1.3 Interpretation. The words “hereof,” “herein,” and “hereunder” and words of similar import, when used in this Agreement, shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. Terms defined in the singular shall have correlative meanings when used in the plural, and vice versa. The headings herein are for convenience of reference only, do not constitute part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or otherwise affect any of the provisions hereof. Where a reference in this Agreement is made to a Section, such reference shall be to a Section of this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.”

In addition, each representation and warranty set forth in this Agreement will be given independent effect so that if a particular representation or warranty proves to be incorrect or is breached, the fact that another representation or warranty concerning the same or similar subject matter is correct or is not breached will not affect the incorrectness or breach of the initial representation or warranty. No investigation by or Knowledge of a party or its Representatives, before or after the Closing, will affect in any manner any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of another party set forth in this Agreement or such party’s right to rely thereon, and all representations, warranties, covenants and agreements will survive any such investigation.

This Agreement has been reviewed, negotiated and accepted by all parties and their attorneys and will be construed and interpreted according to the ordinary meaning of the words so as fairly to accomplish the purposes and intentions of the parties.

The Independent Accountant’s determination of all such matters shall be binding on the Buyer and Seller Parent and shall not be subject to appeal. Upon the agreement of Buyer Parent and Seller Parent or the decision of the Independent Accountant, then the Closing Date Statement, as so adjusted (if applicable) (the “Final Closing Date Statement”), and the Closing Date Balance Sheet, as so adjusted (if applicable) (the “Final Closing Date Balance Sheet”), shall be final, conclusive and binding against Buyer Parent and Seller Parent.

The amount of any payment to be made pursuant to this Section 2.6(e) (the “Purchase Price Adjustment”) shall be paid in immediately available funds.

The Escrowed Proceeds shall be administered in accordance with the Escrow Agreement. The Escrowed Proceeds will be held by the Escrow Agent for payment pursuant to Article 12 (“Survival; Indemnification”) and the Escrow Agreement.

2.8 Prorations. With respect to accrued Real Property, Personal Property and other Taxes, utility and similar payments arising from the ownership or use of the Assets and the operation of the Business, the accrued rents and other payments under the Real Property Leases, the Personal Property Leases and the Assumed Contracts and similar accrued items all as relating to a Straddle Period, the Buyer shall be responsible for the pro rata portion thereof based upon the number of days in such Straddle Period following the Closing Date as a percentage of the total number of days in such Straddle Period.

2.9 Purchase Price Allocation.

(a) The Purchase Price (plus Assumed Liabilities, to the extent properly taken into account under the Code), increased or decreased, as the case may be, by the Purchase Price Adjustment, shall be allocated among the Assets in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder (and any similar provision of state, local or foreign Law, as appropriate) (the “Allocation”). To the extent necessary to determine the amount of Transfer Taxes or other Taxes required to be paid at or in connection with the Closing, a preliminary Allocation (the “Preliminary Allocation”) shall be prepared by Duff & Phelps at least thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date. The Seller Parent shall be responsible for one-third (1/3) of the fees and costs of the engagement of Duff & Phelps but only up to the amount of $16,667. The Buyer Parent shall be responsible for all the remaining fees and costs of the engagement of Duff & Phelps. Seller Parent and Buyer Parent shall work in good faith to resolve any disputes relating to the Preliminary Allocation. The engagement of Duff & Phelps shall include reasonable assurances of confidentiality and use of information of Seller Parent,

- 17 -

Buyer Parent and their respective Affiliates. If Seller Parent and Buyer Parent are unable to resolve any such dispute regarding the Preliminary Allocation within ten (10) days of Seller Parent’s delivery of the Preliminary Allocation to Buyer Parent, such dispute shall be resolved promptly by the Independent Accountant, the costs of which shall be borne equally by Seller Parent and Buyer Parent. Within sixty (60) days after the determination of the Purchase Price Adjustment, Duff & Phelps shall deliver to Seller Parent and Buyer Parent a final Allocation (the “Final Allocation”). Seller Parent and Buyer Parent shall work in good faith to resolve any disputes relating to the Final Allocation. If Seller Parent and Buyer Parent are unable to resolve any such dispute regarding the Final Allocation within ten (10) days of Seller Parent’s delivery of the Final Allocation to Buyer Parent, such dispute shall be resolved promptly by the Independent Accountant, the costs of which shall be borne equally by Seller Parent and Buyer Parent.

(b) If the Purchase Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, the Final Allocation shall be adjusted in a manner consistent with the procedures set forth in Section 2.9(a) above and in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.1060-1(c).

(c) Seller Parent and Buyer Parent shall file all Tax Returns (including IRS Form 8594) consistent with the Final Allocation. Neither Seller Parent nor Buyer Parent shall take any tax position inconsistent with such Final Allocation and neither Seller Parent nor Buyer Parent shall agree to any proposed adjustment to the Final Allocation by any Tax authority without first giving the other party prior written notice; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall prevent Seller Parent or Buyer Parent from settling any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Tax authority based upon or arising out of the Final Allocation, and neither Seller Parent nor Buyer Parent shall be required to litigate before any court any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Tax authority challenging such Final Allocation. Not later than thirty (30) days prior to the filing of their respective IRS Forms 8594 relating to this transaction, each of Seller Parent and Buyer Parent shall deliver to the other party a copy of its Form 8594.

2.10 Title and Risk. Title to the Assets shall not pass until Closing.

(a) The Sellers shall continue to carry on the Business for their own benefit and at their own risk up to Closing. The Assets shall be at the risk of the Buyer from Closing.

12.4 Notice of Claims.

(a) Third Party Claims.

(i) If any third party shall notify the Buyer or Seller Parent (the “Indemnified Party”) with respect to any matter (a “Third Party Claim”) which may give rise to a Claim for indemnification against the other party (the “Indemnifying Party”) under this Article 12, then the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party thereof in writing; provided, however, that the failure to give such notification shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually prejudiced as a result of such failure.

(ii) The Indemnifying Party will have the right at any time to assume and thereafter conduct the defense of the Third Party Claim with counsel of its choice and which such counsel shall be satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party will not enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party unless (A) the judgment or proposed settlement releases the Indemnified Party completely in connection with such Third Party Claim; (B) there is no finding or admission of any violation of Laws or any violation of the rights of any Person; and (C) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnifying Party, which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(iii) In the event that the Indemnifying Party timely defends, contests or otherwise protects the Indemnified Party against a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall nevertheless have the right to, but shall not be obligated to, participate at its own expense in the defense of the Third Party Claim with counsel of its own choosing; provided that if the Indemnified Party reasonably concludes that counsel to the Indemnifying Party has a conflict of interest, the Indemnifying Party will be responsible for the fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party’s counsel (but not more than one law firm per jurisdiction).

- 62 -

(iv) In the event the Indemnifying Party fails to defend, contest or otherwise protect against any Third Party Claim in a timely matter, the Indemnified Party may, but shall not be obligated to, defend, contest or otherwise protect against the same, and make any compromise or settlement thereof and shall be entitled to recover the entire cost thereof from the Indemnifying Party, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, disbursements and all amounts paid as a result of such Claim or suit or the compromise or settlement thereof; provided, however, that if the Indemnifying Party subsequently undertakes the defense of such matter, the Indemnified Party shall not be entitled to recover from the Indemnifying Party its costs thereafter incurred in the defense thereof other than the reasonable cost of investigation undertaken by the Indemnified Party and reasonable cost of providing assistance.

(v) Regardless of whether the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate in the defense of such Claim. Such cooperation shall include the provision and access to the defending party of documents, information, books and records reasonably requested by the defending party and material to such Claim; and making available employees as may be reasonably requested by the defending party and as shall be reasonably required in connection with the defense of such Claim and Proceeding resulting therefrom.

(b) Other Claims. In the event that the Buyer or Seller Parent should have a Claim for indemnification under this Article 12 against the other party that does not involve a Third Party Claim, the party seeking indemnification shall promptly deliver to the party from whom indemnification is sought written notice of such Claim detailing the basis for such Claim.

The Sellers shall cooperate in and provide reasonable assistance to the Buyer in so conducting such defense. The Buyer shall have the right to make Claims against the Escrowed Proceeds for any and all Buyer Losses as they are incurred arising from the Neology Lawsuits to be paid in accordance with the Escrow Agreement.

12.5 Mitigation of Losses; Adjustment to Purchase Price; No Consequential Damages.

(a) The amount of any Buyer’s Loss subject to indemnification hereunder or of any Claim therefor shall be calculated net of (i) any accruals or reserves on the Final Closing Date Statement that specifically relate to the matter(s) for which indemnification is claimed, (ii) any amounts actually recovered by the Buyer, any FS Tech Entities or any of their Affiliates pursuant to any indemnification by or indemnification agreement with any non-affiliated third party (net of all direct collection expenses), and (iii) any insurance proceeds or other cash receipts or sources of reimbursement received as an offset against such Buyer’s Loss (net of all direct collection expenses and premium increases) actually received by the Buyer or any FS Tech Entity or any of their Affiliates on account of such loss.

(b) No Indemnified Party shall be entitled to double recovery (or recovery more than once) for the amount of any losses indemnified by the Indemnifying Party under this Article 12 (“Losses”) suffered by such party to the extent such party has otherwise been compensated for such Losses (even if such Losses may have resulted from the breach or inaccuracy of more than one of the representations and warranties or covenants herein). For the avoidance of doubt, no Buyer Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover for any breach by Seller Parent of any of the representations or warranties contained in Article 3 that are also Claims of Neology (or any Affiliate or successor thereof) in the Neology Lawsuits.

- 63 -

(c) Each Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall take reasonable steps to mitigate all Losses, costs, expenses and damages.

(d) All indemnification payments made hereunder shall be treated by the parties hereto as adjustments to the Purchase Price.

12.6 Payment of Buyer’s Loss. Except with respect to Buyer’s Losses under Section 12.2(a)(i)(F) and any related Claims made under Section 12.2(a)(ii) and subject to the applicable limitations set forth in this Article 12, all liabilities of Seller Parent under this Article 12: (i) shall first be paid or reimbursed out of the Escrowed Proceeds in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement and (ii) after exhaustion of the Escrowed Proceeds or upon the release of the Escrowed Proceeds in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement, any Claim for indemnification by the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall be satisfied by Seller Parent.

(a) Between the date of this Agreement and the Closing, Seller Parent shall give prompt notice to Buyer Parent upon becoming aware of any and all facts, conditions, occurrences, changes, and other matters in each case occurring after the date hereof that will cause the representations and warranties of Seller Parent contained herein (including the Schedules) not to be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Closing Date with the same effect as though made on and as of the Closing Date. Such notice shall specifically refer to this Section 13.9, shall be true, complete and correct and in reasonable detail, and shall specifically identify each representation or warranty so affected and the specific manner in which it is so affected.

13.11 Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be governed, construed, and enforced in accordance with the Laws of the State of Minnesota without regard to the conflicts of law principles thereof.

13.12 Venue. Any and all actions brought in court shall be filed in the state or federal district court located in St. Paul, Minnesota and the parties specifically consent and submit to the jurisdiction and venue of each such state or federal court. Each party further agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to such party’s respective address set forth above shall be

- 68 -

effective service of process for any action with respect to any matters to which it has submitted to jurisdiction in this Section 13.12. Each party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action arising out of this Agreement, the Other Agreements or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby in any such court, and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

13.13 Waiver of Jury Trial Rights. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO EXPRESSLY WAIVES ITS RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LAWSUIT OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO OR ARISING IN ANY WAY FROM THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER AGREEMENTS OR THE MATTERS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH OF THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT, THAT EACH HAS ALREADY RELIED ON THIS WAIVER IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THAT EACH WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON THIS WAIVER IN FUTURE DEALINGS. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO FURTHER REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT EACH HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL AND THAT EACH KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL.

13.14 No Third-Party Rights. Other than sections which are specifically for the benefit of the Buyer Indemnified Parties or the Seller Indemnified Parties, this Agreement is not intended and shall not be construed to create any rights in any Persons other than the Buyer and the Sellers, and no Person shall assert any rights as third-party beneficiary hereunder.

13.15 Sales and Transfer Taxes. Except as is contemplated by Section 7.2 hereof, the Buyer and Seller Parent shall be equally responsible for and each pay fifty percent (50%) of all applicable sales, transfer, stamp, documentary, use, filing and other similar Taxes and fees (“Transfer Taxes”) that may become due or payable (and are not subject to an exemption) as a result of the sale, conveyance, assignment, transfer or delivery of the Assets or the Business, whether levied on the Buyer or any Seller. The Buyer and the Sellers agree to file all necessary documentation (including Tax Returns) with respect to such Transfer Taxes in a timely manner, and, if required by applicable Law, the Buyer and the Sellers will, and shall cause their Affiliates, to join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and documentation. At the Closing, the Sellers shall execute and deliver to the Buyer any certificates or other documents as the Buyer may reasonable request to claim available exemptions from the payment of sales, transfer, stamp, documentary, use, filing or other such similar Taxes and fees under applicable Law.

13.17 Specific Performance.

13.18 Dispute Resolution.

(a) Any disagreement or dispute between the parties arising out of or related to this Agreement or the breach or making hereof (a “Dispute”) shall be resolved in the manner provided in this Section 13.18. Should there develop any Dispute, either party may, by written notice to the other party,

- 69 -

request that such Dispute be referred to the Vice President and General Manager of the Traffic Safety Systems Division, 3M Company and the General Counsel of the Seller Parent, or to such other person as the General Counsel shall so designate (the “Principals”), who shall negotiate in good faith to attempt to resolve the Dispute. No settlement reached under this Section 13.18(a) shall be binding on the parties until reduced to a writing signed on behalf of the parties by the Principals.

(b) Should the procedure outlined in Section 13.18(a) fail to bring about a resolution of each outstanding Dispute within 30 days following the giving of the notice referred to therein, then either party may initiate a voluntary, non-binding mediation conducted by a mutually-agreed mediator. Should the parties for any reason be unable to agree upon a mediator, they shall request the clerk of court of the Ramsey County District Court in the State of Minnesota to appoint a capable mediator for them. Seller Parent and Buyer Parent shall each bear one-half of the costs and expenses of the mediation and shall endeavor in good faith to resolve therein each outstanding Dispute. No settlement reached under this Section 13.18(b) shall be binding on the parties until reduced to a writing signed on behalf of the parties by the Principals.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided in this Section 13.18, and without prejudice to the above procedures, either party may at any time, in connection with any Dispute, apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for temporary injunctive or other provisional judicial relief if in such party’s sole judgment such action is necessary to avoid irreparable damage or to preserve the status quo until such time as the Dispute is otherwise resolved in accordance with this Section 13.18.

13.19 Confidentiality. The terms of the Confidentiality Agreement are hereby incorporated herein by reference and shall continue in full force and effect until the Closing, at which time such Confidentiality Agreement and the obligations of the Buyer under this Section 13.19 shall terminate. If this Agreement is, for any reason, terminated prior to the Closing, the Confidentiality Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.

13.20 Compliance with Bulk Sales Laws. Subject to Section 12.2(a)(i)(E), the Buyer and the Sellers hereby waive compliance by the Buyer and the Sellers with the bulk sales Law and any other similar Laws in any applicable jurisdiction in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

13.21 Survivability of Provisions After Termination. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Article 11 hereof, it shall become null and void and have no further force and effect, except as provided in Section 11.5 and Article 13 which shall survive termination and except that nothing herein shall relieve any party hereto for a breach by such party of the terms of this Agreement. Upon any termination of this Agreement, each party hereto will return or destroy all documents, work papers and all other material of the other party relating to the transactions contemplated hereby and all copies of such materials, where so obtained before or after the execution hereof, to the party furnishing the same.
