NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the covenants, agreements, representations and warranties set forth herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties to this Agreement hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

AGREEMENT TO PURCHASE AND SELL SHARES

1.1           Agreement to Purchase and Sell Shares.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Shareholders agree to sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser agrees to purchase from the Shareholders, the Shares, which represent 100% of the fully-diluted equity of the Company, for (a) an aggregate purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) of U.S.$30,000,000, which, as initially adjusted pursuant to Section 1.2(b), shall consist of (i) cash consideration (the “Cash

1

Consideration”) in the amount of U.S.$26,715,385 and (ii) 263,467 shares of Parent’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Parent Shares”), as determined by dividing (A) U.S.$2,709,630 by (B) the Average Closing Price (the “Share Consideration”) and (b) the Additional Consideration (as defined below), if any.  The Share Consideration and Cash Consideration, subject to further adjustment as provided in Section 1.2(d) (such amount, as adjusted, the “Aggregate Initial Consideration”), shall be allocated to the Shareholders and paid to the Shareholders and into the Warranty Escrow Fund (as defined below) as provided on Schedule II attached hereto.  For purposes of this Agreement, the “Average Closing Price” means $10.28.

1.2           Adjustment to Aggregate Initial Consideration.

(a)           The amount of Aggregate Initial Consideration paid to the Shareholders shall be subject to downward adjustment, on a dollar for dollar basis, to the extent that Working Capital is less than SEK 27 million as of the Closing Date.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Working Capital” is defined as (i) total current assets (as defined under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”)) of the Company and its subsidiaries on a combined basis, less (ii) the sum of (A) total liabilities (as defined under U.S. GAAP) of the Company and its subsidiaries on a combined basis, (B) all fees, costs and expenses incurred by the Company or the Shareholders, including legal fees, financial advisor fees, including, without limitation, the type described in Section 2.19, employee bonuses and severance benefits, in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, as set forth on Schedule 1.2, (C) costs associated with an incentive scheme for employees of the Company in an amount set forth on Schedule 1.2 and (D) all of the fees, costs and expenses associated with preparing and filing any Tax Returns (as defined in Section 2.8) not timely filed prior to the Closing Date and paying any Pre-Closing Taxes (as defined in Section 7.2(l)) (including, in each case, accountant’s and attorney’s fees and the amount of any required payments for Pre-Closing Taxes, any penalties and any interest thereon).  With respect to Schedule 1.2, for purposes of the Preliminary Working Capital Estimate, such schedule shall be estimated by the Company, but, for purposes of the Working Capital Statement, the Company shall provide Parent with a final Schedule 1.2 no later than five days after the Closing Date.

(b)           The Company has prepared and delivered to Parent prior to the Closing an estimate of the Working Capital as of June 30, 2004 (using the items described in clauses (B) and (C) of Section 1.2(a) as reflected on the preliminary Schedule 1.2), as set forth in Schedule III (the “Preliminary Working Capital Estimate”).  The Parties have agreed that the Preliminary Working Capital Estimate is SEK 22,597,285.  The Aggregate Initial Consideration payable to the Shareholders pursuant to Section 1.1 has been reduced by U.S.$574,985, on a dollar for dollar basis by the difference between SEK 27 million and such Preliminary Working Capital Estimate.

(c)           Within 30 days after the Closing, Parent shall calculate at Parent’s expense and deliver to the Shareholder Agent a report (the “Working Capital Statement”) which shall include a calculation of the Working Capital as of the Closing Date.  The Working Capital Statement shall be signed by an executive officer of Parent and shall not be subject to revision or modification, except as provided immediately below.  The Shareholder Agent shall be entitled to

2

inspect the books and records of the Company and its subsidiaries upon which the calculations reflected in the Working Capital Statement were made and any and all other books and records of the Company and its subsidiaries which may be of relevance to the Working Capital Statement and the determination of the Working Capital (the “Relevant Working Capital Records”), by providing written notice to Parent of such request within five Business Days (as defined below) after the Working Capital Statement has been received by the Shareholder Agent.  If the Shareholder Agent does not deliver such a written request within such five Business Day period, the calculations and facts set forth in the Working Capital Statement shall be deemed irrevocably approved by the Shareholder Agent and shall be conclusive and binding upon the Shareholder Agent and each Shareholder.  If the Shareholder Agent does deliver a written inspection request within five Business Days after the Working Capital Statement is delivered, Purchaser shall cause the Company to provide reasonable access to the Relevant Working Capital Records during normal business hours no later than five Business Days after the Shareholder Agent delivers the written inspection request.  The Shareholder Agent shall have a period of fifteen Business Days (as defined below) after the date access to the Relevant Working Capital Records is given to review and analyze the same, and within five Business Days after the end of such fifteen Business Day inspection period shall give Parent written notice describing in reasonable detail the nature and amount of any purported differences between the amounts and facts reflected in the Working Capital Statement and those determined in good faith through the Shareholder Agent’s review.  If the Shareholder Agent fails to give proper written notice to Parent of any purported differences within the required period, the calculations and facts set forth in the Working Capital Statement shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally approved by the Shareholder Agent and shall be conclusive and binding upon the Shareholder Agent and each Shareholder.  If the Shareholder Agent does provide written notice of purported differences within the required period, the Shareholder Agent and an authorized representative of Parent shall promptly seek in good faith to resolve any purported differences and agree to the appropriate amount of Additional Consideration payable to the Shareholders.  If the parties are unable to come to a good faith resolution within fifteen Business Days after commencing such good faith discussions, either Parent or the Shareholder Agent may commence an arbitration in accordance with Section 9.8 to resolve the issue.  The Working Capital as of the Closing as finally determined pursuant to this Section 1.2(c) shall be referred to herein as the “Final Working Capital.”

(d)           To the extent that the Final Working Capital is less than the Preliminary Working Capital Estimate, the Aggregate Initial Consideration payable to the Shareholders pursuant to Section 1.1 shall be reduced on a dollar for dollar basis by such shortfall and Parent shall be entitled to withdraw such shortfall from the Warranty Escrow Fund pursuant to a joint written instruction executed by Parent and the Shareholder Agent.  To the extent that the Final Working Capital is greater than the Preliminary Working Capital Estimate, the Aggregate Initial Consideration payable to the Shareholders pursuant to Section 1.1 shall be increased on a dollar for dollar basis by an amount equal to difference between the Preliminary Working Capital Estimate and the Final Working Capital (provided that for the purposes of the calculation of such difference, if the Final Working Capital is greater than SEK 27 million, such Final Working Capital shall be deemed to be SEK 27 million) and, within five Business Days after the final determination of Final Working Capital, Parent shall pay by wire transfer of immediately

3

available funds in U.S. Dollars the amount of such difference to the Consideration Escrow Agent (as defined below) for distribution to the Shareholders.

(e)           Parent agrees to (i) satisfy any and all expenses set forth on the final Schedule 1.2 on behalf of the Company or the Shareholders, as the case may be, following the Closing Date and (ii) use the amount of costs allocated to the incentive scheme for employees of the Company set forth on the final Schedule 1.2 for such incentive scheme following the Closing Date.

1.3           Establishment of Escrow; Interest and Dividends.

(a)           On the Closing Date, on behalf of the Shareholders, Purchaser shall deposit into a general escrow account established pursuant to Article VII below (the “Warranty Escrow Fund”) a portion of the Aggregate Initial Consideration in an amount equal to U.S$4,413,752 in the aggregate, of which U.S$4,007,308 shall be in cash and U.S.$406,444 shall be in Parent Shares from the Share Consideration, or 39,520 Parent Shares (such cash and Parent Shares, as from time to time in the Warrant Escrow Fund, the “Escrow Amount”).  The Escrow Amount, and any interest earned thereon shall be maintained in a separate account and disbursed as provided in the Escrow Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Warranty Escrow Agreement”) and in Article VII of this Agreement.  The portion of the Escrow Amount deposited on behalf of each Shareholder shall be in proportion to the percentage of the Aggregate Initial Consideration ultimately received by each such Shareholder (such respective percentages, the “Proportionate Interests”).  For purposes of determining the value of any Parent Shares included in the Warranty Escrow Fund, each such share shall be deemed to have a value equal to the Average Closing Price.

(b)           Any interest accruing on the Escrow Amount shall be held in the Warranty Escrow Fund and available to cover claims for Losses until distributed upon termination of the Warranty Escrow Fund, as provided in Article VII.  Any such interest shall be distributed to Parent (to the extent earned or paid with respect to cash in the Warranty Escrow Fund distributed to Parent to cover Losses pursuant to Article VII) or based on the Proportionate Interests to the Shareholders (to the extent earned or paid with respect to cash ultimately distributed to such Shareholders upon termination of the Warranty Escrow Fund), such that any interest earned on any cash in the Warranty Escrow Fund generally follows the ultimate recipient of the cash on which such interest was earned.

1.4           Distribution of the Aggregate Initial Consideration.

(a)           At the Closing, each Shareholder shall deliver to Purchaser certificates (“Certificates”) representing all Shares held by such Shareholder, duly endorsed in blank.  Upon surrender of such Certificates to Purchaser and concurrently with the deposit of a portion of the Aggregate Initial Consideration into the Escrow Fund as provided in Section 1.3, on the Closing Date, Purchaser shall (i) pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds an aggregate of U.S.$22,708,078, which will be distributed on behalf of the Shareholders to Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken AB (publ.), a bank duly incorporated and organized under the laws of Sweden, as the Shareholder’s escrow agent (the “Consideration Escrow Agent”) and the Shareholders as

4

set forth on Schedule II and (ii) deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Consideration Escrow Agent and the Shareholders as set forth on Schedule II certificates representing 223,947 Parent Shares.  Through the timely execution of such payment and delivery in accordance with Schedule II, and the payments into the Warranty Escrow Fund pursuant to Section 1.3(a), Purchaser will be deemed to have fulfilled its obligation as regards payment of Aggregate Initial Consideration and the Purchaser and Parent shall have no obligation or liability whatsoever for the allocation of the Aggregate Initial Consideration among the Shareholders.

(b)           The Shareholders shall, on or before the Closing Date, enter into an escrow agreement pursuant to which the Consideration Escrow Agent shall keep the deposited amount in an interest bearing clients’ funds account on behalf of the Shareholders, to be paid out only upon either (i) a joint request in writing from the Shareholders or (ii) a request in writing from any Shareholder, if supported by final judgment or arbitration award binding upon the relevant parties, as set forth in the escrow agreement.  The Purchaser and Parent shall have no rights or obligations in relation to such escrow agreement or the Consideration Escrow Agent.

(c)           Each Shareholder by executing and delivering this Agreement hereby irrevocably acknowledges and agrees that upon the payment of any Aggregate Initial Consideration to the Consideration Escrow Agent and the Shareholders as set forth on Schedule II, none of Parent, Purchaser, the Company or any of their affiliates shall have any further liability or obligation to any Shareholder with respect to such Aggregate Initial Consideration.  Each Shareholder acknowledges and agrees that he, she or it will not raise any claim regarding any alleged failure of Parent or Purchaser to pay the Aggregate Initial Consideration; provided that the Aggregate Initial Consideration has been paid by Purchaser pursuant to Section 1.3(a) and Section 1.4(a).  In the event that any Shareholder should raise such a claim against Parent or Purchaser, the Shareholders hereby agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify and hold harmless Parent and Purchaser from such unpermitted claim and to promptly defend Parent and Purchaser against any action for which Parent and Purchaser have been so indemnified and pay all Losses (as defined below) as well as other reasonable compensation due to such claim raised or action brought against Parent or Purchaser.

1.5           Lock-Up of Share Consideration.  Each Shareholder receiving Share Consideration shall execute and deliver to Purchaser and Parent a lock-up agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C with respect to all Parent Shares received by such Shareholder.

1.6           Additional Consideration.

(a)           As additional consideration for the Shares, with respect to the fiscal year of the Company ending on April 30, 2005, Purchaser shall, subject to the provisions of Section 1.6(d), distribute to the Consideration Escrow Agent on the Distribution Date (as defined below) cash and Parent Shares equal to the Additional Consideration, if any.  The cash and Parent Shares that comprise the Additional Consideration shall be in the same proportion as the Cash Consideration and Share Consideration pursuant to Section 1.1 and the number of Parent Shares comprising Additional Consideration, to be distributed to the same Shareholders initially receiving Share Consideration, shall be determined by dividing (A) the dollar value of the portion of the Aggregate Consideration to be paid in Parent Shares by (B) the weighted average closing

5

price of Parent Shares over the five consecutive trading days up to and including the trading day immediately preceding the Distribution Date, but in no event less than $9.50.  The cash and Parent Shares comprising the Additional Consideration shall be allocated to the Shareholders and paid to the Consideration Escrow Agent, the Shareholders and into the Warranty Escrow Fund in the same proportions as provided on Schedule II attached hereto with respect to the Aggregate Initial Consideration.  The Parent Shares that comprise the Additional Consideration shall be paid to the Shareholders for, and be allocated to, the same Shares as the Share Consideration.  For the purposes of this Agreement, “Additional Consideration” shall mean:

(i)            an amount expressed in United Stated Dollars equal to (A) U.S.$1.00 (One United States Dollar) multiplied by (B) the number determined by dividing (1) the amount, if any, of EBITDA (as defined below) of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2005 in excess of SEK 24.4 million by (2) SEK 2.033; provided, that such amount shall in any event be limited to a maximum of U.S.$3,000,000; plus

(ii)           the lesser of (A) an amount expressed in United States Dollars equal to (1) U.S.$1.00 (One United States Dollar) multiplied by (2) the number determined by dividing (x) the amount, if any, of EBITDA of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2005 in excess of SEK 24.4 million by (y) SEK 2.033 or (B) an amount expressed in United States Dollars equal to (1) U.S.$1.00 (One United States Dollar) multiplied by (2) the number determined by dividing (x) the amount, if any, of Revenues (as defined below) of the Company for the twelve months ended April 30, 2005 in excess of SEK 84.4 million by (y) SEK 7.033; provided, that such amount shall in any event be limited to a maximum of U.S.$3,000,000.

(b)           For the purposes of this Agreement (i) “EBITDA” shall mean earnings before interest, taxes on income, depreciation and amortization as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP and (ii) “Revenues” shall mean revenues as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

(c)           Each of Parent and Purchaser agrees that, for the period following the Closing through April 30, 2005 (i) it will not take any action to change or affect the cash funding requirements in the 2004/2005 budget attached hereto as Schedule 1.6(c)(ii) and (ii) in determining EBITDA and Revenues, the Company will be treated as a separate business unit, and any charges or expenses of Parent or Purchaser not related to, or reasonably necessary for, the operation of the Company will be excluded.  In addition, Parent and Purchaser agree to (A) act in good faith in the operation of the business of the Company and its subsidiaries after the Closing through April 30, 2005 with respect to the ability of the Company to maximize EBITDA and grow Revenues and (B) notify the Shareholder Agent of any change to the accounting policies of the Company and its subsidiaries during the period until the Statement (as defined below) has been prepared.

(d)           Notwithstanding the foregoing, on the Distribution Date, on behalf of the Shareholders, Purchaser shall deposit into the Warranty Escrow Fund an amount equal to 15% of the Additional Consideration, in cash and Parent Shares on a pro rata basis, which shall be added

6

to the Escrow Amount for all purposes under this Agreement and shall be disbursed as provided in Article VII.

(e)           Within 60 days after the end of the Company’s fiscal year ending April 30, 2005, Parent shall calculate at Parent’s expense and deliver to the Shareholder Agent a report (the “Statement”) which shall include (i) the audited income statement of the Company and its subsidiaries for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2005, (ii) a calculation of the amount of Additional Consideration, if any, resulting therefrom and (iii) a detailed description of any special adjustments or extraordinary items that affected the Additional Consideration calculation, if any.  The Statement shall be signed by an executive officer of Parent and shall not be subject to revision or modification, except as provided immediately below.  The Shareholder Agent shall be entitled to inspect the books and records of the Company and its subsidiaries upon which the calculations reflected in the Statement were made and any and all other books and records of the Company and its subsidiaries which may be of relevance to the Statement and the determination of the EBITDA and Revenues of the Company and its subsidiaries on a combined basis (the “Relevant Books and Records”), by providing written notice to Parent of such request within five Business Days (as defined below) after the Statement is delivered.  If the Shareholder Agent does not deliver such a written request within such five Business Day period, the calculations and facts set forth in the Statement shall be deemed irrevocably approved by the Shareholder Agent and shall be conclusive and binding upon the Shareholder Agent and each Shareholder.  If the Shareholder Agent does deliver a written inspection request within five Business Days after the Statement is received by the Shareholder Agent, Purchase shall cause the Company to provide reasonable access to the Relevant Books and Records during normal business hours no later than two Business Days after the Shareholder Agent delivers the written inspection request.  The Shareholder Agent shall have a period of five Business Days (as defined below) after the date access to the Relevant Books and Records is given to review and analyze the same, and within five Business Days after the end of such five Business Day inspection period shall give Parent written notice describing in reasonable detail the nature and amount of any purported differences between the amounts and facts reflected in the Statement and those determined in good faith through the Shareholder Agent’s review.  If the Shareholder Agent fails to give proper written notice to Parent of any purported differences within the required period, the calculations and facts set forth in the Statement shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally approved by the Shareholder Agent and shall be conclusive and binding upon the Shareholder Agent and each Shareholder.  If the Shareholder Agent does provide written notice of purported differences within the required period, the Shareholder Agent and an authorized representative of Parent shall promptly seek in good faith to resolve any purported differences and agree to the appropriate amount of Additional Consideration payable to the Shareholders.  If the parties are unable to come to a good faith resolution within five Business Days after commencing such good faith discussions, either Parent or the Shareholder Agent may commence an arbitration in accordance with Section 9.8 to resolve the issue.  Parent shall be entitled to withhold such portion of the Additional Consideration subject to the Statement in dispute during the pendency of any dispute relating thereto and shall be entitled to deposit into the Warranty Escrow Fund an amount equal to 15% of the Additional Consideration, as determined by Parent and set forth in the Statement, which shall be added to the Escrow Amount for all purposes under this Agreement and shall be disbursed as provided in Article VII.  Any Additional Consideration shall be paid by

7

Parent within ten Business Days after the earlier of (i) the date that the Shareholder Agent approves, or is deemed to approve, the Statement and (ii) the date that any differences properly asserted by the Shareholder Agent are resolved (whether through good faith discussions, through a legal action not subject to appeal or other means mutually agreed by the parties) (such date, the “Distribution Date”).

(f)            Each Shareholder by executing and delivering this Agreement hereby irrevocably acknowledges and agrees that upon the final payment of any Additional Consideration to the Consideration Escrow Agent, none of Parent, Purchaser, the Company or any of their affiliates shall have any further liability or obligation to any Shareholder with respect to such Additional Consideration.  The rights of each Shareholder to receive any Additional Consideration are personal to such Shareholder and may not, except for between the Shareholders, be sold, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise transferred (and no participation or other rights may be granted therein), other than by will or the laws of descent or distribution or any general pledge or encumbrance of assets of a Shareholders (such as a floating charge) or with the consent of Parent (not to be unreasonably withheld).  Any attempted sale, pledge, hypothecation or other transfer (and any participation or grant of rights) in violation of this provision shall be null and void ab initio.

(g)           From the Closing Date through April 30, 2005, Parent shall cause the Company to furnish to the Shareholder Agent, within two Business Days following preparation thereof (and in any event within thirty calendar days after the end of each fiscal quarter), an unaudited balance sheet and unaudited income statement as of the end of such quarter.  The foregoing shall be in accordance with the books and records of the Company and its subsidiaries and shall fairly present the financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries as of the last day of the period then ended and for the period then ended.

1.7           Adjustment Events.  If, between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, the outstanding Parent Shares shall have been changed into or exchanged for a different number of shares or kind of shares of Parent or another corporation or entity by reason of any reclassification, split-up, stock dividend or any arrangement, amalgamation or similar statutory procedure (an “Adjustment Event”), then the Share Consideration shall be reasonably and equitably adjusted.  If the record date for any such Adjustment Event shall be prior to the Closing Date, as applicable, but the payment date therefor shall be subsequent to the Closing Date, as applicable, Parent shall take such action as shall be required so that on such payment date the applicable Shareholders shall be entitled to receive such number or kind of shares as such holder would have received as a result of such event if the record date therefor had been immediately after the Closing Date.

8

1.8           Closing.

(a)           Unless this Agreement is earlier terminated pursuant to Section 8.1, the closing of the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) will take place at the offices of Advokatfirman Vinge, Smålandsgatan 20, Stockholm, Sweden as promptly as practicable following the satisfaction or valid waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VI, unless another place or time is agreed in writing by Parent and the Shareholder Agent.  The date the Closing actually occurs is referred to as the “Closing Date.”

(b)           At the Closing:  (a) Parent and Purchaser shall deliver to the Shareholders the various certificates, instruments and documents and take the actions referenced in Section 6.2 and (b) the Shareholders shall deliver or shall cause the Company to deliver to Parent and Purchaser the various certificates, instruments and documents and take the actions referenced in Section 6.3.

(i)            The Company and its subsidiaries have properly filed with the appropriate tax authorities all Tax Returns they are required to have filed for all tax periods ending prior to the Closing Date.  All Tax Returns filed by the Company and its subsidiaries are true, correct and complete and all information required for a correct assessment of Taxes has been provided.  The Company and its subsidiaries are not in arrears with payment of any Taxes due to any Tax authority.

(ii)           The Company and its subsidiaries have timely paid all Taxes that have become due or payable (whether or not shown on a Tax Return) and have adequately reserved in the Company Financials in accordance with Swedish GAAP for all Taxes (whether or not shown on any Tax Return) that have accrued but are not yet due or payable as of the date hereof.  The Company and its subsidiaries have no present or contingent liability for Taxes, other than Taxes reflected on the Company Financials or incurred in the ordinary course of business since the date of the Current Balance Sheet in amounts consistent with prior years adjusted to reflect changes in operating results of the Company and its subsidiaries.  The Company and its subsidiaries will not be liable for any additional Tax pertaining to the period before the Accounts Date.

INDEMNIFICATION AND ESCROW

7.1           Survival of Representations and Warranties.  All representations and warranties in this Agreement or in any instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Closing and continue until the one –year anniversary of the Closing Date; provided, however, that the representations and warranties contained in Section 2.34 shall survive until the five-year anniversary of the Closing Date.  Nothing in this Section 7.1 shall effect the provisions regarding the termination and distribution of the Warranty Escrow Fund in Section 7.2(d).  No claim under this Agreement may be brought by Parent or Purchaser against a Shareholder unless the

42

Shareholder Agent shall have received from Parent or Purchaser written notice containing such details as may be reasonably available to Parent or Purchaser as to the nature and the estimated amount of the claim within three months of such party becoming aware of the Losses.

7.2           Indemnity and Escrow Arrangements.

(a)           Indemnification.

(i)            Each Shareholder hereby agrees to jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless Parent and its affiliates, by way of a reduction of the Purchase Price or the repayment of a portion of the Purchase Price, as the case may be, from and against any and all claims, losses, costs, expenses, liabilities, judgments, fines, awards, penalties, sanctions or other damages, including any settlement costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees, and interest at a rate of 3% annually on any cash disbursements made by Parent or its affiliates in connection with any of the foregoing (any and all such amounts, collectively, “Losses”) which Parent or any of its affiliates suffers or incurs by reason, directly or indirectly, of:

(A)          any inaccuracy in or breach by the Shareholders of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Shareholders contained herein or in any Ancillary Agreement or any document or instrument delivered pursuant hereto or thereto (other than with respect to the several representations and warranties of each Shareholder provided in Section 2.33 through Section 2.36);

(B)           any misrepresentation by the Shareholders made in or pursuant to this Agreement (other than with respect to the several representations and warranties of each Shareholder provided in Section 2.33 through Section 2.36);

(C)           any inaccuracy in the calculation, or the actual amount, of the Working Capital;

(D)          any costs of enforcing this Agreement and any rights and remedies available to Parent hereunder or at law;

(E)           any Pre-Closing Taxes (as defined in Section 7.2(l));

(F)           any claims made by a Shareholder in violation of Section 1.4(c).

(ii)           In addition, each Shareholder, hereby agrees to severally, but not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless Parent and its affiliates from and against any and all Losses which Parent or any of its affiliates suffers or incurs by reason, directly or indirectly, of (A) any inaccuracy in or breach by such Shareholder of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of such Shareholder contained in Section 2.33 through Section 2.36 and (B) any misrepresentation by such Shareholder made in or pursuant to Section 2.33 through Section 2.36.

(iii)          For purposes of this Article VII “Losses” also shall include a reasonable amount of legal fees and costs to be advanced to Parent in connection with defending

43

against actions or claims by third parties.  Such legal costs and expenses are expressly authorized to be advanced to Parent reasonably in advance of Parent actually incurring such Losses; provided, however, that Parent shall promptly refund to the Escrow Fund or the Shareholders, as applicable, any amounts so advanced and not subsequently applied for such purposes.

(b)           Warranty Escrow Fund.  At the Closing, without any act of any Shareholder and on behalf of the Shareholders, Purchaser will deposit the Escrow Amount into an escrow account with Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken AB (publ.), a bank duly incorporated and organized under the laws of Sweden, as escrow agent (the “Warranty Escrow Agent”), such deposit to establish and constitute the Warranty Escrow Fund.  The Warranty Escrow Fund shall be governed by the terms set forth in this Section 7.2 and by the Warranty Escrow Agreement and shall be maintained at the Shareholders’ joint and several cost and expense.  The Warranty Escrow Amount shall be deposited into an interest bearing account and any interest earned thereon shall be added to the Warranty Escrow Fund and available to cover Losses of Parent and its affiliates hereunder or to be paid to the Shareholders or Consideration Escrow Agent, as the case may be.  Any such interest earned on the cash in the Warranty Escrow Fund shall be applied first to pay any fees, costs and expenses of the Warranty Escrow Agent and maintaining and disbursing the Warranty Escrow Fund and otherwise will be treated for all tax purposes as income of the party or parties to whom such cash ultimately is distributed (subject to subparagraph (d) below).

(c)           Recourse to the Escrow Fund; Limitations.

(i)            Parent, on behalf of itself and its affiliates, shall be entitled to withdraw cash from the Escrow Amount (and any interest thereon) to compensate Parent and its affiliates for any Losses which Parent or any of its affiliates suffers or incurs, as provided above.  Notwithstanding this Article VII or anything to the contrary herein, nothing in this Agreement shall limit or waive the liability of the Shareholders for any Losses or damages incurred or sustained by Parent if the transactions contemplated hereby do not close, and, in such event, the initial establishment and availability of the Warranty Escrow Fund provided herein shall not in any way limit or act as a waiver of any other rights or remedies available to Parent and its affiliates hereunder or at law or in equity, all of which are cumulative and not exclusive.  Parent may not receive any amounts from the Warranty Escrow Fund unless and until Parent delivers an Officer’s Certificate (as defined in subparagraph (e) below) to the Warranty Escrow Agent identifying the nature and amount of Losses being asserted, as described in subparagraph (e) below.

(ii)           Except in the case of (A) indemnification under Sections 7.2(a)(i)(C), (E) or (F) or Section 7.2(a)(ii), (B) Losses arising out of or in connection with a breach of the representations in Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.4 and 2.19 and (C) as provided in clause (iv) below, no Shareholder shall have any obligation to indemnify Parent under Section 7.2(a)  unless and until the aggregate of all Losses suffered by Parent and its affiliates hereunder exceeds $300,000, whereupon the Shareholders shall be liable to indemnify Parent and its affiliates for the amount of all Losses incurred by Parent and its affiliates.

44

(iii)          Except in the case of (A) indemnification under Section 7.2(a)(i)(F) or Section 7.2(a)(ii) and (B) as provided in clause (iv) below, Parent’s sole and exclusive recourse for Losses recoverable pursuant to this Article VII shall be the Escrow Amount (and any interest thereon).

(iv)          The liability for each Shareholder with respect to any Losses shall be limited to such Shareholder’s Proportionate Interest of such Losses, whether paid from the Warranty Escrow Fund or otherwise, and Parent shall not be entitled to recover Losses from any Shareholder in excess of the portion of the Purchase Price ultimately received by such Shareholder.  Nothing herein shall limit any Shareholder’s obligations to Parent or Purchaser, as the case may be, for Losses incurred by Parent or Purchaser, as the case may be, resulting solely from fraud, intentional misrepresentation or actual concealment (collectively Sw. svek or bedrägeri) as described in clause 30 of the Swedish Contracts Act (Sw. Avtalslagen) or in Ch. 9 § 1 of the Swedish Criminal Code (Sw. Brottsbalken) committed by such Shareholder.

(v)           No claim shall be brought by Parent, Purchaser or the Company or its subsidiaries against a Shareholder, nor shall a Shareholder be liable to Parent, Purchaser or the Company or its subsidiaries, as the case may be, for a claim (A) to the extent that Parent had “knowledge” of the breach underlying such claim; provided, that, for the purposes of this Section 7.2(c)(v)(A), Parent shall be deemed to have “knowledge” only of those items expressly and specifically set forth on the Company Schedule and with respect to the Due Diligence Material as set forth in the preamble to Article II; provided further that this clause (A) shall not apply with respect to Sections 7.2(a)(i)(C), (E) or (F), (B) related to any Loss that occurs as a result of any legislation that takes effect retrospectively or any legislation not in effect as of the Closing Date, (C) related to any consequential, indirect, special or incidental damages or loss of profits, (D) to the extent a specific reserve has been provided with respect to such on the Financials Statements and the Losses in connection with such claim have not been first applied against such reserve or (E) related to any Losses suffered by Parent or the Purchaser that are not in connection with Sections 2.33 through 2.36 or resulting from third party claims directed toward Parent or the Purchaser.  In addition, no Shareholder shall be liable to Parent, Purchaser or the Company or its subsidiaries, as the case may be, for Losses for which funds are recovered pursuant to insurance policies of the Company in effect and fully paid for as of the Closing Date.

(d)           Termination and Distribution of Warranty Escrow Fund.  The Warranty Escrow Fund shall terminate on the one –year anniversary of the Closing; provided, however, that such portion of the Warranty Escrow Fund, which in the reasonable judgment of Parent is necessary to cover any unsatisfied or disputed Losses specified in any Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Warranty Escrow Agent at or prior to termination of the Warranty Escrow Fund shall remain in the Warranty Escrow Fund (and the Warranty Escrow Fund shall remain in existence) until all such claims have been satisfied or resolved.  As soon after the scheduled expiration of the Warranty Escrow Fund as all claims for Losses have been satisfied or resolved, the Warranty Escrow Agent shall deliver the remaining portion of the Warranty Escrow Fund to the Shareholders in accordance with their respective Proportionate Interests therein; provided that, in the event that Losses with respect to the indemnification under Section 7.2(a)(ii) are recovered by Parent or its affiliates from the Escrow Amount, such amounts shall be credited solely against amounts, if any, otherwise payable from the Escrow Amount to the Shareholder

45

severally liable for such Losses.  Parent and its affiliates shall have no obligations or responsibilities with respect to taxable income earned on cash amounts in the Warrant Escrow Fund, and any Taxes with respect to such income shall be the sole responsibility of the Shareholders.

(e)           Claims Upon Warranty Escrow Fund.  With respect to any claims made by Parent against the Warranty Escrow, Parent shall act reasonably and in good faith.  In order to make a claim for Losses pursuant to this Article VII, Parent shall deliver to Warranty Escrow Agent and Shareholder Agent a certificate signed by any authorized officer of Parent (an “Officer’s Certificate”): (i) stating that Parent has paid, suffered or properly accrued or reasonably anticipates that it will pay, suffer or accrue Losses; (ii) specifying in reasonable detail the individual items of Losses included in the amount so stated, the date each such item was paid, suffered or accrued, or the basis for such anticipated Losses; (iii) the nature of the Losses to which such item is related; and (iv) the amount of Losses Parent seeks from the Warranty Escrow Fund; provided, however, that the sources of recovery specified by Parent as provided in clause (iv) shall not be irrevocable, and Parent may seek recovery from different sources or different amounts by a written supplemental notice to the Warranty Escrow Agent and Shareholder Agent.  Parent shall not be estopped by any estimate it may make of the amount of any anticipated or actual Losses claimed in any Officer’s Certificate, or the bases therefor, and Parent may submit amendments to any Officer’s Certificate, or additional Officer’s Certificates, in the event that actual or anticipated Losses, or the bases therefor, subsequently change or are determined to be different than represented in an Officer’s Certificate previously delivered.  Immediately upon receipt of such Officer’s Certificate, the Warranty Escrow Agent shall set aside an amount in the Warranty Escrow Fund equal to the aggregate amount of Losses claimed from the Warranty Escrow Fund in the Officer’s Certificate.  The Warranty Escrow Agent shall not distribute any amounts to Parent ( other than amounts advanced to Parent for legal costs and expenses pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(iii) above) out of the Warranty Escrow Fund for fifteen Business Days after the date of the Officer’s Certificate, unless Shareholder Agent authorizes the Warranty Escrow Agent to make such distribution.

(f)            Objections to Claims.  The Warranty Escrow Agent shall distribute to Parent from the Warranty Escrow Fund the full amount of actual Losses claimed in the Officer’s Certificate immediately after the fifteen Business Day waiting period specified in Section 7.2(e) expires (or at such earlier date as the Shareholder Agent may authorize), unless prior to such time the Shareholder Agent delivers a good faith, written objection to the claim made in the Officer’s Certificate (a “Notice of Dispute”) to the Warranty Escrow Agent with a copy to Parent.  The Notice of Dispute must include a reasonably detailed description of the basis of the objection, as well as the amount of Losses, if any, which the Shareholder Agent is not disputing.  Any undisputed Losses immediately shall be paid by the Warranty Escrow Agent.  If the Shareholder Agent does not timely deliver a Notice of Dispute (or such Notice of Dispute does not reasonably describe the basis of the objection), the Shareholder Agent shall be deemed to have irrevocably approved and consented to the payment of all Losses specified in the Officer’s Certificate (including any anticipated Losses, which will be deemed irrevocably by Shareholder Agent approved and shall be paid by the Warranty Escrow Agent or otherwise paid promptly upon their actual incurrence).  The Warranty Escrow Agent and Parent shall be entitled to rely on and act in accordance with any written or deemed approval and consent of the Shareholder Agent

46

in immediately distributing the amount of any actual Losses claimed in a specific Officer’s Certificate (and in subsequently distributing amounts to cover any anticipated Losses upon occurrence), even if the Shareholder Agent subsequently objects to or disputes the nature or amount of Losses.  At such time as the Escrow Fund has been depleted, all Shareholders automatically shall cease to have any claim on any portion of the Escrow Fund.

(g)           Resolution of Conflicts.

(i)            If the Shareholder Agent timely and properly delivers a Notice of Dispute, the Shareholder Agent and Parent shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights and responsibilities of the respective parties with respect to such Losses, unless the amount of such Losses relates to third party claims that are the subject of an ongoing proceeding before a court, arbitrator or Governmental Entity and remain to be definitively determined (in which case, Parent shall be entitled to periodically make a claim for any Losses associated with such proceeding (including an advance of legal fees and settlement costs), in addition to seeking recovery for the aggregate amount of actual Losses once determined, less any amounts previously paid during the pendency of the proceeding).  If the Shareholder Agent and Parent should agree as a result of their good faith efforts as to the appropriate amount and treatment of such Losses, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both parties and shall be furnished to the Warranty Escrow Agent (to the extent the Losses are to be paid from the Warranty Escrow Fund).  The Warranty Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on and act in accordance with any such memorandum and promptly shall distribute to Parent the specified amounts from the Warranty Escrow Fund (to the extent paid therefrom) to the extent consistent with the terms thereof.

(ii)           If no agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation, either Parent or the Shareholder Agent may initiate a proceeding pursuant to Section 9.8 hereto to seek enforcement of its rights or resolution of the dispute under this Section 7.2.  The Warranty Escrow Agent and Parent shall be entitled to act in accordance with any resulting arbitration award and make or withhold payments out of the Warranty Escrow Fund, as applicable, in accordance with any final arbitration award rendered pursuant to Section 9.8 hereto.

(h)           Appointment of Shareholder Agent; Power of Attorney.

(i)            Immediately upon the execution of this Agreement and without further act of any Shareholder, Spark Investors AB shall be appointed as the agent and attorney-in-fact (such person, and any successor or replacement thereof as provided below, the “Shareholder Agent”) for each Shareholder, with Andrew B. Caruthers as the contact individual at Spark Investors AB.  The Shareholder Agent shall be authorized, for and on behalf of all such Shareholders, to give and receive notices and communications, to authorize the distribution to Parent of monies from the Escrow Fund in satisfaction of claims for Losses by Parent, to object to such distributions, to agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and demand arbitration and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to such claims, and to take all other actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Shareholder Agent to accomplish the foregoing.  Such agency may be changed by the holders of a majority of the Proportionate Interests from time to time upon not less than thirty (30) days

47

prior written notice to the Parent certifying that the Shareholder Agent has been removed by the requisite vote or consent of such Shareholders, specifying the percentage of all Proportionate Interests so voted or consenting and specifying the substitute Shareholder Agent appointed by such Shareholders.  No bond shall be required of the Shareholder Agent, and the Shareholder Agent shall not receive any compensation for its services.  Notices or communications to or from the Shareholder Agent shall constitute notice to or from each of the Shareholders.

(ii)           The Shareholder Agent has a duty to act in good faith at all times, but shall not have any other duties or obligations towards Parent, Purchaser or the Company and its subsidiaries.  The Shareholders agree to jointly and severally indemnify the Shareholder Agent and hold the Shareholder Agent harmless against any Losses incurred by the Shareholder Agent (including reasonable fees and expenses of any legal counsel retained by the Shareholder Agent) arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the Shareholder Agent’s duties hereunder, unless such Losses directly result from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the Shareholder Agent.  Subject and subordinate in every respect to the prior right of Parent to make claims for Losses, Shareholder Agent shall have the right to recover from the Escrow Fund prior to any distribution to the Shareholders any reasonable fees, costs and expenses reasonably paid or incurred by the Shareholder Agent in acting as the Shareholder Agent hereunder; provided, however, that the Shareholder Agent may not recover any such amounts until the first anniversary of the Closing Date and only then to the extent that there are no claims for Losses asserted by Parent that remain unsatisfied or are pending resolution.

(i)            Actions of the Shareholder Agent.  Any decision, act, consent or instruction of the Shareholder Agent shall constitute a decision of all Shareholders and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon each of such Shareholders.  The Escrow Agent and Parent may rely upon any decision, act, consent or instruction of the Shareholder Agent as being the decision, act, consent or instruction of each and every such Shareholder.  The Escrow Agent, the Company and Parent hereby are relieved from any liability to any person for any acts done by them in accordance with such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Shareholder Agent.

(j)            Third-Party Claims.  If Parent becomes aware of any third-party claim which Parent believes may result in a claim for Losses against the Escrow Fund, Parent shall promptly notify the Shareholder Agent of such claim, and the Shareholder Agent shall be entitled, at its sole cost and expense without reimbursement from the Escrow Fund, to participate in any defense of such claim.  Parent shall reasonably consult with the Shareholder Agent prior to the settlement of any such claim and discuss with the Shareholder Agent in good faith any input regarding the claim and potential settlement the Shareholder Agent may have prior to any settlement (in each case, to the extent the terms thereof are not subject to a confidentiality agreement with the claimant).  After such consultation (or in the event that Parent is prohibited from consulting or the Shareholder Agent elects not to consult with Parent), Parent shall have the right to settle any such claim, even if the terms thereof are inconsistent with those proposed or advocated by the Shareholder Agent, so long as Parent makes such settlement reasonably and in good faith.  The settlement of any such third party claim shall be determinative of the amount of any claim for Losses against the Escrow Fund.  If the Shareholder Agent consents to the general economic terms of such settlement (such consent not to be unreasonably delayed, conditioned or

48

withheld) or elected not to consult with Parent with respect to any such settlement, no Shareholder shall have any power or authority to object under any provision of this Article VII to the settlement or the amount of any claim for Losses by Parent against the Escrow Fund or otherwise with respect to such settlement to the extent the amount of Losses claimed are consistent with the terms of such settlement.

(k)           Warranty Escrow Agent’s Duties.

(i)            The Warranty Escrow Agent shall hold and safeguard the Warranty Escrow Fund during its existence, shall treat such fund as a trust fund in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and shall hold, make distributions from and dispose of the Warranty Escrow Fund only in accordance with the terms hereof.  The Warranty Escrow Agent shall be obligated only for the performance of such duties as are specifically set forth herein, and as set forth in any additional written escrow instructions which the Warranty Escrow Agent may receive after the date of this Agreement which are signed by an officer of Parent and the Shareholder Agent, and may rely and shall be protected in relying or refraining from acting on any instrument reasonably believed by the Warranty Escrow Agent to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.

(ii)           The Warranty Escrow Agent hereby is expressly authorized to disregard any and all warnings given by any of the parties hereto or by any other person, excepting only joint orders by Parent and Shareholder Agent and orders or process of arbitration tribunals, courts of law or Governmental Entities, and hereby is expressly authorized to comply with and obey orders, judgments or decrees of any arbitration tribunals or Governmental Entities with respect to the Warranty Escrow Fund or the Warranty Escrow Agent’s duties.  In case the Warranty Escrow Agent obeys or complies in good faith with any such order, judgment or decree of any arbitration tribunal, court of law or Governmental Entity, the Warranty Escrow Agent shall not be liable to any of the parties hereto or to any other person by reason of such good faith compliance, notwithstanding any such order, judgment or decree being subsequently reversed, modified, annulled, set aside, vacated or found to have been entered without jurisdiction or proper authority.

(iii)          The Warranty Escrow Agent shall not be liable in any respect on account of the identity, authority or rights of the parties executing or delivering or purporting to execute or deliver this Agreement or any documents or papers deposited or called for hereunder.

(iv)          The Warranty Escrow Agent shall not be liable for the expiration of any rights under any statute of limitations with respect to this Agreement or any documents deposited with the Warranty Escrow Agent.

(v)           If any dispute or controversy arises between the parties to this Agreement with respect to the matters set forth in this Section 7.2¸ the Warranty Escrow Agent shall not be required to determine or decide the dispute or controversy or to take any action regarding the same.  The Warranty Escrow Agent may in such event hold all documents and cash in the Warranty Escrow Fund and may wait for the settlement of any such dispute or controversy through appropriate final legal proceedings.  The Warranty Escrow Agent is authorized to deposit

49

with the clerk or other authorized agent of the court all documents and cash amounts involved in the dispute or controversy at issue.  Upon making such deposit with the court, the Warranty Escrow Agent shall be fully released and discharged of and from any obligations with respect to the documents, cash or other matters deposited which are subject or relate to the dispute or controversy.

(l)            For purposes of this Agreement:

(i)            In determining whether there has been a breach of or inaccuracy of a representation in Section 2.8, the effect of any disclosure in the Company Schedule with respect to any or all such representations shall be disregarded; and

(ii)           “Pre-Closing Taxes” and Losses relating or with respect thereto shall mean (A) all Taxes for which the Company could be held liable that are due with respect to periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date, (B) all Taxes of the Company that are due with respect to periods (“Straddle Periods”) that include but do not end on the Closing Date to the extent attributable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending at the close of business on the Closing Date, (C) all fees, costs, penalties, and other expenses incurred in preparing and filing all Tax Returns with respect to any taxable period beginning prior to the Closing Date, and (D) other Losses incurred with respect to amounts described in clauses (A) through (C) of this sentence.  Taxes attributable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending at the close of business on the Closing Date shall be determined by assuming that the Straddle Period consisted of two taxable years or periods, one which ended at the close of business on the Closing Date and the other which began at the beginning of the day following the Closing Date, and items of income, gain, deduction, loss or credit, and state and local apportionment factors of the Company for the Straddle Period shall be allocated to the period ending on the close of business on the Closing Date on a “closing of the books basis” by assuming that the books of the Company were closed at the close of business on the Closing Date.  However, (x) exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis, such as the deduction for depreciation and (y) periodic taxes such real and personal property taxes shall be apportioned ratably between such periods on a daily basis.

53

9.4           Entire Agreement; Assignment.  This Agreement, the schedules and exhibits hereto, and the documents and instruments and other agreements among the parties hereto referenced herein: (a) constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the respective subject matters hereof and thereof and supersede in their entirety any prior or contemporaneous oral or written discussions, negotiations, agreements or understandings between or among the parties with respect to such subject matter (other than the Mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement dated May 13, 2004 executed by the Company, Parent and certain of the Shareholders, which shall continue in accordance with the terms thereof); (b) are not intended to and shall not confer upon any other person (including, those persons listed on any exhibits or schedules attached hereto or any Shareholders of the Company) any rights or remedies hereunder; and (c) may not be assigned by operation of law or otherwise without the prior written consent of each other party hereto, and any purported assignment in violation of this requirement shall be null and void ab initio.  Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of, and is enforceable by, the respective parties hereto and their respective successors, permitted assigns, heirs, executors and administrators.

9.5           Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect and the application of such provision to other persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the express intent of the parties hereto.  The parties further agree that any such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement shall be deemed replaced with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

9.6           Remedies; Exercise of Rights.  The remedy provided in Section 7.2(a) in case of a breach of this Agreement by the Shareholders shall be exclusive and hence it is specifically agreed that no remedy whatsoever under the Sale of Goods Act (Sw Köplagen (1990:931)) or under any other statute, law or legal principle, including, without limitation, the right to rescind this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, shall be available to Parent or Purchaser, except (a) nothing herein shall limit any Shareholder’s obligations to Parent or Purchaser, as the case may be, for Losses incurred by Parent or Purchaser, as the case may be, resulting solely from fraud, intentional misrepresentation or actual concealment (collectively Sw. svek or bedrägeri) as described in clause 30 of the Swedish Contracts Act (Sw. Avtalslagen) or in Ch. 9 § 1 of the Swedish Criminal Code (Sw. Brottsbalken) committed by such Shareholder and (b) as provided in Section 9.9.  No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof (or failure to exercise) preclude any other, further or fuller exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

9.7           Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Sweden, without giving effect to its conflicts or choice of law principles.

the Agreement, shall be settled by arbitration in accordance with the Rules of the Arbitration Institute of the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce and each party hereto hereby unconditionally and irrevocably submits and consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the arbitration tribunal appointed in accordance therewith.  The place of arbitration shall be Stockholm, Sweden. The language to be used in the arbitral proceedings shall be English.  The parties undertake and agree that all arbitral proceedings conducted with reference to this arbitration clause will be kept strictly confidential.  This confidentiality undertaking shall cover all information disclosed in the course of such arbitral proceedings, as well as any decision or award that is made or declared during the proceedings. Information covered by this confidentiality undertaking may not, in any form, be disclosed to a third party without the written consent of the other party.  This notwithstanding, a party shall not be prevented from disclosing such information in order to safeguard in the best possible way his rights vis-à-vis the other party in connection with the dispute, or if such a right exists pursuant to statute, regulation, a decision by an authority, a stock exchange contract or similar.  In addition to any recovery to which a party may be entitled hereunder, the prevailing party in any arbitration hereunder shall be entitled to reasonable attorney’s fees and costs incurred in connection with such arbitration as determined by the arbitrators.

9.9           Specific Performance.  The parties acknowledge and agree that any failure of any party to perform its agreements and obligations hereunder or contemplated hereby prior to the Closing Date will cause irreparable injury to the other parties, for which damages, even if available, will not provide an adequate remedy.  Accordingly, each party hereby consents to the issuance of injunctive relief by any court of competent jurisdiction to compel performance of such party’s obligations prior to the Closing Date and to the granting by any court of the remedy of specific performance of its obligations hereunder prior to the Closing Date.

9.10         Rules of Construction.  The parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement.  In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement and the applicable Ancillary Agreements shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions hereof or thereof.  Accordingly, each party understands and agrees that the common law principles of construing ambiguities against the drafter shall have no application to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.  Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that such party has had a full and complete opportunity to review this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement, to make suggestions or changes to their terms and to seek independent legal and other advice in connection herewith and therewith.

9.11         Parent Guarantee.  In its capacity as the owner and sole stockholder of Purchaser, Parent hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees as for its own obligations and debt (Sw proprieborgen; såsom för egen skuld) all obligations of Purchaser under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and the payment of all sums, of whatever nature, payable now or in the future hereunder by Purchaser.
