1.4 Purchase Price Adjustments.

(a) At least five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing, the Company shall prepare and deliver to the Buyer, and the Company and the Buyer shall finalize, an Estimated Closing Statement. If the Parties are unable to agree on an Estimated Closing Statement, and the Parties’ respective good faith estimates of Estimated Closing Working Capital are less than $500,000 apart then solely for the purposes of Closing and without affecting the remaining terms of this Section 1.4, the Parties shall agree that for the purposes of the Estimated Closing Statement, the Estimated Closing Working Capital shall be the average of the figures submitted by the Buyer and the Company. If the amount of the Estimated Closing Working Capital shown on the Estimated Closing Statement does not equal the Target Working Capital, then the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the amount of the Estimated Working Capital Deficit, if any, or increased by the amount of the Estimated Working Capital Surplus, if any. Such adjustments to the Purchase Price pursuant to this Section 1.4(a) shall be referred to herein collectively as the “Estimated Closing Adjustment.” The Estimated Closing Adjustment shall be determined without regard to the limitations set forth in Section 9.4 and Section 9.5 hereof.

(b) Within seventy-five (75) days following the Closing Date, the Buyer shall cause the Company to prepare and deliver to the Member a Closing Statement, which shall set forth the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Working Capital (the “Closing Statement”), and a schedule based upon the Closing Statement setting forth any adjustments to the Estimated Closing Adjustment (the aggregate amount of such adjustments, collectively, the “Closing Adjustment”). The Member shall assist the Buyer in the preparation of the Closing Statement if requested by the Buyer.

(c) The Member shall have a period of thirty (30) days after receipt of the Closing Statement to notify the Buyer of the Member’s election to accept or reject the Closing Statement. During such period, the Buyer shall provide the Member (and the Member’s Representatives) with reasonable access during normal business hours to the books, records other information relied upon by the Buyer in preparing the Closing Statement, and other information reasonably requested by Member with respect to its review. In the event the Member rejects the Closing Statement as prepared by the Buyer, such rejection notice must contain the reasons for such rejection in reasonable detail and must set forth the amount of the requested adjustment. In the event no rejection notice is received by the Buyer during such thirty (30)-day period (which period may be tolled due to and to the extent of any delays by the Buyer), the Closing Statement and any required adjustments resulting therefrom shall be deemed accepted by the Member and final and binding on the Parties hereto. In the event that the Member shall timely reject the Closing Statement, the Buyer and the Member shall promptly (and in any event within thirty (30) days following the date upon which the Buyer received notice from the Member rejecting the Closing Statement), attempt to make a joint determination of the Closing Adjustment and such determination and any required adjustments resulting therefrom shall be final and binding on the Parties hereto.

(d) In the event the Member and the Buyer are unable to agree upon the Closing Adjustment within one hundred fifty (150) days from the Closing Date (as tolled, if applicable), then within one hundred sixty (160) days from the Closing Date (as tolled, if applicable), the Buyer and the Member shall submit such dispute for resolution to the Accounting Firm specifying in reasonable detail all disputed items and the basis therefor. Each Party agrees to execute, if requested by the Accounting Firm, a reasonable engagement letter with respect to the determination to be made by the Accounting Firm. The Buyer and the Member shall request that the Accounting Firm render its determination of the Closing Adjustment within forty-five (45) days of the date it is engaged, and such determination and any required adjustments resulting therefrom shall be final and binding on all the Parties hereto. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be allocated between and paid by the Buyer and/or the Member, respectively, 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 Accounting Firm. The Accounting Firm shall determine only those issues specified in the dispute notices delivered by the Parties, and the Accounting Firm’s determination shall be based upon and consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and with the undisputed portions of the Closing Statement. The determination by the Accounting Firm shall be based solely on presentations with respect to such disputed items by Purchaser and Seller Parties to the Accounting Firm and not on the Accounting Firm’s independent review. The Buyer and the Member will provide copies to one another of all written submissions to the Accounting Firm and shall be permitted to attend (and shall receive reasonable advance written notice of) any meeting with or presentations to the Accounting Firm. The Buyer and the Member shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to make their respective presentations as promptly as practicable following submission to the Accounting Firm of the disputed items (but in no event later than twenty (20) days after engagement of the Accounting Firm), and each such Party shall be entitled, as part of its presentation, to respond to the presentation of the other Party and any questions and requests of the Accounting Firm. In deciding any matter, the Accounting Firm (i) shall be bound by the provisions of this Section 1.2(d) and (ii) may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either the Buyer or the Seller Parties or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by the Buyer or the Seller Parties. The Accounting Firm’s determination shall be made within 45 days after its engagement, or as soon thereafter as possible, shall be set forth in a written statement delivered to the Seller Parties and the Buyer and shall be final, conclusive, non-appealable and binding for all purposes hereunder, absent manifest error. The determination of the Accounting Firm shall not be deemed an award subject to review under the Federal Arbitration Act or any other similar statute.

(e) If the Closing Adjustment as finally determined in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1.4 is in the Buyer’s favor, the amount thereof shall be paid as an adjustment to the Purchase Price by the Member to the Buyer by wire transfer in immediately available funds within seven (7) days after such determination. If the Closing Adjustment as finally determined in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1.4 is in the Member’s favor, the amount thereof shall be paid as an adjustment to the Purchase Price by the Buyer to the Member by wire transfer in immediately available funds within seven (7) days after such determination. If the Member does not so pay to the Buyer by the due date any amounts due under this Section 1.4, such amounts will accrue interest at a rate of nine percent (9%) per annum as of such due date shall be paid in full without regard to the limitations set forth in Section 9.4 and Section 9.5 hereof. If the Buyer does not pay any amount owed to the Member under this Section 1.4 by the due date, then such amount will begin to accrue interest at a rate of nine percent (9%) per annum as of such due date.

1.5 Withholding of Tax. The Buyer and its Affiliates shall be entitled (but not obligated) to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as the Buyer (or any Affiliate thereof) in consultation with the Member shall determine in good faith that the Buyer or any of its Affiliates are required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any provision of applicable federal, state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by the Buyer or any of its Affiliates, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the payee with respect to which such amount was withheld, and the Buyer or its Affiliates shall promptly pay such amounts to the appropriate Tax authority.

1.6 Tax Treatment of Certain Payments. The Parties acknowledge and agree that, as between the Buyer and the Member (or such other Incentive Payment Payor other than Company), the Member (or such other Incentive Payment Payor other than Company) will receive the income Tax deductions attributable to voluntary payment by the applicable Incentive Payment Payor of all such Incentive Payment Rights, and that neither the Company nor the Buyer (or its Affiliates) shall report or take a deduction or other benefit for Tax purposes in connection with the Incentive Payments.

(d) Each Benefit Plan intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code, (i) is so qualified or (ii) has received and is entitled to rely upon a favorable determination or opinion letter from the IRS regarding its qualification thereunder and, in each case, to the Knowledge of any Seller Party, nothing has occurred that could reasonably be expected to adversely affect such determination or opinion or cause such Benefit Plan to lose its tax-exempt status. No such Benefit Plan currently holds or within the past five years has held securities of the Company, or any ERISA Affiliate. All amendments required to maintain each such Benefit Plan’s compliance with applicable Law, have been timely adopted and implemented, as applicable. No such Benefit Plan has ever been merged with or accepted Code Section 414(l) transfers from another employee pension benefit plan (within the meaning of Section 3(2) of ERISA).

(e) With respect to each applicable Benefit Plan: (i) to the Knowledge of any Seller Party, no non-exempt “prohibited transaction,” within the meaning of Section 4975 of the Code or Section 406 of ERISA, has occurred; (ii) there are no actions, suits or claims pending, or, to the Knowledge of any Seller Party, threatened or anticipated (other than routine claims for benefits) against any such Benefit Plan or fiduciary thereto or against the assets of any such Benefit Plan; (iii) there are no audits, inquiries or proceedings pending or, to the Knowledge of any Seller Party, threatened by any Governmental Authority with respect to any such Benefit Plan; (iv) no matters are currently pending with respect to any such Benefit Plan under the Employee Plans Compliance Resolution System maintained by the IRS or any similar program maintained by any other Governmental Authority; and (v) there has been no breach of fiduciary duty (including violations under Part 4 of Title I of ERISA) which has resulted or could reasonably be expected to result in a material liability to the Company, its ERISA Affiliates or any of their respective employees.

(f) Neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has ever sponsored, maintained, administered, contributed to, had any obligation to contribute to, or incurred any other liability under or with respect to any Benefit Plan which provides health, life or other coverage for former managers, officers or employees (or any spouse or former spouse or other dependent thereof), other than benefits required by Section 4980B of the Code, Part 6 of Title I of ERISA, or similar provisions of state law.

(g) Benefits under each Benefit Plan that is an “employee welfare benefit plan” (within the meaning of Section 3(1) of ERISA), with the exception of any flexible spending arrangements subject to Sections 125 and 105 of the Code, are provided exclusively through insurance contracts or policies issued by an insurance company, health maintenance organization, or similar organization unrelated to the Company, or any ERISA Affiliate, the premiums for which are paid directly by the Company or any ERISA Affiliate thereof, from its general assets or partly from its general assets and partly from contributions by its employees. No insurance policy or contract relating to any such Benefit Plan requires or permits a retroactive increase in premiums or payments due thereunder.

(h) Each Benefit Plan, to the extent applicable, is in compliance, in all material respects, with the continuation coverage requirements of Section 4980B of the Code, Section 601 through 608 of ERISA, the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended, and the regulations thereunder, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, as amended, and the regulations thereunder (including, but not limited to, 45 CFR Parts 142, 160, 162 and 164), the Women’s Health and Cancer Rights Act of 1998, the Mental Health Parity Act of 1996, the Newborns’ and Mothers’ Health Protection Act of 1996 and the Family Medical Leave Act of 1993, as amended, and the regulations thereunder, as such requirements affect the Company and any ERISA Affiliate thereof and their respective employees. There are no outstanding, uncorrected violations under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended, with respect to any of the Benefit Plans, covered employees or qualified beneficiaries that would be reasonably likely to result in a material Liability to the Company or any ERISA Affiliate thereof, or the Buyer.

(i) No Benefit Plan is, and neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate thereof currently maintains, contributes to or participates in, nor does the Company or any ERISA Affiliate thereof have any obligation to maintain, contribute to or otherwise participate in, or have any liability or other obligation (whether accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise) under, any (i) “multiemployer plan” (within the meaning of Section 3(37) of ERISA), (ii) “multiple employer plan” (within the meaning of Section 413(c) of the Code), (iii) “multiple employer welfare arrangement” (within the meaning of Section 3(40) of ERISA), or (iv) plan that is subject to the provisions of Title IV of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code. No Benefit Plan is maintained through a human resources and benefits outsourcing entity, professional employer organization, or other similar vendor or provider.

(j) All reports, forms and other documents required to be filed with any Governmental Authority or furnished to employees with respect to any Benefit Plan (including, without limitation, summary plan descriptions, Forms 5500 and summary annual reports) have been timely filed or furnished and are accurate in all material respects.

(k) Each Benefit Plan, other than a Parent Plan, can be amended, terminated or otherwise discontinued after the Closing Date in accordance with its terms, with no more than thirty (30) days advance notice without liability to the Company, or any ERISA Affiliate thereof or the Buyer (except for benefits protected under Section 411(d) of the Code or Section 204(g) of ERISA and other than ordinary administration expenses typically incurred in a termination event). The Company’s participation in each Parent Plan may be terminated as of the Closing Date without further liability to the Company, other than liabilities accrued on the Company’s books and records in accordance with GAAP on the Closing Date. None of the Benefit Plans will be subject to any surrender fees, market value adjustment, deferred sales charges, commissions, or other fees or charges upon termination other than the normal and reasonable administrative fees associated with their amendment, transfer or termination.

(l) Except as set forth on Schedule 3.8(l), the execution and delivery by the Company of this Agreement and the other documents contemplated hereby, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, will not conflict with or result in any violation of or default under (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both), or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation, modification or acceleration of any obligation or loss of any benefit under any Benefit Plan, trust or loan that will or may result in any payment (whether of severance pay or otherwise), acceleration, forgiveness of indebtedness, vesting, distribution, increase in benefits or obligation to fund benefits with respect to any employee.

(m) Neither the Company nor any of its ERISA Affiliates has become obligated to make, or will as a result of any event connected directly or indirectly with any transaction contemplated herein become obligated to make, any “excess parachute payment” as defined in Section 280G of the Code (without regard to Sections 280G(b)(4) and 280G(b)(5) thereof) nor any payment that would not be deductible by reason of Section 162(m) of the Code. There is no written or unwritten agreement, plan, arrangement or other contract by which the Company or any of its ERISA Affiliates are bound to compensate any individual for excise Taxes paid pursuant to Section 4999 of the Code.

(n) Except as set forth on Schedule 3.8(n), neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate thereof is, or on or after January 1, 2005 has been, a party to, or otherwise obligated under any Benefit Plan, employment agreement, or other contract, plan, program, agreement, or arrangement that is a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” (within the meaning of Section 409A(d)(1) of the Code and the regulations and other guidance issued thereunder) with respect to the employees of the Company. Each such nonqualified deferred compensation plan complies in form and operation with the rules of Section 409A of the Code or to the extent such plan does not comply in form with the rules of Section 409A of the Code, such plan may be corrected before the Closing Date to comply with Section 409A of the Code without any required income inclusion under Section 409A of the Code.

(o) Neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate thereof sponsors, maintains or contributes to, or is obligated to contribute to, any material employment, severance or similar contract or arrangement (whether or not written) or any material plan, policy, fund, program or arrangement or contract, including multiemployer plan, retirement savings, superannuation, pension, severance, employment, change-in-control, fringe benefit, bonus, incentive, deferred compensation and any other employee benefit plan, agreement, program, policy or other arrangement with respect to the employees of the Company that is maintained outside the jurisdiction of the United States or covers any “nonresident aliens” within the meaning of Section 4(b)(4) of ERISA.

(a) The Parties agree that attached as Schedule 6.3 are the initial press releases that will be issued by the Buyer and the Member/Company following the execution of this Agreement. Thereafter, the Buyer shall determine in consultation with the Seller Parties the form and substance of any additional press release, publicity or other public communication related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. The Buyer shall use reasonable efforts to provide the Company with the opportunity to comment on the initial press release announcing this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. No Party shall make any disclosure of this Agreement or the existence, terms and conditions hereof (whether or not in response to an inquiry about the existence or subject matter of this Agreement), unless previously approved by the Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall prohibit (i) the Parties from making any disclosure which the Party (the “Disclosing Party”) in good faith believes is required by, or advisable according to, applicable Laws, regulations or stock market rules, or (ii) the Member from making a disclosure to commercial customers and commercial employees that only references the transactions described herein in a manner consistent in all material respects with the press releases attached as Schedule 6.3 or any of the other public releases made by Buyer.

(b) The Company and the Member hereby agree that each shall hold, and shall use its best efforts to cause its Representatives to hold, in strict confidence from any Person (other than such Representatives), all Buyer Confidential Information, except to the extent: (i) compelled to disclosure by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of Law, (ii) previously known by the Person receiving such Buyer Confidential Information, (iii) in the public domain through no fault of the receiving Person, in each case, subject to Section 10.2, or (iv) use is for any Proceedings arising from the non-consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(c) The Buyer hereby agrees that it shall hold, and shall use its best efforts to cause its Representatives to hold, in strict confidence from any Person (other than such Representatives), all Company Confidential Information, except to the extent: (i) compelled to disclosure by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of Law, (ii) previously known by the Person receiving such Company Confidential Information, (iii) in the public domain through no fault of the receiving Person, or (iv) use is for any Proceedings arising from the non-consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or in connection with enforcing any rights hereunder.

6.4 Notification of Certain Matters. The Seller Parties shall give prompt notice to the Buyer of (i) any event the occurrence or non-occurrence of which causes or is reasonably likely to cause any representation or warranty of any of the Seller Parties contained herein to be untrue or inaccurate in any material respect at or prior to the Closing and (ii) any failure of any Seller Party to comply with or satisfy any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by any Seller Party hereunder. During the period after the Signing Date but prior to the Closing, Seller Parties will from time to time to supplement, modify or update their disclosure schedules if as a result of any matter, change, fact, circumstance, occurrence, development or event occurring or arising during the period after the execution of this Agreement any representation or warranty made herein would no longer be correct without the disclosure of such exception (such schedule, as so supplemented, modified or updated and accompanied by a summary specifying, in reasonable detail, the changes made to be referred to collectively, an “Updated Seller Party Disclosure Schedule”). Except as set forth in the next sentence, any such supplements, modifications and updates set forth in the Updated Seller Party Disclosure Schedule (i) shall not adversely affect the right of Buyer under this Agreement to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and in particular shall not effect the closing conditions that are to be satisfied under Section 7.1, (ii) shall not be deemed to cure any breach of any representation or warranty of Seller Parties made as of the Signing Date or as of the Closing, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are nevertheless consummated and (iii) shall not otherwise affect or limit any of Buyer’s indemnity or other rights hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to contrary set forth herein, if any representation or warranty made by the Company or Member herein would no longer be correct due to any matter, change, fact, circumstance, occurrence, development or event occurring or arising during the period after the Signing Date and prior to the Closing, and the Member believes that such matter constitutes a Material Adverse Effect and so notifies the Buyer in writing, and the Buyer elects not to terminate this Agreement, then the Buyer Indemnified Parties will not have any right to indemnification under Section 9 solely with respect to the items that constitute such Material Adverse Effect.

6.5 Tax Matters.

(a) Post-Closing Tax Returns.

(i) The Member shall properly and accurately prepare (or cause to be prepared) and the Company and the Buyer shall cooperate with the Member in the preparation and timely filing of, all Tax Returns required to be filed by or on behalf of the Company after the Closing Date for taxable periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date (each a “Seller Prepared Return”). The cost of preparation of Seller Prepared Returns shall be paid by the Company at the direction of the Member, but not in excess of the amount accrued as a liability for such costs in the computation of Closing Date Net Working Capital, with any excess cost to be paid by the Member. Each Seller Prepared Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the prior practice of the Company, unless otherwise required by applicable Tax Law. Each Seller Prepared Return shall be provided to the Buyer at least fifteen (15) days before the due date for filing such return (or, if required to be filed within thirty (30) days after the Closing or within thirty (30) days after the end of the taxable period to which such Tax Return relates, as soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing or the end of such taxable period, as the case may be) and the Buyer shall have the right to review and consent to such Tax Return. The Member shall make such revisions to such Tax Returns as are reasonably requested by the Buyer in order to secure its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. For purposes of the foregoing, consent to a Tax Return reporting position shall be considered reasonably withheld by the Buyer unless (v) the appropriate officer of the Company can sign such the Tax Return if it includes such reporting position; (w) there is substantial authority for such position within the meaning of Section 6662 of the Code, (x) no reserve for Tax liability would be required to be established pursuant to GAAP in the financial statements relating to the Member or the Buyer or the Company as a result of potential Tax liability that is not shown as due on such Tax Return, (y) such reporting position will not be binding on the Buyer or the Company or any Buyer Affiliate in the preparation of Tax Returns in any taxable period ending after the Closing Date and (z) adequate security (determined within the reasonable discretion of the Buyer) is available or provided to the Buyer to secure the indemnification obligations of the Member under Section 9.1 for Losses which could result from the failure to sustain such Tax Return reporting position.

(ii) The Buyer shall prepare (or cause to be prepared) and file (or cause to be filed) each Tax Return required to be filed by the Company after the Closing Date for a taxable period beginning before the Closing Date (each a “Buyer Prepared Return”); provided that Seller Prepared Returns shall be prepared by the Member in accordance with Section 6.5(a)(i) and filed by the Buyer pursuant to this Section 6.5(a)(ii). Each Buyer Prepared Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the prior practice of the Company, unless otherwise required by applicable Tax Law. Each Buyer Prepared Return shall be provided to the Member at least fifteen (15) days before the due date for filing such return (or, if required to be filed within thirty (30) days after the Closing or within thirty (30) days after the end of the taxable period to which such Tax Return relates, as soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing) and the Member shall have the right to review and comment on such Tax Return. The Buyer shall make such revisions to such Tax Returns as are reasonably requested by the Member and consented to by the Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. For purposes of the foregoing, consent to a Tax Return reporting position shall be considered reasonably withheld by the Buyer unless (w) there is substantial authority for such position within the meaning of Section 6662 of the Code, (x) no reserve for Tax liability would be required to be established pursuant to GAAP in the financial statements relating to the Buyer or the Company as a result of potential Tax liability that is not shown as due on such Tax Return, (y) such reporting position will not be binding on the Buyer or the Company in the preparation of Tax Returns in any taxable period ending after the Closing Date and (z) adequate security (determined within the sole reasonable discretion of the Buyer) is available or provided to the Buyer to secure the indemnification obligations of the Member under Section 9.1 for Losses which could result from the failure to sustain such Tax Return reporting position.

(iii) Not less than two (2) Business Days before the required payment date of the Taxes shown on each Seller Prepared Return and Buyer Prepared Return, the Member shall pay to the Company in immediately available funds to an account designated by the Buyer an amount equal to the excess of the amount of such Taxes shown as due by the Company on each such Tax Return (or if the Tax Return is not completed before the required payment date of any Taxes to be shown thereon, such estimated amount as is mutually determined by the Buyer and the Member to be required to be paid) over the amount of such Taxes included as a liability in computing the Closing Adjustment (or the amount in respect of such Tax that is shown as a liability in the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet, in case the Closing Adjustment has not been finally determined).

(b) For purposes of this Agreement, Company Taxes incurred with respect to a taxable period that includes but does not end on the Closing Date, shall be allocated to the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date (i) except as provided in (ii) and (iii) below, to the extent feasible, on a specific identification basis, according to the date of the event or transaction giving rise to the Tax, and (ii) except as provided in (iii) below, with respect to periodically assessed ad valorem Taxes and Taxes not otherwise feasibly allocable to specific transactions or events, in proportion to the number of days in such period occurring through the Closing Date compared to the total number of days in such period, and (iii) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to income or receipts, in an amount equal to the Tax which would be payable if the relevant taxable period ended on the Closing Date. For the elimination of doubt, Taxes incurred by reason of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be allocated to the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date. Any credits relating to a taxable period that begins before and ends after the Closing Date shall be taken into account as though the relevant taxable period ended on the Closing Date. All determinations necessary to give effect to the foregoing allocations shall be made in a manner consistent with prior practices of the Company. The Buyer covenants that it will not and will not cause or permit the Company or any Affiliate of the Buyer to amend any Tax Return of the Company on the Closing Date, in each case without the consent of the Member, not to be unreasonably withheld.

(c) All Transfer Taxes incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid one-half by the Buyer and one-half by the Member when due. Notwithstanding Section 6.5(a)(ii), the Member shall pay the cost and expense of and shall be responsible to file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such Transfer Taxes. If required by applicable Law, the Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation.

(d) The Member, the Company and the Buyer shall cooperate as and to the extent reasonably requested by any other Party hereto in connection the preparation and filing of Tax Returns as provided herein and any Proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return or Proceeding with respect to Taxes and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Member, the Buyer and the Company shall (i) retain all books and records with respect to Company Taxes (including Tax Returns) relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until ninety (90) days after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (including waivers and extensions) for assessment of Taxes, and (ii) give the other Parties reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if another Party so requests, allow the other Party to take possession of or copy such books and records.

(e) Other than as set forth on Schedule 6.5(e), all obligations of the Company under all Tax sharing agreements or similar agreements shall have been terminated on or before the Closing Date and, after the Closing Date, the Company shall not be bound thereby or have any Liability thereunder.

(f) Any Party who receives any notice of a pending or threatened Proceeding, assessment or adjustment against or with respect to the Company with respect to Taxes that may give rise to Liability of another Party hereto, shall promptly notify such other Party within ten (10) Business Days of the receipt of such notice. The Parties each agree to consult with and to keep the other Parties hereto informed on a regular basis regarding the status of any Tax Proceeding to the extent that such Proceeding could affect a Liability of such other Parties (including indemnity obligations hereunder). The Member shall have the right (i) to control the conduct of all stages of all Tax Proceedings, whether pending or threatened, against the Company that may give rise to an indemnification obligation on the part of the Member under Section 9.1(e) in respect of liabilities for Taxes for taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date and (ii) to employ counsel of the Member’s choosing but reasonably satisfactory to the Buyer, at the Member’s expense, in connection therewith. At the request of the Member, the Buyer shall cause the Company to accept any proposed adjustment or enter into any settlement or agreement in compromise regarding any Taxes for which the Member acknowledges an indemnification obligation under Section 9.1 and which settlement will not result in any adverse Tax effect to the Buyer or its Affiliates (other than an adverse Tax effect to the Buyer for which the Member acknowledges indemnity liability under Section 9.1), provided that the Member provides satisfactory evidence to Buyer (as determined in Buyer’s reasonable discretion) that the Member has sufficient funds to pay such settlement in full. In all other cases, no Tax Proceeding shall be settled except with the consent of the Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Buyer shall cause the Company to pay any Tax liability for which it is indemnified under this Agreement, and all other indemnifiable costs and expenses associated with such Tax Proceeding, promptly following Buyer’s receipt of disbursements from the Escrowed Funds or payment from the Member of the indemnity amount to which it or the Company is entitled in respect thereof. Except as provided above (including any Tax Proceeding that Member is entitled hereunder to conduct but has failed to give notice to Buyer of its intention to do so or thereafter fails to diligently conduct such Tax Proceeding), the Buyer shall have the right to control the conduct of all Tax Proceedings with respect to the Company and to accept any proposed adjustment or enter into any settlement or agreement in compromise regarding any Taxes for which the Member may have an indemnification obligation under Section 9.1.

(g) The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Interest Purchase shall be treated as the sale and purchase of assets of the Company for federal Tax purposes. The Parties agree that the Purchase Price, the liabilities of the Company and any other relevant items shall be allocated among the assets of the Company and the covenant not to compete provided for in Section 10.1 below in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury regulations thereunder. Within 60 days after the Closing Date, the Buyer shall prepare and deliver to the Member an allocation schedule allocating the Purchase Price, the liabilities of the Company and any other relevant items among the assets and the covenant not to compete provided for in Section 10.1 below (the “Allocation Schedule”). The Allocation Schedule will be based upon a determination by the Buyer of the fair market value of the assets of the Company and the covenant not to compete provided for in Section 10.1 below (provided that the Parties agree that the allocation to the covenant not to compete will not be materially different than the amount set forth on the preliminary allocation attached hereto as Schedule 6.5(g)). Upon receipt of the Allocation Schedule, the Member shall, for a period of 30 days, have the right to review and comment on such Allocation Schedule and the Buyer shall make such revisions to such Allocation Schedule as are reasonably requested by the Member and consented to by the Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. In the event of any disagreement between the Buyer and the Member regarding the Allocation Schedule, such disagreement will be resolved by the Accounting Firm in a manner consistent with Section 1.4, including, if deemed necessary by the Accounting Firm, the selection of the independent appraiser to prepare and provide to the Buyer and the Member a copy of a valuation of the fair market value of the assets of the Company and the covenant not to compete provided for in Section 10.1 below. The final Allocation Schedule shall be final and binding on the Parties. The Allocation Schedule as so determined shall be binding on the Parties for Tax purposes, the Parties shall file all Tax Returns in a manner consistent with such Allocation Schedule, and no Party shall take any position that is inconsistent with the Allocation Schedule in any audit, examination or other proceeding relating to Taxes unless otherwise dictated by Law.

(c) Foreign Interests. The Buyer shall (i) cooperate with the Seller Parties in providing accurate information with respect to foreign ownership and control as described in CFIUS regulations, the NISPOM, and the ITAR for purposes of Sellers Parties’ due diligence and in preparation of all necessary filings and notifications as described in this section; and (ii) assist Seller Parties in describing such foreign ownership or control in all relevant filings to Governmental Authorities, as described in this section. The Buyer acknowledges that, so long as the Seller Parties comply with their obligations under Sections 6.7(a) and (b), to the extent that any Governmental Authority does not grant an approval or consent for the contemplated transaction due to Buyer’s foreign ownership or control, the lack of such approval or consent will not be deemed to be a breach of Seller Parties’ obligations under this Agreement.

6.8 Company Employees. Each of the Seller Parties agrees that within a reasonable time prior to Closing it shall allow the Buyer to make a recruiting presentation to the Company Employees. Each of the Seller Parties will encourage each of the Company Employees to make available their employment services to the Company after the Closing and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to have such employees execute and deliver a non-disclosure agreement with Buyer on Buyer’s standard form. During the period between the Signing Date and the Closing Date, the Buyer agrees to offer or have the Company continue the Company Employees compensation and incentive plans (other than equity based incentive plans) and Benefit Plans substantially similar to that provided by the Company prior to Closing.

(b) The Seller Parties shall obtain from each person holding Incentive Payment Rights a complete and unconditional release of the Company and Buyer for any and all claims for payment due and liability with respect to the Incentive Payment Rights in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D-1, as amended and restated (with respect to participants in The Signature Upside Participatory Unit Plan) and Exhibit D-2, as amended and restated (with respect to John Stolberg) or in another form reasonably acceptable to the Buyer (the “Incentive Payment Releases”), provided that such release shall not release the obligation of the applicable Incentive Payment Payor to make the Incentive Payments set forth on Schedule 1.2(b). The solicitation of each Incentive Payment Release shall be accompanied by an information statement disclosing the payments to be made or method of determining the payments to be made to each holder of Incentive Payment Rights and such additional information as may be necessary and appropriate to obtain an informed release.

(c) The Seller Parties shall amend the terms of the offer letter to Pat Palmer so that he is not entitled to any bonus in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby pursuant to the terms of the Amendment to Offer Letter in substantially the form attached as Exhibit D-3 to this Agreement.

The Buyer shall have no liability with respect to such Incentive Payment Amounts. The Seller Parties shall also amend the Incentive Payment Agreements to eliminate any requirement that an employee of the Company remain employed following the Closing Date in order to receive amounts due under the Incentive Payment Agreements. For avoidance of doubt, an employee of the Company on the Closing Date holding an Incentive Payment Agreement shall be eligible to receive the payments due by reason of the Closing or by reason of any contingent deferred payment amounts attributable to releases from the Escrow Fund, or otherwise, without regard to such employee’s termination of employment or separation from service following the Closing Date.

6.10 Benefit Plans.

(a) (i) Effective immediately prior to the Closing, the Company and the Member will take all action, including plan amendments and participant notices, to terminate the Company’s participation in the Signature Consultants LLC 401(k) Plan (the “Parent 401(k) Plan”) and, at the request of the Buyer, the Company will provide the Buyer with evidence that the Company’s participation in such plans have been terminated effective immediately prior to the Closing pursuant to resolutions duly adopted by the board of managers and the Member of the Company and Member or other duly-designated authority. As of the Closing Date, all Company Employees shall cease to be active participants under the Parent Plan and shall be fully vested in their accrued benefits. Seller shall amend the Parent 401(k) Plan if necessary to permit Company Employees with outstanding participant loans from the Parent 401(k) Plan to continue to make payments due on such loans after the Closing Date (for a period not to exceed three months), without regard to whether such payment is made by payroll deduction. Company Employees who are participants in Parent 401(k) Plan shall as of the Closing Date be entitled to a distribution of their vested benefits from such plan.

For avoidance of doubt the Transition Services Agreement shall, to the extent requested by Buyer, provide for delayed termination date of the Company’s participation in each Parent Welfare Benefit Plan and the date of such termination of participation is not required to be the same for all such Parent Welfare Benefit Plans. The delayed termination date may occur on the later of December 31, 2010 or the last day of the month following the Closing Date; provided that, participation in the Parent plan which is a Section 125 plan for all purposes including dependent care and/or health care flexible spending accounts may continue until the end of such plan’s plan year during which the Closing occurs (the “Current Plan Year”). In the event termination of participation in the Section 125 plan occurs before the end of the current Plan Year the Member shall transfer to Buyer an amount equal to the unreimbursed account balances of the Company’s employees. During the period of the Company’s continued participation in Member’s Section 125 plan, the Company shall remit to Member (or the plan administrator) the amount of participant contributions. Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 6.9, if any Company Employee is on disability leave as of the termination date of the Company’s participation in the Parent Welfare Benefit Plan which is a long term disability plan and such disability results in eligibility for long term disability benefits under the terms of such long term disability plan as in effect on the date of such disability, then such Company Employee shall continue to be covered by the Parent Welfare Benefit Plan long term disability insurance plan.

Each Parent Welfare Benefit Plan which is subject to the continuation coverage provisions of Section 4980B of the Code and Section 601 et. seq. of ERISA (“COBRA Continuation Coverage”) shall retain liability for providing COBRA continuation coverage if the “qualifying event” that gives rise to a “qualified beneficiary’s” right to continued coverage occurs on or before the date Company’s participation in Seller’s group health plan terminates (to the extent permitted under the policies funding the applicable Seller group health plan and based on Member’s commercially reasonable good faith efforts to obtain such permission). Until such date as the Company’s participation in Seller’s group health plans terminates (to the extent permitted under the policies funding the applicable Seller group health plan and based on Member’s commercially reasonable good faith efforts to obtain such permission, the Seller’s group health plans shall be responsible for compliance with COBRA Continuation Coverage requirements for the Company Employees and their qualifying beneficiaries who have a “qualifying event”.

(c) Following the Closing Date, the Company shall continue to honor accrued vacation and sick leave through the Closing Date in accordance with Company’s existing policies provided that the Company or Buyer shall not be required to continue the pre-Closing vacation and sick leave policies of the Company.

(d) This Section 6.10 shall survive consummation of this Agreement, is intended to benefit Seller, its subsidiaries, and affiliates, and Company, Buyer and their subsidiaries, affiliates, successors and assigns and shall be binding on Seller and Company and their successors and assigns. No one shall be considered a third party beneficiary of this Section 6.9 (or any related provisions of this Agreement). Accordingly, no one other than the parties to this Agreement shall have the right to enforce the provisions of this Section 6.9 (or any related provisions of this Agreement) or to maintain any other legal or equitable action of any kind with respect to such provisions.

(e) In addition, at the request of the Buyer, the Company will terminate any one or more Benefit Plan, other than a Parent Plan, effective as of the date specified by the Buyer and, at the request of the Buyer, the Company will provide the Buyer with evidence that such plans have been so terminated pursuant to resolutions duly adopted by the board of managers of the Company or other duly-designated authority. The Company also shall take such other actions in furtherance of terminating participation of the Company in a Parent Plan and terminating such Benefit Plans, other than a Parent Plan as Buyer may reasonably require.

6.11 Payment of Obligations. Prior to the Closing, the Member and each of the officers, managers, employees and Affiliates of the Company shall repay in full, in accordance with their terms, all debts and other obligations, if any, owed to the Company.

No Seller Party shall (and each Seller Party shall cause their respective Representatives not to) during the period commencing on the Signing Date and ending on the earlier of the Closing or the termination of this Agreement, solicit or encourage the initiation or submission of interest, offers, inquiries or proposals (or consider or entertain any of the foregoing) from any Person (including, without limitation, by way of providing any non-public information concerning the Company, its business or assets to any Person or otherwise), initiate or participate in any negotiations or discussions, or enter into, accept or authorize any agreement or agreement in principle, or announce any intention to do any of the foregoing, with respect to any expression of interest, offer, proposal to acquire, purchase, license, or lease (other than, in the case of licenses or leases, non-exclusive licenses or leases to end users on customary terms in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices (“Non-Exclusive Licenses”)) (i) all or a substantial portion of the Company’s business or assets (including, without limitation the Company Intellectual Property), or (ii) the Company’s ownership interests or other securities, in each case whether by purchase of the Membership Interest, merger, consolidation, combination, reorganization, recapitalization, purchase of assets, tender offer, lease, license (other than Non-Exclusive Licenses) or otherwise (any of the foregoing, a “Competing Transaction”). The Company shall, and the Company shall cause its Representatives to, immediately discontinue any ongoing discussions or negotiations (other than any ongoing discussions with Buyer) relating to a possible Competing Transaction, and shall promptly provide the Buyer with an oral and a written notice of any expression of interest, proposal or offer relating to a possible Competing Transaction that is received by the Company or by any of the Company’s Representatives from any person, which notice shall contain the nature of the proposal proposed and the material terms of the proposal and include copies of any such notice, inquiry or proposal, unless prohibited by a Contract in place prior to Closing.

9.1 General Indemnification. Subject to this ARTICLE IX, the Member covenants and agrees to indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless the Buyer Indemnified Parties from, against and in respect of all Damages suffered, sustained, incurred or paid by any Buyer Indemnified Party, in each case in connection with, resulting from or arising directly or indirectly out of (whether or not involving a third party claim): (a) the breach of any representation or warranty made by any Seller Party set forth in this Agreement or any certificate delivered or provided by any Seller Party in connection with or related to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (b) the breach of any covenant or agreement on the part of any Seller Party set forth in this Agreement or any certificate delivered or provided by any Seller Party pursuant to this Agreement or in the transactions contemplated hereby; (c) any Indebtedness for Borrowed Money of the Company not otherwise paid on or prior to the Closing, (d) any Non-Ordinary Course Liabilities, other than as shown on the Closing Statement and deducted in the calculation of Closing Net Working Capital or paid from the Purchase Price; (e) the Parent Benefit Plans and any and all benefits accrued under the Benefit Plans as of the Closing Date and any and all other Liabilities arising out of, or in connection with, the form, operation or termination of such Benefit Plans or termination of the Company’s participation in the Benefit Plans on or prior to the Closing Date, (f) any liability with respect to the Incentive Payment Rights, including without limitation any payment of Taxes associated therewith (including any applicable tax withholding, payroll tax payments and the employer portions of any Taxes associated with the Incentive Payment Rights) in each case other than such Taxes to the extent included in the calculation of Closing Working Capital, (g) other than as shown on the Closing Statement as finally determined and deducted in the calculation of Closing Net Working Capital (and resulting an adjustment to the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 1.4), any and all Liabilities for Taxes or the nonpayment thereof: (i) of the Company or the Member for all taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date and for that portion through the end of the Closing Date for any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date, (ii) in connection with or arising out of the Company’s activities or business on or before the Closing Date (determined, with respect to taxable periods that begin before and end after the Closing Date, in accordance with the allocation provisions of Section 6.5(b)), (iii) arising in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (iv) owing by any Person (other than the Company) for which the Company may be liable where the liability of the Company for such Taxes is attributable to an event or transaction or affiliation occurring on or before the Closing Date, including, without limitation, (A) in respect of Taxes payable by the Member, (B) under Treasury Regulation Sections 1.1502-6 (or any predecessor or successor thereof or any analogous or similar provision of Law ), (C) as a transferee or successor or (D) by Contract, or (v) resulting from a breach by any Seller Party of any provision of Section 6.5, (h) any matter described on Appendix B and (i) enforcing the indemnification rights of Buyer Indemnified Parties hereunder.

9.2 Indemnification Procedures.

(a) In the event that, subsequent to the Closing, any Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion of any claim or demand or the commencement of any Proceeding against such Indemnified Party by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement (a “Third-Party Claim”), and for which such Indemnified Party may be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE IX, the Indemnified Party shall promptly give written notice thereof, together with a statement of any available information regarding such Third Party Claim, to the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, any failure on the part of the Indemnified Party to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not limit any of the obligations of the Indemnifying Party, or any of the rights of any Indemnified Party, under this ARTICLE IX (except to the extent such failure adversely prejudices the defense of such claim, demand or Proceeding). The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its election and upon written notice to the Indemnified Party (the “Defense Notice”) within fifteen (15) days after receiving notice of the Third Party Claim from the Indemnifying Party, to conduct the defense against such claim in its own name, the Company’s name or, if necessary, in the name of the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party may not settle or compromise any such claim, demand or Proceeding without the consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The Indemnifying Party shall consult with and keep the Indemnified Party reasonably informed regarding the status of such Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party fails to timely give the Defense Notice, it will be deemed to have elected not to conduct the defense of the subject claim, and in such event the Indemnified Party shall have the right, at the Indemnifying Party’s cost and expense, to conduct the defense in good faith with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall consult with and keep the Indemnifying Party reasonably informed regarding the status of such Third-Party Claim and may not settle or compromise any such claim, demand or Proceeding without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(b) In the event that either Buyer or Member, as an Indemnified Party desires to seek indemnification under this ARTICLE IX other than with respect to a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall promptly give written notice to the Indemnifying Party, which written notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts constituting the basis for such claim and the amount, to the extent known, of the claim; provided, however, any failure on the part of the Indemnified Party to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not limit any of the obligations of the Indemnifying Party, or any of the rights of any Indemnified Party, under this ARTICLE IX (except to the extent such failure materially adversely prejudices the Indemnifying Party). Upon receipt of the written notice from the Indemnified Party of a claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have fifteen (15) Business Days in which to investigate the claim. For the purposes of such investigation, the Indemnified Party agrees to make available to the Indemnifying Party and its authorized Representatives the material information relied upon by the Indemnified Party to substantiate the claim. If the Indemnifying Party

disputes the claim for indemnification or any portion thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party in writing (which writing shall set forth in reasonable detail the grounds for such objection) within such fifteen (15) Business Day period, whereupon the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall promptly meet and attempt in good faith to resolve their differences with respect to such claim or any portion of such claim for indemnification. If the dispute has not been resolved within thirty (30) days after the Indemnifying Party’s notice of such dispute, either the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party may proceed with pursuing the remedies provided herein to resolve such dispute. If the Indemnifying Party does not dispute such claim or any portion of such claim for indemnification and (i) the Indemnified Party is a Buyer Indemnified Party, then the Buyer may require the Escrow Agent to promptly pay the Indemnified Party an amount in cash equal to the amount of such claim or if the amount of the Escrowed Funds is not sufficient to pay such claim, then the Member shall promptly pay the Buyer Indemnified Parties an amount in cash equal to the amount of such claim not satisfied out of the Escrowed Funds, or (ii) the Indemnified Party is the Member, then the Buyer shall promptly pay the Indemnified Party an amount in cash equal to the amount of such claim. In the event no written notice disputing or objecting to such claim or any portion of such claim for indemnification is delivered by the Indemnifying Party prior to the expiration of the fifteen (15) Business Days in which the Indemnifying Party may dispute such claim for indemnification, the claim(s) stated by the Indemnified Party shall be conclusively deemed to be approved by the Indemnifying Party, subject to the limitations of this Article IX.

9.3 Escrow. In the event that the Member is obligated to indemnify any Buyer Indemnified Party in accordance with this Agreement, the Buyer shall first make a claim against the Escrowed Funds in accordance with the Escrow Agreement, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.4 and Section 9.5 and in the Escrow Agreement. If the Member has disputed any claim for Damages by any Buyer Indemnified Party in accordance herewith and such dispute has not been resolved, the Buyer shall have the right to offset the amount of such Damages claimed by the Buyer Indemnified Party against the Escrowed Funds, by requesting that the Escrow Agent reserve the amount of such Damages claimed by the Buyer Indemnified Party from any distribution of the Escrowed Funds in accordance with the Escrow Agreement, until such claim has been resolved pursuant to (a) a written settlement agreement entered into by the Buyer and the Member or (b) a final decision, order or award issued in accordance with Section 12.9. Subject to the terms of Section 9.8, no exercise of, nor failure to exercise, the rights set forth in this Section 9.3 shall constitute an election of remedies or limit such Buyer Indemnified Party’s other rights hereunder or otherwise. Subject to the terms of Section 9.8, such remedy shall be in addition to and not in limitation of any injunctive relief or other rights or remedies to which the Buyer or any Buyer Indemnified Party is or may be entitled at law or equity or under this Agreement (including any exhibits hereto). The exercise of rights in good faith hereunder, whether or not ultimately determined to be justified, shall not constitute a breach of any covenant hereunder.

9.4 Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants. All representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and any certificate delivered pursuant to Sections 7.1, 7.2, 8.1 and 8.2 shall survive the Closing for a period of eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date (the “Survival Period”), and shall thereafter expire; provided, however, that (a) the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2 (Authority for Agreement), Section 3.4 (Capitalization), Section 3.8 (Employee Benefit Plans), Section 3.10 (Taxes), Section 3.22 (Brokers), Section 4.1 (Authority for Agreement), Section 4.3 (Ownership) and Section 4.4 (Brokers) and the indemnity obligations under Section 9.1(c), (d), (e), (f), (g) and (h) (except item 13, which shall be subject to the applicable Survival Period to which the new matter reflected in the Updated Seller Party Disclosure Schedule relates) shall survive until ninety (90) days after expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (taking into account waivers and extensions thereof), (b) the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.14 (Government Contracts and Bids) shall survive until the date three (3) years from the Closing Date (except with respect to any subsequent claims based on DCAA or other government audits of pre-Closing periods commenced prior to the date that is three (3) years from the Closing Date, which shall extend such three (3) year period through conclusion of such audit), (c) claims based on criminal matters or actual fraud, which shall survive without limitation, (d) claims based on breach or nonfulfillment of interim covenants under Section 6.2 shall survive for a period of eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date, and all other covenants shall survive in accordance with their terms, and (e) claims based on the indemnity obligations under Section 9.1(i) shall survive as to each claims made or to be made by the Buyer Indemnified Parties for the time period applicable to the indemnification obligation to which the enforcement claim relates. Any representation or warranty with respect to which a claim has been duly made under this ARTICLE IX for breach thereof prior to the end of the Survival Period otherwise applicable to such representation or warranty shall survive until such claim is resolved.

9.5 Limitations on Indemnification.

(a) The Member shall have no liability for Damages for breaches of representations and warranties set forth in ARTICLE III and ARTICLE IV unless and until the aggregate amount of all Damages for all claims asserted by the Buyer Indemnified Parties exceeds Four Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($450,000) (the “Threshold”); provided, however, that if such Threshold is exceeded, the Member shall be liable for all Damages (other than the initial $200,000 of the $450,000 in Damages included in the Threshold determination; provided, further, that the foregoing limitations shall not apply to (i) the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2 (Authority for Agreement), Section 3.4 (Capitalization), Section 3.8 (Employee Benefit Plans), Section 3.10 (Taxes) and Section 3.22 (Brokers) and Section 4.1 (Authority for Agreement), Section 4.3 (Ownership) and Section 4.4 (Brokers) or (ii) claims based on criminal matters or actual fraud or any matters set forth on Appendix B (other than the items set forth on Schedule 3.14(b) which shall be subject to the Threshold, and item 13, which shall be subject to the applicable Threshold to which the new matter reflected in the Updated Seller Party Disclosure Schedule relates), with respect to which, in each case, all Damages in connection therewith shall be recoverable from the first dollar and shall not be counted in determining whether the thresholds in this Section 9.5(a) have been exceeded. For the sole purpose of determining the amount of any Damages with respect to any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant for purposes of indemnification under this ARTICLE IX (and not for determining whether or not any breaches of representations, warranties or covenants have occurred), any qualification or limitation of a representation, warranty or covenant by reference to materiality of matters stated therein or as to matters having or not having “Material Adverse Effect,” “materiality” or words of similar effect, shall be disregarded. Except as provided for in the last sentence of Section 6.4, the indemnification obligations of the Member and the rights and remedies that may be exercised by a Buyer Indemnified Party shall not be limited or otherwise affected by or as a result of any information furnished to, or any investigation made by or knowledge of, any of the Buyer Indemnified Parties or any of their Representatives.

(b) The indemnification obligations of the Member for breaches of representations and warranties set forth in ARTICLE III and ARTICLE IV shall be limited to an aggregate amount not to exceed to Thirteen Million One Hundred Twenty Five Thousand Dollars ($13,125,000) (the “General Indemnity Cap”); provided, that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to (i) the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2 (Authority for Agreement), Section 3.4 (Capitalization), Section 3.10 (Taxes) and Section 3.22 (Brokers) and Section 4.1 (Authority for Agreement), Section 4.3 (Ownership) and Section 4.4 (Brokers) or claims based on matters set forth in Appendix B, which shall be limited to an amount equal to the proceeds paid or payable to the Member as a result of the transactions contemplated under this Agreement, (ii) the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.14 (Government Contracts), which shall be limited to an aggregate amount not to exceed to Fifteen Million Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($15,750,000), (iii) claims based on criminal matters or actual fraud, for which the indemnification obligations hereunder shall be unlimited or (iv) claims based upon breach of covenant and indemnity obligations set forth in Sections 9.1(c), (d), (e), (f), (g) and (h) (other than item 13, which shall be subject to the applicable General Indemnity Cap to which the new matter reflected in the Updated Seller Party Disclosure Schedule relates) shall be limited to an aggregate amount not to exceed, with all other claims (other than claims based on criminal matters or actual fraud), the Purchase Price. With respect to any of the items so excluded from the General Indemnity Cap pursuant to the preceding sentence in each case, no Damages incurred in connection with such items shall be counted in determining whether the General Indemnity Cap in this Section 9.5(b) has been exceeded. For the avoidance of doubt, all claims based on the indemnity obligations under Section 9.1(i) shall be subject to any limitations set forth herein that are applicable to the underlying claims.

9.6 Waiver, Release and Discharge. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement and in the Transaction Documents, the Member, hereby irrevocably waives, releases and discharges the Company, and its respective Affiliates, directors, officers and employees from any and all Liabilities and obligations to the Member of any kind or nature whatsoever, whether in its capacity as the Member hereunder, as a member, officer, director or employee of the Company or otherwise (including, without limitation, in respect of rights of contribution or indemnification), in each case whether absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, known or unknown, and whether arising hereunder or under any other agreement or understanding, at law or equity, or otherwise and the Member shall not seek to recover any amounts in connection therewith or thereunder from the Company; provided that the foregoing release shall not apply to the Member’s (and the Member’s Affiliate’s) rights under this Agreement or any other agreement made in connection herewith. After the Closing, the Member waives, and acknowledges and agrees that the Member shall not have and shall not exercise or assert (or attempt to exercise or assert), any right of contribution, right of indemnity or other similar right or remedy against the Company or the Buyer in connection with any actual or alleged breach of any representation, warranty or obligation of any Seller Party set forth in this Agreement, except for the rights of the Member and its Affiliates to exercise and enforce their rights under the Transition Services Agreement. The Buyer Indemnified Parties shall not make a claim against the Company without including the Member in such Claim, provided that for the avoidance of doubt, the Buyer Indemnified Parties may make a claim against the Member without making a claim against the Company.

9.7 Indemnification by Buyer. The Buyer covenants and agrees to indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless the Member from, against and in respect of all Damages suffered, sustained, incurred or paid by the Member, in each case in connection with, resulting from or arising out of directly or indirectly (whether or not involving a third party claim):

(a) the breach of any representation or warranty made by Buyer set forth in this Agreement;

(b) the breach of the covenants of the Buyer set forth in this Agreement;

(c) a post-Closing breach in or post-Closing Liabilities arising in connection with the contracts (the “LMC Contracts”) identified in that certain Novation Agreement, effective as of September 1, 2009, by and among Lockheed Martin Corporation, the Member and the Company, in each case arising in connection with the performance of the LMC Contracts after the Closing Date except for those breaches or Liabilities based on conditions that pre-existed the Closing Date, including, but not limited to breaches or Liabilities based on improper conduct of Company personnel whose improper conduct, in nature and type, pre-existed the Closing Date; and

(d) enforcing the indemnification rights of the Member hereunder.

Any claims for indemnification pursuant to this Section 9.7 shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 9.2.

9.8 Exclusive Remedy. The remedies provided for in this Article IX of this Agreement shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of the Parties for all disputes arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any Transaction Document (other than as specifically provided in Section 1.4), and no Party will be entitled to pursue, and each hereby expressly waives, any and all rights that may otherwise be available either at Law or in equity against the other Party with respect to this Agreement or any Transaction Document, including any claims for rescission. The provisions of this section were specifically bargained for in the context of the other terms and provisions of this Agreement, including the Purchase Price. The foregoing indemnification provisions in this Section 9 do not (a) waive or affect any claims for actual fraud or relating to criminal investigations or proceedings, or relieve or limit the liability of any Party or any manager, officer, trustee or director of such Party from any liability arising out of or resulting from criminal investigations or proceedings or actual fraud in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or in connection with the delivery of any of the documents referred to herein or (b) waive or affect the equitable remedies of injunctive relief and specific performance to which a Party may be entitled.

9.9 No Double Recovery; Use of Insurance. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Party shall be entitled to reimbursement under any provision of this Agreement for any amount to the extent such Party has previously been reimbursed for such amount under any other provision of this Agreement. Furthermore, in the event any Damages related to a claim by an Indemnified Party are covered by insurance, the Indemnified Party shall not be entitled to recover from the Indemnifying Party (and shall refund amounts received up to the amount of indemnification actually received) with respect to such Damages (but only to the extent the Indemnified Party actually receives an insurance payment with respect to such covered claim and except to the extent any additional amounts become payable to the insurer through adjustments to past, present or future premiums or other similar mechanisms within the three (3) year period following the date of the claim giving rise to such adjustments; provided, however, that in no event shall the Indemnifying Party be liable for such adjustments to past, present or future premiums as a result of this sentence to the extent that such adjustments are greater than or equal to the amount of the insured losses, liabilities or damages). The Indemnified Party will use commercially reasonable efforts to collect any such insurance and will account to the Indemnifying Party therefor but for the avoidance of doubt, the Indemnified Party is not required to pursue or exhaust any insurance remedies prior to bringing an indemnification claim hereunder.

9.10 Government Contract Offsets. If any DCAA audit or similar audit related to any period ending on or before the Closing Date results in any cost adjustment to the Government Contracts in favor of the Government for which Buyer would otherwise be indemnified pursuant to Section 9.1 hereof, such amounts shall be offset by any other cost adjustments to the Government Contracts relating to any period ending on or before the Closing Date in favor of the Company.

9.11 Tax Treatment. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, the Parties agree to treat all indemnification payments pursuant to this Agreement as adjustments to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes.

ARTICLE X
COVENANT NOT TO COMPETE

10.1 Member Prohibited Activities. For the period commencing with Closing and ending on the fifth (5^th) anniversary of the Closing, the Member (including Member’s Affiliates) shall not, for any reason whatsoever, directly or indirectly, for itself, or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other Person:

(a) engage as a member, owner, partner, joint venturer, or in a managerial capacity, whether as a manager, director, officer, employee, independent contractor, consultant or advisor, in any Competing Business; provided, however, that neither the Member nor any of the Member’s Affiliates shall be precluded from the ownership of securities of corporations that are listed on a national securities exchange or traded in the national over-the-counter market in an amount that shall not exceed one percent (1%) of the outstanding shares of any such corporation;

(b) employ, or call upon for the purpose or with the intent of enticing or soliciting away from or out of the employ of the Company, the Buyer or the Buyer’s Affiliates, any person who is on the Closing Date, or was within one (1) year prior to that time, an employee of the Company, the Buyer or the Buyer’s Affiliates.

(c) other than on behalf of the Buyer or its Affiliates, (i) sell products or services that are the same or similar products or services as provided by Company as of the Closing, or call upon for the purpose of soliciting or selling such products or services to, the U.S. Government, including without limitation any Company Customer, (ii) induce or attempt to induce any Company Customer to cease doing business, or reduce the amount of business such Company Customer does, with the Company or (iii) interfere with or diminish the relationship between any Company Customer and the Company; or

(d) publish any statement or make any statement (under any circumstances reasonably likely to become public) maligning the reputation of the Buyer, the Company or any of the Buyer’s Affiliates, provided that nothing herein shall limit such Person from responding truthfully (i) as required in connection with any judicial or similar legal process or (ii) in connection with enforcing rights under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents.

The Parties intend that the covenants contained in this Section 10.1 shall be deemed to be a series of separate covenants, one for each county in each state of the United States and, except for geographic coverage, each such separate covenant shall be identical in terms to the covenant contained in this Section 10.1.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (a) if the Member or any of its Affiliates are acquired by an Acquiror, the obligations and restrictions in this Section 10.1 shall continue to apply with regard to the Member and its Affiliates acquired by the Acquiror but the terms of this Section 10.1 shall not apply to the Acquiror or the Acquiror’s Affiliates other than the Member and its Affiliates that were subject to such obligations and restrictions immediately prior to the date of the Acquisition and (b) nothing shall prevent the Member and its Affiliates from performing services within the U.S. federal agencies set forth on Schedule 2, even if such services are otherwise competitive with Buyer or its Affiliates.

10.2 Confidentiality.

(a) The Member and each of the Member’s Affiliates, (i) shall treat and hold as confidential all information concerning this Agreement and the business and affairs of the Buyer, the Company and the Buyer’s Affiliates that is not already generally available to the public (the “Confidential Information”), (ii) shall not disclose, transfer, transmit or use any of the Confidential Information except in connection with this Agreement or as authorized by the Buyer or the Company and (iii) shall deliver promptly to the Buyer, at the request and option of the Buyer, all tangible embodiments (and all copies) of the Confidential Information which are in its possession or under its control. The Member hereby acknowledges that such Confidential Information constitutes proprietary and trade secret information of the Buyer or the Company, as the case may be. The foregoing limitations will not apply to any use or disclosure of Confidential Information to the extent its use or disclosure is (i) used to secure the full benefits under this Agreement, including, without limitation, with respect to Purchase Price adjustments, (ii) used or disclosed in the course of Tax Returns to the extent required by applicable Tax laws, with respect to audits of, or the closing out of Government Contracts, or (iii) used or disclosed in connection with any pursuit or defense of any indemnification claim made by any Indemnified Party.

(b) In the event that the Member is requested or required (by oral question or request for information or documents in any legal proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigative demand, or similar process) to disclose any Confidential Information, the Member shall notify the Buyer promptly of the request or requirement so that the Buyer may seek an appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 10.2. If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, the Member is, on the advice of counsel, compelled to disclose any Confidential Information to any tribunal or other Governmental Authority or any official or agency thereof, the Member may disclose the Confidential Information thereto; provided that the Member shall use the Member’s reasonable efforts to obtain, at the request and expense of the Buyer, an order or other assurance that confidential treatment shall be accorded to such portion of the Confidential Information required to be disclosed as the Buyer shall designate.

10.3 Buyer Damages; Reasonable Restraint; Independent Covenants.

(a) Because of the difficulty of measuring economic losses to the Buyer and its Affiliates as a result of a breach of the foregoing covenants in this ARTICLE X, and because of the immediate and irreparable damage that could be caused to the Buyer and its Affiliates for which it would have no other adequate remedy, the Member agrees that the foregoing covenant may be enforced by the Buyer in the event of breach or threatened breach by the Member, in addition to, but not in lieu of, any other available remedies (including, without limitation, monetary Damages), by injunctions, restraining orders or other equitable remedies, without necessity of posting an injunction bond.

(b) It is agreed by the Parties that the foregoing covenants in this ARTICLE X impose a reasonable restraint on the Member in light of the activities and business of the Buyer, the Company and the Buyer’s Affiliates on the Signing Date and the current plans of the Company, the Buyer and its Affiliates. The Member agrees that the foregoing covenants in this ARTICLE X do not unreasonably restrict the Member’s ability to earn a livelihood.

(c) Each of the covenants in this ARTICLE X shall be construed as an agreement independent of any other provision in this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action of the Member against the Buyer, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Buyer of any such covenant. It is understood by the Parties that the covenants contained in this ARTICLE X are essential elements of this Agreement and that, but for the agreement of the Member to comply with such covenants, the Buyer would not have agreed to enter into this Agreement. The Member and the Buyer have independently consulted with their respective counsel and have been advised concerning the reasonableness and propriety of such covenants with specific regard to the nature of the business conducted by the Buyer. The Member hereby agrees that all covenants contained in this ARTICLE X are material, reasonable and valid and waives all defenses related to the Buyer’s failure to strictly enforce such covenants. The covenants in this ARTICLE X are severable and separate, and the unenforceability of any specific covenant shall not affect the provisions of any other covenant. Moreover, in the event that any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that the scope, time or territorial restrictions set forth are unreasonable, then it is the intention of the Parties that such restrictions be enforced to the fullest extent which the court deems reasonable, and the Agreement shall thereby be reformed. The covenants contained in this ARTICLE X shall have no effect if the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are not consummated.

10.4 Buyer Prohibited Activities. For the period commencing with Closing and ending on the fifth (5^th) anniversary of the Closing, the Buyer and any entities controlled by Buyer shall not, for any reason whatsoever, directly or indirectly, for itself, or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other Person:

(a) employ, or call upon for the purpose or with the intent of enticing or soliciting away from or out of the employ of the Member or the Member’s Affiliates (excluding the Company), any person who is on the Closing Date, or was within one (1) year prior to that time, an employee of the Member; provided that nothing shall restrict the Buyer or one of its Affiliates from employing or soliciting a person if such person ceased to be an employee of the Member or one of its Affiliates at least one year prior to the time such person is either employed or solicited for employment by the Buyer or one of the Buyer’s Affiliates.

(b) (i) sell products or services to, that are the same or similar products or services as provided by the Member and its Affiliates (other than the Company) as of the Closing, or call upon for the purpose of soliciting or selling such products or services to, any non-governmental customer of the Member and its Affiliates (other than the Company) as of the Closing or that has been such a customer within the twelve months prior to Closing, (ii) induce or attempt to induce any such customer of the Member and its Affiliates (other than the Company) to cease doing business, or reduce the amount of business such customer of the Member or its Affiliates (other than the Company) does, with the Member or such Affiliate (other than the Company) or (iii) interfere with the relationship between any such customer of the Member or its Affiliates (other than the Company) and the Member or such Affiliate; or

(c) publish any false statement or make any false statement (under any circumstances reasonably likely to become public) maligning the reputation of the Member or any of the Member’s Affiliates, provided that nothing herein shall limit such Person from responding truthfully (i) as required in connection with any judicial or similar legal process or (ii) in connection with enforcing rights under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents.

The Parties intend that the covenants contained in this Section 10.4 shall be deemed to be a series of separate covenants, one for each county in each state of the United States and, except for geographic coverage, each such separate covenant shall be identical in terms to the covenant contained in this Section 10.4. For avoidance of doubt, the foregoing restrictions shall not apply to or otherwise limit any activities of any individual or entity that owns securities (including a controlling interest) of the Buyer. Additionally, the covenants set forth in Section 10.4(b) shall terminate upon the sale of a majority of the voting equity securities of the Buyer to Persons who were not equityholders of the Buyer prior thereto (whether by stock sale, merger or otherwise) and/or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Buyer and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to an entity a majority of which is owned by Persons who were not direct or indirect equityholders of the Buyer prior thereto. In addition, nothing in Section 10.4(b) shall prevent Buyer or its Affiliates from acquiring a business that prior to the acquisition already is taking the actions set forth in Section 10.4(b) (the “Target”) so long as the division of the Target that is already is taking the actions set forth in Section 10.4(b) constitutes 30% or less of the revenue of the Target and the Target does not thereafter seek to expand such division outside the ordinary course of business of the Target.

10.5 Member Damages; Reasonable Restraint; Independent Covenants.

(a) Because of the difficulty of measuring economic losses to the Member and its Affiliates as a result of a breach of the foregoing covenants in this ARTICLE X, and because of the immediate and irreparable damage that could be caused to the Member and its Affiliates for which it would have no other adequate remedy, the Buyer agrees that the foregoing covenant may be enforced by the Member in the event of breach or threatened breach by the Buyer, in addition to, but not in lieu of, any other available remedies (including, without limitation, monetary Damages), by injunctions, restraining orders or other equitable remedies, without necessity of posting an injunction bond.

(b) It is agreed by the Parties that the foregoing covenants in this ARTICLE X impose a reasonable restraint on the Buyer in light of the activities and business of the Member and the Member’s Affiliates on the Signing Date and the current plans of the Company, the Buyer and its Affiliates. The Member agrees that the foregoing covenants in this ARTICLE X do not unreasonably restrict the Buyer’s ability to earn a livelihood.

(c) Each of the covenants in this ARTICLE X shall be construed as an agreement independent of any other provision in this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action of the Buyer against the Member, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Member of any such covenant. It is understood by the Parties that the covenants contained in this ARTICLE X are essential elements of this Agreement and that, but for the agreement of the Buyer to comply with such covenants, the Member would not have agreed to enter into this Agreement. The Buyer and the Member have independently consulted with their respective counsel and have been advised concerning the reasonableness and propriety of such covenants with specific regard to the nature of the business conducted by the Member. The Buyer hereby agrees that all covenants contained in this ARTICLE X are material, reasonable and valid, and waives all defenses related to the Member’s failure to strictly enforce such covenants. The covenants in this ARTICLE X are severable and separate, and the unenforceability of any specific covenant shall not affect the provisions of any other covenant. Moreover, in the event that any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that the scope, time or territorial restrictions set forth are unreasonable, then it is the intention of the Parties that such restrictions be enforced to the fullest extent which the court deems reasonable, and the Agreement shall thereby be reformed. The covenants contained in this ARTICLE X shall have no effect if the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are not consummated.

ARTICLE XI

11.1 Termination.

(a) This Agreement may, by notice given on or prior to the Closing Date, in the manner hereinafter provided, be terminated and abandoned at any time prior to the Closing Date:

(i) by the Member if there has been a material misrepresentation or a material default or intentional breach by the Buyer with respect to its representations in this Agreement or the due and timely performance by the Buyer of any of the Buyer’s covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement, and such misrepresentation, default or breach shall not have been cured within five (5) business days after receipt by the Buyer of notice specifying particularly such misrepresentation, default or breach;

(ii) by the Buyer if there has been a material misrepresentation or a material default or intentional breach by any Seller Party with respect to any of their respective representations in this Agreement or the due and timely performance by any Seller Party of any of their respective covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement, and such misrepresentation, default or breach shall not have been cured within five (5) business days after receipt by any Seller Party of notice specifying particularly such misrepresentation, default or breach;

(iii) by mutual written agreement of the Member and the Buyer;

(iv) by the Buyer if there shall have occurred since the Signing Date (A) an effect, event or change which, individually or in the aggregate, has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company or (B) any resignation or termination of employment by a material number of Company Employees; provided that the Buyer may terminate this agreement under this subsection (v) no more than ten (10) business days following Buyer’s knowledge of the matters described in (A) or (B);

(v) by the Member, on the one hand, or by the Buyer, on the other hand, if there shall be a final nonappealable order of a federal or state court in effect preventing the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; or there shall be any action taken, or any statute, rule, regulation or order enacted, promulgated or issued or deemed applicable to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by any Governmental Authority which would make the consummation of the transactions illegal; or

(vi) by either the Member or the Buyer if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before December 31, 2010; provided, however, that the Party seeking to terminate this Agreement shall not because of its (and in the case of the Member, the Company’s) breach or violation of any representation, warranty or covenant contained herein have caused the Closing not to have occurred;

(b) In the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.1(a), (i) the Interest Purchase shall be abandoned; (ii) the provisions of Section 6.3, this ARTICLE XI and ARTICLE XII shall remain in full force and effect and survive any termination of this Agreement; and (iii) each Party shall remain liable only for any willful breach of this Agreement prior to its termination.

MISCELLANEOUS

12.1 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Seller Parties and the Buyer and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided, however, that no Party shall make any assignment of this Agreement or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the other Parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld and any such purported assignment without such prior written consent shall be void and of no force or effect; provided, further, that the Buyer may assign all or any portion of this Agreement to any Affiliate of the Buyer (or any lender to the Buyer in connection with any collateral rights), provided that the Buyer will also remain obligated for the payment of the Purchase Price and the performance of this Agreement (including without limitation the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 10 hereof).

12.2 Governing Law. This Agreement shall in all respects be interpreted, construed and governed by and in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflicts of laws principles.

12.3 Specific Performance; Remedies. Each Party acknowledges that the other Parties shall be irreparably harmed and that there shall be no adequate remedy at law for any violation by any of them of any of the covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement. It is accordingly agreed that, in addition to, but not in lieu of, any other remedies that may be available upon the breach of any such covenants or agreements (including, without limitation, monetary Damages), each Party shall have the right to obtain injunctive relief to restrain a breach or threatened breach of, or otherwise to obtain specific performance of, the other Parties’ covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement. Except as otherwise provided herein, all rights and remedies of the Parties under this Agreement shall be cumulative, and the exercise of one or more rights or remedies shall not preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy available under this Agreement or applicable Law.

12.4 Severability. Each section, subsection and lesser section of this Agreement constitutes a separate and distinct undertaking, covenant and/or provision hereof. In the event that any provision of this Agreement shall finally be determined to be unlawful, such provision shall be deemed severed from this Agreement, but every other provision of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect; provided, however, that if such unlawful provision is so material to the Party for whose benefit the provision was originally included so that such Party would not have entered into this Agreement without such unlawful provision, the severability of such provision shall be arbitrated pursuant to Section 12.9 hereof. The preceding sentence is in addition to and not in place of the severability provisions in ARTICLE X.

12.5 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended, supplemented or modified only by execution of a written instrument signed by the Parties.

12.6 Waiver.

No such extension or waiver shall be effective unless set forth in a written instrument duly executed by or on behalf of the Party extending the time of performance or waiving any such inaccuracy or non-compliance. No waiver by any Party of any term of this Agreement, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be or construed as a waiver of the same or any other term of this Agreement on any future occasion.

12.9 Arbitration.

(a) Except as set forth in ARTICLE X, Section 12.3 and Section 12.9(c) hereof, any dispute, difference, controversy or claim arising in connection with or related or incidental to, or question occurring under, this Agreement or the subject matter hereof shall be finally settled under the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), unless otherwise agreed, by an arbitral tribunal composed of three (3) arbitrators, at least one (1) of whom shall be an attorney with at least ten (10) years of experience in mergers and acquisitions transactions, appointed by agreement of the Buyer and the Member in accordance with said Rules. In the event Buyer and the Member fail to agree upon a panel of arbitrators from the first list of potential arbitrators proposed by the AAA, the AAA will submit a second list in accordance with such Rules. In the event Buyer and the Member shall have failed to agree upon a full panel of arbitrators from such second list, any remaining arbitrators to be selected shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with such Rules. If at the time of the arbitration Buyer and the Member agree in writing to submit the dispute to a single arbitrator, such single arbitrator shall be appointed by agreement of Buyer and the Member in connection with the foregoing procedure or failing such agreement by the AAA in accordance with such Rules. All arbitrators shall be neutral arbitrators and subject to Rule 19 of the Rules.

(b) The arbitrators shall (i) apply the substantive (not the conflicts) Laws of the State of Delaware, (ii) base any award on this Agreement and applicable Law and judicial precedent, (iii) not have the authority to add to, detract from, or modify any provision hereof and (iv) not award punitive damages to any injured Party. Any discovery in connection with the arbitration proceedings shall be governed by the Rules. Any dispute regarding discovery, including disputes as to the scope thereof, shall be determined by the arbitrators, which determination shall be final, conclusive and binding. A decision by a majority of the arbitrators shall be final, conclusive and binding. The arbitrators shall deliver a written and reasoned award with respect to the dispute to each of the parties to the dispute, difference, controversy or claim, who shall promptly act in accordance therewith. Any arbitration proceeding shall be held in Fairfax County, Virginia.

(c) The arbitration proceedings conducted pursuant hereto shall be confidential. No Party shall disclose any information about the arbitration proceedings or the evidence adduced by the other Parties in any arbitration proceeding or about documents provided by the other Parties in connection with the proceeding except in the course of a judicial, regulatory or arbitration proceeding or as may be requested by a Governmental Authority or as required or advisable under Law or exchange rules. Before making any disclosure permitted by the preceding sentence, the Party intending to make such disclosure shall give the other Parties reasonable written notice of the intended disclosure. The arbitrator, expert witnesses and stenographic reporters shall be asked to sign appropriate non-disclosure agreements in order to effectuate this Agreement of the parties as to confidentiality.

(d) The Parties hereby exclude any right of appeal to any court on the merits of the dispute. The provisions of this Section 12.9 may be enforced in any court having jurisdiction over the award or any of the Parties or any of their respective assets, and judgment on the award (including without limitation equitable remedies) granted in any arbitration hereunder may be entered in any such court. Nothing contained in this Section 12.9 shall prevent any Party from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction, without the need to resort to arbitration.

12.10 Complete Agreement. This Agreement, those documents expressly referred to herein, including all appendices, exhibits and schedules hereto, and the other documents of even date herewith, together with the Non-Disclosure Agreement, between the Buyer and the Company (which shall terminate automatically at the Closing), embody the complete agreement and understanding among the Parties and supersede and preempt any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the Parties, written or oral, which may have related to the subject matter hereof. Notwithstanding the right of the Buyer to investigate the assets, properties, books, records and financial condition of the Company, and notwithstanding any knowledge obtained or obtainable by the Buyer as a result of such investigation, the Buyer has the unqualified right to rely upon, and has relied upon, each of the representations and warranties made by the Company and the Member in this Agreement or pursuant hereto. No information or knowledge obtained in any investigation by the Buyer shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty of the Company or the Member contained herein (or in any list, certificate, schedule or other instrument, document, agreement or writing furnished or to be furnished to or made with the Buyer pursuant hereto) or the conditions to the obligations of the Parties to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Any claim by the Buyer in connection with this Agreement shall not be adversely affected by any investigation by or opportunity to investigate afforded to the Buyer, nor shall such a claim be adversely affected by the Buyer’s knowledge on or before the Closing Date of any breach or of any state of facts that may give rise to such a breach. Unless explicitly agreed in writing or waived pursuant to the last sentence of Section 6.4, the waiver of any condition based on the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or compliance with any covenant or obligation, shall not adversely affect the right to indemnification, payment of Damages or other remedy based on such representations, warranties, covenants or obligations.

12.11 Absence of Third Party Beneficiary Rights. Except for ARTICLE IX (which shall be for the benefit of the Indemnified Parties), no provision of this Agreement is intended, nor will it be interpreted, to provide or create any third party beneficiary rights or any other rights of any kind in any client, customer, Affiliate, shareholder, member, employee or partner of any Party hereto or any other Person.

12.12 Mutual Drafting. This Agreement is the mutual product of the Parties, and each provision hereof has been subject to the mutual consultation, negotiation and agreement of each of the Parties, and shall not be construed for or against any Party hereto, but according to the application of the rules of interpretation of contracts.

12.13 Further Representations. Each Party acknowledges and represents that it has been represented by its own legal counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, with the opportunity to seek advice as to its legal rights from such counsel. Each Party further represents that it is being independently advised as to the Tax or securities consequences of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and is not relying on any representations or statements made by any other Party as to such Tax and securities consequences.

12.14 Representation of Company and its Affiliates. The Parties agree that, notwithstanding the fact that Holland & Knight LLP may have jointly represented Company and/or its Affiliates in connection with this Agreement, and has also represented Company in connection with matters other than the transaction that is the subject of this Agreement prior to Closing, Holland & Knight LLP will be permitted in the future, after Closing, to represent one or more of such Affiliates, or their respective equity holders, officers, directors or managers in connection with matters in which such Affiliates or their respective equity holders, officers, directors or managers are adverse to the Company or any of its Affiliates, including without limitation any disputes that such Affiliates or their respective equity holders, officers, directors or managers may hereafter have with the Company and/or with the Buyer arising out of, or related to, this Agreement. The Company and the Buyer, who is represented by independent counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, hereby agree, in advance, to waive any actual or potential conflict of interest that may hereafter arise in connection with Holland & Knight’s future representation of one or more of the Company’s Affiliates or their respective equity holders, officers, directors or managers on matters in which the interests of such Affiliate or their respective equity holders, officers, directors or managers are adverse to the interests of the Company and/or the Buyer, including any matters that arise out of this Agreement or that are substantially related to this Agreement or to any prior representation by Holland & Knight LLP of the Company. The Parties further agree that notwithstanding any law or rules to the contrary, all confidential communications between Holland & Knight LLP and the Company, its Affiliates or their respective equity holders, officers, directors or managers that occurred in the context of Holland & Knight LLP’s representation of the Company prior to Closing will remain privileged as between Holland & Knight LLP and such Affiliate(s) or their respective equity holders, officers, directors or managers after the Closing, and the Company and the Buyer hereby agree that they will not seek disclosure of any such communications from Holland & Knight LLP or from such Affiliates or their respective equity holders, officers, directors or managers after Closing, in the context of litigation or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company does not waive any rights related to Holland & Knight LLP’s representation in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the right to waive the attorney-client privilege with respect to communications during such representation.

12.15 Disclosure Schedules. The schedules, exhibits and disclosure schedules to this Agreement are a material part of this Agreement as if fully set forth in this Agreement and are intended only to qualify and limit the representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Agreement, and will not be deemed to expand in any way the scope or effect of any of such representations, warranties or covenants. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that: (i) certain agreements and other matters may be listed in the disclosure schedules for informational purposes only, as they do not rise above applicable materiality thresholds or their disclosure is not otherwise required under the terms of this Agreement (items that are not required to be disclosed but are disclosed, the “Informational Disclosures”), (ii) in no event will the Informational Disclosures be deemed or interpreted to broaden or otherwise amplify or influence the construction or interpretation of any of the representations and warranties, (iii) disclosures made for the purpose of any section or sections of the disclosure schedules will be deemed made for the purpose of all sections so long as cross-references are made or the applicability to the other section(s) is reasonably apparent on the face of such disclosure, (iv) headings will not be deemed to modify or influence the interpretation of the information contained in the disclosure schedules or this Agreement, (v) no reference to or disclosure of any item or other matter in the disclosure schedules will be construed as an admission or indication that such item or other matter is material or that such item or other matter is required to be referred to or disclosed in the disclosure schedules, (vi) the inclusion of any matter, information or item in the disclosure schedules will not be deemed to constitute an admission of any liability by Company or Seller to any third party or otherwise imply, that any such matter, information or item is material or creates a measure for materiality for the purposes of this Agreement, and (vii) summaries of or references to any written document in the disclosure schedules do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the written documents themselves. Section headings in the disclosure schedules have been inserted for reference only and do not amend or otherwise give meaning to the descriptions of the disclosed items set forth therein.

12.16 Gender. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, where appropriate the singular shall include the plural and the masculine shall include the feminine or neuter, and vice versa, to the extent necessary to give the terms defined herein and/or the terms otherwise used in this Agreement the proper meanings.

12.17 Document Availability. For the Company to have made a document “available” to the Buyer or “provided” or “delivered” it, such document must have been uploaded to the Company’s electronic datasite at least two (2) days prior to the execution of this Agreement with advance or contemporaneous written notice having been provided by the Company to the Buyer.

12.18 Headings. The headings in this Agreement are intended solely for convenience of reference and shall be given no effect in the construction or interpretation of this Agreement.

12.19 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which when executed and delivered shall be deemed an original and all of which, taken together, shall constitute the same agreement. This Agreement and any document, certificate or schedule required hereby may be executed and delivered by facsimile or electronic mail of a “.pdf” data file, which shall be considered legally binding for all purposes.

12.20 Amendment and Restatement. The Parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement amends and restates and replaces in its entirety that certain Purchase Agreement by and among the Parties, dated November 4, 2010, including that certain First Amendment to Purchase Agreement dated November 19, 2010. If any ambiguity herein is caused solely due to the fact that this Amended and Restated Purchase Agreement is effective as of December 17, 2010 but provisions herein were drafted to be effective as of the Signing Date, such ambiguous provisions shall be interpreted as if this Amended and Restated Purchase Agreement was effective as of November 4, 2010.

[Signatures appear on following page(s).]

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each Party hereto has signed or has caused to be signed by its officer thereunto duly authorized this Amended and Restated Purchase Agreement as of the date first above written.
