At or prior to the First Closing, each Shareholder shall deliver to Buyer a duly executed letter of transmittal in the form provided by Buyer (“Letter of Transmittal”) that has been completed in accordance with the instructions thereto (which Letters of Transmittal may be modified by the subject Shareholder(s) by written notice to Buyer as to the directions for making payment to such Shareholder(s) at least two Business Days prior to the date of the applicable payment). Such Letter of Transmittal shall advise each First Closing Shareholder of the procedure for surrendering his or her First Tranche Shares in connection with the First Closing in consideration of such Shareholder’s Pro Rata Share of the First Tranche Purchase Price (as set forth adjacent to such Shareholder’s name on Exhibit 2 attached hereto) payable in accordance with Section 2.02(a) (First Tranche Purchase Price) below.

Section 2.02 Purchase Price.

(a) First Tranche Purchase Price. The purchase price for the First Tranche Shares shall be five million dollars ($5,000,000.00) (“First Tranche Purchase Price”), reflecting a per Share purchase price of approximately $9.27, payable by wire transfer of immediately available funds on the First Closing Date to an account or accounts designated to Buyer in the applicable Letters of Transmittal.

(b) Second Tranche Purchase Price. The purchase price for the Second Tranche Shares shall be five million dollars ($5,000,000.00) (“Second Tranche Purchase Price”), reflecting a per Share purchase price of approximately $9.65, payable by wire transfer of immediately available funds as follows:

(ii) the aggregate estimated maximum amount of any indemnification claims of which Buyer has notified the Shareholder Representative on or prior to the Second Closing Date that Buyer may have pursuant to this Agreement up to a maximum of one million dollars ($1,000,000) (the amount of such claims the “Second Tranche Escrow Payment”), on the Second Closing Date to an account designated by the Escrow Agent, to be held in escrow until final resolution of such claim or claims in accordance with the Escrow Agreement, provided, however, that if the total amount of such claims of which Buyer has notified the Stockholder Representative is less than the Basket, the Second Tranche Escrow Payment shall be zero;

(iii) an amount equal to the difference of (A) one million dollars ($1,000,000.00) less (B) the Second Tranche Escrow Payment, (such difference the “Second Tranche Contingent Cash Payment”) payable on the Second Closing Date to the account or accounts designated to Buyer in the applicable Letters of Transmittal; provided, however, if such amount does not equal a positive integer, no payment shall be due under this Section 2.02(b)(iii) (Purchase Price); and

(d) [Intentionally Omitted.]

(e) Earn-Out Payments.

(i) As additional consideration for the Shares and the other promises and covenants contained herein, and subject to and as a condition of each Shareholder’s compliance with, and fulfillment of, its obligations and covenants hereunder, Buyer shall pay each Shareholder with respect to each Calculation Period an amount calculated in accordance with this Section 2.02(e) (Earn-Out Payments) its Pro Rata Share of up to an aggregate maximum (for any Calculation Period and in the aggregate for all Calculation Periods) of seven million dollars ($7,000,000) (each an “Earn-Out Payment” and, collectively, the “Earn-Out Payments”).

(ii) Each Earn-Out Payment, if any, shall be payable by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account or accounts designated to Buyer in the Letters of Transmittal on the date that is two Business Days following the public release of final audited consolidated financial results in Parent’s Form 10-K for each Calculation Period (“Earn-Out Payment Date”). Each Shareholder shall receive a portion of each Earn-Out Payment equal to such Shareholder’s Pro Rata Share as set forth on Exhibit 2 attached hereto.

(iii) The Earn-Out Payment for each Calculation Period, if any, shall be an amount equal to: (A) the sum of (1) Direct Software Revenue plus (2) Indirect Software Revenue minus (3) Total R&D Expense, multiplied by (B) the product of (1) the Earn-Out Percentage multiplied by (2) the Achievement Percentage; provided, however, if the Achievement Percentage for a particular Calculation Period does not equal or exceed seventy five percent (75%), no Earn-Out Payment shall be due or payable for such Calculation Period.

(iv) Procedures Applicable to Determination of Earn-Out Payments.

(A) By February 15 of each year from 2016 through 2019, inclusive (each such date, an “Earn-Out Calculation Delivery Date”), Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Shareholder Representative a written statement (in each case, an “Earn-Out Calculation Statement”) setting forth in reasonable detail its calculation of the resulting Earn-Out Payment (in each case, an “Earn-Out Calculation”). No later than the fifteenth (15^th) Business Day of each month from January 2015 through December 2018, inclusive, Buyer shall also prepare and deliver to the Shareholder Representative a written statement setting forth in reasonable detail its calculation of the Earn-Out Payment earned through the end of the immediately preceding month in such Calculation Period.

(B) Shareholder Representative shall have fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt of the Earn-Out Calculation Statement for each Calculation Period (in each case, the “Earn-Out Review Period”) to review the Earn-Out Calculation Statement and the Earn-Out Calculation set forth therein. During the Earn-out Review Period, Shareholders Accountants shall have the right to inspect only those Company books and records supporting the Earn-Out Calculation during normal business hours at the Company’s offices, upon reasonable prior notice and solely for purposes reasonably related to the determinations of the Earn-Out Payment. Prior to the expiration of the Earn-out Review Period, Shareholder Representative may object to the Earn-Out Calculation set forth in the Earn-Out Calculation Statement for the applicable Calculation Period by delivering a written notice of objection (an “Earn-Out Calculation Objection Notice”) to Buyer.

(C) Any Earn-Out Calculation Objection Notice shall specify the items in the applicable Earn-Out Calculation disputed by Shareholder Representative and shall describe in reasonable detail the basis for such objection, as well as the amount in dispute. If Shareholder Representative fails to deliver an Earn-Out Calculation Objection Notice to Buyer prior to the expiration of the Earn-out Review Period, then the Earn-Out Calculation set forth in the Earn-Out Calculation Statement shall be final and binding on the parties hereto. If Shareholder Representative timely delivers an Earn-Out Calculation Objection Notice, Buyer and Shareholder Representative shall negotiate in good faith to resolve the disputed items and agree upon the resulting amount of the Earn-Out Payment for the applicable Calculation Period. If Buyer and Shareholder Representative are unable to reach agreement within ten (10) calendar days after such an Earn-Out Calculation Objection Notice has been given, all unresolved disputed items shall be promptly submitted for resolution to the office of an impartial nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants other than Shareholders’ Accountants or Buyer’s Accountants selected by mutual agreement of Buyer and Shareholder Representative (the “Independent Accountant”). The Independent Accountant shall be directed to render a written report on the unresolved disputed items with respect to the applicable Earn-Out Calculation as promptly as practicable, but in no event greater than thirty (30) calendar days after such submission to the Independent Accountant, and to resolve only those unresolved disputed items set forth in the Earn-Out Calculation Objection Notice. If unresolved disputed items are submitted to the Independent Accountant, Buyer and Shareholder Representative shall each furnish to the Independent Accountant such work papers, schedules and other documents and information relating to the unresolved disputed items as the Independent Accountant may reasonably request. The Independent Accountant shall resolve the disputed items based solely on the applicable definitions and other terms in this Agreement and the presentations by Buyer and Shareholder Representative, and not by independent review. The resolution of the dispute and the calculation of Earn-Out Payment that is the subject of the applicable Earn-Out Calculation Objection Notice by the Independent Accountant shall be final and binding on the parties hereto. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be borne by Shareholders and Buyer in proportion to the amounts by which their respective calculations differ from the Earn-Out Calculations as finally determined by the Independent Accountant.

(v) In the event of a Change of Control of Parent prior to the Earn-Out Payment Date occurring in 2019, Parent shall cause the Person acquiring control of Parent to expressly assume Parent’s obligations under this Agreement. In the event of a Change of Control of Buyer or a Change of Control of a (direct or indirect) subsidiary of Parent that owns the Software prior to the Earn-Out Payment Date occurring in 2019, Parent shall cause the Person acquiring control of Buyer or such other Person to expressly assume Buyer’s obligations under this Section 2.02(e) (Earn-Out Payments). In the event of a transfer of title or exclusive license of the Software prior to the Earn-Out Payment Date occurring in 2019, Parent shall cause the Person acquiring title to the Software or so licensing the Software to expressly assume Buyer’s obligations under this Section 2.02(e) (Earn-Out Payments).

(vi) Subsequent to the First Closing through the earlier of December 31, 2018 or full payment of the maximum amount of Earn-Out Payments, it is Buyer’s intention to:

(A) take such measures as are reasonably required to assist in the generation of Software Revenue adequate to cause full payment of the Earn-Out Payments, including (i) actively promoting sales of the Software through those existing sales channels of Buyer and/or Parent which are reasonably appropriate to the Software’s potential customers whose requirements match the current Software functionality (referred to herein as the Software’s “Addressable Market”), (ii) prioritizing such sales of the Software within the then-current Addressable Market , and (iii) prioritizing sales of the Software versus any existing Parent or Buyer software products or services that might compete with or be a substitute for the Software (except that Buyer and/or Parent may continue to prioritize sales of existing products in table service and international markets);

(B) take such measures as are reasonably required to maintain and expand the addressable market by investing in the development of the Software;

(D) involve the Shareholder Representative in any strategic decisions of either Parent or Buyer that may result in a material reduction or delay in the timing of recognition of Software Revenue or a material increase in Total R&D Expense;

(E) not terminate the Insider Shareholders without Cause (as defined in the Employment Agreement); and

(F) not permit any condition to exist that would, upon an Insider Shareholder’s resignation, constitute termination for Good Reason (as defined in the Employment Agreement).

(vii) Earn-Out Impairment.

(A) In the event that, prior to December 31, 2018 or full payment of the maximum amount of Earn-Out Payments, any action or inaction of Buyer or Parent occurs that the Shareholder Representative believes in good faith has not materially conformed to subsections (vi)(A) through (F) above (any of the foregoing a “Change in Strategic Direction”), the Shareholder Representative shall notify Buyer in writing within thirty (30) days of its knowledge that the events giving rise to such Change in Strategic Direction have occurred (such notice an “Impairment Notice”) of: (1) the occurrence of a Change in Strategic Direction, (2) the events constituting such Change in Strategic Direction, and (3) the Shareholder Representative’s good faith estimate of the amount by which the Earn-Out Payments for each Calculation Period affected by such Change in Strategic Direction has been reduced or is likely to be reduced, as compared to the expected amount the Earn-Out Payment for each such Calculation Period had such Change in Strategic Direction not occurred (the aggregate amount of all such reductions for all Calculation Periods the “Earn-Out Impairment”). For the avoidance of doubt, no Change in Strategic Direction shall have occurred on the basis of any events to which the Shareholder Representative shall have consented in writing.

(B) Buyer shall have thirty (30) days after its receipt of the Impairment Notice to respond in writing thereto. If Buyer disagrees a Change in Strategic Direction has occurred or as to the amount of the Earn-Out Impairment, Buyer shall notify the Shareholder Representative and such notice to the Shareholder Representative shall be a “Dispute Notice” and such dispute shall be a “Dispute” pursuant to Section 10.09(c) (Governing Law; Dispute Resolution) and such Dispute shall be resolved in accordance with such section. If the Buyer does not so respond within such thirty (30) day period, the Buyer shall be deemed to have rejected the amount of the Earn-Out Impairment, in which case the Shareholder Representative shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Shareholder Representative pursuant to Section 10.09(c) (Governing Law; Dispute Resolution); provided, however, the sole matters to be determined pursuant to any arbitration of a Dispute concerning an Earn-Out Impairment shall be (1) whether a Change in Strategic Direction occurred and (2) if so, the amount of the Earn-Out Impairment.

(C) Any Earn-Out Impairment amount either agreed to by Buyer and the Shareholder Representative or determined by an arbitrator pursuant to Section 10.10(c) (Governing Law; Dispute Resolution) shall be paid by Buyer in equal installments over the remaining Earn-Out Payment Dates in addition to any Earn-Out Payment otherwise due on such date, subject in all cases to the requirement that the total amount of Earn-Out Payments and Earn-Out Impairment amounts shall not exceed $7,000,000.

(D) Nothing contained herein shall limit Buyer’s right and obligation to exercise reasonable business judgment and to discharge fiduciary responsibilities to shareholders and shareholders of Parent in connection with conducting the business of the Company, subject to Buyer’s obligation to make any payments required by this Section.

(viii) The parties hereto understand and agree that (A) the contingent rights to receive any Earn-Out Payment shall not be represented by any form of certificate or other instrument, are not transferable, except by operation of Laws relating to descent and distribution, divorce and community property, and do not constitute an equity or ownership interest in Buyer or the Company, (B) Shareholders shall not have any rights as a security holder of Buyer or the Company as a result of Shareholders’ contingent rights to receive any Earn-Out Payment hereunder, and (C) no interest is payable with respect to any Earn-Out Payment.

(f) Buyer shall have the right to withhold and set off against any amount otherwise due to be paid pursuant to this Section 2.02 (Purchase Price) the amount of (i) any Purchase Price Adjustment owed to it pursuant to Section 2.04 (Purchase Price Adjustment) and (ii) any Losses to which any Buyer Indemnitee may be entitled under Article VIII (Indemnification) of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

Prior to the expiration of the Review Period, Shareholder Representative may object to the Net Asset Calculations by delivering a written notice of objection (“Statement of Objections”) to Buyer.

(ii) Any Statement of Objection shall specify the items in the Net Asset Calculation disputed by Shareholder Representative and shall describe in reasonable detail the basis for such objection, as well as the amount in dispute. If Shareholder Representative fails to deliver the Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Review Period, the Closing Date Balance Sheet, Net Asset Calculations and the Post-Closing Adjustment shall be final and binding on the parties hereto. If Shareholder Representative timely delivers the Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Review Period, Buyer and Shareholders shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such objections within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the Statement of Objections (the “Resolution Period”), and, if the same are so resolved within the Resolution Period, the Closing Date Balance Sheet, Net Asset Calculations and the Post-Closing Adjustment with such changes as may have been previously agreed in writing by Buyer and Shareholders, shall be final and binding.

The parties hereto agree that all adjustments shall be made without regard to materiality. The Independent Accountant shall only decide the specific items under dispute by the parties and their decision for each Disputed Amount must be within the range of values assigned to each such item in the Net Asset Calculations and the Statement of Objections, respectively.

(iv) The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be paid by Shareholders, on the one hand, and by Buyer, on the other hand, based upon the percentage that the amount actually contested but not awarded to Shareholders or Buyer, respectively, bears to the aggregate amount actually contested by Shareholders and Buyer.

(v) The Independent Accountant shall make a determination as soon as practicable within thirty (30) days (or such other time as the parties hereto shall agree in writing) after their engagement, and their resolution of the Disputed Amounts and their adjustments to the Post-Closing Adjustment shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto.

(c) Adjustments for Tax Purposes. Any payments made pursuant to Section 2.04 (Purchase Price Adjustment) shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price by the parties for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

Section 2.05 Closing.

(a) First Closing.

(ii) upon reasonable notice, afford the Representatives of Shareholders reasonable access (including the right to make, at the Shareholders’ expense, photocopies and/or electronic copy), during normal business hours, to such books and records;

provided, however, that any books and records related to Tax matters shall be retained pursuant to the periods set forth in Article VI (Tax Matters).

(b) Buyer shall not be obligated to provide the other party with access to any books or records (including personnel files) pursuant to this Section 5.05 (Books and Records) where such access would violate any Law.

Section 5.06 Public Announcements. Unless otherwise required by applicable Law or stock exchange requirements (based upon the reasonable advice of counsel), no party to this Agreement shall make any public announcements in respect of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or otherwise communicate with any news media without the prior written consent of the other party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and the parties shall cooperate as to the timing and contents of any such announcement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Buyer shall be entitled, without the prior approval of Shareholders, to file a Current Report on Form 8-K with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and by the Transaction Documents in the form required by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and/or any other public disclosure as is required by applicable Law or stock exchange requirements.

Section 5.07 Further Assurances. Following the First Closing and continuing after consummation of the Second Closing, each of the parties hereto shall, and shall use commercially reasonable best efforts to cause their respective Affiliates to, execute and deliver such additional documents, instruments, conveyances and assurances 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. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if any consent, approval or authorization necessary to preserve any right or benefit under any Contract to which the Company is a party is not obtained prior to the First Closing or Second Closing, as applicable, the Insider Shareholders shall, subsequent to such Closing, provide reasonable assistance to Buyer and the Company in obtaining such consent, approval or authorization as promptly thereafter as practicable. If such consent, approval or authorization cannot be obtained, Shareholders shall use their reasonable best efforts to provide the Company with the rights and benefits of the affected Contract for the term thereof, and, if Shareholders provide such rights and benefits, the Company shall assume all obligations and burdens thereunder.

Section 5.08 Parent Guaranty. In consideration of the covenants, agreements and undertakings of Shareholders contained in this Agreement, Parent hereby guarantees to Shareholders, and their permitted successors and assigns, the full, prompt and complete payment and performance by Buyer of all of the covenants, conditions and agreements of the Buyer contained in this Agreement. Parent hereby waives all notice of default by the Buyer and consents to any extension that may be given by Shareholders to the Buyer of time of payment or performance. This guarantee shall be construed as a continuing absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment and performance and not as a guarantee of collection.

Section 5.09 Shareholder Representative.

(a) Each Shareholder hereby irrevocably authorizes, constitutes and appoints the Person identified in Exhibit 12 attached hereto as such “Shareholder Representative” as such Shareholder’s representative (“Shareholder Representative”) and such Shareholder’s true and lawful attorney in fact, to act on such Shareholder’s behalf in the absolute discretion of Shareholder Representative with respect to all matters relating to this Agreement, including execution and delivery of any amendment, supplement, or modification of this Agreement and any other Transaction Document and any waiver of any claim or right arising out of this Agreement and giving and receiving all notices pursuant to this Agreement; and in general, to do all things and to perform all acts, including executing and delivering all agreements, certificates, receipts, instructions, and other instruments contemplated by or deemed advisable to effectuate the provisions of this Section 5.09 (Shareholder Representative), including the exercise of the power to:

(i) give and receive notices and communications;

(ii) agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and comply with orders of courts with respect to claims for indemnification made by Buyer;

(iii) litigate, arbitrate, resolve, settle or compromise any claim for indemnification or Earn Out Payments;

(iv) execute and deliver all documents necessary or desirable to carry out the intent of this Agreement, including the Escrow Agreement;

(v) make all elections or decisions contemplated by this Agreement and any Transaction Document; and,

(vi) take all actions necessary or appropriate in the good faith judgment of Shareholder Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing

(b) Buyer shall be entitled to deal exclusively with Shareholder Representative on all matters relating to this Agreement and shall be entitled to rely conclusively (without further evidence of any kind whatsoever) on any document executed or purported to be executed on behalf of any Shareholder by Shareholder Representative, and on any other action taken or purported to be taken on behalf of any Shareholder by Shareholder Representative, as being fully binding upon such Person. Notices or communications to or from Shareholder Representative shall constitute notice to or from each of the Shareholders. Any decision or action by Shareholder Representative hereunder, including any agreement between Shareholder Representative and Buyer relating to the defense, payment or settlement of any claims for indemnification hereunder or the amount of any Earn Out Payments, shall constitute a decision or action of all Shareholders and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon each such Person. No Shareholder shall have the right to object to, dissent from, protest or otherwise contest the same. The provisions of this Section, including the power of attorney granted hereby, are independent and severable, are irrevocable and coupled with an interest and shall not be terminated by any act of any Shareholder, either individually or collectively, or by operation of Law, whether by death or other event.

(c) The Shareholder Representative may resign at any time, and may be removed for any reason or no reason by the vote or written consent of a majority in interest of the Shareholders according to each Shareholder’s percentage ownership in the Company immediately prior to the First Closing (the “Majority Holders”); provided, however, in no event shall Shareholder Representative resign or be removed without the Majority Holders having first appointed a new Shareholder Representative who shall assume such duties immediately upon the resignation or removal of Shareholder Representative. In the event of the death, incapacity, resignation or removal of Shareholder Representative, a new Shareholder Representative shall be appointed by the vote or written consent of the Majority Holders. The Shareholders acknowledge and agree that, if a Shareholder is available that is also an employee of the Company, any Shareholder Representative appointed hereunder must at the time of such appointment be an employee of the Company and shall be deemed to have immediately resigned such appointment upon the effective date of any cessation of employment with the Company. Notice of such vote or a copy of the written consent appointing such new Shareholder Representative shall be sent to Buyer, such appointment to be effective upon the later of the date indicated in such consent or the date such notice is received by Buyer; provided, that until such notice is received, Buyer shall be entitled to rely on the decisions and actions of the prior Shareholder Representative as described in subsection (b) above.

Section 5.10 Option Agreements. Promptly following the First Closing Date, Parent shall submit to its board of directors with regard to the approval and issuance of the Option Agreements and shall deliver to each Insider Shareholder an Option Agreement for such Insider Shareholder’s acceptance and execution.

TAX MATTERS

Section 6.01 Tax Covenants.

(a) Without the prior written consent of Buyer (which will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), Shareholders shall not, to the extent it may affect, or relate to, the Company, make, change or rescind any Tax election, amend any Tax Return or take any position on any Tax Return, 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 Post-Closing Tax Period.

(b) Without the prior written consent of the Shareholder Representative (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), Buyer shall not, and shall not cause or permit the Company or its Affiliates to (i) amend any Tax Returns filed with respect to any Tax year ending on or before the First Closing Date (or with respect to any Straddle Period) or (ii) make any Tax election that has retroactive effect to any such Tax year (or to any Straddle Period).

(c) 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 (including any real property transfer Tax and any other similar Tax) shall be borne and paid by Shareholders when due. Each Shareholder shall, at its own expense, timely file any Tax Return or other document with respect to such Taxes or fees (and Buyer shall cooperate with respect thereto as necessary).

(d) Buyer shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, all Tax Returns required to be filed by the Company after the First Closing Date with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period. 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 and shall be submitted by Buyer to Shareholders (together with schedules, statements and, to the extent requested by the Shareholders, supporting documentation) at least 45 days prior to the due date (including extensions) of such Tax Return. If Shareholders object to any item on any such Tax Return, it shall, within ten days after delivery of such Tax Return, notify Buyer in writing that it so objects, specifying with particularity any such item and stating the specific factual or legal basis for any such objection. If a notice of objection shall be duly delivered, Buyer and Shareholders shall negotiate in good faith and use their commercially reasonable best efforts to resolve such items. If Buyer and Shareholders are unable to reach such agreement within ten days after receipt by Buyer of such notice, the disputed items shall be resolved by the Independent Accountant and any determination by the Independent Accountant shall be final. The Independent Accountant shall resolve any disputed items within twenty days of having the item referred to it pursuant to such procedures as it may require. If the Independent Accountant is unable to resolve any disputed items before the due date for such Tax Return, the Tax Return shall be filed as prepared by Buyer and then amended to reflect the Independent Accountant’s resolution. The costs, fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be borne equally by Buyer and the Shareholders. The preparation and filing of any Tax Return of the Company that does not relate to a Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be exclusively within the control of Buyer.

Section 6.02 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 First Closing Date. After such date neither the Company, any Shareholder nor any Affiliates of any Shareholder and their respective Representatives shall have any further rights or liabilities thereunder.

Section 6.03 Tax Indemnification. Except to the extent treated as a liability in the calculation of Closing Date Net Assets, the following Losses incurred by Buyer and any Buyer Indemnitee shall constitute “Tax Losses”: (a) any Loss attributable to any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation or warranty made in Section 3.22 (Taxes); (b) any Loss attributable to any breach or violation of, or failure to fully perform, any covenant, agreement, undertaking or obligation in this Article VI (Tax Matters); (c) all Taxes of the Company or relating to the business of the Company for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods; (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 First 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 First 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.

Section 6.04 Straddle Period. In the case of Taxes that are payable with respect to a taxable period that begins before and ends after the First Closing Date (each such period, a “Straddle Period”), the portion of any such Taxes that are treated as Pre-Closing Taxes 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, deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the taxable year ended with the First Closing Date; and

(b) in the case of other Taxes, deemed to be 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 First Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire period.

Section 6.05 Intentionally Omitted..

Section 6.06 Contests. Buyer agrees to give written notice to Shareholders of the receipt of any written notice by the Company, Buyer or any of Buyer’s Affiliates which involves the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any Action, in respect of which an indemnity may be sought by Buyer for a Tax Loss (a “Tax Claim”); provided, that failure to comply with this provision shall not affect Buyer’s right to indemnification hereunder, except and only to the extent that the Shareholders forfeit rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Buyer shall control the contest or resolution of any Tax Claim; provided, however, that Buyer shall obtain the prior written consent of Shareholders (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) before entering into any settlement of a claim or ceasing to defend such claim; and, provided further, that Shareholders shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose, the fees and expenses of which separate counsel shall be borne solely by Shareholders.

Section 6.07 Cooperation and Exchange of Information. Shareholders 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 (Tax Matters) or in connection with any audit or other proceeding in respect of Taxes of the Company. Such cooperation and information shall include providing copies of relevant Tax Returns or portions thereof, together with accompanying schedules, related work papers and documents relating to rulings or other determinations by tax authorities. Each of the Shareholders and Buyer shall retain all Tax Returns, schedules and work papers, records and other documents in its possession relating to Tax matters of the Company for any taxable period beginning before the First Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations of the taxable periods to which such Tax Returns and other documents relate, without regard to extensions except to the extent notified by the other party in writing of such extensions for the respective Tax periods. Prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any Tax Returns, schedules and work papers, records and other documents in its possession relating to Tax matters of the Company for any taxable period beginning before the First Closing Date, Shareholders or Buyer (as the case may be) shall provide the other party with reasonable written notice and offer the other party the opportunity to take custody of such materials.

Section 6.08 Overlap. To the extent that any obligation or responsibility pursuant to Article VIII (Indemnification) may overlap with an obligation or responsibility pursuant to this Article VI (Tax Matters), the provisions of this Article VI (Tax Matters) shall govern.

Section 8.05 Indemnification Procedures. The party making a claim under this Article VIII (Indemnification) is referred to as the “Indemnified Party”, and the party against whom such claims are asserted under this Article VIII (Indemnification) is referred to as the “Indemnifying Party”.

(a) Third Party Claims. If any Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any Action made or brought by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement or a Representative of the foregoing (a “Third Party Claim”) against such Indemnified Party with respect to which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of such notice of such Third Party Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party and the Section of this Agreement pursuant to which such Third Party Claim is made. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party, to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense; provided, that such Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to defend or direct the defense of any such Third Party Claim that seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party. In the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, subject to Section 8.05(b) (Indemnification Procedures), it shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof. The fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party, provided, that if in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party, (A) there are legal defenses available to an Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party; or (B) there exists a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party that cannot be waived, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party in each jurisdiction for which the Indemnified Party determines counsel is required shall be deemed Losses of the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend such Third Party Claim, fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, or fails to diligently prosecute the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may, subject to Section 8.05(b) (Indemnification Procedures), pay, compromise, defend such Third Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third Party Claim. The Shareholder Representative (or in the case of any claim arising under Section 8.02(a) (Indemnification by Shareholders) above, the affected Shareholder) and Buyer shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim, including making available (subject to the provisions of Section 5.03 (Confidentiality)) records relating to such Third Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third Party Claim.

(b) Settlement of Third Party Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, except as provided in this Section 8.05(b) (Indemnification Procedures). If a firm offer is made to settle a Third Party Claim without leading to liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party shall give written notice to that effect to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer within ten (10) days after its receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest or defend such Third Party Claim and in such event, the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party as to such Third Party Claim shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to assume defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may settle the Third Party Claim upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 8.05(a) (Indemnification Procedures), it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(c) Direct Claims. Any Action by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than thirty (30) days after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of such Direct Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party and the Section of this Agreement pursuant to which such Direct Claim is made. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. The Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving such information and assistance (including access to the Company’s premises and personnel and the right to examine and copy any accounts, documents or records) as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such thirty (30) day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the such Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 10.09(c) (Governing Law; Dispute Resolution).

Section 8.06 Payments. Once a Loss is agreed to by the Indemnifying Party to be a Loss for which the Indemnifying Party must indemnify an Indemnified Party, or such Loss is finally adjudicated to be payable pursuant to this Article VIII (Indemnification), the Indemnifying Party shall satisfy its obligations within fifteen (15) Business Days of such final, non-appealable adjudication by (a) wire transfer of immediately available funds or (b) if the Shareholders are the Indemnifying Party and (x) if such agreement occurs before the Second Closing Date, by authorizing Buyer to withhold the agreed Loss from the Second Tranche Escrow Payment, or (y) if such agreement occurs after the Second Closing Date, by instructing the Escrow Agent pursuant to the Escrow Agreement to disburse the amount of any agreed Losses to the Buyer Indemnitee; provided, that, if the Second Tranche Escrow Payment or funds remaining in the Escrow Amount are insufficient to satisfy Shareholders obligations hereunder, Shareholders shall satisfy their obligations by wire transfer of immediately available funds. The parties hereto agree that should an Indemnifying Party not make full payment of any such obligations within such fifteen (15) Business Day period, any amount payable shall accrue interest from and including the date of agreement of the Indemnifying Party or final, non-appealable adjudication to but excluding the date such payment has been made at a rate per annum equal to five per cent (5%). Such interest shall be calculated daily on the basis of a 365 day year and the actual number of days elapsed.

Section 8.07 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

Section 8.08 Effect of Investigation. The representations, warranties and covenants of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification with respect thereto, shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party (including by any of its Representatives) or by reason of the fact that the Indemnified Party or any of its Representatives knew or should have known that any such representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate.

Section 8.09 Exclusive Remedies. Subject to (a) Section 5.04 (Non-competition; Non-solicitation), (b) Section 10.10 (Specific Performance) and (c) any dispute resolution procedures expressly established by the parties herein, including, without limitation, by reference to Section 10.09 (Governing Law; Dispute Resolution), the parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than claims arising from Intentional Fraud, criminal activity or willful misconduct on the part of a party hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in which cases the Persons committing such acts shall be solely responsible therefor to the extent that such claims exceed the Aggregate Purchase Price) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in Article VI (Tax Matters) and this Article VIII (Indemnification) and pursuant to Section 10.09(c) (Governing Law; Dispute Resolution). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other parties hereto and their Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VIII (Indemnification). Nothing in this Section 8.09 (Exclusive Remedies) shall limit any Person’s right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Person shall be entitled or to seek any remedy on account of any party’s Intentional Fraud, criminal or intentional misconduct.

Section 10.02 Interpretation. For purposes of this Agreement, (a) the words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”; (b) the word “or” is not exclusive; and (c) the words “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereto” and “hereunder” refer to this Agreement as a whole. Unless the context otherwise requires, references herein: (x) to Articles, Sections, Disclosure Schedules and Exhibits mean the Articles and Sections of, and Disclosure Schedules and Exhibits attached to, this Agreement; (y) to an agreement, instrument or other document means such agreement, instrument or other document as amended, supplemented and modified from time to time to the extent permitted by the provisions thereof and (z) to a statute means such statute as amended from time to time and includes any successor legislation thereto and any regulations promulgated thereunder. This Agreement shall be construed without regard to any presumption or rule requiring construction or interpretation against the party drafting an instrument or causing any instrument to be drafted. The Disclosure Schedules and Exhibits referred to herein shall be construed with, and as an integral part of, this Agreement to the same extent as if they were set forth verbatim herein.

Section 10.03 Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 10.04 Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. Except as provided in Section 5.04 (Non-competition; Non-solicitation), upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

Section 10.05 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents constitute the sole and entire agreement of the parties to this Agreement with respect to the subject matter contained herein and therein, and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings and agreements, both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter. In the event of any inconsistency between the statements in the body of this Agreement and those in the other Transaction Documents, the Exhibits and 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. No other representations or warranties have been made by the Parties to each other except as are set forth in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

Section 10.06 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. No 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 10.07 No Third-party Beneficiaries. Except as provided in Article VIII (Indemnification), this Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person or entity any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

Section 10.08 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 waiver by any party shall operate or be construed as a waiver in respect of any failure, breach or default not expressly identified by such written waiver, whether of a similar or different character, and whether occurring before or after that waiver. No failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege arising from this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

Section 10.09 Governing Law; Dispute Resolution.

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction).

(b) Except to the extent a different procedure is expressly provided for herein and subject to the limitations of set forth in Article VIII (Indemnification), including, without limitation, Section 8.09 (Exclusive Remedies), if any dispute arises (i) out of or relating to, this Agreement, any Transaction Document or any alleged breach hereof or thereof, or (ii) with respect to any of the Transactions (“Dispute”), the party desiring to resolve such Dispute shall deliver a written notice describing such Dispute with reasonable specificity to the other parties (“Dispute Notice”). If any party delivers a Dispute Notice pursuant to this Section 10.09 (Governing Law; Dispute Resolution), the parties involved in the Dispute shall meet at least twice within the thirty (30) day period commencing with the date of the Dispute Notice and in good faith shall attempt to resolve such Dispute.

(c) If the Dispute is not resolved pursuant to Section 10.09(b) (Governing Law; Dispute Resolution) above, the Dispute shall be submitted to nonbinding mediation with a mutually agreed upon mediator. A demand for mediation shall be forwarded in writing to the other party. Within ten (10) days after receipt of the demand for mediation, the parties shall attempt in good faith to agree on a mediator. Should however, the parties fail to agree on a mediator, then each party shall select a mediator and the two mediators so chosen shall select a third mediator. Mediation shall be conducted by the panel of three mediators. The mediation shall be held within thirty (30) days from the selection of the mediator. Each party shall bear its own expenses of such mediation, including the attorneys’ fees and expenses of the parties. If either party is dissatisfied with such mediation, either party shall have the right to submit such dispute to arbitration pursuant to the following subsection (d).

(d) If the Dispute is not resolved pursuant to Section 10.09(b) or (c) (Governing Law; Dispute Resolution) above, the Dispute or indemnification claim shall be settled by arbitration conducted in San Diego, California, or such other place as mutually agreed to by the parties, which shall be in accordance with the then effective Comprehensive Arbitration Rules of JAMS. The arbitration of such issues, including the determination of any amount of Losses suffered by any party hereto by reason of the acts or omissions of any party, shall be subject to all limitations of liability set forth in this Agreement, including, without limitation, Article VIII (Indemnification), and shall final and binding upon all parties. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award any remedy or relief that a court in the State of California could order or grant, including specific performance of any obligation created under this Agreement, the issuance of an injunction or other provisional relief, or the imposition of sanctions for abuse or frustration of the arbitration process. The arbitrator shall apply the law of the State of New York in deciding the merits of any Dispute. The arbitrator shall provide a written and reasoned explanation for any award rendered in the arbitration. By agreeing to arbitration, the parties do not intend to deprive any court of its jurisdiction to issue a pre-arbitral injunction, pre-arbitral attachment, or other order in aid of arbitration proceedings and the enforcement of any award. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, the cost of any arbitration hereunder, including the cost of the record or transcripts thereof, if any, administrative fees, and all other fees involved including reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by the party determined by the arbitrator to be the prevailing party, shall be paid by the party determined by the arbitrator not to be the prevailing party, or otherwise allocated in an equitable manner as determined by the arbitrator.

Section 10.10 Specific Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the parties shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

Section 10.11 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. A signed copy of this Agreement delivered by facsimile, e-mail or other means of electronic transmission shall be deemed to have the same legal effect as delivery of an original signed copy of this Agreement.
