STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT

This Stock Purchase Agreement (this "Agreement") is entered into as of July 31, 2015, by and among GENERAL EMPLOYMENT ENTERPRISES, INC., an Illinois corporation, or its designee ("Buyer"), and Tricia Dempsey ("Seller"). Buyer and Seller may be referred to collectively herein as the "Parties" or, individually, as a "Party."

Seller owns all of the outstanding capital stock of AGILE RESOURCES, INC., a Georgia corporation ("Target").

This Agreement contemplates a transaction in which Buyer will purchase from Seller, and Seller will sell to Buyer, all of the outstanding capital stock of Target ("Target Shares") in return for cash, stock and certain other consideration as set forth below.

Now, therefore, in consideration of the premises and the mutual promises herein made, and in consideration of the representations, warranties, and covenants herein contained, the Parties agree as follows.

§1. Definitions; Basic Transaction.

(a) Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement, the terms and variations thereof set forth in Exhibit A to this Agreement shall have the meanings given to them in Exhibit A.

(b) Basic Transaction. In accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Buyer agrees to purchase from Seller, and Seller agrees to sell to Buyer, all of Seller's Target Shares for the consideration specified below in §2.

(c) Closing. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the "Closing") shall take place via the electronic exchange of documents simultaneously with the execution hereof.

(d) Deliverables at Closing. At the Closing, (i) Seller will deliver to Buyer the various certificates, instruments, and documents referred to in §7 below, (ii) Buyer will deliver to Seller the various certificates, instruments, and documents referred to in §7 below, (iii) Seller will deliver to Buyer stock certificates representing all of the Target Shares accompanied by duly executed assignment documents for assignment to Buyer or Buyer's designee, and (iv) Buyer will deliver to Seller the consideration specified in §2 below.

§2. Purchase Price.

(a) Purchase Price. The aggregate "Purchase Price" for the Target Shares shall be Four Million Dollars ($4,000,000) in the form and subject to the adjustments and provisions set forth in this §2 and is payable as follows:

(i) "Cash" Payment to Seller. At Closing, Buyer shall pay Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) to Seller by wire transfer of immediately available U.S. federal funds, reduced by the amount of the Employee Bonuses (the "Cash Payment to Seller").

(ii) "Cash" Payment to Escrow Agent. As soon as reasonably practicable, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days, after Closing, an additional Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) shall be deposited by Buyer via wire transfer of immediately available U.S. federal funds to a mutually acceptable third party escrow agent (the "Escrow Agent") as part of the Purchase Price (the "Working Capital Escrow Funds"). The Working Capital Escrow Funds will be released to Seller, or Buyer or a combination of Seller and Buyer in accordance with §2 (v) below (Purchase Price Adjustment - Working Capital) and Appendix I.

(iii) Earnout Payment. Up to an additional Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) of the Purchase Price (the "Earnout") will be paid by Buyer by wire transfer of immediately available U.S. federal funds on or before September 30, 2016, subject to the terms of and in accordance with Appendix II.

(iv) Payment of Shares of GEE Common Stock. One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) of the Purchase Price will be paid in issued shares of GEE Common Stock. The number of shares issued will be based on the mean average closing price of shares of GEE Common Stock during the twenty (20) trading days preceding the date before the Closing Date; provided however, that if, during such twenty day trading period, Buyer pays a dividend in, splits, combines into a smaller number of shares, or issues by reclassification any additional shares of GEE Common Stock (a "Stock Event"), then the closing prices used in the above calculation shall be appropriately adjusted to provide the Seller the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such action. The shares of GEE Common Stock issued to the Seller are the "GEE Shares." The certificates of the GEE Shares will be delivered within ten (10) business days after Closing. One-half of the GEE Shares will be held in escrow with the Escrow Agent in accordance with the provisions of an escrow agreement in a form to be mutually agreed upon as soon as reasonably practicable, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days, after Closing(The "GEE Shares - Escrow Agreement").

(v) Purchase Price Adjustment -Working Capital. In accordance with Appendix I, the Purchase Price will be adjusted (positively or negatively) based upon the differences in the book value of the Closing Working Capital (as defined in Appendix I) as compared to a Benchmark Working Capital of $450,000 (such difference to be called the "NWC Adjustment Amount".) If the NWC Adjustment Amount is positive the Purchase Price will be increased by the NWC Adjustment Amount. If the NWC Adjustment Amount is negative, the Purchase Price will be decreased by the NWC Adjustment Amount. If the Purchase Price increases then Buyer will pay an amount equal to the increase to Seller within five (5) days of a final determination under Appendix I, and the Working Capital Escrow Funds will be released by the Escrow Agent to Seller. If the Purchase Price decreases then the Seller will pay the amount of the decrease to Buyer within five (5) days of a final determination under Appendix I, which first shall be funded from the Working Capital Escrow Funds by the Escrow Agent to the Buyer. If the Working Capital Escrow Funds exceed the payment due from Seller then the remaining balance of those funds after the payment to Buyer shall be released to Seller. For example, if (A) the Closing Working Capital exceeds the Benchmark Working Capital by Three Thousand Dollars ($3,000) then the Purchase Price will increase by Three Thousand Dollars ($3,000); or (B) if the Closing Working Capital is less than the Benchmark Working Capital by Three Thousand Dollars ($3,000) then the Purchase Price decreases by Three Thousand Dollars ($3,000).

(vi) Employee Bonuses. At Closing, the Company shall pay the Employee Bonuses via Company payroll account.

(i) Access to Information. Seller understands that an investment in the GEE Shares involves a high degree of risk and long term or permanent illiquidity, including, risk of loss of their entire investment. Seller has been given full and complete access to the Buyer for the purpose of obtaining such information as Seller or Seller's qualified representative has reasonably requested in connection with the decision to acquire the GEE Shares. Seller has received and reviewed copies of the Public Reports. Seller has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the officers of the Buyer regarding its business prospects, all as Seller (or Seller's investor's representatives) has deemed necessary to make an informed investment decision to purchase the GEE Shares.

(ii) Restricted Securities. (A) Seller has been advised that none of the GEE Shares have been registered under the Securities Act or any other applicable securities laws. Seller acknowledges that the GEE Shares will be issued as "restricted securities" as defined by Rule 144 promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act. None of the GEE Shares may be resold in the absence of an effective registration thereof under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws unless, in the opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Buyer, an applicable exemption from registration is available; (B) Seller is acquiring the GEE Shares for Seller's own account, and not as nominee or agent, for investment purposes only and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, a distribution, as that term is used in Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, in a manner which would require registration under the Securities Act or any state securities laws; (C) Seller understands and acknowledges that the certificates representing the GEE Shares will bear substantially the following legend:

"THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), OR APPLICABLE STATE LAW, AND NO INTEREST THEREIN MAY BE SOLD, DISTRIBUTED, ASSIGNED, OFFERED, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED UNLESS: (i) THERE IS AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS COVERING ANY SUCH TRANSACTION INVOLVING SAID SECURITIES; (ii) THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF LEGAL COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY STATING THAT SUCH TRANSACTION IS EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION; OR (iii) THE COMPANY OTHERWISE SATISFIES ITSELF THAT SUCH TRANSACTION IS EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION."

and (D) Seller acknowledges that an investment in the GEE Shares is not liquid and is transferable only under limited conditions. Seller acknowledges that such securities must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Seller is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act ("Rule 144"), which permits limited resale of restricted securities subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and that Rule 144 is not now available and, in the future, may not become available for resale of any of the GEE Shares.

(iii) Seller's Sophistication and Ability to Bear Risk of Loss. Seller is an Accredited Investor as that term is defined in Regulation D of the Securities Exchange Act, and is able to protect its interests in connection with the acquisition of the GEE Shares and can bear the economic risk of investment in such securities without producing a material adverse change in Seller's financial condition. Seller, either alone or with Seller's representative(s), otherwise has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that Seller is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the GEE Shares.

Buyer has made available to Seller, through the SEC's "EDGAR System," a correct and complete copy of each Public Report.

(iii) Financial Statements.

If at any time during the period from the Closing Date until the second anniversary of the Closing Date, the Buyer shall determine to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") a Registration Statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others of any of its equity securities (other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with stock option or other employee benefit plans and other than the Form S-1 currently subject to the SEC review), the Buyer shall send Seller written notice of such determination and, if within fifteen (15) business days after the date of such notice, Seller shall so request in writing, the Buyer shall include in such Registration Statement all or any part of the GEE Shares that Seller request to be registered, except that if, in connection with any underwritten public offering for the account of the Buyer the managing underwriter(s) thereof shall impose a limitation on the number of shares of Common Stock which may be included in the Registration Statement because, in such underwriter(s)' judgment, marketing or other factors dictate such limitation is necessary to facilitate public distribution, then the Buyer shall be obligated to include in such Registration Statement only such limited portion of the GEE Shares with respect to which Seller has requested inclusion hereunder as the underwriter shall permit. Any exclusion of GEE Shares shall be made on a pro rata basis with exclusions of any other issued and outstanding shares of the Buyer's common stock proposed to be included in such underwritten public offering. If an offering in connection with which Seller is entitled to registration under this Section 6(g) is an underwritten offering, then Seller shall, unless otherwise agreed by the Buyer, offer and sell such shares in an underwritten offering using the same underwriter or underwriters and on the same terms and conditions as other shares of Common Stock included in such underwritten offering.

(h) Personal Guaranties. Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, as soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing, releases of the Seller and her affiliates from any and all obligations or liabilities arising from and after Closing under the personal guaranties listed on Schedule 6(h) attached hereto (collectively, the "Seller Guaranties"); provided, that, if and to the extent such releases cannot be obtained, then the Buyer shall indemnify the guarantor(s) from any such obligations or liabilities arising from and after Closing pursuant to and subject to the provisions of §8 below.

§8. Remedies for Breaches of This Agreement.

(a) Survival of Representations and Warranties.The "Fundamental Representations and Warranties" of Seller are the representations and warranties of Seller in §3(a)(v) Target Shares and the following representations and warranties of Seller in §4: §4(a) Organization, Qualification and Corporate Power; 4(b) Capitalization; 4(e) Title to Assets; 4(i) Undisclosed Liabilities; 4(k) Tax Matters; and 4(x) Employee Benefits. All representations and warranties of Seller that are not Fundamental Representations and Warranties are the "Non-Fundamental Representations and Warranties." All representations and warranties of the Parties survive the Closing. The Non-Fundamental Representations and Warranties shall survive the Closing hereunder and continue in full force and effect for a period of eighteen (18) months thereafter. All of the other representations and warranties of the Parties contained in this Agreement (including the other representations and warranties of the Parties contained in §3 and §4A above and the Fundamental Representations and Warranties) shall survive the Closing and continue in full force and effect until thirty (30) days following the expiration of the applicable statutes of limitations (including any extension thereto). The covenants and agreements of the Parties shall survive the Closing in accordance with their terms.

(b) Indemnification Provisions for Buyer's Benefit. In the event Seller breaches any of Seller's representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained herein, and provided that Buyer makes a written claim for indemnification against Seller pursuant to §11(h) below within the applicable survival period (in §8(a) above) if there is an applicable survival period pursuant to §8(a) above), then Seller shall be obligated to indemnify Buyer from and against the entirety of any Adverse Consequences Buyer may incur (including any Adverse Consequences Buyer may incur after the end of any applicable survival period) resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the breach. In addition, Seller agrees to indemnify Buyer for any Adverse Consequences arising out of the matters disclosed on Disclosure Schedule 4(t).

Seller's indemnification obligations hereunder shall be subject to the following limitations and qualifications:

(i) Seller shall not have any obligation to indemnify Buyer for (A) a breach of any of the Non-Fundamental Representations and Warranties of Seller, (B) for the matters disclosed on Disclosure Schedule 4(t); or (C) as to matters indemnified against in §9(a) below, until Buyer has suffered Adverse Consequences by reason of all such breaches in excess of Forty Thousand Dollars ($40,000) ("Indemnification Deductible") after which point Seller will be obligated to indemnify Buyer from and against Adverse Consequences in excess of the Indemnification Deductible as provided herein;

(ii) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the aggregate liability of the Seller to the Buyer Indemnified Parties for indemnification claims hereunder shall under no circumstances exceed the amount of the Purchase Price;

(iii) there will be an aggregate ceiling in the amount equal to One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) ("Indemnification Ceiling") on the obligation of Seller to indemnify Buyer from and against Adverse Consequences resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by (A) a breach of any of the Non-Fundamental Representations and Warranties of Seller, or (B) for the matters disclosed on Disclosure Schedule 4(t);

(iv) Buyer's recourse to recover for a breach of any of the Non-Fundamental Representations and Warranties shall be limited solely to recourse against the GEE Shares in the Escrow Account and to offset against the Earnout (or if previously paid to recover an amount up to the amount of the paid Earnout). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Buyer is unable to recover the GEE Shares because they have been disposed of or encumbered, Buyer shall have the right to seek recovery of up to$1 million of cash from Seller personally (in addition to the Earnout). Except as provided in the preceding sentence, under no circumstances shall Buyer have the right of recourse against the One Million Eight Hundred Thirty Thousand Dollars ($1,830,000) of cash paid to Seller at Closing for a breach of the Non-Fundamental Representations and Warranties.

(v) In calculating the amount of any Adverse Consequences hereunder, the amount of such Adverse Consequences shall be reduced by any amounts recovered or recoverable by Buyer, as applicable, under insurance policies.

(vi) Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article 8, Adverse Consequences for any and all breaches of representations and warranties (including the Fundamental Representations) will be satisfied first against the GEE Shares held in escrow by the Escrow Agent before Buyer seeks recourse against other assets of Seller. (Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if the aggregate amount of Adverse Consequences asserted by Buyer exceeds the fair market value of the GEE Shares held in escrow, then Buyer may simultaneously pursue other assets of Seller, so long as in any such case recovery is made first against the GEE Shares held in escrow.)

(vii) No Party hereto shall be obligated to indemnify any other Person with respect to any Adverse Consequences with respect to any matter raised in the calculation of the adjustment of the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2(a)(v).

(viii) For purposes of this Section 8, any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation or warranty (other than the first sentence of Section 4(h)) shall be determined without regard to any materiality, Material Adverse Effect or other similar qualification contained in or otherwise applicable to such representation or warranty.

(c) Indemnification Provisions for Seller's Benefit. In the event Buyer breaches any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained herein, and provided that Seller makes a written claim for indemnification against Buyer pursuant to §11(h) below within the applicable survival period (in §8(a) above) then Buyer agrees to indemnify Seller from and against the entirety of any Adverse Consequences Seller may incur (including any Adverse Consequences Seller may incur after the end of any applicable survival period) resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the breach. In addition, in accordance with Section 6(h) above, Buyer agrees to indemnify Seller for any Adverse Consequences arising from and after the Closing Date under any Seller Guaranty, but excluding any Adverse Consequences that arise from a breach by Target or Seller prior to Closing with respect to the Personal Guaranties or the underlying liabilities being guaranteed.

(d) Matters Involving Third-Parties.

(i) If any third-party notifies either Party (the "Indemnified Party") with respect to any matter (a "Third-Party Claim") that may give rise to a claim for indemnification against the other Party (the "Indemnifying Party") under this §8, then the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party thereof in writing; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent) the Indemnifying Party is thereby prejudiced.

(ii) Any Indemnifying Party will have the right to assume the defense of the Third-Party Claim with counsel of his, her, or its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party at any time within fifteen (15) days after the Indemnified Party has given notice of the Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party must conduct the defense of the Third-Party Claim actively and diligently thereafter in order to preserve the rights and defenses of the Indemnified Party; and provided further that the Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of the Third-Party Claim.

(iii) So long as the Indemnifying Party has assumed, and is conducting the defense of the Third-Party Claim in accordance with §8(d)(ii) above, (A) the Indemnifying Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment on or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably withheld) unless the judgment or proposed settlement involves only the payment of money damages by the Indemnifying Party and does not impose an injunction or other equitable relief upon the Indemnified Party, and (B) the Indemnified Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment on or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (not to be unreasonably withheld).

(iv) In the event that the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party mutually agree that the Indemnified Party will assume and conduct the defense of the Third-Party Claim, (A) the Indemnified Party may defend against, and consent to the entry of any judgment on or enter into any settlement with respect to, the Third-Party Claim; provided that the Indemnified Person will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any compromise or settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Person, and (B) the Indemnifying Party will remain responsible for any Adverse Consequences the Indemnified Party may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Third-Party Claim to the fullest extent provided in this §8.

(iv) In the event that the Indemnifying Party fails to agree to the defense of the Third-Party Claim by the Indemnified Party and does not assume and conduct the defense of the Third-Party Claim in accordance with §8(d)(ii) above, (A) the Indemnified Party may defend against, and consent to the entry of any judgment on or enter into any settlement with respect to, the Third-Party Claim in any manner he, she, or it may reasonably deem appropriate and need not consult with or obtain the consent from the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith, and (B) the Indemnifying Party will remain responsible for any Adverse Consequences the Indemnified Party may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Third-Party Claim to the fullest extent provided in this §8.

(e) Determination of Adverse Consequences. Indemnification payments under this §8 and §9 (below) shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party without reduction for any Tax Benefits available to the Indemnified Party. The Parties shall make appropriate adjustments for insurance coverage and take into account the time cost of money (using the Applicable Rate as the discount rate) in determining Adverse Consequences for purposes of this §8. All indemnification payments under this §8 and §9 (below) shall be deemed adjustments to the Purchase Price.

(f) Exclusive Remedy. Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that the foregoing indemnification provisions in this §8 and the indemnification provisions of §9 shall be the exclusive remedy of Buyer and Seller against each other with respect to breaches of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement, and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement with the exception of actual fraud. Seller hereby agrees that she will not make any claim for indemnification against Target or Buyer by reason of the fact that she was a director, officer, employee, or agent of any such entity or was serving at the request of any such entity as a partner, trustee, director, officer, employee, or agent of another entity (whether such claim is for judgments, damages, penalties, fines, costs, amounts paid in settlement, losses, expenses, or otherwise and whether such claim is pursuant to any statute, charter document, bylaw, agreement, or otherwise) with respect to any action, suit, proceeding, complaint, claim, or demand brought by Buyer against Seller (whether such action, suit, proceeding, complaint, claim, or demand is pursuant to this Agreement, applicable law, or otherwise).

§9. Tax Matters.

The following provisions shall govern the allocation of responsibility as between Buyer and Seller for certain Tax matters following the Closing Date:

(a) Tax Indemnification. Seller shall indemnify Target and Buyer and hold them harmless from and against: (i) all Income and other Taxes (or the non-payment thereof) of Target for all taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date and the portion through the end of the Closing Date for any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date ("Pre-Closing Tax Period"); (ii) any and all Income and other Taxes of any member of an affiliated, consolidated, combined, or unitary group of which Target (or any predecessor) is or was a member on or prior to the Closing Date, including pursuant to Treasury Regulation §1.1502-6 or any analogous or similar state, local, or non-U.S. law or regulation; and (iii) any and all Income and other Taxes of any person (other than Target) imposed on Target as a transferee or successor, by contract or pursuant to any law, rule or regulation, which Taxes relate to an event or transaction occurring before the Closing; provided, however, that in the case of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above, Seller shall be liable only to the extent that such Income Taxes are in excess of the amount, if any, reserved for such Taxes (excluding any reserve for deferred Taxes established to reflect timing differences between book and Tax income) on the face of the Most Recent Balance Sheet (rather than in any notes thereto). Seller shall reimburse Buyer for any Taxes of Target that are the responsibility of Seller pursuant to this §9(a) within fifteen (15) Business Days after payment of such Taxes by Buyer or Target.

(b) Responsibility for Filing Tax Returns. Buyer shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Tax Returns for Target for all periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date that are filed after the Closing Date. Buyer shall permit Seller to review and comment on each such Tax Return described in the preceding sentence prior to filing and shall make all changes as are reasonably requested by Seller. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Seller shall include any income, gain, loss, deduction or other tax items for such periods on Seller's Tax Return in a manner consistent with the Schedule K-1 prepared by Target for such periods. Without limiting the generality of the immediately foregoing sentence, the Parties expressly agree that the Employee Bonuses, as well as any related payroll taxes or fees, shall be deemed to have been made prior to the Closing so that the associated tax deductions will inure to the benefit of the Seller.

(d) Refunds and Tax Benefits. Any Income Tax refunds that are received by Buyer or Target, and any amounts credited against Income Tax to which Buyer or Target become entitled, that relate to Income Tax periods or portions thereof ending on or before the Closing Date shall be for the account of Seller, and Buyer shall pay over to Seller any such refund or the amount of any such credit within fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt or entitlement thereto. In addition, to the extent that a claim for refund or a proceeding results in a payment or credit against Income Tax by a taxing authority to Buyer or Target of any amount accrued on the Most Recent Balance Sheet, Buyer shall pay such amount to Seller within fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt or entitlement thereto.

(e) Cooperation on Tax Matters.

(i) Buyer, Target and Seller shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other Party's request) the provision of records and information reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation, or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Target, Seller and Buyer agree: (A) to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to Target relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by Buyer or Seller, any extensions thereof) of the respective taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any taxing authority; and (B) to give the other Party reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if the other party so requests, Target or Seller, as the case may be, shall allow the other Party to take possession of such books and records.

(ii) Buyer and Seller further agree, upon request, to use their best efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any governmental authority or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby).

(f) Certain Taxes and Fees. All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein shall be paidby Seller when due, and the Party required by applicable law shall file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other Taxes and fees, and, if required by applicable law, the other Party/Parties shall, and shall cause their Affiliates to, join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation. The expense of such filings shall be paid one-half by Buyer and one-half by Seller.

§10Section 338(h)(10) Election. At Buyer's option, Target and Seller shall join with Buyer in making an election under Section 338(h)(10) (and any corresponding election under state and local tax law), in accordance with the following provisions.

(a) Buyer's payment to Sellers for costs of Section 338(h)(10) Election as additional consideration for Target Shares. As additional consideration for the purchase of the Target Shares under this Agreement, and in consideration for the agreement of Seller to make the Section 338(h)(10) Election pursuant to subsection (e) below, Buyer shall pay to the Sellers such amount as is required to cause Sellers to be in the same after-tax economic position with respect to the sale of the Target Shares in which they would have been if the Section 338 Election not been made (the "Section 338 Price Increase"). The Parties agree that any payment among the Parties in respect of the amount of Section 338 Price Increase (other than interest thereon) shall be deemed to be an adjustment in the amount of the Purchase Price. Each payment by Buyer shall be made when reasonably requested by Seller, but Buyer is not required to make the payment in advance of ten (10) days prior to the last date on which the applicable Tax amount would be due after taking into account available extensions. Seller agrees to file applicable extensions for the applicable Tax returns if reasonably requested in writing by Buyer.

(b) Computation and payment of estimated Section 338 Price Increase. The Company shall cause Bennett Thrasher LLP (the "Accountant") to prepare and deliver to the Parties a computation of the Section 338 Price Increase (as defined below) as soon as practical after December 31, 2015.

(c) Factors included in the Section 338 Price Increase. The Section 338 Price Increase shall take into account, without limitation, the following:

(1) All Taxes imposed on Sellers as a result of the making of the Section 338(h)(10) Election (including Income Taxes on the increases to the Purchase Price required under this Section), to the extent such Taxes exceed the amount of such Taxes that would have been imposed on the Sellers if the Section 338(h)(10) Election had not been made with respect to the acquisition of the Shares hereunder; and

(2) All other reasonable costs incurred by Sellers as a result of the Section 338(h)(10) Election, including reasonable costs incurred in connection with review of documents, computations and tax filings or participation in examinations related to the Section 338(h)(10) Election and its consequences (including the computations required under this Section) (the "Incidental Costs") subject to a maximum payment to the Accountant of $5,000.

(d) Assumptions controlling computation of Section 338 Price Increase. The Section 338 Price Increase shall be computed using the following assumptions:

(1) Sellers would have recognized long-term capital gain and no ordinary income on the sale of the Target Shares, except for the amount reasonably allocated by Buyer to the Non-Competition Agreement; and any payments would have been required to be characterized as interest);

(2) Sellers have no other installment receivables arising in the year of the Closing which are being reported on the installment method pursuant to Section 453 of the Code;

(e) Agreement to make Section 338(h)(10) Election and file consistently. Sellers shall join with the Buyer in making an election under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code (and any similar elections under state, local, or foreign tax law) (collectively, a "Section 338(h)(10) Election") with respect to the purchase and sale of the Shares hereunder, provided that the Buyer shall be obligated to pay to Sellers an amount equal to the excess if any of Seller's Section 338 Price Increase computed pursuant to subsection (g)(i) over the estimated Section 338 Price Increase paid pursuant to subsection (b) above, on or before the applicable dates required in this Section 10. For Income Tax purposes, Buyer and Sellers will report the stock purchase as a purchase and sale, respectively, of the assets of Target, where such treatment is the required consequence of the Section 338 Election. Sellers shall include any income, gain, loss, deduction or other tax items for the taxable period ending on the Closing Date on the Sellers' personal Tax Return in a manner consistent with the Form K-1s (or their equivalent) furnished by Buyer to Sellers.

(f) Preparation and filing of Section 338 Forms.

(i) At least ninety (90) days prior to the latest permissible date for filing the Section 338(h)(10) Election, Buyer shall prepare and submit to Sellers the Section 338 Forms required to be filed to make such election. With the submission of such Section 338 Forms, Buyer shall advise Sellers in writing of those actions that Buyer considers necessary and appropriate for the Sellers to take to effect, preserve, or perfect a timely Section 338(h)(10) Election. Buyer shall not file any Section 338 Form unless it shall have obtained Sellers' written consent thereto, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(ii) On or prior to the thirtieth (30th) day after Sellers' receipt of any Section 338 Form from Buyer, Sellers shall deliver to Buyer either (A) such executed Section 338 Form and a consent to its filing or (B) a written notice specifying in reasonable detail all disputed items and the basis therefor. If Buyer and Sellers have been unable to resolve all disputed matters relating to the Section 338 Form within thirty (30) days after Buyer's receipt of the written notice described in clause (B) above, any remaining disputed issues shall be resolved pursuant to the same procedures set forth in Section 3(c) of Appendix I.

(iii) Buyer will have the sole responsibility for assuring that the Section 338(h)(10) Election is validly and timely made. Sellers (to the extent so advised by the Buyer pursuant to subsection (f)(i)) and the Buyer shall comply fully with all filing and other requirements necessary to effectuate such Section 338(h)(10) Election on a timely basis and agree to cooperate in good faith with each other in the preparation and timely filing of any Tax Returns required to be filed in connection with the making of such Section 338(h)(10) Election.

(iv) Sellers and Buyer shall use their best efforts to mutually agree upon the initial determination and allocation among the assets of the Company of the "aggregate deemed sale price" and "adjusted grossed up basis" (within the meaning of Treas. Regs. Sections 1.338-4 and 1.338-5 respectively), as soon as practicable after December 31, 2015. Such allocation shall be made in accordance with Section 338 of the Code and the regulations thereunder. If Buyer and Sellers are unable to agree upon such determination or allocation within such time period, then such determination and allocation shall be made pursuant to the same procedures set forth in Section 3(c) of Appendix I. When finally determined hereunder (whether by agreement or otherwise) such allocation shall be binding upon each of Sellers and Buyer for all purposes (including financial accounting purposes, financial and regulatory reporting purposes and Tax purposes).

(g) Computation and payment of revised Section 338 Price Increase.

(i) Buyer promptly shall cause the Independent Accountants serving as arbiter to prepare a recomputation of the Section 338 Price Increase upon receipt of written notice from Seller to Buyer that such a recomputation is necessary to reflect either a change to the income recognized by reason of the Section 338(h)(10) Election (including by reason of a change in the Purchase Price) or a redetermination by a taxing authority of the effect on Sellers of the Section 338(h)(10) Election that is inconsistent with the most recent computations of the Section 338 Price Increase. Subsequent payments between the Parties as a result of any subsequent adjustments to the Section 338 Price Increase amount shall be made within five (5) business days after the date that a revised computation of the Section 338 Price Increase is determined by the Arbiter and provided to the Parties.

(ii) In the case of any payment in respect of the Section 338 Price Increase under this Section, Buyer shall pay with such Section 338 Price Increase payment interest on the amount payable at the rate of 6% per annum from the Closing Date to the date of payment.

(h) Loans to pay accelerated Tax liabilities. To the extent that the effect of the Section 338 Election is to create a timing difference with respect to the payment of Taxes, rather than a permanent difference in the amount of Tax imposed (for example, by reason of a reduction in the available deferral of Tax under the installment method under Section 453 of the Code with respect to any deferred payments for the Target Shares payable under this Agreement), at the request of Sellers, Buyer shall loan an amount to Seller equal to the amount of Taxes with respect to any gain that is required to be paid by Sellers in advance of time such Taxes would otherwise be payable (the "Tax Acceleration Amount"). The loans of the Tax Acceleration Amount shall be disbursed to Sellers not later than 5 days prior to the date that such increase in Tax is required to be paid by Seller. The Tax Acceleration Amount loaned shall be repayable by Sellers without interest on the dates and to the extent that the accelerated Tax liability would have been payable by Seller had the Section 338 Election not been made.

§11. Miscellaneous.

(a) Intentionally Omitted.

(b) Press Releases and Public Announcements. None of the Seller, the Target, or any officer, employee, representative or agent of the Target, will issue any press release or other public announcement regarding the proposed Agreement. Seller and Target shall use best efforts to cause Target's employees to not disclose any information about the transaction or confidential GEE information that is non-public or trade in Buyer's stock or disseminate insider information unless approved in advance by Buyer's counsel in writing. Prior to Closing, no clients or employees of either Party will be contacted by the other Party or otherwise informed about a possible transaction unless mutually agreed upon by the Parties. After Closing, no client or employee notifications will be made unless approved in writing by the Buyer. Once Closing has occurred, only the Buyer will make any announcement at its sole discretion. The Buyer will not announce any transaction prior to Closing unless the Parties mutually agree to such disclosure, or it is required to do so as determined by Buyer's counsel because of SEC rules, regulations and interpretations.

(c) No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as provided in §8 above, this Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any Person other than the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

(d) Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the documents referred to herein) constitutes the entire agreement among the Parties and supersedes any prior understandings, agreements, or representations by or among the Parties, written or oral, to the extent they relate in any way to the subject matter hereof.

(e) Succession and Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties named herein and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No Party may assign either this Agreement or any of his, her, or its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior written approval of Buyer and Seller; provided, however, that Buyer may: (i) assign any or all of its rights and interests hereunder to one (1) or more of its Affiliates; and (ii) designate one (1) or more of its Affiliates to perform its obligations hereunder (in any or all of which cases Buyer nonetheless shall remain responsible for the performance of all of its obligations hereunder).

(f) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one (1) or more counterparts (including by means of facsimile), each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.

(g) Headings. The section headings contained in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

(h) Notices.All notices, requests, demands, claims, and other communications hereunder shall be in writing. Any notice, request, demand, claim, or other communication hereunder shall be deemed duly given: (i) when delivered personally to the recipient; (ii) one (1) Business Day after being sent to the recipient by reputable overnight courier service (charges prepaid); (iii) one (1) Business Day after being sent to the recipient by facsimile transmission or electronic mail; or (iv) four (4) Business Days after being mailed to the recipient by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid, and addressed to the intended recipient as set forth below:

Closing Working Capital means the Working Capital of the Target at Closing.

Current Assets means the current assets of the Target determined in accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with the Most Recent Balance Sheet (provided that where the Most Recent Balance Sheet is inconsistent with GAAP, GAAP shall control), including but not limited to the following, in each case without duplication: Cash and Cash Equivalents; accounts receivable, current portion of notes receivable; prepaid expenses; deposits; COBRA receivables and accrued revenue.

For the avoidance, the Employee Bonuses paid at Closing shall not be treated as Current Liabilities for this calculation as they are a reduction of purchase price.

Current Assets: $1,280,302.15

Current Liabilities: $807,213.88

3. WORKING CAPITAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEDURE.

Within ten (10) days after written request for access by Seller, Seller shall be given reasonable access during reasonable business hours to (and copies of) all of Target's applicable books, records, and other documents, including work papers, worksheets, notes, and schedules used in preparation of the Revenue Statement, other than work papers that Buyer considers proprietary, such as internal control documentation, engagement planning, time control and audit sign off, and quality control work papers.

If within thirty (30) days following delivery of the Closing Working Capital calculation Seller has not given Buyer a written statement (the "Objection Statement") of its objection as to the Closing Working Capital calculation (which statement shall state the basis of Seller's objections with reasonable particularity), then the Closing Working Capital calculated by Buyer shall be binding and conclusive on the parties and be used in computing the NWC Adjustment Amount (if any). Within three (3) business days after the calculation of the Closing Working Capital becomes binding and conclusive on the parties, if there is a NWC Adjustment Amount, Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, shall make the wire transfer payment provided for in this Appendix; or

If, however, Seller duly and timely gives Buyer the Objection Statement, and if Seller and Buyer fail to resolve the issues outstanding with respect to the Closing Financial Statements and the calculation of the Closing Working Capital within thirty (30) days of Buyer's receipt of Seller's Objection Statement, Seller and Buyer shall submit the issues remaining in dispute (the "Remaining Disputed Issues") to Justin Vanfleet, Friedman LLP, independent public accountants (the "Independent Accountants") for resolution applying the principles, policies and practices referred to in this Appendix. If Remaining Disputed Issues are submitted to the Independent Accountants for resolution, (i) Seller and Buyer shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Independent Accountants such work papers and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues as the Independent Accountants may request and are available to that party or its agents and shall be afforded the opportunity to present to the Independent Accountants any material relating to the disputed issues and to discuss the issues with the Independent Accountants; (ii) the determination by the Independent Accountants, as set forth in a notice to be delivered to both Seller and Buyer within sixty (60) days of the submission to the Independent Accountants of the Remaining Disputed Issues, shall be final, binding and conclusive on the parties and shall be used in the calculation of the Closing Working Capital; and (iii) fees and costs incurred for such Independent Accountants as a result of such dispute shall be allocated between Buyer and Seller in proportion to the respective amounts of the difference between Seller's calculation of the Remaining Disputed Issues and Buyer's calculation of the Remaining Disputed Issues (the "Total Disputed Amount") which are resolved against them. For example, if with respect to the Remaining Disputed Issues, Buyer calculates Closing Working Capital to be $100x, and Seller calculates Closing Working Capital to be $150x (so that the Total Disputed Amount is $50x); and the Independent Accountants determine that Closing Working Capital is $140x ($10x is resolved against Seller, and $40x is resolved against Buyer), then the fees and expenses of the Independent Accountants would be allocated 80% to Buyer (i.e., $40x/$50x) and 20% (i.e., $10x/$50x) to Seller.

	(c)	Buyer shall not undertake any subterfuge, scheme, device, plan, activity, strategy or other transaction, whether or not legal, a primary purpose of which is to lessen or evade their obligations under the Earnout Payment.

	(d)	Buyer shall provide reasonably sufficient resources, consistent with the past practices of Seller, to support the Business throughout the Earnout Period.

	(e)	If Buyer breaches any of the Covenants in this Section 3, then Seller shall promptly notify Buyer of the breach and Buyer shall have a period of ten (10) days to cure the breach.

4. PROCEDURE.

	(a)	Buyer shall maintain separate accounting books and records for the Target during the Earnout Period. Promptly following the end of the Earnout Period, Buyer shall prepare statement of the revenues and Gross Margin of the Target for the Earnout Period, which shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP and, to the extent not inconsistent with GAAP, the past practices of the Target (the "Revenue Statement"). Buyer shall deliver the Revenue Statement to Seller within forty-five (45) days following the end of the Earnout Period.

	(b)	Seller shall be given reasonable access during reasonable business hours to (and copies of) all of Target's applicable books, records, and other documents, including work papers, worksheets, notes, and schedules used in preparation of the Revenue Statement, other than work papers that Buyer considers proprietary, such as internal control documentation, engagement planning, time control and audit sign off, and quality control work papers.

	(c)	If, within forty-five (45) days following delivery of the Revenue Statement to Seller, Seller has not given Buyer notice of an objection as to any amounts set forth on the Revenue Statement (which notice shall state in reasonable detail the basis of Seller's objection) (the "Objection Statement"), the Revenue Statement as computed by Buyer will be final, binding, and conclusive on the parties.

	(d)	If Seller timely gives Buyer an Objection Statement, and if Seller and Buyer fail to resolve the issues raised in the Objection Statement within thirty (30) days after giving the Objection Statement, Seller and Buyer shall submit the issues remaining in dispute (the "Remaining Disputed Earnout Issues") for resolution to the "Independent Accountants" (see Appendix 1, Paragraph 1 for definition), and follow the provisions set forth in Paragraph 3(e) below.

	(e)	The Parties shall follow the same procedures to resolve the Remaining Disputed Earnout Issues as are described under Appendix I, Paragraph 3(b), to resolve disputed issues regarding the NWC Adjustment Amount. The Independent Accountants shall be directed to resolve only the Remaining Disputed Earnout Issues and render a written report on their resolution of disputed issues with respect to the Revenue Statement as promptly as practicable, but no later than sixty (60) days after the date on which the Independent Accountants are engaged. Any determination by the Independent Accountants will not be outside the range established by the amounts in: (i) the Revenue Statement; and (ii) Seller's proposed adjustments thereto. Such determination will be final, binding, and conclusive on the Parties. Fees and costs incurred for such Independent Accountants as a result of such dispute shall be allocated between Buyer and Seller in the same manner as under Appendix 1 with regard to disputes concerning the NWC Adjustment Amount.
