Section 3.23 Securities and Investment Matters. Each Seller represents the following:

(a) Seller has such knowledge, skill and experience in business, financial and investment matters that Seller is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the OPT Common Stock. With the assistance of Seller’s own professional advisors, to the extent that Seller has deemed appropriate, Seller has made its own legal, tax, accounting and financial evaluation of the merits and risks of an investment in the OPT Common Stock. Seller has considered the suitability of the OPT Common Stock as an investment in light of its own circumstances and financial condition and Seller is able to bear the risks associated with an investment in the OPT Common Stock.

(b) Seller is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act. Seller agrees to furnish any additional information requested by Buyer or any of its affiliates to assure compliance with applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws in connection with the investment in the OPT Common Stock.

(c) Seller is acquiring the OPT Shares solely for Seller’s own beneficial account, for investment purposes, and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution of the OPT Common Stock. Seller understands that the OPT Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act or any securities, “blue sky” or other similar laws of such jurisdiction by reason of specific exemptions under the provisions thereof which depend in part upon the investment intent of Seller and of the other representations made by Seller in this Agreement. Seller understands that Buyer is relying upon the representations and agreements contained in this Agreement for the purpose of determining whether this transaction meets the requirements for such exemptions.

(d) Seller understands that the OPT Shares are “restricted securities” under applicable federal securities laws and that the Securities Act and the rules of the SEC provide in substance that Seller may dispose of the OPT Shares only pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom, and Seller understands that the Company has no obligation to register any of the OPT Shares, or to take action so as to permit sales pursuant to the Securities Act (including Rule 144 thereunder). Accordingly, Seller understands that under the SEC’s rules, Seller may dispose of the OPT Shares principally only in “private placements” which are exempt from registration under the Securities Act, in which event the transferee will acquire “restricted securities” subject to the same limitations as in the hands of Seller. Accordingly, Seller understands that Seller must bear the economic risks of the investment in the OPT Shares for an indefinite period of time. Seller further understands that its ability to dispose of the OPT Shares will be subject to the restrictions contained in Section 5.04 hereof.

(c) After the Closing Date, no Seller, its Affiliates or the officers, directors or employees of any such Affiliates will disparage the Business, Buyer or any of the members, managers, officers, employees or agents of Buyer or the Company.

(d) Each Seller acknowledges that a breach or threatened breach of this Section 5.03 would give rise to irreparable harm to Buyer, for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy, and hereby agrees that in the event of a breach or a threatened breach by such Seller of any such obligations, Buyer shall, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies that may be available to it in respect of such breach, be entitled to equitable relief, including a temporary restraining order, an injunction, or specific performance (without any requirement to post bond).

(e) Each Seller acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 5.03 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of Buyer and constitute a material inducement to Buyer to enter into this Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In the event that any covenant contained in this Section 5.03 should ever be adjudicated to exceed the time, geographic, product or service, or other limitations permitted by applicable Law in any jurisdiction or any Governmental Order, then any court is expressly empowered to reform such covenant, and such covenant shall be deemed reformed, in such jurisdiction to the maximum time, geographic, product or service, or other limitations permitted by applicable Law or such Governmental Order. The covenants contained in this Section 5.03 and each provision hereof are severable and distinct covenants and provisions. The invalidity or unenforceability of any such covenant or provision as written shall not invalidate or render unenforceable the remaining covenants or provisions hereof, and any such invalidity or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such covenant or provision in any other jurisdiction. It shall not be a breach of this Section 5.03 for any Seller to provide services as an employee or consultant to Buyer or its Affiliates.

Section 5.04 Share Ownership. Each Seller understands, acknowledges and agrees to the following:

(a) Seller shall not sell, assign or transfer any OPT Common Stock until the twelve month anniversary of the date of this Agreement. In the event that a Seller terminates his employment with the Company (other than for Good Reason) or has his employment terminated by the Company (for Cause), in each case prior to the one year anniversary of the date of this Agreement, such Seller shall automatically surrender to the Company, and forfeit all ownership of, his OPT Shares. Any forfeiture of OPT Shares shall be treated by all parties as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

For purposes of this Section 5.04(a), (1) “Cause” is defined as: (a) an intentional act of fraud, embezzlement, theft or any other material violation of law that occurs during or in the course of Seller’s employment with the Company; (b) intentional disclosure of the Company’s confidential information contrary to the Company’s policies; (c) material breach of Seller’s obligations under his employment letter with the Company; (d) intentional engagement in any competitive activity which would constitute a material breach of Seller’s duty of loyalty or of his obligations under his employment letter with the Company; (e) intentional material breach of any of the Company’s policies, provided that a copy of such policy has been previously provided to such Seller in writing; (f) the willful and continued failure to substantially perform Seller’s duties for the Company (other than as a result of incapacity due to physical or mental illness), following notice and a reasonable opportunity to cure; or (g) willful conduct by such Seller that is demonstrably and materially injurious to the Company, monetarily or otherwise, and (2) “Good Reason” is defined as the existence of any of the following, without Seller’s written consent: (a) a material diminution in his authority, duties, or responsibilities; (b) a material diminution in overall compensation by the Company except for any across-the-board reductions approved by the Board for all similarly-situated employees (not to exceed 15%); (c) a change to his primary work location to a location more than fifty (50) miles outside of the greater Houston metropolitan area; (d) a material breach of his employment letter with the Company; or (e) such Seller’s death or permanent incapacity.

(b) Seller understands, acknowledges and agrees with Buyer as follows: (i) the issuance of the OPT Shares is intended to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act, by virtue of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, which is in part dependent upon the truth, completeness and accuracy of the statements made by Seller herein; and (ii) there can be no assurance that Seller will be able to sell or dispose of any of the OPT Shares.

(c) Seller acknowledges and agrees that it has executed and will comply at all times while a stockholder of the Company with all applicable policies, rules and regulations of Company, including, without limitation, its Insider Trading Policy.

(d) Seller understands, acknowledges and agrees that, as a result of the acquisition of OPT Common Stock, it may be required to file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a Schedule 13D (Information to Be Included in Statements Filed Pursuant to Rule 13d-1(a) and Amendments Thereto Filed Pursuant to Rule 13d-2(a)) and a Form 3 (Initial Statement of Beneficial Ownership of Securities). Seller further understands, acknowledges and agrees that it has the sole responsibility to amend these documents as necessary after they are filed and Buyer shall have no liability or obligation to it with respect thereto.

(e) Until the twelve month anniversary of the date of this Agreement, at any meeting of stockholders of Buyer or at any adjournment thereof or in any other circumstances upon which a vote, consent or other approval (including by written consent) is sought, Seller shall, including by executing a written consent or proxy if requested by Buyer, vote (or cause to be voted) its shares of OPT Common Stock in favor of each director nominated by the board of directors of Buyer and in favor of any proposal which the board of directors of Buyer recommends to the other stockholders of Buyer. For the avoidance of doubt, this Agreement is intended to constitute a voting agreement entered into under Section 218(c) of the Delaware General Corporation Law.

(f) Until the 24 month anniversary of the date of this Agreement, neither Seller nor any of its affiliates, shall, without the prior written consent of the board of directors of Buyer, directly or indirectly, (a) effect or seek, offer or propose (whether publicly or otherwise) to effect, or cause or participate in or in any way assist any other person to effect or seek, offer or propose (whether publicly or otherwise) to effect or participate in, (i) any acquisition of any securities or rights to acquire any securities (or any other beneficial ownership thereof) or assets of Buyer or any of its subsidiaries (provided that the foregoing shall not apply to any acquisition of securities under the terms hereof); (ii) any merger or other business combination or tender or exchange offer involving Buyer or any of its subsidiaries; (iii) any “solicitation” of “proxies” (as such terms are used in the proxy rules of the SEC) or consents to vote with respect to any voting securities of the Buyer, or any communication exempted from the definition of “solicitation” by Rule 14a-1(l)(2)(iv) under the Exchange Act; (b) form, join or in any way participate in a “group” (as defined under the Exchange Act) with respect to Buyer; (c) have any discussions or enter into any arrangements, understandings or agreements (oral or written) with, or advise, finance, assist or actively encourage, any third party with respect to any of the matters set forth in this Section 5.04(e), or make any investment in any other person that engages, or offers or proposes to engage, in any of such matters; (d) take any action which might cause or require Buyer, Seller and/or their affiliates to make a public announcement regarding any of the types of matters set forth in this Section 5.04(e); or (e) disclose any intention, plan or arrangement relating to any of the foregoing.

Section 5.05 No Claim Against the Company. Effective as of the Closing, each Seller waives any and all rights of indemnification, contribution and other similar rights against the Company (whether arising pursuant to the Company’s certificate of formation, operating or company agreement or other organizational documents, any Contract, any Law or otherwise) arising out of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in the Transaction Documents and/or out of the negotiation, execution and performance of the Transaction Documents, and agrees that any claim of any Buyer Indemnitee, whether for indemnity or otherwise, may be asserted directly against any Seller (to the extent provided herein), without any need for any claim against, or joinder of, the Company.

Section 5.06 Further Assurances. Following the Closing, each of the parties hereto shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, execute and deliver such additional documents and instruments and take such further actions as may be reasonably required to carry out the provisions hereof and give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

ARTICLE VI

Tax matters

Section 6.01 Tax Covenants.

(a) Without the prior written consent of Buyer, no Seller shall, to the extent it may affect or relate to the Company: (i) make, change, or rescind any Tax election; (ii) amend any Tax Return; (iii) take any position on any Tax Return; or (iv) take any action, omit to take any action, or enter into any other transaction that would have the effect of increasing the Tax liability or reducing any Tax asset of Buyer or the Company, in respect of any taxable period that begins after the Closing Date or, in respect of any taxable period that begins on or before and ends after the Closing Date (each such period, a “Straddle Period”), the portion of such Straddle Period beginning after the Closing Date.

(b) All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, value added, and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall be borne and paid one half by Sellers and one half by Buyer when due. Each Party shall, at its own expense, timely file any Tax Return or other document with respect to such Taxes or fees (and the Parties shall cooperate with respect thereto as necessary).

(c) Buyer shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, all Tax Returns required to be filed by the Company after the Closing Date with respect to any taxable period or portion thereof ending on or before the Closing Date and all Straddle Period Tax Returns. Any such Tax Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice (unless otherwise required by Law) and without a change of any election or any accounting method.

Section 6.02 Straddle Period. In the case of Taxes that are payable with respect to a Straddle Period, the portion of any such Taxes that are allocated to Pre-Closing Tax Periods for purposes of this Agreement shall be: (a) in the case of Taxes (i) based upon, or related to, income, receipts, profits, wages, capital, or net worth, (ii) imposed in connection with the sale, transfer, or assignment of property, or (iii) required to be withheld, the amount of Taxes which would be payable if the taxable year ended with the Closing Date; and (b) in the case of other Taxes, the amount of such Taxes for the entire period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire period.

Section 6.03 Termination of Existing Tax Sharing Agreements. Any and all existing Tax sharing agreements (whether written or not) binding upon the Company shall be terminated as of the Closing Date. After such date neither the Company, any Seller, nor any of such Seller’s Affiliates and their respective Representatives shall have any further rights or liabilities thereunder.

Section 6.04 Tax Indemnification. Each Seller on a several basis, and not a joint and several basis, based on each Seller’s pro rata ownership of Units, shall indemnify the Company, Buyer, and each Buyer Indemnitee and hold them harmless from and against (a) any loss, damage, liability, deficiency, Action, judgment, interest, award, penalty, fine, cost or expense of whatever kind (collectively, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and the cost of enforcing any right to indemnification under this Agreement, “Losses”) attributable to any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation or warranty made in Section 3.19; (b) any Loss attributable to any breach or violation of, or failure to fully perform, any covenant, agreement, undertaking, or obligation in Article VI; (c) all Taxes of the Company or relating to the business of the Company for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods (as defined below); (d) all Taxes of any member of an affiliated, consolidated, combined, or unitary group of which the Company (or any predecessor of the Company) is or was a member on or prior to the Closing Date by reason of a liability under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 or any comparable provisions of foreign, state, or local Law; and (e) any and all Taxes of any Person imposed on the Company arising under the principles of transferee or successor liability or by contract, relating to an event or transaction occurring before the Closing Date. In each of the above cases, together with any out-of-pocket fees and expenses (including attorneys’ and accountants’ fees) incurred in connection therewith, each Seller shall reimburse Buyer for any Taxes of the Company that are the responsibility of such Seller pursuant to this Section 6.04 within ten business days after payment of such Taxes by Buyer or the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Pre-Closing Tax Period” means any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date and, with respect to any taxable period beginning on or before and ending after the Closing Date, the portion of such taxable period ending on and including the Closing Date.

Section 6.05 Cooperation and Exchange of Information. Each Seller and Buyer shall provide each other with such cooperation and information as either of them reasonably may request of the other in filing any Tax Return pursuant to this Article VI or in connection with any proceeding in respect of Taxes of the Company, including providing copies of relevant Tax Returns and accompanying documents. Each Seller and Buyer shall retain all Tax Returns and other documents in its possession relating to Tax matters of the Company for any Pre-Closing Tax Period (collectively, “Tax Records”) until the expiration of the statute of limitations of the taxable periods to which such Tax Records relate and will offer one another possession of the same before disposing of such Tax Records.

Section 6.06 Survival. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the provisions of Section 3.19 and this Article VI shall survive for the full period of all applicable statutes of limitations (giving effect to any waiver, mitigation, or extension thereof) plus 90 days.

ARTICLE VII

Indemnification

Section 7.01 Indemnification by Sellers. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article VII, Sellers on a several basis, and not a joint and several basis, based on each Seller’s pro rata ownership of Units, shall indemnify and defend each of Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Company) and their respective Representatives (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnitees”) against, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against, and shall pay and reimburse each of them for, any and all Losses incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, the Buyer Indemnitees based upon, arising out of, with respect to, or by reason of:

(a) any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of Sellers contained in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents; or

(b) any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement, or obligation to be performed by Sellers pursuant to this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents.

Section 7.02 Indemnification by Buyer. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article VII, Buyer shall indemnify and defend each Seller and their Affiliates and their respective Representatives (collectively, the “Seller Indemnitees”) against, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against, and shall pay and reimburse each of them for, any and all Losses incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, the Seller Indemnitees based upon, arising out of, with respect to, or by reason of:

(a) any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of Buyer contained in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents; or

(b) any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement, or obligation to be performed by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 7.03 Indemnification Procedures. Whenever any claim shall arise for indemnification hereunder, the party entitled to indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly provide written notice of such claim to the other party (the “Indemnifying Party”). In connection with any claim giving rise to indemnity hereunder resulting from or arising out of any Action by a Person who is not a party to this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party, at its sole cost and expense and upon written notice to the Indemnified Party, may assume the defense of any such Action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any such Action, with its counsel and at its own cost and expense. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of any such Action, the Indemnified Party may, but shall not be obligated to, defend against such Action in such manner as it may deem appropriate, including settling such Action, after giving notice of it to the Indemnifying Party, on such terms as the Indemnified Party may deem appropriate and no action taken by the Indemnified Party in accordance with such defense and settlement shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations herein provided with respect to any damages resulting therefrom. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle any Action without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

Section 7.04 Survival; Indemnity Limits.

(a) Subject to the limitations and other provisions of this Agreement, all representations and warranties contained herein and all related rights to indemnification shall survive the Closing and shall remain in full force and effect until the date that is 13 months from the Closing Date; provided, however, that the representations and warranties in (a) Section 3.01, Section 3.03, Section 3.27, Section 4.01, and Section 4.04 shall survive indefinitely; and (b) Section 3.16, Section 3.17 and Section 3.19 shall survive for the full period of all applicable statutes of limitations (giving effect to any waiver, mitigation, or extension thereof) plus sixty (60) days. Subject to Article VI, all covenants and agreements of the parties contained herein shall survive the Closing indefinitely unless another period is explicitly specified herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any claims which are timely asserted in good faith with reasonable specificity (to the extent known at such time) and in writing by notice from the non-breaching party to the breaching party prior to the expiration date of the applicable survival period shall not thereafter be barred by the expiration of the relevant representation or warranty and such claims shall survive until finally resolved.

(b) The Buyer Indemnitees shall not have the right to be indemnified pursuant to Section 7.01 for any Losses unless the aggregate Losses in respect thereof exceeds $5,000 (the “Mini-Basket”), and such claims that do not exceed the Mini-Basket will not be counted for the purposes of determining whether the Indemnification Threshold (as defined below) has been reached; provided that the foregoing limitations shall not apply in respect of any Losses relating to the misrepresentation, breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warrant in Section 3.01, Section 3.03 and Section 3.27. With respect to the matters described in Section 7.01(a), the Sellers shall have no liability for indemnification until the Buyer Indemnitees have suffered aggregate Losses by reason thereof in excess of an amount equal to $20,000 (the “Indemnification Threshold”), at which time the Sellers will be obligated to indemnify the Buyer Indemnitees only for Losses in excess of the Indemnification Threshold up to an amount equal to $160,000 (the “Indemnification Cap”); provided that the Indemnification Threshold and Indemnification Cap shall not apply to claims for fraud or the misrepresentation, breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by the Sellers in Section 3.01, Section 3.03 and Section 3.27. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of determining (x) whether there has been a breach requiring the Sellers to indemnify as provided in Section 7.01 and (y) the amount of Losses resulting from such breach, (i) each representation, warranty, covenant and agreement made by the Principals or the Sellers, whether made herein or in any other document, agreement or instrument delivered in connection herewith, is made without any qualifications or limitations as to materiality and (ii) without limiting the foregoing, the word “material” and words or phrases of similar import shall be deemed deleted from any such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement. In no event will the aggregate Losses for which the Sellers are obligated to indemnify the Buyer Indemnitees exceed the Purchase Price.

(c) To the extent that there are Losses that are finally determined to be owed by any Seller to the Buyer under this Article VII prior to the one year anniversary of the date of this Agreement, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 7.04, Seller may, at Seller’s sole discretion, elect to have such Losses be paid by the redemption by Buyer of OPT Shares issued to him under this Agreement. The number of OPT Shares to be redeemed shall be equal to the amount of the Loss owed by such Seller divided by the final trading price of OPT Shares on the date the amount of the Loss is finally determined.

Section 7.05 Tax Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the control of any claim, assertion, event, or proceeding in respect of Taxes of the Company (including, but not limited to, any such claim in respect of a breach of the representations and warranties in Section 3.19 hereof or any breach or violation of or failure to fully perform any covenant, agreement, undertaking, or obligation in Article VI) shall be governed exclusively by Article VI hereof.

Section 7.06 Cumulative Remedies. The rights and remedies provided for in this Article VII (and in Article VI) are cumulative and are in addition to and not in substitution for any other rights and remedies available at Law or in equity or otherwise.

ARTICLE VIII

Miscellaneous

Section 8.01 Expenses. Except as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such costs and expenses.

In the event of any inconsistency between the statements in the body of this Agreement and those in the other Transaction Documents, any exhibits, and the Disclosure Schedules (other than an exception expressly set forth as such in the Disclosure Schedules), the statements in the body of this Agreement will control.

Section 8.06 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither party may assign its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. No assignment shall relieve the assigning party of any of its obligations hereunder.

Section 8.07 Amendment and Modification; Waiver. This Agreement may only be amended, modified, or supplemented by an agreement in writing signed by each party hereto. No waiver by any party of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the party so waiving. No failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right or remedy arising from this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right or remedy hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy.

Section 8.08 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. All matters arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Texas without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Texas or any other jurisdiction). Any legal suit, action, proceeding, or dispute arising out of or related to this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby may be instituted in the federal courts of the United States of America or the courts of the State of Texas in each case located in the city of Houston and county of Harris, and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action, proceeding, or dispute.

Section 8.09 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same agreement.
