfaction of the Transaction Documents or any other agreement or condition herein contained upon its part to be performed or satisfied by Seller or Shareholder. Except as disclosed on Schedule 4.4, no consents or other authorization (“Consents”) are required for the Seller’s and Shareholder’s execution, delivery, performance and satisfaction of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents and the assignment and assumption of the Assumed Agreements, and all such Consents shall have been obtained on or before Closing Date. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.4, each of the Assumed Agreements is freely assignable (subject to Seller obtaining any required Consents set forth on Schedule 4.4) without cost or additional obligation to Buyer, other than the performance of the obligations arising after Closing.

4.5 Ownership of Assets. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.5, Seller owns and has good and marketable title to all of the Purchased Assets, other than leaseholds referred to in Section 4.12, free and clear of any liens, claims, charges, taxes, mortgages, pledges, security interests, equities, encumbrances or rights of any kind in third parties (collectively, “Encumbrances”). Seller has obtained for each jurisdiction in which Seller has property UCC-1 and lien, judgment and tax searches for Seller, true and correct copies of which are attached hereto as a part of Schedule 4.5. Such lien searches are accurate and complete and there are no Encumbrances on the Business or the Purchased Assets except as disclosed by such searches. All property and assets owned or utilized by Seller in the Business are in good operating condition and repair (except for ordinary wear and tear), free from any defects (except such minor defects as do not interfere with the use thereof in the conduct of the normal operations), have been maintained in accordance with good industry standards and operating manuals, licenses agreements and the like, and are sufficient to carry on the Business as presently conducted. Upon delivery by Seller to Buyer of the Transaction Documents, Buyer will receive good and marketable title to the Business and the Purchased Assets, free and clear of any Encumbrances.

4.6 Inventory. All items of Inventory consist of items of a quality and quantity usable and saleable in the normal course of Seller’s Business at regular prices and terms within ninety (90) days of the Closing Date and are accurately reflected on Schedule 4.7. The book

values of the Inventory do not exceed the replacement costs as of the Closing of the usable and saleable items therein, and the book values at which such inventories are carried reflect the inventory valuation policy consistently applied by Seller, the policy being to value Inventory on the basis of the cost (first-in, first-out).

4.7 Financial Statements. (a) Seller has delivered to Buyer: (A) the unaudited balance sheet of Seller, and the related statements of income and expense, retained earnings and cash flows, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, and (B) a balance sheet and profit and loss statement of Seller as of March 31, 2007 (“Interim Date”) and a profit and loss statement for the period January 1, 2007 through March 31, 2007, each compiled and reviewed by Seller’s independent certified public accountant (collectively, the financial statements referred to in subparagraphs (A) and (B) above are referred to as the “Financial Statements”). The Financial Statements are true, correct and complete in all material respects and have been prepared in a manner to fairly and accurately present the assets, liabilities, results of operations and equity of Seller on an accrual basis at such dates and for such periods thereof, all in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in effect from time to time within the United States of America (“GAAP”), consistently applied during the periods involved. There has not been any change since the Interim Date which has affected materially or adversely the results of the operations of Seller, and, no fact or condition exists, which might cause any material adverse change in the operations or financial condition of Seller. Schedule 4.7 sets forth all contingent liabilities or losses relating to the Business not specifically described in the Financial Statements and which are reasonably anticipated to exceed $5,000 individually or in the aggregate. Seller has disclosed to Buyer all material facts relating to the preparation of the Financial Statements, including the basis of accounting for affiliated transactions.

(i) any breach by Buyer of its representations or warranties hereunder;

(ii) the nonperformance or breach of any of Buyer’s agreements, covenants or obligations under this Agreement or the other agreements contemplated herein;

(iii) the Assumed Obligations; and

(iv) any actions, suits, proceedings, claims and demands incident to any of the foregoing.

8.5 Indemnification Procedures.

(a) In the event that any party entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article VIII (an “Indemnified Party”) desires to make a claim against any other party hereto (the “Indemnifying Party”) in connection with any Loss for which it may seek indemnification hereunder (an “Asserted Liability”), the Indemnified Party shall give notice (a “Claims Notice”) to the Indemnifying Party of the Asserted Liability and of its claims of indemnification with respect thereto. The Claims Notice shall describe the Asserted Liability in reasonable detail and shall indicate the amount of the Losses that have been or may be suffered by an Indemnified Party in connection with such Asserted Liability.

(b) If the facts giving rise to the Asserted Liability shall involve any actual or threatened claim or demand by any third party against any Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled, but shall not be required, to participate (at its

own expense) in the defense thereof, or the Indemnifying Party may elect to take charge of and control the defense of such Third Party Claim, provided that the Indemnifying Party shall pursue the defense of such claim in good faith by appropriate actions or proceedings promptly taken or instituted and diligently pursued and using counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party must notify the Indemnified Party of such an election promptly after receipt of a Claims Notice. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate (at its own expense) in said defense; if the Indemnifying Party does not so elect to assume the defense, the Indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Party for all reasonable fees, costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with a Third Party Claim indemnifiable under Section 8.2 or 8.4, as the case may be.

(c) Each party shall cooperate and shall cause its officers and employees to cooperate in the defense or prosecution of any claim for which indemnification is sought hereunder and furnish such records, information and testimony and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials, and appeals as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith.

(d) No Indemnifying Party will be subject to any liability for any settlement made without its written consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If an Indemnified Party refuses to consent to a bona fide offer of settlement which provides solely for a monetary payment which the Indemnifying Party wishes to accept, the Indemnified Party may continue to pursue such matter, free of any participation by the Indemnifying Party, at the sole expense of the Indemnified Party. In such event, the obligation of the Indemnifying Party shall be limited to the amount of the offer of settlement which the Indemnified Party refused to accept plus the costs and expenses of the Indemnified Party prior to the date the Indemnifying Party notified the Indemnified Party of the offer of settlement.

(e) Payment of any final determined amount of liability shall be made by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party within five (5) business days of the date of notice from the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party that such amount is due.
