(h) Liabilities arising out of or resulting from Sellers’ compliance or non-compliance with any Legal Requirements or any order of any Applicable Authority (including, without limitation, fines and penalties); and

ARTICLE IV: PURCHASE PRICE, PAYMENT, ESCROW AND CLOSING

4.1 Purchase Price; Payment and Escrow. (a) Subject to the contribution of a portion of the consideration otherwise payable to the Sellers (as discussed in 4.1(b) below), in consideration of the conveyance, transfer and assignment of all of the Purchased Assets, and the rights and benefits conferred herein, including the covenants of the Sellers, Buyer will deliver the initial purchase price for the Purchased Assets (the “Initial Purchase Price”) as follows: $16,500,000.00 (Sixteen Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars) payable by wire transfers of immediately available funds as set forth on Schedule 4.1 hereto. Moreover, as provided in Section 3 above, Buyer has agreed to assume and discharge the Assumed Liabilities. As used herein, the Initial Purchase Price, plus the Earn-Out Consideration defined and discussed below, shall be referred to as the “Purchase Price”.

(b) Of the Initial Purchase Price payable as provided herein, the sum of $500,000.00 (Five Hundred Thousand Dollars) (“Escrow Amount”) shall be held by the Buyer in escrow (the “Escrow”) and shall be subject to and distributable in accordance with the provisions of the Escrow set forth in Articles IX and X below. Any payments made by the Sellers as Indemnifying Parties to an Indemnified Party shall constitute a reduction of the consideration payable to the Sellers pursuant to this Section 4.1.

(c) Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 4.5(b), the Sellers shall be entitled to receive the Earn-Out Consideration (as defined in Section 4.5), if any. The Earn-Out Consideration, if any, shall constitute additional consideration for the purchase and sale of the Purchased Assets pursuant to this Agreement. Any Earn-Out Consideration shall be allocated among the Sellers in the proportions set forth under Schedule 4.1.

4.2 The Closing. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall be held by electronic mail and overnight courier service, or by the physical exchange of documentation at the offices of Buyer located in Bloomingdale, Illinois, commencing at 10:00 a.m. local time on the date hereof (following the satisfaction or waiver of all conditions to the obligations of the Parties to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby) or such other date as Buyer and Sellers may mutually determine (the “Closing Date”).

4.3 Deliveries at the Closing. At the Closing, (i) Sellers will deliver to Buyer the various certificates, instruments, and documents referred to in Section 8.1 below to document and to transfer title to all of the Purchased Assets from the applicable Seller(s) to Buyer, and (ii) Buyer will deliver to Sellers, as appropriate, the various certificates, instruments, and documents referred to in Section 8.2 below and the consideration specified in Section 4.1 above.

4.4 Net Working Capital Adjustment.

(a) Sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Sellers’ representative (to be identified by Sellers at or prior to the Closing) will deliver to Buyer a statement, prepared in accordance with GAAP, setting forth the Current Assets and Current Liabilities as of the Closing Date (the “Closing Statement”), and the Purchase Price shall be recalculated as provided in Section 4.4(b) below.

(b) Based on the entries set forth in the Closing Statement, the following adjustments (“Post-Closing Adjustment”) shall be made:

(i) If the Net Working Capital is greater than $2,040,000.00 (the “Working Capital Target”), then the Purchase Price shall be increased by an amount equal to the difference and Buyer shall pay Sellers in cash an amount equal to such difference in the proportions set forth under Schedule 4.1.

(ii) If the Working Capital Target is greater than the Net Working Capital, then the Purchase Price shall be reduced by an amount equal to the difference and Sellers shall pay Buyer in cash an amount equal to such difference.

(c) If the Buyer disputes any entry in the Closing Statement relevant to the calculation of the Post-Closing Adjustment, the Buyer shall deliver to Sellers’ representative a written notice within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the Closing Statement (the “Objection Period”) specifying any changes Buyer proposes to the Closing Statement (a “Notice of Disagreement”). If a Notice of Disagreement is timely delivered by Buyer, the Sellers’ representative and Buyer shall, during the fifteen (15) day period immediately following delivery of the Notice of Disagreement, seek in good faith to resolve any differences they may have with respect to the matters specified in the Notice of Disagreement. If such dispute is not resolved to the mutual satisfaction of Buyer and the Sellers’ representative within such fifteen (15) day period, the Sellers’ representative, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, each shall have the right to require that such dispute be submitted to a certified public accounting firm as the Sellers’ representative and Buyer shall then agree in writing (the “Independent Accountant”). Buyer and the Sellers’ representative will give the Independent Accountant access to the books and records, as well as any accounting work papers or other schedules relating to the Closing Statement and the Notice of Disagreement, and such other relevant information reasonably requested by the Independent Accountant. The Independent Accountant shall determine the manner in which any fees and expenses shall be allocated between the Parties (or paid in full by one Party) based upon the size of the difference, if any, between the Post-Closing Adjustment and the amount of the adjustment to the Purchase Price made pursuant to Section 4.4(b). The Independent Accountant shall resolve the computation or verification of the disputed Closing Statement entries in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, and otherwise where applicable in accordance with GAAP. If any matters have been submitted to the Independent Accountant for review and resolution in accordance with the provisions above, then the Sellers’ representative and the Buyer shall request that the Independent Accountant complete its preparation of the Closing Statement within thirty (30) days from the submission of the matters specified in such Notice of Disagreement, and to deliver a copy of the Closing Statement to the Sellers’ representative and the Buyer, together with a report setting forth each disputed adjustment or matter and the Independent Accountant’s determination with respect thereto. The Independent Accountant’s determination will be conclusive and binding upon the Parties and may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.

(d) If the amount owed by Buyer to the Sellers increases or is reduced as a result of the Post-Closing Adjustment, Buyer or the Sellers, as the case may be, shall make appropriate payments to the other within ten (10) days of the later of: (i) the expiration of the Objection Period, (ii) the date on which Buyer and the Sellers’ representative agree on the Post-

Closing Adjustments, and (iii) the date on which the decision of the Independent Accountant is rendered. Any payments required to be made by either Buyer or the Sellers to the other shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such bank account as the recipient shall designate in writing, and shall be deemed to effect an increase or reduction, as the case may be, in the Initial Purchase Price.

4.5 Earn-Out Consideration.

(a) In addition to the Initial Purchase Price, Sellers shall be entitled to payment from Buyer subject to, and in the form and amount determined in accordance with, this Section 4.5 (the “Earn-Out Consideration”).

(b) Earn-Out Period and Amount.

(i) There shall be one earn-out period commencing on January 1, 2013 and concluding on December 31, 2013 (the “Earn-Out Period”).

(ii) The Earn-Out Consideration will be payable in the manner provided below based on the achievement by Parent of its financial performance during calendar year 2013. The metrics to be used to measure the 2013 financial performance are: (1) 2013 revenue, and (2) 2013 non-GAAP earnings per share of the Parent Common Stock. For purposes of calculating the Earn-Out Consideration, each of the above referenced metrics shall be weighted at fifty (50%) per cent. The 2013 financial performance measure for the Parent will be determined by the Parent Board of Directors at its March 2013 meeting. For purposes of this Agreement, “non-GAAP earnings per share” means GAAP earnings per share, excluding stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, restructuring charges, impairment charges, gain/loss on the sale of product lines, non-cash income tax expense and non-cash other income.

(iii) If the 2013 financial performance of Parent as to both metrics is achieved, the Earn-Out Consideration shall be $1,500,000 ($750,000 for each metric). If, for example, 75% of the 2013 financial performance of the Parent for each metric is achieved, the Earn-Out Consideration shall be $0. Achievement of the 2013 financial performance by Parent above 75% and up to 100% shall be calculated on the basis of each metric, on a linear basis. Schedule 4.5(b) sets forth some hypotheticals to illustrate the manner in which the calculations will be made.

(c) Delivery of Earn-Out Statements and Earn-Out Consideration. As soon as practicable but no later than seventy-five (75) days from and after December 31, 2013, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Sellers’ representative a statement (“Earn-Out Statement”) setting forth the computation of the 2013 financial performance of the Parent and the Earn-Out Consideration earned by the Sellers. From and after delivery of the Earn-Out Statement through the payment of the Earn-Out Consideration, Buyer shall afford Sellers’ representative reasonable access upon reasonable notice to the relevant books, records, work papers and personnel of Parent during business hours for the purpose of verifying the calculations in the Earn-Out Statement.

(d) Notice of Earn-Out Dispute. Within fifteen (15) days of Buyer’s delivery of an Earn-Out Statement, Sellers’ representative may deliver a written notice (“Earn-Out Dispute Notice”) to Buyer of any good faith dispute or objection, specifying in reasonable detail any contested amount and the basis therefor, which Sellers’ representative may have to the Earn-Out Statement and the calculations contained therein. The failure of Sellers’ representative to deliver an Earn-Out Dispute Notice within the prescribed time period shall constitute the Sellers’ acceptance as final of the applicable Earn-Out Statement. Any amounts not disputed in the Earn-Out Dispute Notice (if one is delivered) shall be deemed to be accepted by the Sellers as final.

(e) Earn-Out Dispute Resolution. If Sellers’ representative delivers a timely Earn-Out Dispute Notice, then the Sellers’ representative and Buyer shall resolve the dispute in accordance with the dispute resolution provisions set forth in Section 4.4(c) of this Agreement. If, as a result of the decision of the Accountants, the Earn-Out Consideration is greater than the amount indicated by the Buyer, Buyer shall pay the difference between the actual Earn-Out Consideration for the applicable Earn-Out Period and the amount determined by the Accountant within ten (10) business days of the Accountants’ determination.

(f) Maximum Potential Earn-Out Consideration. The maximum potential amount of Earn-Out Consideration that can be earned by Sellers in the Earn-Out Period is $1,500,000, which shall be payable in the form of Common Stock of the Parent (“Earn-Out Stock”) (all of which such Earn-Out Stock shall be duly registered and listed shares of Parent, to be issued without restrictions, other than restrictions, if any, that are imposed by Legal Requirements) to the nearest whole share, and shall be valued by dividing the Earn-Out Consideration by the closing price of Parent Common Stock on the NASDAQ on the last trading day immediately preceding the payment date. Further, Parent agrees to file in a timely manner a Form S-3 Registration Statement and/or take such other action as Parent deems appropriate to enable Parent to pay the Earn-Out Stock to Sellers in the manner and timeframe described herein. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, the Earn-Out payment date shall be ten (10) business days after the delivery of the Earn-Out Statement referenced above. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) any Earn-Out Stock paid pursuant to the above shall be subject to a three (3) month holding period; and (2) should an Earn-Out Stock payment date fall during any blackout period (a “Blackout Period”), any payment of Earn-Out Stock shall be delayed until the third trading day following the expiration of the Blackout Period and such Earn-Out Stock shall be valued at the closing price of the Common Stock on the NASDAQ on the trading day immediately preceding the expiration of the Blackout Period. Sellers’ representative shall provide Buyer with a delivery schedule designating the intended recipients and proportions.

(g) Operation of the Business. Sellers acknowledge and agree that Buyer shall have sole and absolute discretion regarding the operation of the Business and shall not be required to operate the Business so as to maximize any Earn-Out Consideration. Notwithstanding the above, in the event that Parent or Buyer, during the Earn-Out Period, consummate a material business transaction (e.g., major acquisition, divestiture, restructuring or assumption of debt) that affects the level of achievement of 2013 financial performance, Buyer and Parent agree to calculate, for purposes of computing the entitlement to Earn-Out Consideration, 2013 financial performance as if the material business transaction had not been consummated.

(h) Acceleration. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Sellers may, with notice, declare a default hereunder, whereupon the entire amount of the Earn-Out Consideration ($1,500,000) shall become immediately due and payable to the Sellers, whether or not such Earn-Out Consideration has been fully earned in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.5. The following event shall constitute an “Event of Default” hereunder: a Change of Control.

For the purposes of this Section 4.5, a “Change of Control” shall mean (i) the sale, transfer or assignment, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of the Parent; (ii) the sale, transfer or assignment, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, of greater than Fifty Percent (50%) of the voting equity interests of the Parent; or (iii) a merger or consolidation of the Parent with or into any other entity if the Parent is not the surviving company.

4.6 Allocation of Purchase Price. Buyer, at its expense, shall engage an independent third party valuation firm acceptable to Grant Thornton, Parent’s independent auditors, for the purpose of establishing the fair value of the Purchased Assets in accordance with GAAP (ASC 805), and as required by Section 1060 of the Code, and shall deliver such allocation and valuation report to Sellers’ representative within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date. Within thirty (30) days following the receipt by Sellers’ representative of the allocation and valuation report, Sellers’ representative shall deliver written notice to Buyer advising whether Sellers agree or disagree with such allocation/valuation. If Sellers disagree, then each of Buyer and Sellers may use their respective allocations/valuations in preparing and filing their respective returns and any related reports, including but not limited, Internal Revenue Service Form 8594.

4.7 Transfer and Sales Taxes and Fees. Any and all sales, use, excise, value added tax or other transfer taxes (“Transfer Taxes”), recording fees, or personal property title application fees arising by virtue of the sale of the Purchased Assets to Buyer, regardless of whether the liability for said Transfer Taxes or fees is imposed by law upon the Sellers or upon Buyer, shall be borne by the applicable Seller(s). The Seller required by law to file a tax return with respect to such Transfer Taxes shall do so within the time period prescribed by law, and shall indemnify the Buyer, such indemnity to be governed by the provisions of Article X below. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Parties shall cooperate in taking reasonable steps to minimize any Transfer Taxes.

4.8 Further Assurances; Post Closing Cooperation. (i) At any time or from time to time after the Closing, at Buyer’s request, at no cost to Buyer, and without further consideration, Sellers shall execute and deliver to Buyer such other instruments of sale, transfer, conveyance, assignment and confirmation, provide such materials and information and take such other actions as Buyer may reasonably deem necessary or desirable in order to more effectively transfer, convey and assign to Buyer and to confirm Buyer’s title to, all of the Purchased Assets, and, to the full extent permitted by law, to put Buyer in actual possession and operating control of the Purchased Assets and to assist Buyer in exercising all rights with respect thereto, and otherwise to cause Sellers to fulfill its/their obligations under this Agreement. (ii) To the extent that Buyer

cannot be granted possession in respect of any Purchased Asset as of the Closing Date, such Purchased Asset shall be held by Sellers (or third parties, as may be applicable) for and on behalf of Buyer until such time as Buyer is granted possession thereof and during such period Sellers shall bear all risk of loss with respect to such asset(s). (iii) At the request of the Sellers, and at no cost to Buyer, the Buyer covenants and agrees to execute and deliver standard and customary inventory resale certificates prepared by Sellers in all appropriate jurisdictions with respect to the purchased inventory indicating that the purchased inventory will be resold by the Buyer in the ordinary course of its business after the Closing, which resale certificate(s) shall be reasonably satisfactory, in form and substance, to the Buyer.

4.9 Preservation of the Purchased Assets. Sellers hereby agree to take all actions that are either commercially reasonable or which are otherwise consistent with past practices to preserve the value and integrity of the Purchased Assets prior to the transfer of such assets to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement.

4.10 Prorations. To the extent not otherwise prorated or assumed by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, Buyer and Sellers shall prorate as of the Closing Date the responsibility for payment of real and personal property lease payments, property Taxes or ad valorem Taxes on any of the Purchased Assets, utilities services expenses on all utilities servicing any Purchased Assets, including water, sewer, telephone, electricity and gas service, and all other expenses which are normally prorated upon the sale of assets of a going concern. The Sellers shall be responsible for and shall pay any (unless an Assumed Liability) Taxes arising or resulting from or in connection with the ownership of Purchased Assets prior to the Closing.

ARTICLE IX: ESCROW

By virtue of this Agreement and as security for the indemnity provided in Article X hereof, concurrent with the Closing, Buyer shall set aside from the Initial Purchase Price the Escrow Amount to be held by Buyer in Escrow (“Escrow Fund”) and governed by the terms set forth herein. The Escrow Fund shall be available to compensate the Buyer and/or any Indemnified Parties for any claims of such parties for any Losses suffered or incurred by them and for which they are entitled to recovery as provided in Article X of this Agreement (subject to the Buyer’s obligation to take all commercially reasonable good faith efforts to mitigate any such Losses), provided that the Buyer shall not be required to take any action that the Buyer determines in good faith is not in the best interests of the business of the Buyer.

(a) Escrow Period; Distribution of Remaining Escrow Fund. Subject to the requirements set forth below, the Escrow Fund shall be in existence immediately following the Closing and shall terminate at 5:00 p.m., local time in Chicago, Illinois, on December 31, 2013 (the “Escrow Period”), provided, however, that the Escrow Period shall not terminate with respect to any amount which is necessary to satisfy any unsatisfied claims that have been made prior to the expiration of the Escrow Period in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. As soon as all such claims have been resolved, the Buyer shall distribute to Sellers the remaining portion, if any, of the Escrow Fund, pursuant to written instructions from the Sellers’ representative. In case Sellers’ representative shall object in writing to any claims made by Buyer or third party as discussed below, the Parties shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective Parties with respect to each of such claims. If the Parties should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by the Buyer and Sellers’ representative. Buyer shall be entitled to rely on such memorandum and distribute funds from the Escrow in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. The Buyer shall hold and safeguard the Escrow Fund during the Escrow Period, shall treat such Escrow Fund as a trust fund in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and not as the property of Buyer or any Third Party, Indemnified Party or any Indemnifying Party, and shall hold and dispose of the Escrow Fund only in accordance with the terms of this Article IX.

(b) Claims for Indemnification. Claims against the Escrow Fund shall be made in accordance with the procedures set forth in Sections 10.7 and 10.8 of this Agreement.

ARTICLE X: INDEMNIFICATION

Subject to all other terms and conditions set forth in this Article X, all representations, warranties, covenants and obligations in this Agreement, the Disclosure Letter, the supplements to the Disclosure Letter, the certificates delivered pursuant to Sections 8.1(e) and 8.2(e) and any other certificate or document delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Closing and the consummation of the transactions

contemplated hereby. The right to indemnification, payment of Losses or other remedy based on such representations, warranties, covenants, and obligations will not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any Knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing Date, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with any such representation, warranty, covenant, or obligation. The waiver of any condition based on the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of, or compliance with, any covenant or obligation, will not affect the right to indemnification, payment of Losses, or other remedy based on such representations, warranties, covenants and obligations.

10.2 Indemnification by Sellers and Seller Parties. Subject to all other terms and conditions set forth in this Article X, Seller Parties and Sellers, jointly and severally, will indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer, its successors and permitted assigns, and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, consultants, advisors, or other representatives, including legal counsel, accountants, and financial advisors (the “Buyer Indemnitees”), and will reimburse the Buyer Indemnitees for all Losses sustained or incurred by any Buyer Indemnitee, as a result of or arising out of or by virtue of:

(a) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty made by Sellers or Seller Parties to Buyer herein or in any closing document delivered to Buyer in connection herewith;

(b) the breach by Sellers or Seller Parties of, or failure of Sellers or Seller Parties to comply with, any of the covenants or obligations under this Agreement or the Sellers Closing Documents to be performed by Sellers (including, without limitation, their obligations under this Article X);

(c) any Liability or obligation of Sellers other than the Assumed Liabilities, or any claim against Buyer with respect to any such Liability or alleged Liability other than the Assumed Liabilities; and/or

(d) any Taxes imposed upon or relating to one or more of the Sellers or the pre-Closing operation of the Business, except to the extent such Taxes are included in the determination of the Net Working Capital.

(a) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty made by Buyer or Parent to Sellers herein or in any closing document delivered to Sellers in connection herewith;

(b) the breach by Buyer or Parent of, or failure of Buyer or Parent to comply with, any of the covenants or obligations under this Agreement or Buyers Closing Documents to be performed by Buyer (including, without limitation, their obligations under this Article X);

(d) any Taxes imposed upon or relating to Buyer other than the Excluded Liabilities; or

(e) any liability or obligation of Buyer or Parent or arising out of Buyer’s operation of the Business after the Closing Date other than the Excluded Liabilities.

10.4 Payment. Any indemnification payment made by Sellers or Seller Parties to the Buyer Indemnitees to satisfy the amount of any Losses pursuant to Section 10.2 shall first be satisfied by the Escrow. Further, any indemnification payment made by Buyer, Sellers, or Seller Parties pursuant to this Article X will be deemed an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

10.5 Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants; Time Limitations; Indemnity Periods. No claim pursuant to this Article X may be asserted under this Agreement unless the Party making the claim gives the Party against whom the claim is to be made notice of such claim before the end of the applicable survival period (as hereinafter defined); provided, however, that such claim shall survive the expiration of the survival period if notice thereof, as required hereby, was previously given before the end of the applicable survival period. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in this Agreement made by Sellers, Seller Parties and Buyer respectively will survive the Closing: (x) with respect to each covenant of Sellers, Seller Parties and Buyer that, by its terms, has a specified termination or expiration date, until such termination or expiration date; (y) until thirty (30) days after the expiration of all applicable statutes of limitations (including all periods of extension, whether automatic or permissive) with respect to matters covered by Sections 5.1, 5.3, 5.8, 5.13, 5.14, 5.15(a), 5.20 and 5.21 (the “Sellers Fundamental Representations”) and/or 6.1, 6.2, 6.5 and 6.6; and (z) until December 31, 2013 in the case of all other representations and warranties, except that:

(a) in the event of intentional misrepresentation or fraud in the making of any representation or warranty, all representations, warranties, covenants and agreements that are the subject of the intentional misrepresentation or fraud, shall survive until thirty (30) days after the expiration of all applicable statutes of limitations (including all periods of extension, whether automatic or permissive) with respect to matters covered thereby; and

(b) rights to indemnification under this Article X will survive until any claims brought hereunder within the time periods set forth in this Section 10.5 shall have been satisfied or otherwise resolved as provided herein.

Further, in no event shall the indemnification obligations of the Seller Parties survive for a period in excess of four (4) years from the Closing Date.

10.6 Limitations on Amount of Liability.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 10.6(c), the Sellers or Seller Parties will have no Liability to the Buyer Indemnitees pursuant to Section 10.2 under, or in connection with, this Agreement, or in any closing document delivered to Buyer in connection herewith or any of the contemplated transactions relating thereto until the total of all Losses with respect to such claims exceeds Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000.00) (the “Deductible”), at which time the Sellers or Seller Parties shall be liable for all Losses, including the Deductible, subject to the provisions set forth in Section 10.6(b).

(b) Except as otherwise provided in Section 10.6(c), the maximum amount of Losses that the Sellers or Seller Parties shall, in the aggregate, be required to pay to the Buyer Indemnitees pursuant to Section 10.2 shall be equal to the sum of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) (the “Cap”)

(c) The limitations contained in Section 10.6(a) and Section 10.6(b) shall not apply to any indemnification claim made pursuant to Section 10.2 attributable to (i) a breach of any of the Sellers Fundamental Representations, (ii) claims based on intentional misrepresentation or fraud in the making of any representation or warranty committed by the Sellers or Seller Parties, or (iii) claims based upon Sections 10.2(b)-(d); provided, however, that the maximum amount of Losses that the Seller Parties shall, in the aggregate, be required to pay to the Buyer Indemnitees for any indemnification claim made pursuant to Section 10.2 attributable to (i) a breach of any of the Sellers Fundamental Representations, (ii) claims based on intentional misrepresentation or fraud in the making of any representation or warranty committed by the Sellers or Seller Parties or (iii) claims based upon Sections 10.2(b)-(d) shall not exceed the sum of Seven Million Dollars ($7,000,000.00).

10.7 Third-Party Claims.

(a) Promptly, but in no event less than fifteen (15) days, after receipt by a Party entitled to indemnity under Section 10.2 or Section 10.3 (an “Indemnified Party”) of notice of the assertion of a Third-Party Claim against it, such Indemnified Party shall give notice to the Party obligated to indemnify under such Section (an “Indemnifying Party”) of the assertion of such Third-Party Claim, provided that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any Liability that it may have to any Indemnified Party, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party demonstrates that the defense of such Third-Party Claim is materially prejudiced by the Indemnified Party’s failure to give such notice. All Parties agree to act reasonably and in good faith in response to any Third Party Claim. In the event that such Third Party Claim is made against one or more of the Sellers and the Sellers’ representative disputes that the third party is entitled to be paid the amount set forth in the Notice of Third Party Claim, the Sellers’ representative shall notify the Buyer of such dispute in writing within fifteen (15) days following receipt of the Notice of Third Party Claim. If the Sellers’ representative does not dispute the amount set forth in such Notice of Third Party Claim within said fifteen (15) day period, the Buyer may deliver from the Escrow Fund such amount in payment of the claim to the third party. In the event that the Sellers’ representative timely disputes the Third Party Claim, Buyer shall release from the Escrow Fund such sum and pay the Claim only if (x) such payment is agreed by the Sellers’ representative in writing, or (y) such payment is directed or permitted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(b) If an Indemnified Party gives notice to the Indemnifying Party of the assertion of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall, unless it involves Taxes, be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third-Party Claim and, to the extent that it wishes (unless (i) the Indemnifying Party is also a Party against whom the Third-Party Claim is made and the Indemnified Party determines in good faith that joint representation would be inappropriate or (ii) the Indemnifying Party fails to provide reasonable assurance to the Indemnified Party of its financial capacity to defend such Third-Party Claim and provide indemnification with respect to such Third-Party Claim), to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, which notice shall be required to be given within thirty (30) days after delivery of notice under Section 10.7(a) above. After notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not, so long as it diligently conducts such defense, be liable to the Indemnified Person under this Article X for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of such Third-Party Claim, in each case subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense of such Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third-Party Claim, (i) such assumption will conclusively establish, for purposes of this Agreement, that the claims made in that Third-Party Claim are within the scope of and subject to indemnification and (ii) no compromise or settlement of such Third-Party Claims may be effected by the Indemnifying Party without the Indemnified Party’s written consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld) unless (A) there is no finding or admission of any violation of law or any violation of the rights of any Person; (B) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnifying Party; and (C) the Indemnified Party shall have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of such Third-Party Claims effected without its consent. If notice is given to an Indemnifying Person of the assertion of any Third-Party Claim and the Indemnifying Person does not, within thirty (30) days after the Indemnified Party’s notice is given, give notice to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party will be bound by any determination made in such Third-Party Claim or any compromise or settlement effected by the Indemnified Party.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Indemnified Party determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a Third-Party Claim may adversely affect it other than as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party may, by notice to the Indemnifying Party, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise or settle such Third-Party Claim, but the Indemnifying Party will not be bound by any determination of any Third-Party Claim so defended for the purposes of this Agreement or any compromise or settlement effected without its written consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld).

(d) With respect to any Third-Party Claim subject to indemnification under this Article X: (i) both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, as the case may be, shall keep the other fully informed of the status of such Third-Party Claim and any related proceedings at all stages thereof where such Party is not represented by its own counsel and (ii) the Parties agree (each at its own expense) to render to each other such assistance as they may reasonably require of each other and to cooperate in good faith with each other in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense of any Third-Party Claim.

(e) With respect to any Third-Party Claim subject to indemnification under this Article X, the Parties agree to cooperate in such a manner as to preserve in full (to the extent possible) the confidentiality of all Confidential Information and the attorney-client and work-product privileges. In connection therewith, each Party agrees that: (i) it will use its best efforts, in respect of any Third-Party Claim in which it has assumed or participated in the defense, to avoid production of Confidential Information (consistent with applicable law and rules of procedure) and (ii) all communications between any Party hereto and counsel responsible for or participating in the defense of any Third-Party Claim shall, to the extent possible, be made so as to preserve any applicable attorney-client or work-product privilege.

10.8 Other Claims. A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a Third Party Claim may be asserted by notice in writing to the Party from whom indemnification is sought (a “Notice of Indemnity Claim”), stating, to the extent the information is readily available and with reasonable specificity, the nature and basis of such claim, including copies of relevant documentation. In the event a Party disputes that the other Party is entitled to be paid the amount set forth in the Notice of Indemnity Claim, such Party shall notify the other Party of such dispute in writing within fifteen (15) days following receipt of the Notice of Indemnity Claim. If the Party in receipt of a Notice of Indemnity Claim does not dispute the amount set forth in such Notice of Indemnity Claim within said fifteen (15) day period, such Party shall promptly pay the other Party. If the Party seeking indemnification is the Buyer, the Buyer shall be entitled to first release from the Escrow Fund the amount of the Indemnity Claim specified in the Notice of Indemnity Claim. In the event that the Sellers’ representative timely disputes the Indemnity Claim, Buyer shall release from the Escrow Fund such sum and pay the Indemnity Claim only if (x) such payment is agreed by the Sellers’ representative in writing, or (y) such payment is directed or permitted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

10.9 Reduction by Insurance Proceeds. The amount payable by an Indemnifying Party to an Indemnified Party with respect to Losses shall be reduced by the amount of any insurance proceeds received by the Indemnified Party with respect to the Losses, and each of the Parties hereby agrees to exercise commercially reasonable efforts to collect any and all insurance proceeds to which it may be entitled in respect of any such Losses. Notwithstanding the above, an Indemnified Party shall not be obligated to file an insurance claim with respect to any Loss(es).

10.10 Exclusive Remedy. The Parties agree that, excluding (a) any claim for injunctive or other equitable relief or (b) any claim related to fraud, willful misconduct or bad faith by any Party to this Agreement in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby, or (c) any claim for which a mechanism for resolution is specifically provided for elsewhere in this Agreement, the provisions of this Article X are the sole and exclusive remedy as to all claims any of the Parties may incur arising from or relating to this Agreement, the Disclosure Letter, all other closing documents relating to this Agreement or arising from or relating to the transactions contemplated herein or therein.
