(immediately prior to the Closing) debts or obligations owed to third parties under any Assumed Contracts.

2.5 Purchase Price.

(a) Preliminary Base Purchase Price. In consideration for the sale and transfer of the Acquired Assets, the Purchaser shall pay or cause to be paid to the Company at the Closing, by wire transfer of immediately available funds and in lawful currency of the United States to one or more accounts designated in writing by the Seller Parties, cash equal to the Preliminary Base Purchase Price.

(b) Payment of Final Base Purchase Price. Following the Closing Date, (i) if the Final Base Purchase Price exceeds the Preliminary Base Purchase Price, the Purchaser shall pay to the Seller Parties an amount equal to such excess in cash, or (ii) if the Final Base Purchase Price is less than the Preliminary Base Purchase Price, the Seller Parties shall pay to the Purchaser an amount equal to such shortfall in cash (such payment, as the case may be, by the Seller Parties to the Purchaser or the Purchaser to the Seller Parties the “Base Purchase Price Settlement Payment”). The Base Purchase Price Settlement Payment shall be made within five (5) Business Days from the date on which the Base Purchase Price Determination Certificate has become final and binding upon the parties hereto. Any amounts not paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of prime plus three percent (3%) per annum.

(i) For the purpose of determining the Final Base Purchase Price, as promptly as practical, but in any event within thirty (30) Business Days after the Closing Date, the Seller Parties shall prepare, and the Seller Parties shall deliver to the Purchaser (i) a balance sheet for KNE as of the Closing Date (the “KNE Closing Balance Sheet”), which shall be prepared in accordance with the consistently applied accounting and valuation principles used in the preparation of the KNE Balance Sheet and GAAP (except as otherwise agreed herein) and (ii) a written certificate derived from the KNE Closing Balance Sheet (the “Base Purchase Price Determination Certificate”) setting forth the Seller Parties’ calculation of the Final Base Purchase Price and the amount of Base Purchase Price Settlement Payment. The parties agree to work together in good faith to determine the amount of all Liabilities, payments and obligations relating to the termination of the KNE Lay-Off Employees or otherwise arising under the KNE Lay-Off Employee Ancillary Contracts, and that all such Liabilities, payments and obligations shall be included on the KNE Closing Balance Sheet, whether to be accrued under GAAP or not, it being understood that the Seller Parties shall cause KNE to have an amount of cash and cash equivalents as of the Closing Date equal to or greater than such Liabilities, payments and obligations.

(ii) For the purpose of reviewing the KNE Closing Balance Sheet and the Base Purchase Price Determination Certificate as well as for the resolution of disputes, the Seller Parties shall grant the Purchaser access to all

reasonably required information, in order to enable the Purchaser to review the KNE Closing Balance Sheet and the Base Purchase Price Determination Certificate.

(iii) Any objections of the Purchaser to the KNE Closing Balance Sheet and the Base Purchase Price Determination Certificate must be raised within thirty (30) Business Days after receipt of the KNE Closing Balance Sheet and the Base Purchase Price Determination Certificate by providing the Seller Parties with (i) a written statement of objections (the “Disputed Items”), specifying in detail the grounds for the objections and (ii) a revised version of the Base Purchase Price Determination Certificate (the “Revised Base Purchase Price Determination Certificate”) taking the Purchaser’s position as to the Disputed Items into account. If and to the extent that the Purchaser does not timely state its Disputed Items in accordance with the requirements of the foregoing sentence, the Base Purchase Price Determination Certificate provided by the Seller Parties shall, with the expiration of such period, become final and binding upon the Parties.

(iv) If the Purchaser has duly delivered a written statement of objections, the Seller Parties and Purchaser shall, within thirty (30) Business Days following receipt of the written statement of objections by the Seller Parties (or within any other period of time mutually agreed upon between the Seller Parties and the Purchaser), use all reasonable efforts to reach an agreement on the Disputed Items. If and to the extent that, during such period, the Seller Parties and the Purchaser cannot reach an agreement on the Disputed Items either of them may present the matter to a neutral auditor from an auditing firm of international standing to be jointly appointed by them (the “Neutral Auditor”). If the Seller and the Purchaser cannot agree on the Neutral Auditor within ten (10) Business Days of a written request of either of them for such appointment, the Neutral Auditor shall at the request of either of them be a German certified accountant to be determined by the institute of Chartered Accountants in Dusseldorf after consideration of the proposals and comments by the Seller Parties and the Purchaser. The Seller Parties and the Purchaser shall jointly instruct the Neutral Auditor to decide the issues in dispute in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

(v) Unless jointly instructed otherwise by the Seller Parties and the Purchaser, the Neutral Auditor shall limit its decisions to the Disputed Items, but shall as basis for such decisions also duly take into account the undisputed parts of the KNE Closing Balance Sheet and the Base Purchase Price Determination Certificate. If and to the extent the Neutral Auditor’s decisions require the interpretation of provisions of this Agreement, the Neutral Auditor shall be entitled to interpret them as far as necessary to determine the Disputed Items and to reach a decision on them. Other decisions, e.g. concerning disputes about legal procedures or the fulfillment of procedural requirements, shall not be within the scope of the Neutral Auditor’s tasks. The Neutral Auditor shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator.

(vi) The Parties shall make available to the Neutral Auditor the KNE Closing Balance Sheet and the Base Purchase Price Determination Certificate, the written statement of Disputed Items, the Revised Base Purchase Price Determination Certificate and all other documents and other data reasonably required by the Neutral Auditor to make the required decisions and determination. The Neutral Auditor shall immediately submit copies of all documents and other data made available by one party to the respective other party. Before deciding on the Disputed Items put to it by the Seller Parties and the Purchaser, the Neutral Auditor shall grant the Seller Parties and the Purchaser the opportunity to present their respective positions, which shall include the opportunity of at least one oral hearing in the presence of both of them and their professional advisers. The Seller Parties and the Purchaser shall instruct the Neutral Auditor to use its best efforts to deliver its written opinion with reasons for the decisions as soon as reasonably practical, but not later than within two (2) months of the issues in dispute having been referred to the Neutral Auditor. Except for manifest error or intentional fault, the Neutral Auditor’s decisions on the KNE Closing Balance Sheet and the Base Purchase Price Determination Certificate as determined by the Neutral Auditor shall be final and binding upon the parties for the purpose of determining the KNE Closing Balance Sheet and the Base Purchase Price Determination Certificate. The fees and disbursements of the Neutral Auditor shall be shared between the Seller Parties and the Purchaser in proportion to their respective success and defeat as determined by the Neutral Auditor.

(d) Following the Closing, the Seller Parties shall promptly pay to the Purchaser any amounts that may be received by any of the Seller Parties after the Effective Time with respect to any of the Acquired Assets, including, without limitation, the Trade Receivables.

2.6 Additional Consideration. As additional consideration for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Purchaser shall pay to the Seller Parties the additional consideration (the “Post-Closing Payment”), as follows:

(a) From and after the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall, within thirty (30) days of the end of each fiscal quarter of the Purchaser, deliver to the Company a written report, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, detailing the Cumulative Revenue for such fiscal quarter and the aggregate Cumulative Revenue since the Closing Date (each, a “Cumulative Revenue Report”).

(b) Post-Closing Payment. Within ten (10) Business Days after delivery of the Cumulative Revenue Report in which it is reported that the aggregate Cumulative Revenue since the Closing Date meets or exceeds $20,000,000, the Purchaser shall pay to the Seller Parties an amount equal to $6,000,000.

2.7 Allocation.

(a) No later than sixty (60) days following the Closing Date, the Purchaser will submit to the Seller Parties its allocation of the Purchase Price, the Post-Closing Payment plus Assumed Liabilities and any other items of consideration for purposes of Section 1060 of

the Code, in each case, to the extent properly taken into account under the Code and the applicable Treasury Regulations, among the Acquired Assets and the non-competition undertakings contained in the Non-Competition and Confidentiality Agreement, subject to the approval of the Seller Parties, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld (the “Allocation”). The Allocation will be made in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder. The Purchaser and the Seller Parties agree to revise the Allocation to reflect any Final Base Purchase Price, Post-Closing Payment, Assumed Liabilities or any other item of consideration for purposes of Section 1060 of the Code, in each case to the extent not previously taken into account for purposes of the Allocation.

(b) The Purchaser and the Seller Parties agree to (i) be bound by the Allocation, (ii) act in accordance with the Allocation in the filing of all Tax Returns (including filing Form 8594 with their United States federal income Tax Return for the taxable year that includes the Closing Date) and in the course of any Tax audit, Tax review or Tax litigation relating thereto, and (iii) take no position and cause their Affiliates to take no position inconsistent with the Allocation for income Tax purposes, including United States federal and state income Tax and non-U.S. income Tax, unless otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code. Not later than thirty (30) days prior to the filing of their respective Forms 8594 relating to this transaction if such filing is required by Law, each of the Purchaser and the Seller Parties shall deliver to the other a copy of its Form 8594.

2.8 Transfer Taxes. All transfer, stamp, documentary, sales, recording, conveyance, notary fees and similar Taxes imposed by reason of the transfers of Acquired Assets provided hereunder and any deficiency, interest or penalty asserted with respect thereto (“Transfer Taxes”) shall be shared equally by the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Seller Parties, on the other hand; provided, however, that the Seller Parties shall be solely responsible for any and all Transfer Taxes in excess of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000). All Transfer Taxes shall be paid to the relevant Taxing authority by the Seller Parties when due, subject to prompt reimbursement by the Purchaser in accordance with the foregoing. The Seller Parties shall file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such Transfer Taxes; provided, that, the Seller Parties shall permit the Purchaser to review and comment on each such Tax Return and other documentation prior to filing and shall make such revisions to each such Tax Return and other documentation as are reasonably requested by the Purchaser. If required by applicable Law, the Purchaser will, and will cause its Affiliates to, join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation. The Seller Parties shall provide the Purchaser with evidence satisfactory to the Purchaser that such Transfer Taxes have been paid by the Seller Parties. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, for any Acquired Asset for which any Transfer Taxes have already been imposed in connection with the Closing, the term Transfer Taxes shall not include any additional Taxes imposed by reason of any subsequent transfer from the Seller Parties to the Purchaser of Acquired Assets following the Closing.

2.9 Alternative Arrangements. Notwithstanding anything contained herein or in any agreement or certificate executed and delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby to the contrary, neither this Agreement nor any such agreement or certificate shall constitute an agreement to assign any Contract, Permit or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom if an attempted assignment thereof, without

the consent of a third party thereto, would constitute a default thereof. If such consent is not obtained, or if an attempted assignment thereof would be ineffective or would affect the rights thereunder so that the Purchaser would not receive all such rights, the Seller Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effect alternative arrangements in the form of a license, sublease, or operating agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser and the Seller Parties until such time as such consent or approval has been obtained that results in the Purchaser receiving substantially all of the benefits under and bearing all the ordinary course costs, liabilities and other obligations with respect to any such Contract or Permit. Upon obtaining the requisite third party consent thereto, each such non-assignable Contract or Permit shall be transferred and assigned to the Purchaser hereunder.

ARTICLE III

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES RELATING TO THE BUSINESS

The Seller Parties hereby, jointly and severally, represent and warrant to the Purchaser as follows, which representations and warranties shall (subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement) be true and correct as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date:

3.1 Organization.

(a) Seller Parties. Each of the Seller Parties is an entity duly formed, validly existing and in good standing (in jurisdictions that recognize the concept of “good standing”) under the Laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, has all requisite company, corporate or other power to own, lease and operate its properties and assets and to carry on the Business as now being conducted. Each of the Seller Parties is duly qualified or licensed to do business and is in good standing as a foreign entity in each jurisdiction in which the nature of its business or ownership or leasing of its properties or assets makes such qualification or licensing necessary.

(b) KNE.

(i) KNE is a limited liability company (Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung) duly organized and validly existing under the laws of Germany, registered with the commercial register (Handelsregister) of the local court (Amtsgericht) of Frankfurt am Main under registration number HRB 53985 and having its registered office in Frankfurt am Main/Germany. Schedule 3.1(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule contains true and complete copies of KNE’s current articles of association and commercial register excerpt. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.1(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, there are no shareholder resolutions or other facts which require any registration in KNE’s commercial register which have not been registered therein. KNE is not a party to any agreement that grants any third party (including the Sellers Parties and their Affiliates) any rights with respect to the corporate governance or the profits (or a portion thereof) of KNE, including inter-company agreements (Unternehmensverträge) within the meaning of sections 291 et seq. of the German

Stock Corporation Act, silent partnership agreements (stille Beteiligungsverträge) and similar agreements.

(ii) KNE has all requisite corporate power to own, lease and operate its properties and assets and to carry on the Business as now being conducted, and is duly qualified and/or licensed to do business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which the nature of its business or ownership or leasing of its properties and assets makes such qualification or licensing necessary.

(iii) The registered share capital of KNE amounts to EUR 600,000 (in words: Euro six hundred thousand). KNE’s entire registered share capital is represented by the KNE Share. The KNE Share is duly authorized and validly issued. The KNE Share is legally and beneficially owned by KNH, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. There are no agreements or commitments providing for the issuance of additional shares in KNE. The KNE Share is fully paid-up and all non-cash contributions have been made at values not exceeding the fair market value of such contribution. No (cash or non-cash) contribution or any portion thereof has been (neither directly nor indirectly) repaid or otherwise returned. No hidden distribution of profits (verdeckte Gewinnausschüttung) have been made. There is no obligation to make any outstanding or additional capital contribution with respect to the KNE Share. The KNE Share is free and clear of any Liens or other rights of third parties. There are no pre-emptive rights, rights of first refusal, options or other rights of any third party to purchase or acquire the KNE Share.

(iv) No bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation or similar proceedings (whether mandatory or voluntary) are pending and no filing for such proceedings has been made or is required with respect to KNE. KNE has not entered into any moratorium agreement or similar agreement with its creditors. KNE has not stopped or suspended payment of its debts, become unable to pay its debts or otherwise become insolvent in any jurisdiction. No assets of KNE have been seized or confiscated by or on behalf of any third party nor are any foreclosure, forfeiture, execution or enforcement proceedings pending with respect to KNE or its assets. There are no facts or events which may reasonably be expected to result in any proceedings, events of circumstances as referred to in this Section 3.1(b) (iv).

(v) KNE does not hold any shares or equity interests in any other Person.

3.2 Authority; No Conflict; Required Filings and Consents.

(a) Each Seller Party has all requisite corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of each Seller Party and KNE. This Agreement has been

duly executed and delivered by each Seller Party. This Agreement constitutes, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by the Purchaser, the valid and binding obligation of each Seller Party, enforceable against each Seller Party in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium or other Laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity, regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity. No vote or written consent of any holder of securities of any Seller Party or of KNE (except as set forth in KNE’s articles of association) is necessary to approve this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby except such as has been obtained prior to the date hereof.

(b) The execution and delivery by each Seller Party of this Agreement does not, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not, (i) result in the creation of any Liens on any of the Acquired Assets (other than Permitted Liens and Liens created pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the other agreements and documents executed in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby), (ii) conflict with, or result in any violation or breach of any provision of the articles of organization, certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other formation documents of any Seller Party or KNE, (iii) violate any Laws applicable to any Seller Party or KNE, or (iv) except as set forth on Schedule 3.2(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, conflict with or result in a breach of, or give rise to a right of termination or amendment of or loss of benefit under, or accelerate the performance required by the terms of any judgment, court order or consent decree, or any Assumed Contract or any KNE Contract or constitute a default thereunder.

(c) Neither the execution and delivery by the Seller Parties of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will require any consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, declaration or filing with, or notification to any Governmental Entity or any Person, except for (i) such consents, approvals, orders, authorizations, registrations, declarations and filings as may be required under applicable federal and state securities Laws and (ii) such other consents, approvals, authorizations, permits, filings, registrations and notifications which are listed on Schedule 3.2(c) of the Company Disclosure Schedule.

3.3 Tax Matters.

(a) All material Tax Returns related to the Business required to be filed prior to the date hereof by the any Seller Party have been filed. All such Tax Returns are complete and accurate in all material respects. All material Taxes of any Seller Party whether or not shown on such Tax Returns have been timely paid. The Seller Parties have withheld and paid over all Taxes related to the Business required to have been withheld and paid over prior to the date hereof in connection with amounts paid or owing to any employee, independent contractor, or other third party. There are no Liens on any of the Acquired Assets with respect to Taxes, other than Permitted Liens. No written claim has ever been made to a Seller Party by an authority in a jurisdiction where such Seller Party does not file Tax Returns that it is or may be subject to taxation by that jurisdiction.

(b) All material Tax Returns required to be filed prior to the date hereof by KNE have been filed in each relevant jurisdiction. All such Tax Returns are complete and accurate in all material respects. All material Taxes of KNE whether or not shown on such Tax Returns have been timely paid, and there are no claims or Liens outstanding against KNE or any of its property or assets with respect to any unpaid or disputed Taxes. KNE has withheld and paid over all Taxes required to have been withheld and paid over prior to the date hereof in connection with amounts paid or owing to any employee, independent contractor, or other third party.

(a) Registered Intellectual Property Rights. Schedule 3.6(a)(i) of the Company Disclosure Schedule contains a true and complete list of all Intellectual Property Rights that have been registered with a Governmental Entity, including: (i) for each patent and patent application, the patent number or application serial number for each jurisdiction in which the patent or application has been filed, the date filed or issued, the owner thereof, and the present status thereof; (ii) for each registered trademark, trade name or service mark, the application serial number or registration number, for each country, province and state, and the class of goods covered, the date filed or issued, the owner thereof, and the present status thereof; (iii) for any URL or domain name, the registration date, any renewal date and name of registry, the date filed or issued, the owner thereof, and the present status thereof; and (iv) for each registered copyrighted work, the number and date of registration for each by country, province and state in which a copyright application has been registered, the date filed or issued, the owner thereof, and the present status thereof (the “Registered Intellectual Property Rights”). Other than the Intellectual Property Rights listed on Schedule 3.6(a)(i) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, (A) no provisional applications, nonprovisional applications, substitutions, extensions, reissues, reexaminations, renewals, divisions, continuations, continuations-in-part, parents or other related applications have been filed or issued with respect to the Acquired Technology, and (B) no counterpart applications of the Registered Intellectual Property Rights have been filed or issued in any country.

All registration, maintenance, issue, annuities, renewal, and other fees required to maintain the Intellectual Property Rights, which were due prior to the date hereof, have been paid, and all necessary documents and certificates in connection with Registered Intellectual Property Rights have been filed with the relevant patent, copyright, trademark or other authorities in the United States or foreign jurisdictions, as the case may be,

for the purposes of maintaining such Registered Intellectual Property Rights. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.6(a)(ii) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, there are no actions that must be taken by the Seller Parties or KNE, to the Company’s Knowledge, during the one hundred-twenty (120) day period beginning on the date of this Agreement, including the payment of any registration, maintenance, issue, annuities, renewal, and other fees or the filing of any responses to U.S. Patent and Trademark Office office actions, documents, applications or certificates for the purposes of obtaining, maintaining, perfecting or preserving or renewing any Registered Intellectual Property Rights. Except as otherwise set forth on Schedule 3.6(a)(i) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, each owner listed in Schedule 3.6(a)(i) of the Company Disclosure Schedule is listed in the records of the appropriate Governmental Entity as the sole owner of record.

(b) Licensed Intellectual Property Rights. Schedule 3.6(b)(i) of the Company Disclosure Schedule lists all Contracts to which any of the Seller Parties is a party with respect to any Intellectual Property Rights (“Intellectual Property Contracts”) and a summary of the Seller Parties’ remaining payment and accounting obligations, if any, with respect to each of such Intellectual Property Contracts, other than “shrink wrap,” “click wrap” and other similar license agreements relating to software applications that are generally available to the public. Schedule 3.6(b)(ii) of the Company Disclosure Schedule sets forth all Intellectual Property Contracts entered into between the Seller Parties or KNE and a third party for use of third party Proprietary Rights by the Seller Parties or KNE in connection with any of the Acquired Technology. Except for “shrink wrap,” “click wrap” and other similar license agreements relating to software applications that are generally available to the public, to the extent that any third party Proprietary Rights are incorporated into, integrated or bundled with, or used by the Seller Parties or KNE in the development, manufacture or compilation of any of the Acquired Technology, the Seller Parties have a written agreement with such third party with respect thereto pursuant to which the Seller Parties or KNE either have obtained complete, unencumbered and unrestricted ownership of, and are the exclusive owners of, or have obtained perpetual, nonterminable licenses sufficient for the conduct of the Business to all such third party Proprietary Rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller Parties are the sole and lawful owners of all right, title, and interest in and to the Patent Rights to be assigned to the Purchaser in connection with this Agreement, and the Seller Parties have good and full right and lawful authority to sell and convey such Patent Rights to the Purchaser. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.6(b)(iii) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, as of the date of this Agreement, the Seller Parties and KNE have not granted licenses or covenants not to sue, or sold or otherwise transferred (other than standard licenses or rights to use granted to customers and distributors in the ordinary course of its business) any of the Intellectual Property Rights to any third party, and there exists no obligation by the Seller Parties or KNE to assign, license or otherwise transfer any of the Intellectual Property Rights to any third party (other than the obligations of the Seller Parties hereunder). No party to any Intellectual Property Contract set forth on Schedule 3.6(b)(i) of the Company Disclosure Schedule is in breach or default in any material respect, and no written notice of termination has been given or threatened. The Seller Parties and KNE do not have an explicit or implied legal obligation, absolute or contingent, to any Person to sell, transfer or assign any of the Intellectual Property Rights. None of the Intellectual Property Contracts listed in Schedule 3.6(b)(i) of the Company Disclosure Schedule grants, or sets forth or creates an obligation to grant, any third party exclusive rights in, to or under any of the Intellectual

Property Rights, or grants, or sets forth or creates an obligation to grant, any third party the right to sublicense any of the Intellectual Property Rights. Except pursuant to the Intellectual Property Contracts set forth on Schedule 3.6(b)(ii) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, the Seller Parties and KNE are not compensating and have no obligation to compensate or account to any Person for the use of any of the Intellectual Property Rights or Acquired Technology. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not result in (i) the modification, cancellation, termination, suspension of, or acceleration of any payments with respect to any Intellectual Property Contract, nor give any third party to any Intellectual Property Contract the right to do any of the foregoing, (ii) the forfeiture or termination of any of the Intellectual Property Rights, or impair the right of the Purchaser or KNE to use, possess, sell or license any of the Intellectual Property Rights, (iii) the Purchaser’s or KNE’s granting to any third party any right to or with respect to any Acquired Technology or Intellectual Property Rights owned by, or licensed to, any Seller Party or KNE, (iv) the Purchaser’s or KNE’s being bound by, or subject to, any non-compete or other restriction on the operation or scope of its businesses, or (v) the Purchaser’s or KNE’s being obligated to pay any royalties or other amounts to any third party in excess of those payable by the Seller Parties or KNE, prior to the Closing. Following the Closing, the Purchaser or, as the case may be, KNE, will be permitted to exercise all of the rights of the Seller Parties under the Intellectual Property Contracts to the same extent the Seller Parties or KNE would have been able had the transactions contemplated by this Agreement not occurred and without the payment of any additional amounts or consideration other than ongoing fees, royalties or payments that the Seller Parties or KNE would otherwise be required to pay.

(i) Except as set forth in Schedule 3.6(c)(i) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, the Seller Parties are the sole and exclusive owner of, or otherwise have a right to use, all Intellectual Property Rights, free and clear of any Liens other than Permitted Liens. None of the Permitted Liens will interfere with the Seller Parties’ ability to perform each of their obligations under this Agreement including, without limitation, the transfer of Intellectual Property Rights.

(ii) Except as set forth on Schedule 3.6(c)(ii) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, no Person who has licensed Proprietary Rights to or from the Seller Parties or KNE have ownership rights or license rights to improvements made by Company or KNE in such Proprietary Rights.

(iii) The Acquired Assets, including but not limited to the Intellectual Property Rights, constitute all Proprietary Rights used in or necessary for the conduct of the Business, including the design, manufacture, license and sale of the Acquired Technology, whether currently under development or in production. For clarity, this Section 3.6(c)(iii) shall not be applicable with respect to any allegation by a Third Party that the conduct of the Business by the Purchaser infringes, misuses, misappropriates, breaches or otherwise violates any Proprietary Rights of such Third Party, in which event Section 3.6(d) shall be applicable.

(d) Disputes. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.6(d) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, as of the date of this Agreement, (i) none of the Intellectual Property Rights or the Intellectual Property Contracts is the subject of any pending or threatened litigation, (ii) no third party has provided the Seller Parties or KNE with written notice that it claims any ownership of or right to use any Intellectual Property Rights, and (iii) to the Knowledge of the Seller Parties, no third party is infringing, misusing, misappropriating, breaching or otherwise violating any Intellectual Property Right, Intellectual Property Contract or the Acquired Technology. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.6(d) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, to the Knowledge of the Seller Parties, as of the date of this Agreement, the conduct of the Business, including the production, servicing, design, development, use, import, branding, advertising, promotion, marketing, manufacture and sale of the Acquired Technology (including Acquired Technology currently under development), does not and will not when conducted by the Purchaser and KNE in substantially the same manner following the Closing, infringe, misuse, misappropriate, breach or otherwise violate any Proprietary Rights of any Person (including any right to privacy or publicity) or constitute unfair competition or trade practices under the laws of any jurisdiction. No proceedings have been instituted against, or written notices received by the Seller Parties or KNE, from any Person alleging that such operation or any act or Acquired Technology (including Acquired Technology currently under development) infringes, misuses, misappropriates, breaches or otherwise violates any Proprietary Rights of any Person or constitutes unfair competition or trade practices under the laws of any jurisdiction (nor do the Seller Parties have any Knowledge of any basis therefor) or that any of the Intellectual Property Rights are invalid. Without limiting the foregoing, no interference, cancellation, opposition, reexamination, or other legal action initiated by a third party is or has been pending against the Seller Parties or KNE challenging scope, validity or ownership, anywhere in the world. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.6(d) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, neither the Seller Parties nor KNE have obtained or received any written opinion of counsel regarding any Proprietary Right of a third party. The Intellectual Property Rights and Acquired Technology are not subject to any outstanding judgment, decree, order, writ, award, injunction or determination of an arbitrator or court or other Governmental Entity (other than office actions and correspondence regarding pending patent applications and trademark applications) restricting the rights of the Seller Parties with respect thereto. The Seller Parties and KNE are not engaging in and have not engaged at any time in any patent or copyright misuse or any fraud or inequitable conduct, including with respect to their respective patent applications, trademark applications or copyright registration applications. Without limiting the foregoing, to the Knowledge of the Seller Parties, there is no information, materials, facts, or circumstances, including any information or fact that would constitute prior art, that would render any of the Intellectual Property Rights invalid or unenforceable, or would adversely affect any pending application for Proprietary Rights, and the Seller Parties and KNE have not misrepresented, or failed to disclose, and have no Knowledge of any misrepresentation or failure to disclose, any fact or circumstances in any application for Intellectual Property Rights that would constitute fraud or a misrepresentation with respect to such application or that would otherwise affect the validity or enforceability of Intellectual Property Rights.

(e) Employees. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.6(e) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, all Intellectual Property Rights owned by the Seller Parties or KNE were developed by current or former employees, consultants, independent contractors or agents of the Seller Parties or KNE and (if not owned as a matter of law) have been assigned to the Seller

Parties or KNE and are free of any claims of such employees, consultants, independent contractors or agents thereto. Each current or former employees, consultants, independent contractors or agents of the Seller Parties or KNE engaged in any activity involving the design, development or other similar inventive activities on behalf of the Business have executed a valid and binding written agreement with the applicable Seller Party or KNE sufficient to vest title in such Seller Party or KNE of all Acquired Technology and Intellectual Property Rights created by such employee, consultant, independent contractor or agent in the scope of his or her services or employment for such Seller Party or KNE and requiring such employee, consultant, independent contractor or agent to maintain the confidentiality of all such Seller Party’s confidential information as defined therein. All such agreements are assignable by the Seller Parties without further approvals from any other party and shall be assigned to the Purchaser as of the Effective Time. To the Seller Parties’ Knowledge, no current or former employee, consultant, independent contractor or agent of the Seller Parties or KNE (i) is in violation of any term or covenant of any agreement relating to employment, invention disclosure, invention assignment, nondisclosure or noncompetition or any other agreement with any third party by virtue of such employee, consultant or independent contractor being employed by, or performing services for, the Seller Parties or KNE or using trade secrets or proprietary information of others without permission, (ii) has developed any Acquired Technology or other copyrightable, patentable or otherwise proprietary work for the Seller Parties or KNE that is subject to any agreement under which such employee, consultant or independent contractor has assigned or otherwise granted, or is obligated to assign or otherwise grant, to any third party any rights (including Intellectual Property Rights) in or to such Acquired Technology or other copyrightable, patentable or otherwise proprietary work, or (iii) has developed any technology, software or other copyrightable, patentable or otherwise proprietary work for the Seller Parties or KNE that is subject to any agreement under which such employee, consultant, independent contractor or agent has assigned or otherwise granted, or is obligated to assign or otherwise grant, to any third party any rights in or to such technology, software or other copyrightable, patentable or otherwise proprietary work. The Seller Parties have no Knowledge that any of its or KNE’s current or former employees, consultants, independent contractors or agents are obligated under any agreement, or subject to any judgment, decree or order of any Governmental Entity, that would interfere with the use of their efforts to promote the interests of the Seller Parties and KNE or that would conflict with the Business.

(f) Confidentiality. The Seller Parties and KNE have taken reasonable steps to protect and preserve the confidentiality of all confidential or non-public information, including trade secrets, included in the Intellectual Property Rights. To the Knowledge of the Seller Parties, all use, disclosure or appropriation of such information by or to a third party has been pursuant to the terms of a written agreement between the Seller Parties or KNE and such third party. To the Knowledge of the Seller Parties, all use, disclosure or appropriation of such information by or to the Seller Parties or KNE have been pursuant to the terms of a written agreement or other legal binding arrangement between the Seller Parties or KNE and the owner of such information, or is otherwise lawful. Without limiting the foregoing, to the Knowledge of the Seller Parties, (i) there has been no misappropriation of any trade secrets or other confidential Intellectual Property Rights or Acquired Technology used in connection with the business of the Seller Parties or KNE by any Person and (ii) no employee, consultant, independent contractor or agent of the Seller Parties or KNE has misappropriated any trade secrets of any other Person in the course of performance as an employee, independent contractor or agent of the business.

(g) Transferability. After the Effective Time, all Intellectual Property Rights will be fully transferable, alienable or licensable by the Purchaser or KNE without restriction and without payment of any kind to any third party. The Seller Parties and KNE have not transferred any portion of ownership of, granted any exclusive license of or right to use, or authorized the retention of any exclusive rights to use or joint ownership of, any of the Intellectual Property Rights to any third party or knowingly permitted any of the Intellectual Property Rights to enter the public domain or, with respect to any of the Intellectual Property Rights for which the Seller Parties or KNE have submitted an application or obtained a registration, to lapse (other than (i) through the expiration of a Registered Intellectual Property Right at the end of its maximum statutory term or (ii) applications abandoned and listed in Schedule 3.6(g) of the Company Disclosure Schedule ).

(h) Enforcement. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.6(h) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, the Seller Parties have the right to bring actions for infringement or misappropriation of all Intellectual Property Rights.

(i) Indemnity Obligations. Schedule 3.6(i) of the Company Disclosure Schedule lists all material Intellectual Property Contracts, between the Seller Parties or KNE and any other person wherein or whereby the Seller Parties or KNE have agreed to, or assumed, any obligation or duty to warrant, indemnify, reimburse, hold harmless, guaranty or otherwise assume or incur any obligation or liability or provide a right of rescission with respect to the infringement or misappropriation by the Seller Parties or KNE or such other Person of the Proprietary Rights of any Person other than the Seller Parties.

(j) Government Funding. No (i) government funding, including funding pursuant to a government grant; (ii) facilities or personnel of a university, college, other educational or medical institution or research center; or (iii) funding from any Person (other than the Seller Parties) was used in the development of the Intellectual Property Rights. No current or former employee, consultant, independent contractor, or agent of the Seller Parties, who was involved in, or who contributed to, the creation or development of any Intellectual Property Rights, was employed by or has performed services for any government, university, college or other educational or medical institution or research center during a period of time during which such employee, consultant, independent contractor, or agent was also performing services for the Seller Parties.

(k) Export. To the Knowledge of the Seller Parties, (i) the Seller Parties and KNE have obtained all approvals of Governmental Entities necessary for exporting the Acquired Technology outside the United States (with respect to the Seller Parties) or Germany (with respect to KNE) in accordance with all applicable United States or German export control, embargo and other regulations, and importing the Acquired Technology into any country in which the Acquired Technology is now sold or licensed for use, and (ii) all such export and import approvals in the United States and throughout the world are valid, current, outstanding and in full force and effect.

(l) Payments. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.6(l) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, there are no royalties, fees, honoraria or other payments payable by the Seller Parties or KNE to any Person by reason of the ownership, development, use, license, sale

or disposition of Intellectual Property Rights or Acquired Technology, other than salaries and sales commissions paid to employees and sales agents in the ordinary course of business.

(m) Small Business Status. The Seller Parties have not claimed a particular status, including “Small Business Status,” in the application for any Intellectual Property Rights, which claim of status was at the time made, or which has since become, inaccurate or false.

(n) Defects The Acquired Technology does not (a) contain any defect or error in design that would materially and adversely affect the use or performance of the Acquired Technology; (b) with respect to the Inventory included in the Acquired Assets, contain any material defect in design that would materially and adversely affect the use or performance of the Acquired Technology; or (c) to the Knowledge of the Seller Parties, fail to comply with any applicable warranty or other contractual commitment relating to the use, functionality or performance of such Acquired Technology.

(o) Harmful Code. To the Knowledge of the Seller Parties, any Software or firmware incorporated in or provided with the Acquired Technology, and any media used to distribute it, contain at delivery no computer instructions, circuitry or other technological means whose purpose or effect is to disrupt, damage or negatively interfere with any use of any customer’s computer and communications facilities or equipment (“Harmful Code”), and the Seller Parties have used commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the introduction of such Harmful Code to all Software, firmware and media distributed, licensed or sold by the Seller Parties or KNE. “Harmful Code” includes (a) any instrumentality that could cause the Software or firmware to fail to be operative upon command of or by design by the Seller Parties, and (b) any code containing viruses, trojan horses, worms, or like destructive code or code that self-replicates. None of the Software incorporated in the Acquired Technology is, in whole or in part, subject to the provisions of any open source or quasi-open source license agreement, or any other agreement obligating the Seller Parties or KNE to make source code available to third parties or to publish source code. The Seller Parties and KNE have not entered into any agreement requiring the Seller Parties or KNE to place the source code or other technology incorporated in the other Acquired Technology in escrow so that a licensee might obtain access to it upon the occurrence of any release condition.

(p) Publicly Available Software. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.6(p) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, no Acquired Technology (including any Acquired Technology currently under development) contains any Publicly Available Software. All Publicly Available Software used by the Seller Parties and KNE has been used in its entirety and without modification. The Seller Parties have not incorporated or otherwise used Publicly Available Software in a manner that would require, or condition the use or distribution of any Acquired Technology on the disclosure, licensing or distribution of any source code for any portion of such Acquired Technology. “Publicly Available Software” means: (A) any Software that contains, or is derived in any manner in whole or in part from, any Software that is distributed as free Software, open source Software (e.g. Linux) or under similar licensing or distribution models; or (B) any Software that may require as a condition of use, modification or distribution that such Software or other Software incorporated into, derived from or distributed with such Software: (i) be disclosed or distributed in source code form; (ii) be licensed for the purpose of making derivative works; or (iii) be redistributable at no charge.

No event has occurred, and no circumstance or condition exists, that (with or without notice or lapse of time) will, or could reasonably be expected to, result in the delivery, license, or disclosure of any source code for any Acquired Technology to any other person who is not, as of the date of this agreement, an employee of the Seller Parties or KNE.

The Purchaser shall use its reasonable best efforts to satisfy or cause to be satisfied all the conditions precedent that are set forth in Section 7.1 (Conditions Precedent to Obligations of the Seller Parties), and shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Company, those documents set forth in Section 2.1(b).

5.4 No Solicitation.

(a) From the date hereof until the earlier of the Closing or the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1 (Termination) hereof, the Seller Parties will not, and will not permit or cause any of their officers, directors, employees, investment bankers, consultants and other agents or representatives to, directly or indirectly, take any action to solicit, initiate, encourage, respond to or facilitate the making of any Acquisition Proposal (as defined below) or any inquiry with respect thereto or engage in discussions or negotiations with or furnish any information to any Person (other than the Purchaser, the Purchaser’s Affiliates and counsel or other representatives of any of the foregoing) with respect thereto, or otherwise assist or participate in or facilitate or cooperate with in any other manner any effort or attempt by any Person that has made or, to the Knowledge of the Seller Parties, is contemplating making any Acquisition Proposal.

(c) The Seller Parties shall immediately cease and cause their representatives to cease any existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any Person conducted heretofore with respect to any actual or potential Acquisition Proposal.

(d) If any Seller Party receives after the date of this Agreement and prior to the earlier of the Closing Date or the termination of this Agreement, any offer or proposal relating to an Acquisition Proposal, the Company shall promptly notify the Purchaser that such an offer or proposal was made, and unless such offer or proposal is the subject of any confidentiality or non-disclosure obligations existing on or prior to the date hereof, notify the Purchaser as to the identity of the offeror or the Person making any such offer or proposal or the specific material terms of such offer or proposal, as the case may be.

5.5 Notification. The Company shall notify the Purchaser in writing of the existence or happening of any fact, event or occurrence that is discovered, arises or comes into existence after the date hereof, which should be included in the Company Disclosure Schedule in order to make the representations and warranties set forth in Article III true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date (each such additional written disclosure, a “Company Disclosure Schedule Supplement”), it being understood and agreed that the delivery of such information shall not be deemed to amend or otherwise modify the Company Disclosure Schedule delivered on the date hereof or the representations and warranties contained herein or otherwise have any effect on the satisfaction of the conditions to Purchaser’s obligations to close hereunder; provided, however, that in determining after the Closing Date whether there is a breach of any representation or warranty contained in Article III for the purposes of the

indemnification to be provided by the Seller Parties pursuant to Article IX, such representation or warranty shall be qualified by any information provided pursuant to this Section 5.5.

ARTICLE VI

CERTAIN COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS

6.1 Confidentiality.

(a) From the Closing Date, the Seller Parties shall maintain, and shall cause their Affiliates (collectively, the “Confidentiality Parties”) to maintain, the confidentiality of all proprietary information relating to the Business, including information relating to the technical, manufacturing or marketing information, ideas, methods, developments, inventions, improvements, business plans, trade secrets, scientific or statistical data, diagrams, drawings, specifications or other proprietary information relating thereto, together with all analyses, compilations, studies or other documents, records or data prepared by the Seller Parties or the Purchaser or their respective Representatives which contain or otherwise reflect or are generated from such information (“Confidential Information”), except to the extent that such information (i) is in the public domain other than as a result of a breach of this Agreement by the Confidentiality Parties, or (ii) is required by Law to be disclosed; provided, that the Seller Parties comply with the provisions set forth in Section 6.1(c) hereof or (iii) being disclosed by or on behalf of the Seller Parties in connection with any Action pursuant to which the Seller Parties seek to enforce their rights or remedies under this Agreement or any of the other documents, agreements, Contracts or certificates executed or delivered in accordance with the term hereof or otherwise contemplated hereby.

(b) The obligations of the Seller Parties pursuant to this Section 6.1 shall remain in effect for a period of five (5) years from the Closing.

(c) If any of the Seller Parties or any Affiliate thereof is requested or required (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents in legal proceedings, subpoena, civil investigative demand or other similar process, but excluding any Action to enforce the rights of the Seller Parties under this Agreement or any of the other documents, agreements, Contracts or certificates executed or delivered in accordance with the term hereof or otherwise contemplated hereby) or is required by operation of law to disclose any Confidential

Information, the Company shall provide the Purchaser with prompt written notice of such request or requirement, which notice shall, if practicable, be at least seventy-two (72) hours prior to making such disclosure, so that the Purchaser may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. If, in the absence of a protective order or other remedy or the receipt of such a waiver, any Seller Party determines, upon the advice of counsel, that such Seller Party is legally compelled to disclose Confidential Information, then such Seller Party may disclose that portion of the Confidential Information which such counsel advises is legally required to be disclosed, provided, that such Seller Party uses its reasonable efforts to preserve the confidentiality of the Confidential Information, whereupon such disclosure shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement.

(d) In the event of a breach of any provision of this Section 6.1, the Purchaser may, in addition to other rights and remedies existing in its favor, apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for specific performance and injunctive relief in order to enforce or prevent any violation of such provisions.

6.2 No Public Announcement. Each of the parties hereto shall consult with the other parties before issuing any press releases or otherwise making any public statements with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, and each of the parties shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement without the express written consent of the other parties, unless the release of such information is required by applicable Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the Purchaser and the Company shall be entitled to make a public announcement regarding the transactions contemplated hereby if such party deems it reasonably necessary or appropriate to fulfill its obligations as a public company; provided, however, that with respect to such party’s first public announcement of this Agreement and/or the transactions contemplated hereby, such party shall provide the other of such parties with a copy of such announcement at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to the announcement being publicized and shall in good faith consider any proposed changes thereto reasonably requested by the other of such parties.

6.3 Further Assurances. Each party hereto agrees to cooperate fully with the other parties and to execute such further instruments, documents and agreements and to give such further written assurances, as may be reasonably requested by any other party to better evidence and reflect the transactions described herein and contemplated hereby and to carry into effect the intents and purposes of this Agreement. The Seller Parties shall take all actions reasonably necessary or required to be taken for the procurement, maintenance, enforcement and defense of the Patent Rights.

6.4 The Purchaser’s Financial Statements. From and after the date hereof, upon the Purchaser’s request and at the Purchaser’s expense, the Seller Parties shall cooperate with the Purchaser and such independent auditor as the Purchaser shall designate with respect to the preparation of such financial statements relating to the Business as the Purchaser shall be required to file under Regulation S-X under U.S. federal securities Laws.

6.5 Use of Names. Following the Closing, the Seller Parties and their Affiliates will not use the name “ThromCat”, “QuickCat”, “Safe-Cross” or any variations thereof, or any trademark, trade name or name or brand name relating thereto, or any variation or

combination thereof; provided, however, that the Seller Parties and their Affiliates may indicate that they developed such products so long as in connection with any such indication, they disclose Purchaser, or such other party as Purchaser may designate, as the owner of any Trademark Rights included therein.

6.6 Tax Matters.

(a) To the extent the Purchaser and the Seller Parties reasonably agree the same are required, the Seller Parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to procure and provide the Purchaser with such clearance certificates or other documents as the Purchaser reasonably determines are required by any state taxing authority to relieve the Purchaser of any obligation to withhold any portion of the payments to the Seller Parties pursuant to this Agreement.

(b) In the case of Taxes of KNE that are payable with respect to a Straddle Period, the portion of any such Tax that is allocable to Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be (A) in the case of Taxes that are (x) based upon or related to income or receipts of KNE or (y) employment, social security or other similar Taxes of KNE, deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the taxable year ended on the date immediately prior to the Closing Date; and (B) in the case of Taxes imposed on a periodic basis with respect to any assets or otherwise measured by the level of any item (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all Property Taxes imposed with respect to the Assets) deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire period (or, in the case of such Taxes determined on an arrears basis, the amount of such Taxes for the immediately preceding period) multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the period ending on the date immediately prior to the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire period. To the extent permitted by or required under Applicable Law, the Seller Parties and the Purchaser shall elect to treat the Tax year of KNE as ending on the date immediately prior to the Closing Date.

(c) The Seller Parties shall be responsible for and shall promptly pay when due all Property Taxes levied with respect to the Acquired Assets attributable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period, and the Purchaser shall be responsible for and shall promptly pay when due all Property Taxes levied with respect to the Assets attributable to the Post-Closing Tax Period. All Property Taxes levied with respect to the Acquired Assets for the Straddle Period shall be apportioned between the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the Post-Closing Tax Period, as follows: the portion allocable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Tax period ending on the day before the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Straddle Period. Upon receipt of any bill for such Property Taxes relating to the Acquired Assets, the Purchaser, on one hand, and the Seller Parties, on the other hand, shall present a statement to the other setting forth the amount of reimbursement to which each is entitled under this Section 6.6(c) together with such supporting evidence as is reasonably necessary to calculate the proration amount. The proration amount shall be paid by the party owing it to the other within ten (10) days after delivery of such statement. In the event that the Purchaser or the Seller Parties shall make (or has made) any payment for which it is entitled to reimbursement under this Section 6.6(c), the applicable party shall make such reimbursement promptly but in no event later than ten (10) days after the

presentation of a statement setting forth the amount of reimbursement to which the presenting party is entitled along with such supporting evidence as is reasonably necessary to calculate the amount of reimbursement.

(d) Purchaser shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be timely filed all Tax Returns for KNE that are due on or after the Closing Date that include any Pre-Closing Tax Period (together, the “Purchaser’s Returns”). Each Purchaser’s Return shall be prepared in accordance with the past practice of KNE in preparing its Tax Returns, provided such past practice is consistent with applicable Law, and the applicable Law and Purchaser shall provide the Seller Parties with a draft copy of each such Purchaser’s Return (and, in the case of any Purchaser’s Return that includes a Straddle Period, a statement setting forth the allocation of Taxes reflected on such Purchaser’s Return to the Pre-Closing Period in accordance with the principles set forth in Section 6.6(b) (an “Allocation Statement”)) for review no later than thirty (30) days before the due date of such Purchaser’s Return (taking into account any properly obtained extensions). If the Purchaser and the Seller Parties fail to resolve any dispute with respect to any Purchaser’s Return or related Allocation Statement provided by Purchaser to the Seller Parties within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such Purchaser’s Return and related Allocation Statement by the Seller Parties, then any such disputed matter shall be submitted to and resolved by a mutually agreed nationally recognized in Germany independent accounting firm (the “Independent Accounting Firm”). The Independent Accounting Firm shall be directed to render a written report on the unresolved disputed issues as promptly as practicable, but in no event greater than ten (10) days after such submission to the Independent Accounting Firm, and limit its review to the unresolved issues. The resolution of any dispute by the Independent Accounting Firm shall be final and binding on the Purchaser and the Seller Parties. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be allocated between the Purchaser and the Seller in the proportion that the amounts determined by the Independent Accounting Firm against each party bear to the total amount in dispute (determined with respect to dollar amount).

(e) Purchaser shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, (i) make any election under Section 338(g) of the Code with respect to the acquisition of the KNE Interests contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) make any election under Treasury Regulation ###-###-####-3 with respect to KNE effective on or before the Closing Date, or (iii) without the prior written consent of the Sellers Parties, which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld (except in the event such action could result in a claim for indemnification by the Purchaser against the Seller Parties, then without the prior written consent of the Seller Parties): (y) file, re-file, or amend any Tax Return for KNE that was due before the Closing Date or (z) amend any Purchaser’s Return prepared and filed pursuant to Section 6.6(d).

(f) Purchaser and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Seller Parties, on the other hand, shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to Section 6.6(d) and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes relating to the Acquired Assets. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Seller Parties and Purchaser agree to

(A) to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Acquired Assets relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by Purchaser or the Seller Parties, any extensions thereof) of the respective taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Tax authority, and (B) to give the other party reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if the other party so requests, the Purchaser and its Affiliates or the Seller Parties, as the case may be, shall allow the other party to take possession of such books and records.

(g) Each Seller Party shall deliver to the Purchaser at Closing a certificate of non-foreign status (in such form as reasonably requested by Purchaser) conforming to the requirements of Section 1.1445-2(b)(2) of the United States Treasury Regulations. Purchaser and the Seller Parties further agree, upon request, to use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any governmental authority or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including, but not limited to, with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby).

(h) All tax-sharing agreements or similar agreements with respect to or involving KNE, on one hand, and the Seller Parties and their Affiliates (other than KNE), on the other hand, shall be terminated as of the Closing and, after the Closing, KNE shall not be bound thereby or have any liability or claim for benefit thereunder.

(i) Purchaser shall pay the Seller Parties any Tax refunds received by the Purchaser or its Affiliates with respect to Taxes of the KNE for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods within fifteen (15) business days of receipt of any such Tax refund. Any such payments shall be treated as an adjustment to the Final Base Purchase Price.

(j) The Purchaser shall promptly notify the Seller Parties, in writing upon receipt of notice of any pending or threatened federal, state, local or foreign Tax audits or assessments relating to the income, properties or operations of the Seller Parties that reasonably may be expected to result in a claim for indemnification under this Agreement (each, a “Tax Claim”). Purchaser’s failure to notify the Seller Parties of a Tax Claim will not relieve any of the Seller Parties of any liability that they may have, except to the extent the defense of such Tax Claim is prejudiced by Purchaser’s failure to give such notice. Such notice shall include a copy of the relevant portion of any correspondence received from the relevant Tax authority. The Seller Parties may elect within ten (10) days of receiving notice of a Tax Claim to represent the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates in any such Tax Claim, and to employ counsel of their choice at their expense, provided that the Seller Parties may not agree to settle any Tax Claim without Purchaser consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed. If Purchaser unreasonably refuses to give its consent to any proposed settlement, then the Seller Parties liability under this Agreement with respect to such Tax Claim shall be limited to the aggregate amount of the proposed settlement. If the Seller Parties choose to direct a Tax Claim, Purchaser shall (i) cause powers of attorney authorizing the Seller Parties to represent the Purchaser or its Affiliates, as the case may be, before the relevant Tax authority and such other documents as are reasonably necessary for the Seller Parties to control the conduct of any such Tax Claim and (ii) have the right to participate in the Tax Claim at its own expense (which expense shall not be deemed a Loss for purposes of this Agreement). In the event of any conflict

between the provisions of this Section 6.6(j) and Section 9.4, this Section 6.6(j) shall govern. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any issue raised in a Tax Claim could have an impact on the Taxes of the Purchaser, KNE, the Business or the Acquired Assets for any Post-Closing Tax Period, then the Purchaser shall have the opportunity to jointly control the conduct and resolution of the portion of such Tax Claim which could have an impact on such Taxes for any Post-Closing Tax Period.

6.7 Sales and Marketing Efforts. The Purchaser agrees and acknowledges that it will use commercially reasonable efforts to market and sell the Acquired Technology.

6.8 Employees of KNE. Immediately prior to the Closing, the Seller Parties shall cause KNE to give, without undue delay, notice of termination to up to five (5) employees and/or two (2) managing directors of KNE as may be indicated by the Purchaser to the Seller Parties in writing no later than five Business Days prior to the Closing Date (the employees and/or managing directors so indicated herein referred to as the “KNE Lay-Off Employees” and any other current or former employees and/or managing directors which are not KNE Lay-Off Employees hereinafter referred to as the “KNE Other Employees”). In addition, the Seller Parties shall cause KNE to give, without undue delay, notice of termination under any contracts to which KNE is party in respect of the employment of the KNE Lay-Off Employees, including without limitation contracts relating to car leases and cell phones (“KNE Lay-Off Employee Ancillary Contracts”).

6.9 Processing Agreement. The Company and the Purchaser agree to use their commercially reasonable efforts to amend the Processing Agreement following the Closing and prior to the expiration of the QuickCat Manufacturing Period (as defined in the Manufacturing and Licensing Agreement) in order to meet the specifications of each of the Company and the Purchaser for the services to be provided under the Processing Agreement following the expiration of the QuickCat Manufacturing Period.

6.10 Pending Applications. The Company shall complete the application procedures for any applications or Permits pending as of the date hereof related to the Acquired Technology.

ARTICLE IX

INDEMNIFICATION

9.1 Survival of Representations, Etc. All of the representations and warranties made by each party in this Agreement or in any attachment, exhibit, schedule, certificate, document or list delivered by any such party pursuant hereto shall survive the Closing for a period equal to eighteen (18) months, except that claims based upon or arising out of representations and warranties contained in Sections 3.1 (Organization), 3.2(a) (Authority), 3.3 (Tax Matters), 3.5 (Title to Property and Assets), 3.6(c)(iii) (Sufficiency of Intellectual Property Rights) and 3.10 (Health Care Compliance) hereof shall survive the Closing for the relevant statute of limitations, including any extensions thereof. No investigation made by any of the parties hereto shall in any way limit the representations and warranties of the parties. Each party hereto shall be entitled to rely upon the representations and warranties of the other parties set forth in this Agreement. The termination of the representations and warranties provided herein shall not affect the rights of a party in respect of any claim made by such party in a writing received by the other party prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period provided herein. All covenants, agreements and other obligations of the Seller Parties and the Purchaser set forth in this Agreement that are to be performed following the Closing Date shall survive the Closing and continue in full force and effect until such covenants, agreements and other obligations are performed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

9.2 Indemnification by the Seller Parties. Except as otherwise limited by this Article IX, the Seller Parties, jointly and severally, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser and its Affiliates, parents, subsidiaries, officers, directors, employees, agents, independent contractor salespersons, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnified Parties”) from any and all liabilities, losses, damages, claims, costs and expenses, interest, awards, judgments and penalties (whether or not arising out of third-party claims) (including, without limitation, costs of mitigation, losses in connection with any Environmental Law, lost profits and other losses resulting from any shutdown or curtailment of operations, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and any and all amounts paid in investigation, defense or settlement of any or all of the foregoing) (“Losses”), arising out of or resulting from (i) any or all misrepresentations or breaches of warranty by the Seller Parties contained herein or in any document delivered hereunder; (ii) the breach of any or all covenants or agreements by the Seller Parties contained herein or in any document delivered hereunder; (iii) any Losses of the Purchaser arising out of or resulting from the failure of the Seller Parties to comply with any applicable bulk sales laws in the United States; (iv) any Retained Liabilities; (v) except to the extent constituting an Assumed Liability, or otherwise indemnifiable under Section 9.3, all Liabilities arising out of the ownership or operation of KNE, the Acquired Assets or the Business prior to the Closing Date; (vi) (A) relating to time periods prior to, on or after the Closing Date, resulting from or in connection with (x) the employment relationships of the KNE Lay-Off Employees and the termination of such employment relationships (including, without limitation, salary payments, bonus payments severance payments, social security charges, vacation entitlements, payments as a result of post-contractual non compete provisions, costs of any court proceedings) and (y) the KNE Lay-Off Employee Ancillary Contracts and the termination of such contracts (including, without limitation any payment obligations and other obligations towards the respective other parties to such contracts prior to their effective termination), and (B)

relating to the time period prior to or on the Closing Date and resulting from or in connection with the employment relationships of the KNE Other Employees (including, without limitation, any payment obligations as a result of unpaid overtime); (vii) if the German Contract Condition is not satisfied prior to the Closing, any Liability of KNE arising as a result of the termination by KNE of the German Contract so long as such termination is made upon at least sixty (60) days prior written notice and is effective no later than February 1, 2010; and (viii) any Taxes of KNE with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period and the unpaid Taxes of any Person (other than KNE) under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-6 (or any similar Laws), as a transferee or successor, by contract, or otherwise. For purposes of Section 9.2(viii), the Taxes of KNE for any Straddle Period shall be allocated as provided in Section 6.6(b). It is clarified, for the avoidance of doubt, that the Seller Parties’ indemnification obligation pursuant to (vi)(A) shall also apply in the event that a termination of the KNE Lay-Off Employees and/or the KNE Lay-Off Employee Ancillary Contracts is not legally possible, or is not effected by KNE in accordance with Section 6.8, or is effected by KNE only after the Closing Date and that such obligation shall include, without limitation, indemnification of the Purchaser and KNE for any payments required under the respective employment contract or KNE Lay-Off Employee Ancillary Contract through the effective termination of such contract. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any Seller Party have any indemnification obligation pursuant to this Section 9.2 with respect to any Losses (or portion thereof) for which a liability or accrual has been reflected in the KNE Closing Balance Sheet for such Losses and taken into account in the Base Purchase Price Determination Certificate as a deduction in the calculation of the Final Purchase Price.

9.3 Indemnification by the Purchaser. Except as otherwise limited by this Article IX, the Seller Parties and their respective Affiliates, agents, parents, subsidiaries, officers, directors, employees, agents, independent contractor salespersons, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Purchaser for any and all Losses arising out of or resulting from (i) any and all misrepresentations or breach of warranty by the Purchaser contained herein or in any document delivered hereunder, (ii) the breach of any covenant or agreement by the Purchaser contained herein or in any document delivered hereunder to which the Purchaser is a party, (iii) all Assumed Liabilities; (iv) all Liabilities arising out of the ownership or operation of KNE, the Acquired Assets or the Business on or after the Closing Date, except to the extent such liabilities constitute a Retained Liability or are otherwise indemnifiable under Section 9.2; and (v) all Taxes arising out of the transfer, ownership or operation of the Acquired Assets following the Closing Date, except to the extent such Taxes constitute Transfer Taxes or are otherwise addressed in Section 14.2 of the Manufacturing Agreement.

9.4 General Indemnification Provisions.

(a) For the purposes of this Section, the term “Indemnitee” shall refer to the Person or Persons indemnified, or entitled, or claiming to be entitled, to be indemnified, pursuant to the provisions of this Article IX as the case may be; and the term “Indemnitor” shall refer to the Person having the obligation to indemnify pursuant to this Article IX. The term “Losses” is not limited to matters asserted by third parties, but includes Losses incurred or sustained by an Indemnitee in the absence of third party claims, and payments by the Indemnitee shall not be a condition precedent to recovery.

(b) An Indemnitee shall give the Indemnitor prompt written notice of any matter which an Indemnitee has determined has given or could give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement as soon as practicable after the Indemnitee becomes aware of such matter, stating the amount of Losses, if known, and the method of computation thereof, all with reasonable particularity and containing a reference to the provisions of this Agreement in respect of which such right of indemnification is claimed or arises. The obligations and liabilities of an Indemnitor under this Article IX with respect to Losses arising from claims of any third party that are subject to the indemnification provided for in this Article IX (“Third Party Claims”) shall be governed by the following additional terms and conditions: if an Indemnitee shall receive notice of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnitee shall give the Indemnitor prompt written notice of such Third Party Claim as promptly as practicable (and in any event within fifteen (15) calendar days after the service of the citation or summons) and shall permit the Indemnitor, at its option, to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim by counsel of its own choice and at its expense; provided that such counsel is reasonably acceptable to Indemnitee; provided further that the failure to provide such notice shall not relieve the Indemnitor form any of its obligations under this Article IX except to the extent the Indemnitor is materially prejudiced by such failure. The Indemnitor shall also be entitled, at its option, to assume and control the defense of such Third Party Claim at its cost, risk and expense and through counsel of its choice if it gives notice, within fifteen (15) calendar days after receiving written notice of such claim from the Indemnitee, of the Indemnitor’s intention to do so to the Indemnitee, unless the named parties to such action or proceeding include both the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee and the Indemnitee has been advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to such Indemnitee that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnitor. If the Indemnitor exercises its right to undertake the defense against any such Third Party Claim as provided above, the Indemnitee shall cooperate with the Indemnitor in such defense and make available to the Indemnitor, at the Indemnitor’s expense, all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in its possession or under its control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnitor. Similarly, in the event the Indemnitee is, directly or indirectly, conducting the defense against any such Third Party Claim, the Indemnitor shall cooperate with the Indemnitee in such defense and make available to it all such witnesses, records, materials and information in its possession or under its control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnitee. No such Third Party Claim, except the settlement thereof which involves the payment of money only and for which the Indemnitee is fully indemnified by the Indemnitor, may be settled by the Indemnitor without the written consent of the Indemnitee. If the Indemnitor fails to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim within fifteen (15) calendar days after receipt of the notice thereof, the Indemnitee against which such claim has been asserted will (upon delivering notice to such effect to the Indemnitor) have the right to undertake, at the Indemnitor’s cost and expense, the defense, compromise or settlement of such claim on behalf of and for the account and risk of the Indemnitor and the Indemnitor will be bound by any determination made in such claim or compromise or settlement effected by the Indemnitee.

9.5 Limits on Indemnification.

(a) Basket on Losses of Purchaser Indemnified Parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement (but subject to the proviso set forth in this sentence), neither Seller Party shall be liable to any Purchaser Indemnified Party under Section

9.2(i) unless the aggregate Losses incurred by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties with respect to which indemnification is to be provided hereunder exceed Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) (the “Basket Threshold”), in which case the Seller Parties shall be liable to the Purchaser Indemnified Parties for the Losses included in the Basket Threshold; provided, however, that the limitations set forth in this Section 9.5(a) and application of the Basket Threshold shall not apply to (i) any Losses incurred by any Purchaser Indemnified Party arising out of or otherwise by virtue of any inaccuracy of the representations and warranties contained in Sections 3.1 (Organization), 3.2(a) (Authority), 3.3 (Tax Matters), 3.5 (Title to Property and Assets), 3.6(c)(iii) (Sufficiency of Intellectual Property Rights) and 3.10 (Health Care Compliance) of this Agreement or (ii) any Losses arising out of fraud, willful misrepresentation or willful misconduct on the part of the Seller Parties.

(b) Cap on Losses of Purchaser Indemnified Parties. The aggregate amount required to be paid by Seller Parties under Section 9.2(i) shall not exceed Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) (the “Cap”); provided, however, that the Cap shall not apply to (i) any Losses of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties arising out of or otherwise by virtue of any inaccuracy in any of the representations and warranties contained in Sections 3.1 (Organization), 3.2(a) (Authority), 3.3 (Tax Matters), 3.5 (Title to Property and Assets), 3.6(c)(iii) (Sufficiency of Intellectual Property Rights) and 3.10 (Health Care Compliance) of this Agreement and no indemnification payment made by the Seller Parties with respect to any such inaccuracy shall be considered in determining whether the Cap has been satisfied or (ii) any Losses arising out of fraud, willful misrepresentation or willful misconduct on the part of the Seller Parties.

(c) Neither the exercise of nor the failure to exercise any available right of setoff will constitute an election of remedies or limit the Purchaser in any manner in the enforcement of any other remedies that may be available to it. If the Purchaser elects to exercise any such right of setoff, the Purchaser shall first submit a notice of claim to the Seller Parties in accordance with the procedures set forth herein and the Purchaser’s exercise of such right of setoff with respect to such claim shall be subject to the dispute resolution provisions set forth herein.

(d) If any Losses sustained by an Indemnitee are covered by an insurance policy or an indemnification, contribution or similar obligation of another Person (other than an Affiliate of such Indemnitee), the Indemnitee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect such insurance proceeds or indemnity, contribution or similar payments. If the Indemnitee receives such insurance proceeds or indemnity, contribution or similar payments prior to being indemnified with respect to such Losses under Sections 9.2 or 9.3, the payment with respect to such Losses shall be reduced by the net amount of such insurance proceeds or indemnity, contribution or similar payments to the extent related to such Losses, less reasonable attorney’s fees and other expenses incurred in connection with such recovery. If the Indemnitee receives such insurance proceeds or indemnity, contribution or similar payments after being indemnified and held harmless by an Indemnitor with respect to such Losses, the Indemnitee shall pay to the Indemnitor the net amount of such insurance proceeds or indemnity, contribution or similar payment to the extent related to such Losses, less reasonable attorney’s fees and other expenses incurred in connection with such recovery. If any Indemnitee receives payment under this Article IX on account of a claim that an Indemnitor believes in good faith is covered by an insurance policy or an indemnification, contribution or similar obligation of another Person

(other than an Affiliate of such Indemnitee), then the Indemnitee shall on written request of the Indemnitor (i) assign, to the extent assignable, its rights under such insurance policy or indemnification, contribution or similar obligation with respect to such claim to the Indemnitor and (ii) if requested to do so by the Indemnitor, the Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnitor, to collect any such insurance or indemnification, contribution or similar obligation. In all cases, the foregoing shall be subject to any subrogation rights of Indemnitor’s insurers.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement (except for the last sentence of this Section 9.5(e)), the obligations of the Seller Parties to indemnify the Purchaser pursuant to Sections 9.2(i) and 9.2(ii) shall be the Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy against the Seller Parties, except that this Section 9.5(e) shall not apply in the case of fraud, willful misrepresentation or willful misconduct in connection with any representation, warranty or covenant of the Seller Parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.5(e), the provisions of this Section 9.5(e) shall not apply to any claim by the Purchaser against the Seller Parties based upon a failure of the Seller Parties to transfer any of the Acquired Assets pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(f) Each Indemnitee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any Losses for which such Indemnitee seeks indemnification.

9.6 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. To the extent permitted by Law, indemnification payments made pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute adjustments to the Final Base Purchase Price and to the Post-Closing Payment hereunder, and shall be treated as such by the Purchaser and the Seller Parties on their Tax Returns, in each case unless otherwise agreed in writing.

When a reference is made in this Agreement to articles or sections, such reference shall be, respectively, to an article or a section of this Agreement unless otherwise indicated.

10.4 Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement, the documents and the instruments executed and delivered in connection herewith and the Confidentiality Agreements constitute the entire agreement and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties and between the Purchaser and the Seller Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and are not intended to confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder.

10.5 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware without regard to any applicable conflicts of law rules or principles.

10.6 Consent to Jurisdiction; Venue; Waiver of Certain Damages and Jury Trial.

During such 30-day period, the party seeking to commence such litigation shall attend no fewer than three (3) full business days of meetings at the other party’s principal executive offices. Only after compliance with the provisions of this Section 10.6(a) may a party hereto commence an action in connection with this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents.

(b) Each party hereto hereby submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the District of Delaware and of any Delaware state court sitting in the County of New Castle, State of Delaware for purposes of all legal proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Each party hereto irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum, and the parties hereto irrevocably agree that all such proceedings shall be heard and determined in such a Delaware state or federal court. The parties hereby consent to and grant any such court jurisdiction over the person of such parties and over the subject matter of such dispute and agree that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such action or proceeding in the manner provided in Section 10.1 or in such other manner as may be permitted by law shall be valid and sufficient service thereof.

(c) Each party hereto waives any claim to punitive, exemplary or multiplied damages from the other; provided, however, that this waiver shall not be deemed to prevent any Purchaser Indemnified Party or Seller Indemnified Party from recovering Losses incurred by such Purchaser Indemnified Party or Seller Indemnified Party, as the case may be, as a result of any claim (i) from any third party for any such punitive, exemplary or multiplied damages imposed upon such Purchaser Indemnified Party or Seller Indemnified Party and as to which claim such Purchaser Indemnified Party or Seller Indemnified Party, as the case may be, is

otherwise entitled to indemnification under Section 9.2 in the case of Purchaser Indemnified Parties or Section 9.3 in the case of Seller Indemnified Parties or (ii) for fraud.

THE PARTIES HERETO EACH AGREE THAT ANY AND ALL SUCH CLAIMS AND CAUSES OF ACTION SHALL BE TRIED BY THE COURT WITHOUT A JURY.

10.7 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other parties; except that the Purchaser shall be entitled to assign this Agreement in whole or in part to any of its Affiliates (in which case the Purchaser shall remain liable for all obligations of the Purchaser hereunder, including the performance or nonperformance of any actions or omissions of its Affiliates) upon reasonable advance notice to the Seller Parties.

Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument signed on behalf of such party. Any such waiver by a party of a condition to closing of this Agreement shall also operate as a waiver and release of any corresponding covenant, agreement or other obligation relating to the same subject matter set forth in this Agreement.

10.10 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under any present or future Law or regulation, and if the rights or obligations of any party hereto under this Agreement will not be materially and adversely affected thereby, (i) such provision will be fully severable, (ii) this Agreement will be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part hereof, (iii) the remaining provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect and will not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance from

this Agreement and (iv) in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision, there will be added automatically as a part of this Agreement a legal, valid and enforceable provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement or other agreement between the parties shall affect the validity and enforceability of Section 2.6 and the obligation of the Purchaser to make the Post-Closing Payment thereunder.

Matters reflected in the Company Disclosure Schedule are not necessarily limited to matters required by this Agreement to be disclosed. No disclosure made in the Company Disclosure Schedule shall constitute an admission or determination that any fact or matter so disclosed is material, would have a material adverse effect, meets a dollar or other threshold set forth in this Agreement , and no Person shall use the fact of the setting of an amount or the inclusion of such facts or matters in any dispute or controversy as to whether any obligation, amount, fact or matter is or is not material for purposes of this Agreement. Any reference to a section or subsection in the Company Disclosure Schedule refers to that section or subsection of this Agreement, unless the context requires otherwise.
