AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

     THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (this “Agreement”), dated December 11, 2008, is made and entered into by and among EMS TECHNOLOGIES, INC., a Georgia corporation (the “Purchaser”), EMS ACQUISITIONS, INC., a New Jersey corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Purchaser (“Merger Sub”), FORMATION, INC., a New Jersey corporation (the “Company”), and, solely in his capacity as the Stockholder Representative (as defined below) hereunder, Nim Evatt. The Purchaser, Merger Sub and the Company are sometimes individually referred to in this Agreement as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties.” Certain capitalized terms that are used in this Agreement are defined in Exhibit A.

W I T N E S S E T H:

     WHEREAS, the Parties intend that Merger Sub merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving such Merger on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement;

     WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company has unanimously (i) determined that it is in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders, and declared it advisable, to enter into this Agreement providing for the Merger in accordance with the Business Corporation Act of the State of New Jersey (the “BCANJ”), (ii) approved the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (iii) resolved to recommend adoption of this Agreement by the Company’s stockholders;

     WHEREAS, the respective Boards of Directors of the Purchaser (on its own behalf and as the sole stockholder of Merger Sub) and Merger Sub have each unanimously approved this Agreement and declared it advisable for the Purchaser and Merger Sub, respectively, to enter into this Agreement;

     WHEREAS, promptly following the execution of this Agreement, the Company shall obtain the approval of the requisite holders of its capital stock necessary to approve the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and

     WHEREAS, the Parties desire to make certain representations, warranties, covenants and other agreements in connection with the foregoing.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the respective representations, warranties, covenants, agreements and conditions set forth in this Agreement, and intending to be legally bound by this Agreement, the Parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE I
THE MERGER

     Section 1.1 The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and in accordance with the relevant provisions of the BCANJ, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company at the Effective Time. Following the Merger, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease, and the Company will continue as the surviving corporation in the Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”) and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Purchaser.

     Section 1.2 Effective Time. Prior to the Closing, the Purchaser and the Company shall prepare a certificate of merger (the “Certificate of Merger”). Upon the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Parties shall file the Certificate of Merger, executed in accordance with the relevant provisions of the BCANJ, with the State Treasurer of the State of New Jersey as soon as practicable on the Closing Date. As soon as practicable on or after the Closing Date, the Parties shall make any and all other filings or recordings required under the BCANJ to effectuate the Merger and the terms of this Agreement. The Merger will be effective at such time as the Parties duly file the Certificate of Merger with the State Treasurer of the State of New Jersey or at such other date or time (not to exceed 90 days after the filing date) as the Purchaser and the Company agree in writing and specify in the Certificate of Merger (the time the Merger becomes effective being the “Effective Time”).

     Section 1.3 Effects of the Merger. The Merger will have the effects set forth in this Agreement and the relevant provisions of the BCANJ. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject hereto, at the Effective Time, all property, rights, privileges, immunities, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub will vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all claims, obligations, restrictions, disabilities, liabilities, debts and duties of the Company and Merger Sub will become the claims, obligations, restrictions, disabilities, liabilities, debts and duties of the Surviving Corporation.

     Section 1.4 Certificate of Incorporation; Bylaws.

     (a) At the Effective Time, the certificate of incorporation of the Company shall be amended and restated in its entirety to be identical to the certificate of incorporation of Merger Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that the name of the Surviving Corporation shall continue to be “Formation, Inc.”

     (b) At the Effective Time, the bylaws of the Company shall be amended and restated in their entirety to be identical to the bylaws of Merger Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, until the same shall thereafter be altered, amended or repealed in accordance with applicable Law or such bylaws.

     Section 1.5 Directors and Officers. The directors and officers of Merger Sub serving in those positions immediately prior to the Effective Time will become, as of the Effective Time, the directors and officers of the Surviving Corporation and will remain the directors and officers of the Surviving Corporation after the Merger, in each case until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified or until the earlier of their death, resignation or removal.

ARTICLE II
MERGER CONSIDERATION; CONVERSION OF SECURITIES

     Section 2.1 Calculation and Payment of Merger Consideration.

     (a) Calculation of Merger Consideration. Subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and adjustment pursuant to Section 2.6, the Purchaser shall pay, or cause to be paid, as and when due, with respect to the Company Shares and the Options, an aggregate amount in cash (the “Merger Consideration”) equal to: (i) the Closing Date Cash Proceeds, plus (ii) the Earnout Payments, if any, plus (iii) the Escrow Amount, plus or minus (iv) any payments required to be made pursuant to Article IX.

     (b) Allocation of Merger Consideration. Not less than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to the Purchaser a statement (the “Closing Date Equity Statement”), executed by the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer of the Company, that sets forth in reasonable detail: (i) the name of each Holder; (ii) the portion of the Closing Date Cash Proceeds to be paid to such Holder at the Closing pursuant to Section 2.2; (iii) each Holder’s Pro Rata Percentage; (iv) the number of Fully Diluted Shares, including the number of Fully Diluted Shares held by each Holder attributable to the Company Shares and to Options; (v) the Aggregate Option Exercise Price; (vi) the Per Option Merger Consideration; (vii) the Per Share Merger Consideration; and (viii) the amounts payable by the Purchaser to the Paying Agent and the Company pursuant to Section 2.2.

     (c) Estimated Merger Consideration Adjustments. Not less than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to the Purchaser a certificate (the “Closing Date Financials Statement”), executed by the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, that sets forth the following:

     (i) the amount of the Closing Date Indebtedness;

     (ii) the amount of the Transaction Expenses;

     (iii) the Company’s good faith estimate of the Closing Date Cash Balance (the “Estimated Closing Date Cash”); and

     (iv) the Company’s good faith estimate of the Net Working Capital (the “Estimated Working Capital”) and the resulting Estimated Working Capital Surplus or the Estimated Working Capital Deficit, as the case may be.

The Company shall provide the Purchaser and its representatives with access to the Company’s employees and advisors and such books and records as may be reasonably requested by the Purchaser and its representatives in order to verify the information contained in the Closing Date Financials Statement. The Company shall make appropriate and reasonable revisions to the Closing Date Financials Statement as are mutually agreed upon by the Purchaser and the Company.

     Section 2.2 Payment of Closing Date Cash Proceeds. On the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall pay an amount equal to the Closing Date Cash Proceeds, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, as follows:

     (a) to the Paying Agent, which shall be distributed to the Stockholders without duplication by the Paying Agent, in an amount equal to the Per Share Merger Consideration multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time;

     (b) to the Company, which shall be distributed to the Option Holders without duplication by the Company, in an amount equal to the Per Option Merger Consideration multiplied by the number of Options that are outstanding and exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time, which amount shall be subject to applicable payroll tax withholding; and

     (c) to the Company, which shall be distributed to Cliff Oberholtzer in an amount equal to the amount, if any, by which (i) the product of the Per Share Merger Consideration multiplied by the number of Oberholtzer Shares exceeds (ii) the Oberholtzer Proceeds, which amount shall be subject to applicable payroll tax withholding.

     Section 2.3 Payment of Other Amounts. On the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall:

     (a) repay or cause to be repaid on behalf of the Company and its Subsidiaries the Closing Date Indebtedness to such account or accounts as specified in the Payoff Letters;

     (b) pay or cause to be paid $5,000,000 (the “Escrow Amount”) to the Escrow Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds to be held by the Escrow Agent in a separate account held in the name of the Purchaser in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement; and

     (c) pay or cause to be paid on behalf of the Company and its Subsidiaries the aggregate amount of the Transaction Expenses to such account or accounts as specified in the Closing Date Financials Statement.

     Section 2.4 Conversion of Securities. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any Party or the holders of any of the following securities:

     (a) Conversion of Common Stock. Each Company Share, excluding any Company Shares to be canceled pursuant to Section 2.4(c), will be canceled and convert automatically into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the Per Share Merger Consideration plus any other amounts payable with respect to such Company Share hereunder, payable, without interest, to the holder of such Company Share upon the surrender pursuant to Section 2.5 of the Certificate formerly representing such Company Share.

     (b) Cancellation of Options. The Company shall take all steps necessary to cancel each issued and outstanding Option as of the Effective Time and convert such

Option into the right to receive an amount equal to the portion of the Per Option Merger Consideration allocable to, plus any other amounts payable with respect to, such Option in accordance with this Agreement.

     (c) Cancellation of Treasury Stock and Purchaser-Owned Stock. Each Company Share held in the treasury of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and each Company Share owned by the Purchaser, Merger Sub or any other subsidiary of the Purchaser, will be canceled automatically without conversion thereof and no payment or distribution will be made with respect thereto.

     (d) Equity Interests of Merger Sub. Each share of common stock of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be converted into and exchanged for one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

In the event that the Company changes the number of shares of Common Stock or securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding prior to the Effective Time as a result of a reclassification, stock split (including reverse stock split), stock dividend or distribution, recapitalization, merger, issuer tender or exchange offer, or other similar transaction, the Per Share Merger Consideration shall be equitably adjusted.

     Section 2.5 Surrender of Certificates.

     (a) Payment Procedures. Promptly after the Effective Time, the Purchaser shall cause the Paying Agent to mail to each person who was, at the Effective Time, a holder of record of Company Shares entitled to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.4(a): (i) a letter of transmittal, in customary form and specifying that delivery will be effected, and risk of loss and title to the certificates evidencing such Company Shares (the “Certificates”) will pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates to the Paying Agent, and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent of a Certificate for cancellation, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may be reasonably required pursuant to such instructions, the holder of such Certificate will be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the Per Share Merger Consideration for each Company Share formerly evidenced by such Certificate plus any other amounts payable with respect to such Company Share hereunder, including in the event of a Working Capital Surplus or a Cash Surplus or a positive Earnout Payment, and such Certificate shall then be canceled. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Company Shares that is not registered in the Company’s transfer records, payment of the Per Share Merger Consideration and any other amounts payable hereunder with respect to such Company Shares may be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificate so surrendered is registered if (A) the Certificate representing such Company Shares is properly endorsed or otherwise in proper form for transfer and (B) the Person requesting such payment (1) has paid all transfer and other Taxes required by reason of such transfer or (2) established to the

reasonable satisfaction of the Surviving Corporation that such Taxes either have been paid or are not applicable. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.5, each Certificate shall be deemed at all times after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the portion of the Merger Consideration to which the holder of such Certificate is entitled pursuant to this Article II. No interest shall be paid or will accrue on any cash payable to holders of Certificates pursuant to the provisions of this Article II.

     (b) No Further Rights. All Merger Consideration paid upon the surrender of Certificates in accordance with the terms of this Article II and the cancellation of Options shall be deemed to have been exchanged and paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the securities represented by such Certificates and Options, respectively, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of the shares of Common Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. From and after the Effective Time, holders of Certificates shall cease to have any rights as stockholders of the Company, except as provided in this Agreement or by applicable Law.

     (c) Termination of Payment Fund. At any time following the one (1) year anniversary of the Closing Date, the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to require the Paying Agent to deliver to it any funds (including any interest received with respect thereto) that had been made available to the Paying Agent and which have not been disbursed to the Holders, and thereafter, such Holders will be entitled to look only to the Purchaser and the Surviving Corporation (subject to abandoned property, escheat or other similar Laws) as general creditors thereof with respect to the payment of any Merger Consideration that would otherwise be payable upon surrender of any Certificates or cancellation of Options held by such Holders, as determined pursuant to this Agreement, without any interest thereon. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by such Holders at such time at which such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Entity will become, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, the property of the Purchaser, free and clear of all claims or interests of any Person previously entitled thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Purchaser, Merger Sub or the Surviving Corporation will be liable to any former Holder for any portion of the Merger Consideration or interest thereon properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or other similar Law.

     (d) Withholding Rights. Each of the Paying Agent, the Surviving Corporation and the Purchaser are entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to such payment under all applicable Tax Laws. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by the Paying Agent, the Surviving Corporation or the Purchaser, as the case may be, such withheld amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the Company Shares or the Options in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

     (e) Lost Certificates. If a Holder’s Certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by such Holder and, if required by the

Surviving Corporation, the posting by such Holder of a bond, in such reasonable amount as the Surviving Corporation may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Purchaser shall cause the Paying Agent to pay in respect of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the portion of the Merger Consideration to which such Holder is entitled pursuant to this Article II.

     Section 2.6 Adjustments of Merger Consideration.

     (a) As promptly as practicable following the Closing Date, but in any event no later than 60 days after the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to the Stockholder Representative an unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date (the “Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet”), together with a statement (the “Preliminary Closing Statement”) containing (i) the Preliminary Working Capital Schedule, including Purchaser’s calculation of Net Working Capital, and (ii) the Purchaser’s calculation of the Closing Date Cash Balance. The Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP (except that it will lack notes, schedules and other presentation items required by GAAP) using the same applicable accounting methods, accounting practices, assumptions, policies and methodologies as were used in preparing the Financial Statements, as modified by the provisions of Exhibit D, and shall not include the effects of any purchase accounting or other similar adjustments. The Preliminary Closing Statement and the Net Working Capital shall be derived from the Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet using the same applicable accounting methods, accounting practices, assumptions, policies and methodologies as were used in preparing the Financial Statements, as modified by the provisions of Exhibit D, and shall not include the effects of purchase accounting or other similar adjustments. The Surviving Corporation and the Stockholder Representative shall provide to each other such data and information as the other may reasonably request in connection with the preparation and review of the Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet, the Preliminary Closing Statement, the Net Working Capital and Closing Date Cash Balance, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause their respective accountants to provide access to work papers and other information in the possession of such accountants, subject to customary procedures and the execution of customary documentation reasonably requested by such accountants.

     (b) The Stockholder Representative shall notify the Purchaser of any dispute of any item contained in the Preliminary Closing Statement no later than 30 days after the Stockholder Representative’s receipt of the Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet and the Preliminary Closing Statement, which notice must set forth in reasonable detail the basis for such dispute. If the Stockholder Representative does not notify the Purchaser of any such dispute within such 30-day period, then (i) the Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet and the Preliminary Working Capital Schedule shall be deemed to be the Final Closing Balance Sheet and Final Working Capital Schedule and (ii) the Purchaser’s calculation of the Net Working Capital and the Closing Date Cash Balance shall be deemed to be the Final Working Capital and the Final Closing Date Cash Balance, respectively. The Purchaser and the Stockholder Representative shall cooperate in good faith to resolve any such dispute as promptly as possible. Upon such resolution, the Purchaser and the Stockholder Representative shall prepare the Final Closing Balance Sheet and Final

Working Capital Schedule and the amount of the Final Working Capital and the Final Closing Date Cash Balance as mutually agreed.

     (c) If the Purchaser and the Stockholder Representative are unable to resolve any dispute regarding the Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet and/or Preliminary Closing Statement within 15 days (or such longer period as the Purchaser and the Stockholder Representative shall mutually agree in writing), following notice of such dispute, such dispute shall be submitted to, and all issues having a bearing on such dispute shall be resolved by, (i) the New York office of Grant Thornton LLP, or (ii) in the event such accounting firm is unable or unwilling to take such assignment, an independent nationally-recognized accounting firm mutually agreed upon by the Purchaser and the Stockholder Representative (such identified accounting firm or, if applicable, the firm so selected, the “Arbitrator”). The Purchaser and the Stockholder Representative shall each provide the Arbitrator with their respective determinations of the Final Working Capital Schedule and the amount of the Final Closing Date Cash Balance, together with such work papers and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues as the Arbitrator may request. The Purchaser and the Stockholder Representative shall instruct the Arbitrator that it shall (A) determine the Final Working Capital and Final Closing Date Cash Balance to be no less than the amount initially submitted by the Purchaser to the Stockholder Representative as the Net Working Capital and the Closing Date Cash Balance and no greater than such amount that was proposed to be adjusted by the Stockholder Representative in its notice of dispute, and (B) render a written decision, using its good faith judgment and consistent with the accounting policies set forth in Exhibit D, which the Parties agree will be final, conclusive and binding on them with respect to the determination of (1) the Final Working Capital Schedule, (2) the amount of the Final Working Capital and Final Closing Date Cash Balance, and (3) with respect to the accuracy and correctness of the underlying numbers. The fees, costs and expenses of the Arbitrator shall be allocated to the Holders or the Purchaser based upon the percentage which the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each party bears to the amount actually contested by such party, as determined by the Arbitrator. Solely by way of illustration, if the Purchaser claims before the Arbitrator that the determination of Net Working Capital as of the Closing Date is $1,000,000, and the Stockholder Representative claims before the Arbitrator that the determination of Net Working Capital as of the Closing Date is $1,500,000, and if the Arbitrator ultimately resolves the dispute by awarding the Purchaser $300,000 of the $500,000 difference, then the costs and expenses of the Arbitrator will be allocated 60% (i.e., 300,000 ÷ 500,000) to the Holders and 40% (i.e., 200,000 ÷ 500,000) to the Purchaser. For avoidance of doubt, the forgoing illustration shall in no way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Arbitrator determines that one of the Parties has not proceeded in good faith with respect to a material portion of such dispute, such Party shall bear fully the fees and expenses of the Arbitrator. The Parties shall use their reasonable efforts to conclude such process within ninety (90) days of the submission of such dispute to the Arbitrator.

     (d) Within five (5) Business Days following the determination of the Final Working Capital and the Final Closing Date Cash Balance in accordance with this Section 2.6:

     (i) If there is a Working Capital Deficit, then the Purchaser shall deliver written notice to the Escrow Agent and the Stockholder Representative specifying the amount of such Working Capital Deficit, and the Escrow Agent shall, within three (3) Business Days of its receipt of such notice and in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement, and the Purchaser and the Stockholder Representative shall direct the Escrow Agent to, pay to the Purchaser from the Escrow Fund such amount together with interest thereon at 8% per annum compounded daily from the Closing Date to and including the date of payment. If a dispute exists between the Parties regarding the amount of the Working Capital Deficit, then the Escrow Agent shall pay to the Purchaser the uncontested amount prior to the determination of the disputed amount.

     (ii) If there is a Working Capital Surplus, then the Purchaser shall pay, or cause the Surviving Corporation to pay, to the Stockholder Representative or the Paying Agent (as determined by the Stockholder Representative) an amount equal to the Working Capital Surplus, together with interest thereon at 8% per annum compounded daily from the Closing Date to and including the date of payment. If a dispute exists between the Parties regarding the amount of the Working Capital Surplus, the Purchaser shall pay, or cause the Surviving Corporation to pay, to the Stockholder Representative or the Paying Agent, as applicable, the uncontested amount prior to the determination of the disputed amount. Upon such payment, the Stockholder Representative and/or the Paying Agent, as applicable, shall disburse promptly such amount to the Holders in accordance with their Pro Rata Percentages.

     (iii) If there is a Cash Deficit, then the Purchaser shall deliver written notice to the Escrow Agent and the Stockholder Representative specifying the amount of such Cash Deficit, and the Escrow Agent shall, within three (3) Business Days of its receipt of such notice and in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement, and the Purchaser and the Stockholder Representative shall direct the Escrow Agent to, pay to the Purchaser from the Escrow Fund such amount together with interest thereon at 8% per annum compounded daily from the Closing Date to and including the date of payment. If a dispute exists between the Parties regarding the amount of the Cash Deficit, then the Escrow Agent shall pay to the Purchaser the uncontested amount prior to the determination of the disputed amount.

If a dispute exists between the Parties regarding the amount of the Cash Surplus, the Purchaser shall pay, or cause the Surviving Corporation to pay, to the Stockholder Representative or the Paying Agent, as applicable, the uncontested amount prior to the determination of the disputed amount. Upon such payment, the Stockholder

Any payment due to the Purchaser from the Holders under this Section 2.6 shall be satisfied solely from the Escrow Fund. For the avoidance of doubt, the Purchaser shall not be entitled to seek any such payment directly from all or any of the Holders.

     (f) Any payment that is to be made pursuant to Section 2.6(d)(ii) or Section 2.6(d)(iv) to the Holders and that is attributable to the Options or is made to Cliff Oberholtzer shall be treated for Tax purposes as a payment of compensation for services and, accordingly, the Purchaser shall cause the Surviving Corporation to deduct and withhold from each such payment the amount of any required federal, foreign, provincial, state, or local payroll Taxes required to be deducted and withheld by the Surviving Corporation with respect to such payment. The Purchaser shall cause the Surviving Corporation to pay such withholding Taxes to the applicable Governmental Entities as required by Law.

     Section 2.7 Earnout Payment.

     (a) Preliminary Calculation of EBITDA. As promptly as practicable following the end of each Earnout Period, but in any event no later than 60 days after the end of each Earnout Period, the Purchaser shall deliver to the Stockholder Representative (i) unaudited financial statements with respect to the Surviving Corporation for the respective Earnout Period (the “Preliminary Earnout Period Financial Statements”) and (ii) a report setting forth the Purchaser’s calculation of EBITDA of the Surviving Corporation for the respective Earnout Period (the “Preliminary EBITDA Calculation”). The Preliminary Earnout Period Financial Statements shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP (except that it will lack notes, schedules and other presentation items required by GAAP) using the same applicable accounting methods, accounting practices, assumptions, policies and methodologies as were used in preparing the Financial Statements and shall not include the effects of any purchase accounting or other similar adjustments. The Preliminary EBITDA Calculation shall be derived from the Preliminary Earnout Period Financial Statements using the same applicable accounting methods, accounting practices, assumptions, policies and methodologies as were used in preparing the Financial Statements and shall not include the effects of any purchase accounting or other similar adjustments.

     (b) Examination by Stockholder Representative. Within the 30-day period commencing on the date on which the Purchaser delivers to the Stockholder Representative the Preliminary Earnout Period Financial Statements and the Preliminary EBITDA Calculation (the “Adjustment Period”), the Stockholder Representative shall deliver to the Purchaser either (i) a written acknowledgment accepting the Preliminary Earnout Period Financial Statements and the Preliminary EBITDA Calculation or (ii) a

written report setting forth in reasonable detail any proposed adjustments to the Preliminary Earnout Period Financial Statements and the Preliminary EBITDA Calculation (the “Earnout Adjustment Report”). If the Stockholder Representative fails to deliver an Earnout Adjustment Report to the Purchaser during the Adjustment Period, then the Stockholder Representative, on behalf of the Holders, shall be deemed to have accepted and agreed to the Preliminary Earnout Period Financial Statements and the Preliminary EBITDA Calculation as delivered by the Purchaser, which shall be deemed to be the Final Earnout Period Financial Statements and the Final EBITDA Calculation for the respective Earnout Period. The Purchaser and the Surviving Corporation shall provide to the Stockholder Representative such data and information as the Stockholder Representative may reasonably request in connection with his review of the Preliminary Earnout Period Financial Statements and the Preliminary EBITDA Calculation, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Purchaser’s and Surviving Corporation’s accountants to provide access to work papers and other information in the possession of such accountants, subject to customary procedures and the execution of customary documentation reasonably requested by such accountants.

     (c) Resolution of Disputes.

     (i) If the Stockholder Representative delivers an Earnout Adjustment Report to the Purchaser during the Adjustment Period, then the Stockholder Representative and the Purchaser shall attempt in good faith to resolve any dispute with respect to the proposed adjustments during the 30-day period commencing on the date on which the Stockholder Representative delivers to the Purchaser an Earnout Adjustment Report (the “Resolution Period”). Upon such resolution, the Purchaser and the Stockholder Representative shall prepare the Final Earnout Period Financial Statements and the Final EBITDA Calculation for the respective Earnout Period as mutually agreed.

     (ii) If during the Resolution Period (or such longer period as the Stockholder Representative and the Purchaser may mutually agree in writing) the Stockholder Representative and the Purchaser fail to agree on the Stockholder Representative’s proposed adjustments to the Preliminary Earnout Period Financial Statements and the Preliminary EBITDA Calculation as set forth in the Earnout Adjustment Report, then the Stockholder Representative and the Purchaser agree that they shall engage the Arbitrator to make the final determination with respect to any disputed portion of the Preliminary Earnout Period Financial Statements and the Preliminary EBITDA Calculation within the 30-day period immediately following the end of the Resolution Period. The Purchaser and the Stockholder Representative shall provide the Arbitrator with their respective determinations of the Preliminary Earnout Period Financial Statements and the Preliminary EBITDA Calculation, together with such work papers and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues as the Arbitrator may request. The Purchaser and the Stockholder Representative shall instruct the Arbitrator that it shall (A) determine the Final EBITDA Calculation to be no less than the amount initially submitted by the Purchaser to the Stockholder Representative as the Preliminary EBITDA Calculation and no greater than such

amount was proposed to be adjusted by the Stockholder Representative in the Earnout Adjustment Report and (B) render a written decision, which the Purchaser and the Stockholder Representative agree will be final, conclusive and binding on the Stockholder Representative and the Purchaser with respect to the determination of the Final Earnout Period Financial Statements and the Final EBITDA Calculation for the respective Earnout Period and with respect to the accuracy and correctness of the underlying numbers.

     (iii) The fees and expenses of the Arbitrator for each respective Earnout Period shall be allocated to the Holders or the Purchaser based upon the percentage which the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each party bears to the amount actually contested by such party, as determined by the Arbitrator. Solely by way of illustration, if the Purchaser claims before the Arbitrator that the Preliminary EBITDA Calculation is $10,000,000, and the Stockholder Representative claims before the Arbitrator that the Preliminary EBITDA Calculation is $15,000,000, and if the Arbitrator ultimately resolves the dispute by determining the Final EBITDA Calculation to be $12,000,000, thus awarding the Purchaser $3,000,000 of the $5,000,000 difference, then the costs and expenses of the Arbitrator will be allocated 60% (i.e., 3,000,000 ÷ 5,000,000) to the Holders and 40% (i.e., 2,000,000 ÷ 5,000,000) to the Purchaser. For avoidance of doubt, the forgoing illustration shall in no way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

The Holders agree and acknowledge that the right to receive any Earnout Payment: (i) is an integral part of the Merger Consideration and not an investment; (ii) does not represent an ownership interest in the Purchaser, Merger Sub or any of their Affiliates; and (iii) does not carry voting, dividend or liquidation rights.

     Section 5.13 Termination Fee. If either (a) on or after the date hereof and prior to the date the Company Stockholder Approval is obtained an Acquisition proposal shall have been

made to the Company or any other Person shall have publicly announced an intention to make an Acquisition proposal and thereafter this Agreement is terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(d) and within twelve (12) months after such termination, the Company enters into, or submits to the stockholders of the Company for adoption, a definitive agreement with respect to the transaction contemplated by such Acquisition proposal, or (b) this Agreement is terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(e) or the Purchaser pursuant to Section 8.1(f), then the Company shall (i) in the case of subsection (a), upon the date of the consummation of transaction contemplated by such Acquisition proposal, or (ii) in the case of subsection (b), no later than the date of such termination of this Agreement, pay the Purchaser by wire transfer of immediately available funds an amount equal to $2,000,000 plus all expenses and costs incurred by the Purchaser in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Termination Fee”). The Company acknowledges that this Section 5.13 is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that without these provisions, the Purchaser would not enter into this Agreement.

     Section 5.14 Cooperation in Filing Tax Returns. Purchaser, the Surviving Corporation and the Stockholder Representative shall, and shall each cause its respective Affiliates to, provide to the other such cooperation and information, as and to the extent reasonably requested, in connection with the filing of any Tax Return, amended Tax Return or claim for refund, determining liability for Taxes or a right to refund of Taxes, or in conducting any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation and information shall include providing copies of all relevant portions of relevant Tax Returns, together with relevant accompanying schedules and relevant work papers, relevant documents relating to rulings and other determinations by taxing authorities, and relevant records concerning the ownership and Tax basis of property, which any such party may possess. Each party will retain all Tax Returns, schedules, work papers, and all material records and other documents relating to Tax matters of the Company and any Subsidiary for the Tax period first ending after the Closing Date and for all prior Tax periods until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (and, to the extent notice is provided with respect thereto, any extensions thereof) for the Tax periods to which the Tax Returns and other documents relate. Each Party shall make its employees reasonably available on a mutually convenient basis at its cost to provide explanation of any documents or information so provided.

     Section 5.15 International Trade Assessment. During the Interim Period, the Company shall engage its legal counsel to conduct an assessment of the Company’s compliance with the Foreign Trade Laws. If, as a result of such assessment, it is determined that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to have engaged in activities that are not compliant with any of the Foreign Trade Laws, the Company and/or its Subsidiaries shall (a) immediately cease any such non-compliant activities, to the extent such activities are on-going, and (b) implement corrective actions necessary to ensure that no further violations of the relevant Foreign Trade Laws occur. For violations of the Foreign Trade Laws that occurred prior to the Company’s ceasing of the non-compliant activities, the Company will consult with the Purchaser for the purpose of reaching agreement concerning whether a disclosure of any such activity to the relevant Governmental Entity is required under the relevant Foreign Trade Laws, or, if not required, whether a disclosure of the non-compliant activities should nevertheless be submitted to the relevant Governmental Entity. Upon mutual agreement of the Purchaser and the Company, the

Company shall submit a written disclosure to the relevant Governmental Entity, after providing the Purchaser a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such written disclosure.

ARTICLE IX
INDEMNIFICATION

     Section 9.1 Indemnification Obligations of the Holders. From and after the Effective Time and subject to the limitations and further provisions set forth in this Article IX, the Holders shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Purchaser Indemnified Parties from, against, and in respect of, any and all Losses arising out of or relating to:

     (a) any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement;

     (b) any breach of any covenant, agreement or undertaking made by the Company in this Agreement;

     (c) any fraud of the Company in connection with this Agreement;

     (d) any liability relating to, resulting from or arising out of the Closing Date Indebtedness or the Transaction Expenses, in each case to the extent not paid at or prior to the Closing or pursuant to Section 2.3; or

     (e) any liability of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (i) for any Taxes of the Company and its Subsidiaries with respect to any taxable period (or portion of a taxable period) ending on or before the Closing Date to the extent such Taxes were not accrued as current liabilities on the face of the Final Working Capital Schedule and (ii) for the unpaid Taxes of any Person (other than the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) under Treasury Regulation §1.1502-6 (or similar provision of Law), as a transferee or successor, by Contract, or otherwise. For purposes of this Section 9.1(e), in the case of any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date, the amount of any Taxes based on or measured by income or receipts of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the portion of the taxable period ending on the Closing Date shall be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date, and the amount of other Taxes relating to the portion of a taxable period ending on the Closing Date shall be pro rated on a daily basis.

The Losses of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties described in this Section 9.1 as to which the Purchaser Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification are collectively referred to as “Purchaser Losses”.

     Section 9.2 Indemnification Obligations of the Purchaser. From and after the Effective Time and subject to the limitations and further provisions set forth in this Article IX, the Purchaser and the Surviving Corporation, jointly and severally, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company Indemnified Parties from, against and in respect of any and all Losses arising out of or relating to:

     (a) any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by the Purchaser in this Agreement;

     (b) any breach of any covenant, agreement or undertaking made by the Purchaser in this Agreement; or

     (c) any fraud of the Purchaser in connection with this Agreement.

The Losses of the Company Indemnified Parties described in this Section 9.2 as to which the Company Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification are collectively referred to as “Company Losses”.

     Section 9.3 Indemnification Procedure.

     (a) Promptly following receipt by an Indemnified Party of notice by a third party (including any Governmental Entity) of any complaint or the commencement of any audit, investigation, action or proceeding with respect to which such Indemnified Party may be entitled to receive payment from the other Party for any Purchaser Loss or any Company Loss (as the case may be), such Indemnified Party shall notify in writing the Purchaser or the Stockholder Representative (on behalf of the Holders), as the case may be (the “Indemnifying Party”), promptly, and in any event no later than thirty (30) days, following the Indemnified Party’s receipt of such complaint or of notice of the commencement of such audit, investigation, action or proceeding; provided, however, that the failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from liability under this Agreement with respect to such claim only if, and only to the extent that, such failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party results in the forfeiture by the Indemnifying Party of rights and defenses otherwise available to the Indemnifying Party with respect to such claim. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, upon written notice delivered to the Indemnified Party within 15 days thereafter assuming full responsibility for any Purchaser Losses or Company Losses (as the case may be) resulting from such audit, investigation, action or proceeding, to assume the defense of such audit, investigation, action or proceeding, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the payment of the fees and disbursements of such counsel. In the event, however, that the Indemnifying Party declines or fails to assume the defense of the audit, investigation, action or proceeding on the terms provided above or to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, in either case within such 15-day period, then the Indemnifying Party shall pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Indemnified Party as incurred. In any audit, investigation, action or proceeding for which indemnification is being sought under this Agreement the Indemnified Party or the Indemnifying Party, whichever is not assuming the defense of such action, shall have the right to participate in such matter and

to retain its own counsel at such Party’s own expense. The Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party (as the case may be) shall at all times use reasonable efforts to keep the Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party (as the case may be) reasonably apprised of the status of the defense of any matter the defense of which it is maintaining and to cooperate in good faith with each other with respect to the defense of any such matter.

     (b) No Indemnified Party may settle or compromise any claim or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to which indemnification is being sought under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, unless (i) the Indemnifying Party fails to assume and maintain the defense of such claim pursuant to Section 9.3(a) or (ii) such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of the Indemnifying Party and its officers, directors, employees and Affiliates from all liability arising out of such claim. An Indemnifying Party may not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, settle or compromise any claim or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to which indemnification is being sought under this Agreement unless such settlement, compromise or consent (A) includes an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party and its officers, directors, employees and Affiliates from all liability arising out of such claim, (B) does not contain any admission or statement suggesting any wrongdoing or liability on behalf of the Indemnified Party, (C) does not contain any equitable order, judgment or term that in any manner affects, restrains or interferes with the business of the Indemnified Party or any of the Indemnified Party’s Affiliates and (D) in a matter involving Taxes, releases the Indemnified Party from all liability for similar claims for all taxable periods (or portions thereof) beginning after the Closing Date.

     (c) If an Indemnified Party claims a right to payment pursuant to this Article IX, such Indemnified Party shall promptly, and in any event within the relevant limitation period set forth in this Article IX applicable to such claim, send written notice of such claim to the appropriate Indemnifying Party. Such notice shall specify in reasonable detail the basis for such claim, the amount or the method of computation of the amount of such claim, and a reference to the provision of this Agreement or the Company Ancillary Document or Purchaser Ancillary Document, as the case may be, upon which such claim is based. The failure by any Indemnified Party so to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have to such Indemnified Party with respect to any claim made pursuant to this Article IX (except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure), it being understood that notices for claims in respect of a breach of a representation or warranty must be delivered prior to the expiration of the survival period for such representation or warranty under Section 9.4. If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within 30 days following its receipt of such notice that the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party under this Article IX or the amount thereof, the claim specified by the Indemnified Party in such written notice shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party under this Article IX, and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such liability to the Indemnified Party on demand or, in the case of any notice in which the amount of the claim (or any portion of the claim) is estimated, on such later date when the amount of such claim (or such portion of such claim) becomes finally determined. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its liability with respect to

such claim as provided above, as promptly as possible, such Indemnified Party and the appropriate Indemnifying Party shall negotiate in good faith to resolve the merits and amount of such claim (or, if the parties are unable to reach a resolution regarding such disputed claim within thirty (30) days of delivery of the notice of such dispute by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party, pursuant to the dispute resolution provisions of this Agreement) and, within five (5) Business Days following the final determination of the merits and amount of such claim, the Indemnifying Party shall pay to the Indemnified Party immediately available funds in an amount equal to such claim as determined under this Agreement.

     (d) In calculating any Losses arising from a breach of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement which is qualified by the words “material”, “in all material respects”, “Material Adverse Effect” or similar words, such Losses shall be calculated as if such qualifier were not contained therein, it being understood that the exclusion of such qualifier shall apply solely for the purpose of calculation of Losses under this Article IX, and not for the purpose of determining whether or not a breach has occurred.

     Section 9.4 Claims Period. The Claims Periods under this Agreement shall begin on the date of this Agreement and terminate as follows:

     (a) with respect to Purchaser Losses arising under (i) Section 9.1(a) with respect to any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty in Section 3.2 (Authorization), Section 3.3 (Capital Stock) and Section 3.14 (Tax Returns; Taxes) (collectively, the “Surviving Representations”) or (ii) Sections 9.1(b), 9.1(c), 9.1(d) and 9.1(e) (collectively, the “Surviving Obligations”), the Claims Period shall continue indefinitely, except as limited by Law (including any applicable statutes of limitation);

     (b) with respect to Company Losses arising under Sections 9.2(b) or 9.2(c), the Claims Period shall continue indefinitely, except as limited by Law (including any applicable statutes of limitation); and

     (c) with respect to all other Purchaser Losses or Company Losses arising under this Agreement, the Claims Period shall terminate on the date that is 18 months following the Closing Date (the “Escrow Termination Date”).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, prior to the close of business on the last day of the applicable Claims Period, an Indemnifying Party shall have been properly notified of a claim for indemnity under this Agreement and such claim shall not have been finally resolved or disposed of at such date, such claim shall continue to survive and shall remain a basis for indemnity under this Agreement until such claim is finally resolved or disposed of in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

     Section 9.5 Liability Limits; Exclusive Remedy.

     (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall not make a claim for indemnification under this Article IX for Purchaser Losses unless and until the aggregate amount of such Purchaser

Losses exceeds $250,000 (the “Purchaser Basket”), in which case the Purchaser Indemnified Parties may claim indemnification for all Purchaser Losses in excess of the Purchaser Basket; provided, however, the Surviving Obligations and the Surviving Representations shall not be subject to the Purchaser Basket. The total aggregate amount of the liability of the Company for Purchaser Losses shall be limited to $5,000,000 (the “Purchaser Cap”); provided, however, the Surviving Obligations and the Surviving Representations shall not be subject to the Purchaser Cap. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, any indemnification obligation of the Holders pursuant to Section 9.1 shall be satisfied first from the Escrow Fund and, if the Escrow Fund is insufficient to cover the entire amount of such Purchaser Losses or if the Escrow Fund has been fully distributed, the Purchaser may offset any such amount against amounts to be paid as part of any Earnout Payment. The remedies in this Article IX shall be the exclusive remedies of the Parties with respect to any and all matters covered by this Agreement that arise after the Effective Time. The Purchaser, the Surviving Corporation and the other Purchaser Indemnified Parties acknowledge and agree that the indemnification provided for in this Article IX shall be non-recourse to the Holders, the Stockholder Representative and their respective Affiliates, heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Party hereto shall be deemed to have waived any rights, claims, causes of action or remedies for conduct for which such Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 9.1(c) or Section 9.2(c), as the case may be.

     (b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither the Purchaser Indemnified Parties nor the Company Indemnified Parties shall have any right to indemnification under this Agreement to the extent that any such Party had already recovered Purchaser Losses or Company Losses, as the case may be, with respect to the same matter (whether from a third party or pursuant to this Agreement). If any Indemnified Party receives such amount from such third party subsequent to a recovery for indemnification under this Article IX, the applicable Indemnified Party will promptly remit such offset amount to the Indemnifying Party hereunder; provided, that if such indemnification claim was paid from the Escrow Fund, such funds shall be returned to the Escrow Fund.

     (c) The amount of any Purchaser Losses or Company Losses, as the case may be, for which indemnification is provided hereunder shall be net of any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party entitled to indemnification therefor under insurance policies in effect with respect to such Purchaser Losses or Company Losses, as the case may be, and as to which the premiums therefore have been fully paid prior to the Effective Time (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be calculated net of any deductibles). In the event that any insurance proceeds are recovered by such Indemnified Party with respect to an indemnification obligation that the Indemnifying Party previously paid to the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party will pay such recovered amount to the Indemnifying Party within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof by wire transfer or delivery of other immediately funds to an account designated in writing by the Indemnifying Party.

     (d) The amount of any Purchaser Losses or Company Losses, as the case may be, for which indemnification is provided shall be reduced to take account of any Tax benefit actually realized, in the taxable period in which the indemnification payment is made or in any prior taxable period, by the Indemnified Party entitled to indemnification therefor arising from the incurrence or payment of any such Purchaser Losses or Company Losses, as the case may be. In computing the amount of any such Tax benefit, such Indemnified Party shall be deemed to recognize all other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit before recognizing any item arising from the receipt of any indemnity payment hereunder or the incurrence or payment of any such indemnified Purchaser Losses or Company Losses, as the case may be.

     (e) Other than with respect to Section 9.1(c) and Section 9.2(c), no Party will be liable to any Indemnified Party for any punitive, consequential, incidental or special damages, including loss of revenue or income, decrease in or limitation of any tax attribute, diminution in value, business interruption, cost of capital or loss of business reputation or opportunity relating to any claim for which such Indemnified Party may be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement or for any Losses that arise because of any action taken or directed to be taken by the Purchaser or the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Affiliates after Closing except to the extent that indemnification is available to such Indemnified Party under this Article IX; provided, that if any Indemnified Party is liable to any third party for any of such damages relating to a claim for which such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification for any of such damages without regard to the foregoing limitation; provided, further, that nothing contained in this Section 9.5(e) shall limit the Purchaser from seeking indemnification for Losses to the extent such Losses are readily ascertainable and reasonably foreseeable.

     (i) act for such Holder with respect to all indemnification matters referred to in this Agreement, including the right to compromise or settle any such claim on behalf of such Holder;

     (ii) amend or waive any provision of this Agreement (including any condition to Closing) in any manner that does not differentiate among the Holders;

     (v) incur any expenses, liquidate and withhold assets received on behalf of such Holder prior to their distribution to such Holder to the extent of any amount that the Stockholder Representative deems necessary for payment of or as a reserve against expenses, and pay such expenses or deposit the same in an interest-bearing bank account established for such purpose;

     (vi) receive all notices, communications and deliveries under this Agreement on behalf of such Holder; and

     (vii) do or refrain from doing any further act or deed on behalf of each Holder that the Stockholder Representative deems necessary or appropriate, in the sole discretion of the Stockholder Representative, relating to the subject matter of this Agreement as fully and completely as such Holder could do if personally present and acting and as though any reference to such Holder in this Agreement was a reference to the Stockholder Representative.

provided, however, that the Stockholder Representative will have no obligation to act except as expressly provided in this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement.

     (b) Each Holder that accepts payment of any consideration in respect of the Merger as contemplated herein, that executes and delivers a letter of transmittal as contemplated by Section 2.5, or that otherwise approves this Agreement, whether at a meeting or by execution of a written consent, shall be deemed, by such acceptance of payment, execution of such letter of transmittal or approval of this Agreement, as the case may be, to have agreed to be bound by, as if a signatory hereto, the provisions of Article I, Article II, Article IX and Article X (including this Section 10.15). The appointment of the Stockholder Representative is deemed to be coupled with an interest and irrevocable, and any other Person may conclusively and absolutely rely, without inquiry, upon any action of the Stockholder Representative as the act of the Holders in all matters referred to in this Agreement. Each Holder hereby ratifies and confirms that the Stockholder Representative shall do or cause to be done by virtue of the Stockholder Representative’s appointment as Stockholder Representative of the Holders. The Stockholder Representative shall act for the Holders on all of the matters set forth in this Agreement in the manner the Stockholder Representative believes to be in the best interest of the Holders, but the Stockholder Representative will not be responsible to the Holders for any loss or damage the Holders may suffer by reason of the performance by the Stockholder Representative of the Stockholder Representative’s duties under this Agreement, other than loss or damage arising from willful misconduct or gross negligence in the performance of the Stockholder Representative’s duties hereunder.

Each Holder hereby confirms each and every action to be taken by the Stockholder Representative pursuant to the power of attorney granted in this Section 10.15 as if it were such Holder’s own and waives any right to make any claim against the Stockholder Representative that may arise, directly or indirectly, as a result of the Stockholder Representative’s actions by virtue of such power of attorney.

     (d) If the Stockholder Representative resigns or ceases to function in such capacity for any reason whatsoever, then the successor Stockholder Representative will be the Person that the Holders of a majority of the Fully Diluted Shares shall appoint; provided, however, that in the event for any reason no successor has been appointed within thirty (30) days following such resignation or cessation, then any Holder shall have the right to petition a court of competent jurisdiction for appointment of a successor Stockholder Representative.

     (e) The Stockholder Representative shall have no liability to Purchaser, the Surviving Corporation, any Holder or any other Person with respect to any action or inaction by the Stockholder Representative in his capacity as such, except that the foregoing shall not relieve the Stockholder Representative of any liability to any Holder with respect to any action or inaction which is finally determined by a court of competent

jurisdiction to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Stockholder Representative. Each Holder agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold the Stockholder Representative harmless from and against any and all liabilities, losses, costs, damages and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) reasonably incurred or suffered as a result of the performance of the Stockholder Representative’s duties under this Agreement, except to the extent that such losses are finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to result from willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of the Stockholder Representative. The fees, costs and expenses of the Stockholder Representative incurred following the Effective Time, including any fees and expenses incurred by it in connection with the retention of any legal counsel, experts (including expert witnesses), consultants and other representatives engaged by it whether involving a claim for indemnification or otherwise, shall be paid severally by the Holders, in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Percentages.
