The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that dollar values set forth on the Inventory Schedule and Obsolete Inventory Schedule are of no effect, are for information purposes only and are not determinative with respect to the Valuation.

(c) Not later than fifteen (15) days after the Effective Date, a roll-forward (the “Roll-Forward”) of the December Inventory (the “Roll-Forward Inventory”) and December Obsolete Inventory (“Roll-Forward Obsolete Inventory”) through the Effective Date will be performed by employees of Purchaser. The Roll-Forward will be performed in a manner consistent with the method utilized in preparing the Audited Financial Statements. A statement setting forth the December Inventory and December Obsolete Inventory, on a per company basis with respect to

each Seller (treating each Seller separately), based upon such Roll-Forward (the “Inventory Acknowledgment”), will be delivered by Purchaser to Seller not later than twenty (20) days after the Effective Date. Any disagreements with respect to such Roll-Forward shall be resolved under the procedures set forth in Section 2.2.3(a) hereinbelow by substituting in the appropriate place “Inventory Acknowledgment” for “Closing Statement”, “Sellers” for “Purchaser”, and “Purchaser” for “Sellers”, as applicable.

(d) Not later than fifteen (15) days after the Effective Date, a determination (the “Final Determination”) of the Obsolete Inventory (the “Final Obsolete Inventory”) on a per company basis (treating each Seller separately), and on an item by item basis, shall be performed by employees of Purchaser reflecting adjustments to the Obsolete Inventory Count to give effect to the Valuation and Roll Forward; provided, however, that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Final Obsolete Inventory shall be adjusted as follows: (i) items otherwise constituting Final Obsolete Inventory shall be removed from Final Obsolete Inventory to the extent that (A) each such item is a component part of any complete tool constituting Inventory on the Inventory Schedule (a “Component Part”), (B) each such item is, without material cost or effort by Purchaser, convertible into a Component Part or complete tool constituting Inventory on the Inventory Schedule, or (C) is, as of the Effective Date, part of a product under development by any Seller, or (ii) as may be agreed to in writing by Sellers and Purchaser from time to time. Any items deemed not to be part of the Final Obsolete Inventory in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence are hereby deemed to be Inventory for purposes of Section 2.1 and not for purposes of any other Section, including 2.2. The determination of material cost shall be made by Purchaser in its reasonable discretion, considering the cost of each such conversion relative to the total aggregate production cost of each applicable tool and the determination of effort shall be made by Purchaser, in its sole discretion, which shall be final conclusive and binding. A statement (the “Final Inventory Statement”) setting forth the Final Inventory and Final Obsolete Inventory will be delivered by Purchaser to Seller not later than twenty (20) days after the Effective Date. Any disagreements with respect to such Final Determination shall be resolved under the procedures set forth in Section 2.2.3(a) herein below by substituting in the appropriate place “Final Inventory Statement” for “Closing Statement”, “Sellers” for “Purchasers”, and “Purchasers” for “Sellers”, as applicable.

2.2.2.2 Closing Statement. (a) Attached hereto as Schedule 2.2.2.2 is a reference statement (the “Reference Statement”) setting forth certain itemized assets and liabilities as of July 31, 2006 with respect to each Seller and certain related information utilized in the determination of the Hy-Tech Net Asset Threshold and the Quality Net Asset Threshold. Such items as are set forth in the Reference Statement have been determined in accordance with GAAP and the past practices of the applicable Seller, except as agreed upon by the parties hereto as set forth on the Reference Statement.

(b) A statement setting forth, with respect to each Seller, such Seller’s Closing Net Assets (the “Closing Statement”) shall be prepared by Sellers based upon the results of the December Inventory Statement, the Roll-Forward as set forth in the Inventory Acknowledgment and the Books and Records of each Seller as of the Effective Date. The Closing Statement shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP, consistent with past-practice and on a basis consistent with the preparation of the Reference Statement, including giving effect to reasonable allowance for bad debts, reserves for inventory (including Obsolete Inventory), and assuming no change in

the reserve for inventory between December 31, 2006 and the Effective Date. The Closing Statement shall be prepared on a per company basis with respect to each Seller, treating each Seller separately so as to facilitate any adjustment of the allocation and apportionments set forth on Schedule 2.2.6 attached hereto, as described in Section 2.2.6 below. Sellers shall deliver to Purchaser the Closing Statement not later than thirty (30) days after the Effective Date. Any dispute between Purchaser and Sellers with regard to the Closing Statement shall be resolved pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.2.3. The Closing Statement shall set forth, as of the Effective Date, in reasonable detail, an itemized calculation of the Closing Net Assets of each Seller.

2.2.2.3 Purchase Price Adjustment. When the Closing Net Assets of each Seller are finally determined (including pursuant to Section 2.2.3, if applicable), the Purchase Price will be adjusted in the following manner:

(a) If the Closing Net Assets of Hy-Tech are greater than the Hy-Tech Net Asset Threshold, the Purchase Price will be increased by an amount equal to such excess, and Purchaser shall pay to Sellers such excess amount in accordance with Section 2.2.4.

(b) If the Closing Net Assets of Quality are greater than the Quality Net Asset Threshold, the Purchase Price will be increased by an amount equal to such excess, and Purchaser shall pay to Sellers such excess amount in accordance with Section 2.2.4.

(c) If the Closing Net Assets of Hy-Tech are less than the Hy-Tech Net Asset Threshold, the Purchase Price will be decreased by an amount equal to such difference, and Sellers shall pay to Purchaser such amount in accordance with Section 2.2.4.

(d) If the Closing Net Assets of Quality are less than the Quality Net Asset Threshold, the Purchase Price will be decreased by an amount equal to such difference, and Sellers shall pay to Purchaser such amount in accordance with Section 2.2.4.

Any adjustment of the Purchase Price pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall not be deemed to be an election of remedies by Purchaser, and any such adjustment shall be independent of any and all rights and remedies available to Purchaser under this Agreement (including in connection with the breach of any representations and warranties made herein), at law and/or in equity, and any and all such rights and remedies shall remain available to Purchaser notwithstanding any adjustment of the Purchase Price.

2.2.3 Disputes. (a) In the event that Purchaser disputes the Closing Statement in any respect, Purchaser shall so notify Sellers within thirty (30) days of its receipt of the Closing Statement (which notice shall specify in reasonable detail the disputed items). If the parties are unable to resolve such dispute within thirty (30) days thereafter, the items that remain in dispute (the “Disputed Items”) shall be submitted to an independent accounting firm that is mutually acceptable to Purchaser and Sellers (the “Independent Accountant”) for determination. In the event that the parties do not agree upon an Independent Accountant within fifteen (15) days of the date on which an Independent Accountant is initially proposed by one party to the other, the parties shall submit the matter to the American Arbitration Association for a determination of the Independent Accountant. In connection with its review, the Independent Accountant shall

(i) have the right to undertake such procedures as it may deem appropriate and examine all work papers utilized in connection with the preparation of the Closing Statement, and (ii) only make a determination as to the Disputed Items. Any such determination as to the Disputed Items shall be delivered on a per company basis with respect to each Seller, treating each Seller separately so as to facilitate any adjustment of the allocation and apportionments set forth on Schedule 2.2.6 attached hereto, as described in Section 2.2.6 below. The decision of the Independent Accountant as to the Disputed Items shall be final, conclusive and binding upon the parties, without any right of further appeal (absent manifest error). The expense of (A) the Independent Accountant, and (B) the submission to the American Arbitration Association (as set forth in this paragraph) shall be borne by Purchaser, on the one hand, and Sellers, on the other hand, in proportion to the relative differences between (x) the final position of the parties prior to submission of the matter to the Independent Accountant and (y) the determination of the Independent Accountant.

(b) Promptly following the delivery of the Closing Statement, Sellers shall make their Books and Records available to Purchaser on reasonable notice during normal business hours in order for Purchaser to verify the calculations of the amounts set forth in the Closing Statement.

2.2.4 Payment of Purchase Price. (a) The Purchase Price is being paid to Sellers as follows:

(i) Fifteen Million Eight Hundred Thousand ($15,800,000) Dollars (the “Cash Payment”) is being paid by wire transfer to an account or accounts designated by Sellers;

(ii) One Million One Hundred Thousand ($1,100,000) Dollars (the “Escrow Payment”) is being paid by Purchaser to National City Bank (the “Escrow Agent”), to be held and disbursed pursuant to the terms of that certain Escrow Agreement, of even date, among Purchaser, Robert H. Ober, Sellers, HTM, Daniel Berg, James J. Browne, James Hohman, Elizabeth Smail and the Escrow Agent (the “Escrow Agreement”);

(iii) an amount equal to the Assumed Payables will be paid by Purchaser’s assumption thereof; and

(iv) the Contingent Consideration and the Additional Contingent Consideration shall be paid in accordance with Section 2.2.5.

The amount payable pursuant to Section 2.2.2 (the “Adjustment Amount”) shall be payable within ten (10) days following the final determination of the amount thereof.

(i) In the event that the Adjustment Amount is payable to Purchaser, then Purchaser, at its option, shall have the right to require that either:

(A) Escrow Agent pay all or any portion of the Adjustment Amount to it from the amount held in escrow pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement; or

(B) Sellers pay all or any portion of the Adjustment Amount to it (whether such amount is in excess of the amount held in escrow or otherwise); or

(ii) In the event that the Adjustment Amount is payable to Sellers, then Purchaser shall pay the Adjustment Amount to Sellers by check made payable to the order of both Sellers.

2.2.5 Contingent Consideration.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.2.5, Purchaser shall pay to Sellers an amount (the “Contingent Consideration”) determined as follows:

2 x (the Contingent Consideration Factor x [{Purchaser EBITDA for the First 12-Month Period + Purchaser EBITDA for the Second 12-Month Period}

minus Base Year EBITDA])

(as each such term is hereinafter defined). For purposes of this Section 2.2.5(a), “Contingent Consideration Factor” shall mean fifty-five (55%) percent; Purchaser EBITDA shall mean the EBITDA of Purchaser for the period being measured; the “First 12-Month Period” shall mean the first of the two (2) consecutive twelve (12) month periods beginning on the Effective Date; the “Second 12-Month Period” shall mean the second of the two (2) consecutive twelve (12) month periods beginning on the Effective Date; and “Base Year EBITDA” shall mean an amount equal to Four Million Four Hundred Seventy-Three Thousand ($4,473,000) Dollars.

(b) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.2.5, Purchaser shall pay to Sellers additional contingent consideration (the “Additional Contingent Consideration”), which shall not, in any event, exceed One Million Nine Hundred Thousand ($1,900,000) Dollars in the aggregate (such amount, the “Full Additional Contingent Consideration”). Such Additional Contingent Consideration may consist of (1) the Full Additional Contingent Consideration, or (2) the Measurement Quarter Amount and/or the Supplemental Additional Contingent Consideration (as each such term is hereinafter defined), but in no event shall such Additional Contingent Consideration consist of (I) the Full Additional Contingent Consideration, and (II) the Measurement Quarter Amount and/or the Supplemental Additional Contingent Consideration. Such Additional Contingent Consideration shall only be due and payable as follows:

(i) In the event that (x) Purchaser shall deliver written notice to Sellers (the “Purchaser Certification”) that Chicago Pneumatic Tool Company, a New Jersey corporation (“Chicago Pneumatic”), has agreed to renew (and such agreement to renew has not been revoked prior to acceptance by Purchaser) that certain Exclusive Supply Agreement, dated November 8, 2006, between Chicago Pneumatic, for itself and on behalf of the CP Affiliates (as defined therein), and Hy-Tech (the “CP Agreement”), on terms which fully satisfy the CP Contingency (as hereinafter defined) in all respects, as determined by Purchaser in its sole and absolute discretion which shall be final, conclusive and binding (the “Purchaser CP Determination”); and (y) Purchaser EBITDA for the twelve-month period immediately preceding the second anniversary of the execution of this Agreement (“Earn Out EBITDA”), as the same may be adjusted as provided below, is greater than or equal to Base Year EBITDA (it being agreed that,

for purposes of the calculation of Earn Out EBITDA, the Renewal Pricing Terms (as hereinafter defined) will be used, to the extent applicable, to adjust Earn Out EBITDA, as determined by Purchaser in the exercise of its reasonable judgment), then Purchaser shall pay to Sellers the Full Additional Contingent Consideration, and Purchaser further agrees that it shall, if applicable, deliver to Sellers the Purchaser Certification within fifteen business days following a Purchaser CP Determination that the CP Contingency has been fully satisfied in all respects, and that Purchaser shall make the Purchaser CP Determination as to whether the CP Contingency has been fully satisfied in all respects not later than thirty (30) days following the date which is the second anniversary of the Effective Date; or

(ii) In the event that (A)(x) Purchaser does not deliver the Purchaser Certification to Seller, and (y) Purchaser EBITDA for any of the eight (8) successive calendar quarters subsequent to the second anniversary of the execution of this Agreement (each, a “Measurement Quarter”) is equal to or exceeds One Million One Hundred Eighteen Thousand Two Hundred Fifty ($1,118,250) Dollars (the “EBITDA Threshold”), then Purchaser shall pay to Sellers, with respect to any such Measurement Quarter in which the EBITDA Threshold is achieved, an amount equal to Two Hundred Thirty-Seven Thousand Five Hundred ($237,500) Dollars (any such payment, a “Measurement Quarter Payment”). Within thirty (30) days after the end of each Measurement Quarter, Purchaser shall deliver to Sellers a written report with respect thereto, together with details of the calculation of Purchaser EBITDA with respect thereto (collectively, the “Measurement Quarter Report”). With respect to any Measurement Quarter in which the EBITDA Threshold is achieved, such Measurement Quarter Report shall be delivered together with the applicable Measurement Quarter Payment. Each Seller hereby waives any right it may have to dispute each Measurement Quarter Report, and acknowledges and agrees that any such right would be redundant in light of the provisions of subparagraphs (d) and (e) of this Section 2.2.5. Any amounts paid to Sellers pursuant to this item (A) of this subparagraph (b)(ii) shall hereinafter be referred to in the aggregate as the “Measurement Quarter Amount”; or (B)(x) Purchaser does not deliver the Purchaser Certification to Seller, and (y) Purchaser EBITDA for the period beginning on the second anniversary of the execution of this Agreement and concluding on the date immediately preceding the fourth anniversary of the Effective Date (such two-year period, the “Subsequent Period”) is more than Eight Million One Hundred and Twenty-Eight Thousand ($8,128,000) Dollars (any such excess, the “EBITDA Excess”), then Purchaser shall pay to Sellers an amount equal to the EBITDA Excess multiplied by four and seven tenths (4.7); provided, however, that in no event shall the amount payable to Sellers pursuant to this item (B) of this subparagraph (b)(ii) (the “Supplemental Additional Contingent Consideration”) exceed an amount which is equal to the difference between the amount of the Full Additional Contingent Consideration and the Measurement Quarter Amount. In the event that the amounts paid by Purchaser to Sellers pursuant to the terms of item (A) of this subparagraph (b)(ii) exceed the aggregate amount due to Purchaser pursuant to item (B) of this subparagraph (b)(ii) (such excess, the “Refund Amount”), then, within fifteen days of receipt of written notice thereof from Purchaser (the “Refund Notice”), Sellers shall, and the Shareholders shall cause Sellers to, refund, by check payable to the order of Purchaser, such Refund Amount to Purchaser; provided, however, that in no event shall the Refund Notice be delivered to Sellers earlier than the delivery by Purchaser to Sellers of the Additional Contingent Consideration Report.

For purposes of this Section 2.2.5, (i) “CP Contingency” shall mean that Chicago Pneumatic shall have agreed to renew (and such agreement to renew shall not have been revoked prior to acceptance by Purchaser) the CP Agreement with Purchaser for at least a two-year period following the natural expiration date of the current CP Agreement, with provisions regarding termination of the CP Agreement no more materially favorable to Chicago Pneumatic than the comparable termination provisions in the current CP Agreement, and with no other provision more materially favorable to Chicago Pneumatic than the comparable provision in the current CP Agreement, all as determined by Purchaser in its sole and absolute discretion which shall be final, conclusive and binding; and (ii) ”Renewal Pricing Terms” shall mean (x) pricing terms set forth in, and (y) other terms (including with respect to freight) affecting net proceeds from the potential sale of products under, the renewal of the CP Agreement (if any).

(c) In determining Purchaser EBITDA: (i) Purchaser EBITDA shall be computed without regard to “extraordinary items” of gain or loss as that term shall be defined in GAAP; (ii) Purchaser EBITDA shall not include any gains, losses or profits realized from the sale of any assets other than in the ordinary course of business; and (iii) (x) the purchase and sales prices of goods and services sold to Purchaser by its Affiliates shall be adjusted to reflect the amounts that Purchaser would have paid if dealing with an independent party in an arm’s-length commercial transaction, and (y) the purchase and sales prices of goods and services sold to any Affiliate of Purchaser by Purchaser shall be adjusted to reflect the amounts that any such Affiliate of Purchaser would have paid if dealing with an independent party in an arm’s-length commercial transaction; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing provision of this Section 2.2.5(c) or any other provision of this Agreement, Sellers acknowledge and agree that there shall be no restriction or limitation upon Purchaser’s ability to enter into transactions of any nature or magnitude with its Affiliates, and Purchaser may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such transactions in its sole and absolute discretion which shall be final, conclusive and binding.

(d) For purposes of this Agreement, the Contingent Consideration and the Additional Contingent Consideration shall be initially determined by Purchaser. Purchaser shall make such determination of (i) the Contingent Consideration, if any, and deliver a written report thereof, together with details of the calculation (the “Contingent Consideration Report”) to Sellers not later than sixty (60) days following the end of the Second 12-Month Period (the “Contingent Consideration Report Due Date”), such Contingent Consideration Report to also set forth the calculation of Earn Out EBITDA; and (ii) the Additional Contingent Consideration, if any, and deliver a written report thereof, together with details of the calculation (the “Additional Contingent Consideration Report”) to Sellers not later than sixty (60) days following the end of the Subsequent Period (the “Additional Contingent Consideration Report Due Date”). Such Additional Contingent Consideration Report shall contain, among other things, sufficient information to allow the parties to determine the Refund Amount, if any.

(e) Sellers shall have sixty (60) days from their receipt of the Contingent Consideration Report, or the Additional Contingent Consideration Report, as the case may be, to object to Purchaser’s calculation of the Contingent Consideration or the Additional Contingent Consideration, as the case may be. In the event that, within such sixty (60) day period, Sellers provide a written objection to any such calculation, and such objection is not resolved by the parties within fifteen (15) days thereafter, all remaining disagreements with respect to such

calculation shall be resolved under the procedures set forth in Section 2.2.3(a) hereinabove by substituting in the appropriate place “Contingent Consideration Report” or “Additional Contingent Consideration Report”, as the case may be, for “Closing Statement”, “Sellers” for “Purchaser”, and “Purchaser” for “Sellers”, as applicable.

(f) Purchaser shall pay to Sellers, on a lump-sum basis, the Contingent Consideration (if any) and/or the Supplemental Additional Contingent Consideration (if any) determined pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.2.5 not later than thirty (30) days after the earlier to occur of (i) Purchaser’s receipt from Seller of a written acceptance of the Contingent Consideration Report or the Additional Contingent Consideration Report, as the case may be, affirming that Sellers have no objection thereto; (ii) the expiration of the sixty (60) day period during which Sellers may object to Purchaser’s calculation of the Contingent Consideration or the Additional Contingent Consideration, as the case may be, as set forth in clause (e) of this Section 2.2.5, without any such objection; (iii) settlement of any objection by Sellers to Purchaser’s calculation of the Contingent Consideration or the Additional Contingent Consideration, as the case may be; or (iv) the issuance of the decision of the Independent Accountant as to the Disputed Items; provided, however, that in no event shall Purchaser be required to pay to Sellers the Contingent Consideration or the Supplemental Additional Contingent Consideration, as the case may be, earlier than thirty (30) days after the Contingent Consideration Report Due Date or the Additional Contingent Consideration Report Due Date, as applicable. The payment of any amounts due to Sellers pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.2.5 shall be by check made payable to the order of both Sellers.

(g) In addition to any other legal remedies available to it under this Agreement or otherwise, Purchaser shall have the right to offset against and not pay to Sellers any Contingent Consideration and/or Additional Contingent Consideration (including any Measurement Quarter Payment and/or Supplemental Additional Contingent Consideration) on account of any amounts owing to Purchaser from Sellers, Shareholders and/or HTM as a result of the indemnification obligations set forth in Article VII hereof or otherwise; provided, however, that any amounts offset by Purchaser and not paid to Sellers pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.2.5(g) shall be promptly delivered by Purchaser to the escrow agent pursuant to the terms of an escrow agreement to be mutually agreed upon by the parties (on reasonable and customary terms and conditions and providing for customary interest to follow each such deposit), to be held and disbursed in accordance with such escrow agreement.

(h) Sellers acknowledge and agree that (i) upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Purchaser has the right to operate the Business in any way that Purchaser deems appropriate in Purchaser’s sole discretion, which shall be final, conclusive and binding, (ii) Purchaser has no obligation to operate the Business in order to achieve any Contingent Consideration and/or any Additional Contingent Consideration (including any Measurement Quarter Payment and/or any Supplemental Additional Contingent Consideration) or to maximize the amount of any Contingent Consideration and/or any Additional Contingent Consideration (including any Measurement Quarter Payment and/or any Supplemental Additional Contingent Consideration), (iii) Purchaser is under no obligation to manufacture or continue to manufacture the products and product line(s), and to provide the services, that had heretofore been manufactured and/or provided, as the case may be, by Hy-Tech and/or Quality, (iv) the Contingent Consideration and the Additional Contingent Consideration (including the

Measurement Quarter Payments and the Supplemental Additional Contingent Consideration) are speculative and are subject to numerous factors outside the control of Purchaser, (v) there is no assurance that Sellers will receive any Contingent Consideration and/or any Additional Contingent Consideration (including any Measurement Quarter Payment and/or any Supplemental Additional Contingent Consideration), and Purchaser has not promised nor projected any Contingent Consideration and/or any Additional Contingent Consideration (including any Measurement Quarter Payment and/or any Supplemental Additional Contingent Consideration), and (vi) the parties intend that solely the express provisions of this Agreement will govern their contractual relationship. Sellers acknowledge and agree that no Affiliate of Purchaser has any obligation to make any loan or contribute any capital to Purchaser.

2.2.6 Allocation of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall be allocated between Sellers and among the Assets acquired hereunder in accordance with Schedule 2.2.6 hereof and subject to the Purchase Price adjustment set forth in Section 2.2.2 hereof. In the event of any such Purchase Price adjustment, the allocation and apportionments set forth on Schedule 2.2.6 shall be adjusted accordingly on a per company basis with respect to each Seller, treating each Seller separately for purposes of any such adjustment. It is agreed that the allocation and apportionments set forth on Schedule 2.2.6 have been arrived at by arm’s length negotiation and properly reflect the respective fair market values of the Assets. Each of Purchaser and each Seller hereby covenants and agrees that it will not take a position on any income tax return (including Internal Revenue Service Form 8594), before any governmental agency charged with the collection of any income tax, or in any judicial proceeding that is in any way inconsistent with the terms of this Section 2.2.6 or Schedule 2.2.6. If any party receives notice that a taxing authority is challenging such allocation, the party receiving such notice shall promptly notify the other parties, and the parties shall cooperate in good faith in responding to such challenge in order to preserve the effectiveness of such allocation.

2.3 Assumption of Liabilities.

2.3.1 No Assumption of Liabilities. It is expressly understood and agreed that, except for the Assumed Obligations, in no event is Purchaser assuming or agreeing, nor shall Purchaser assume or agree, to pay or incur any Liability of HTM, any Seller or any Shareholder and/or any Liability in connection with the Business, the Real Properties and/or this Agreement (collectively, the “Retained Liabilities”), including the following:

(a) any Liability based on tortious or illegal conduct, regardless of when made or asserted, which arises out of or is based upon any express or implied representation, warranty, agreement or guarantee made by HTM and/or any Seller, or alleged to have been made by HTM and/or any Seller, or which is imposed or asserted to be imposed by operation of law, in connection with any service performed, property owned and/or product sold by or on behalf of HTM and/or any Seller, or any claim seeking recovery for consequential or special damage or lost revenue or income;

(c) result in the creation of any Lien upon any of the Assets, the Cranberry Property and/or the Punxsutawney Property;

3.30 Transactions with Directors, Officers and Affiliates. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.30 attached hereto, there have been no transactions between or among HTM, any Seller and any of its or their directors, officers, employees, stockholders or Affiliates.

(a) Each and all of the representations and warranties of HTM made in, under or in connection with the Cranberry Sale Agreement and the Punxsutawney Lease are hereby incorporated herein by reference as if set forth fully herein.

(b) Schedule 3.32 attached hereto sets forth a list of all leases, licenses, permits, subleases and occupancy agreements, together with all amendments and supplements

thereto, with respect to all real properties (including the Cranberry Property and the Punxsutawney Property) in which HTM and/or any Seller has a leasehold interest, whether as lessor or lessee (each, a “Lease” and collectively, the “Leases”; the property covered by Leases under which HTM or any Seller is a lessee is referred to herein as the “Leased Real Property”) and in which HTM and/or any Seller had a leasehold interest. HTM and each Seller has furnished true, correct and complete copies of all Leases to Purchaser or its representatives. No option has been exercised under any of such Leases, except options whose exercise has been evidenced by a written document, a true, complete and accurate copy of which has been delivered to Purchaser or its representatives with the corresponding Lease. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.32, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement do not require the consent or approval of the other party to the Leases, nor will such transactions violate any Lease or cause HTM and/or any Seller to be in default under any Lease.

No Seller or HTM or any other party to a Lease has given to any other party written notice of, or has made a claim with respect to, any breach or default. No Seller or HTM is in default under any Lease and, to the Knowledge of each Seller and HTM, no other party to a Lease is in default. There are no events which with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both would constitute a default by HTM and/or any Seller or, to the Knowledge of HTM and/or any Seller, by any other party to such Lease.

(d) None of the Leased Real Property is subject to any sublease, license or other agreement granting to any Person any right to the use, occupancy or enjoyment of such property or any portion thereof. No Seller or HTM has received any notice from any utility company or municipality of any fact or condition which could result in the discontinuation of presently available or otherwise necessary sewer, water, electric, gas, telephone or other utilities or services for any of the Leased Real Property. The Leased Real Property, all improvements thereon and thereto, and the operations therein conducted, conform to all applicable health, fire, insurance, environmental, safety, zoning and building laws, ordinances and administrative regulations, Permits and other regulations (including the Americans with Disabilities Act), except for possible nonconforming uses or violations that do not and will not interfere with the present use, operation or maintenance thereof as now used, operated or maintained or access thereto, and that do not and will not affect the value thereof, and that do not and will not give rise to any penalty, fine or other Liability, and no Seller or HTM has received any notice to the contrary. Each Leased Real Property is occupied and used by a Seller or HTM, as the case may be, in compliance with the Lease applicable thereto and pursuant to and in conformity with a validly issued certificate of occupancy which currently remains in effect.

(e) To the Knowledge of each Seller and HTM, (i) the plumbing, electrical, heating, air conditioning, elevator, ventilating and all other mechanical or structural systems for which any Seller and/or HTM is responsible under the Leases in the buildings or improvements are in good working order and condition and are fully useable for their intended purpose, and (ii) the roof, basement and foundation walls of such buildings and improvements for which any Seller and/or HTM is responsible under the Leases are in good condition and free of leaks and other defects. To the Knowledge of each Seller and HTM, all such mechanical and structural systems and such roofs, basement and foundation walls for which others are responsible under

said Leases are in good working order and condition and free of leaks and other defects. To the Knowledge of each Seller and HTM, there are no other physical defects or deferred maintenance items at any Leased Real Property that interfere with or impede the use of such property by any Seller and/or HTM in the ordinary course of its business or that any Seller and/or HTM is obligated under any of the Leases to repair or otherwise correct.

(f) There are no guaranties (from HTM, any Seller and/or from other Persons) in favor of the lessors of any of the Leased Real Property.

(g) No Seller or HTM has sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or encumbered all or any part of its leasehold interests in any of the Leased Real Property.

(h) Access from public streets and provision for parking and loading/unloading at each Leased Real Property conform to all applicable legal requirements and are adequate for the conduct of the Business in the normal course.

(i) Except as set forth on Schedule 3.32(i) attached hereto, to the Knowledge of each Seller and HTM, no Leased Real Property is subject to a fee mortgage, deed of trust, other security interest or similar encumbrance, nor to a ground lease or underlying lease.

(j) There is no pending, or, to the Knowledge of HTM and/or any Seller, threatened: (i) condemnation of any part of the Leased Real Property by any Body or other governmental entity; (ii) special assessment against any part of the Leased Real Property; or (iii) litigation against HTM and/or any Seller or any lessor for breach of any restrictive covenant affecting any part of the Leased Real Property.

3.33 Rebates. No customer of any Seller and/or HTM is, or will be, entitled to a Rebate based upon sales volume or otherwise for the calendar year during which the sale of the Assets occurs. No Rebates are due to any customer of any Seller or HTM for any period prior to the Effective Date.

3.34 Products Liability. (a) (i) There is no notice, demand, claim, action, suit, inquiry, hearing, proceeding, notice of violation or investigation of a civil, criminal or administrative nature before any court, Body or governmental or other regulatory or administrative agency, commission or authority, domestic or foreign, against or involving any products manufactured, produced, distributed or sold by or on behalf any Seller or HTM (including any parts or components) (collectively, “Products”), or class of claims or lawsuits involving the same or similar Product which is pending or, to the Knowledge of any Seller or HTM, threatened, resulting from an alleged defect in design, manufacture, materials or workmanship of any Product, or any alleged failure to warn, or from any breach of implied warranties or representations (collectively, “Product Liability Lawsuits”); (ii) to the Knowledge of each Seller and HTM, there has not been any Occurrence (as hereinafter defined); and (iii) there has not been, nor is there under consideration or investigation by any Seller or HTM, any Product rework or retrofit (collectively, “Retrofits”) conducted by or on behalf of any Seller or HTM.

(b) For purposes of this Section 3.33, the term “Occurrence” shall mean any accident, happening or event which takes place at any time which is caused or allegedly caused by any alleged hazard or alleged defect in manufacture, design, materials or workmanship including any

alleged failure to warn or any breach of express or implied warranties or representations with respect to, or any such accident, happening or event otherwise involving, any Product that is likely to result in a claim or loss.

3.35 Solvency. On the Effective Date and at all times during the six (6) months immediately preceding the Effective Date, each Seller and HTM is and has been paying all of its Liabilities accruing with respect to or resulting from the conduct of the Business, or in connection with the Real Properties, as the same shall become due and owing, and none of such payment obligations are past due or otherwise delinquent in any material respect. On and immediately after the Effective Date, each Seller and HTM (a) is and will be solvent (i.e., the sum of its debts will be less than all of its property, at a fair valuation), and (b) is and will be able to pay its current and anticipated debts as such debts mature. Each Seller and HTM is executing this Agreement in good faith, for fair value and without intent to hinder, delay or to defraud its present and future creditors.

3.36 Untrue or Omitted Facts. No representation, warranty or statement by HTM, any Seller and/or any Shareholder in this Agreement contains any untrue statement of a material fact, or omits to state a fact necessary in order to make such representations, warranties or statements not materially misleading. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, there is no fact Known to HTM, any Seller and/or any Shareholder that has had, or which may be reasonably expected to have, a materially adverse effect on any of the Assets or the Business, or with respect to the Real Properties, that has not been disclosed in this Agreement.

POST-CLOSING MATTERS

6.1 Warranty Obligations.

(a) Purchaser shall assume all ordinary course after-sales service and warranty obligations with respect to products manufactured and/or sold by each Seller on or prior to the Effective Date (the “Assumed Warranty Obligations”); provided, however, that in the event that the Aggregate Cost (as hereinafter defined) associated with the Assumed Warranty Obligations exceeds Twenty Thousand ($20,000) Dollars (the “Warranty Expense Cap”), Sellers shall pay to Purchaser, promptly, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after receipt by Sellers of written notice thereof from Purchaser, an amount equal to Purchaser’s cost for parts and labor (at the point and time of service) incurred in satisfying any Assumed Warranty Obligations in excess of such Warranty Expense Cap (such charges, in the aggregate, “Sellers’ Excess Warranty Obligations”). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the determination as to whether and to what extent there exists an Assumed Warranty Obligation with respect to any and all products shall in all circumstances be made by Purchaser, in its sole and absolute discretion, which shall be final, conclusive and binding. For purposes of this Section 6.1, “Aggregate Cost” means the aggregate value of all after-sales service and warranty services provided by Purchaser in connection with the Assumed Warranty Obligations, calculated at the rate of Purchaser’s standard charges for parts and labor at the point and time of service.

(b) Purchaser shall invoice Sellers monthly for any charges for parts and labor due from Sellers pursuant to the terms of subparagraph (a) of this Section 6.1, and Sellers shall pay such invoice within thirty (30) days after receipt. Any amounts due Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Section 6.1 that are not paid by Sellers when due shall bear interest at the Default Rate for each day from the date when such amounts were due until paid in full. The provisions of this Section 6.1 shall not relieve Sellers of their obligation of indemnity relating to or arising out of product liability claims with respect to products manufactured and/or sold by each Seller on or prior to the Effective Date pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of Article VII hereof.

6.2 Sellers’ Names. Sellers covenant and agree that, from and after the Effective Date, no Seller, Affiliate of any Seller, Shareholder or Affiliate of any Shareholder shall use, for any purpose whatsoever, the name (i) ”Hy-Tech Machine, Inc.” or any derivative or variation thereof (including any use of the words “Hy-Tech” or any derivative or variation thereof) and/or (ii) “Quality Gear & Machine, Inc.” or any derivative or variation thereof (including any use of the word “Quality” or any derivative or variation thereof)

6.3 Accounts Payable. Sellers shall pay, perform and discharge, as and when due, all Retained Liabilities, whether monetary or non-monetary, in accordance with their respective terms. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Sellers agree that any and all accounts payable as of the Effective Date that are not Assumed Payables shall be satisfied by Sellers following the consummation of the sale and purchase contemplated hereby in a timely manner.

6.4 Employee Benefits; W.A.R.N.

(a) Sellers shall be responsible for the payment of all wages, other remuneration and termination or severance amounts due to the employees of Sellers, provided, however, that Purchaser shall be responsible for the provision of health plan continuation coverage in accordance with the requirements of COBRA with respect to the employees of Sellers, who are as of the Effective Date, entitled to such COBRA coverage.

(b) No portion of the assets of any plan, fund, program or arrangement, written or unwritten, heretofore sponsored or maintained by any Seller (each, a “Plan”), including the Employee Benefit Plans (and no amount attributable to any such Plan), shall be transferred to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall not be required to continue any such Plan. The amounts payable on account of all benefit arrangements shall be determined with reference to the date of the event by reason of which such amounts become payable, without regard to conditions subsequent, and Purchaser shall not be liable for any claim for insurance, reimbursement or other benefits payable by reason of any event which occurs on or prior to the Effective Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, each Seller shall, promptly following the Effective Date, (i) terminate, in accordance with applicable law, any Plan sponsored or maintained by such Seller, and (ii) make all distributions, in accordance with applicable law, under any such Plan sponsored or maintained by such Seller.

(c) Sellers shall be responsible for all Liabilities under W.A.R.N. and each similar state law with respect to employees by reason of their severance or other termination of employment by any Seller on, prior to or following the Effective Date or the failure by Purchaser

to hire any such employees on or after the Effective Date (collectively, the “W.A.R.N. Liabilities”).

6.5 Accounts Receivable Put Option.

(a) At any time after the one hundred and twentieth (120th) day following the Effective Date (the “Record Date”), Purchaser may, but shall not be obligated to, notify Sellers in writing (the “A/R Put Notice”) as to which of the accounts receivable transferred to Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Agreement are outstanding as of the Record Date (the “Delinquent Receivables”), and the amount outstanding at the Record Date with respect to each of such Delinquent Receivables (the “Outstanding Amount”). Not later than the fifteenth (15th) day following receipt by each Seller of the A/R Put Notice, Sellers shall pay to Purchaser the Outstanding Amount with respect to each such Delinquent Receivable. Any amounts due Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Section 6.5 that are not paid by Sellers when due shall bear interest at the Default Rate for each day from the date when such amounts were due until paid in full.

(b) Upon receipt (the “Put Payment Date”) of payment in full from Sellers to Purchaser of the Outstanding Amount with respect to any Delinquent Receivable (the “Put Payment”), Purchaser shall assign all of its right, title and interest in and to such Delinquent Receivable to Sellers, and provide Sellers with written evidence of such assignment within ten (10) business days after Purchaser’s receipt of the Put Payment.

(c) Subsequent to Purchaser’s receipt of the Put Payment with respect to any Delinquent Receivable (a “Repurchased Delinquent Receivable”), as between Purchaser and Sellers, Sellers shall have the exclusive right to collect such Repurchased Delinquent Receivable. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement, any collection efforts by Sellers with respect to any such Repurchased Delinquent Receivable shall be conducted (i) in a commercially reasonable manner; (ii) in full compliance with all applicable laws and regulations; and (iii) in a manner that is not, or is not reasonably likely to have the effect of being, injurious to any business relationship between any account debtor and Purchaser, whether now existing or hereafter arising. Any such collection efforts by Sellers shall be subject in all respects to the reasonable supervision of Purchaser. In the event that Purchaser receives any payment from an account debtor subsequent to the Record Date with respect to any such Repurchased Delinquent Receivable, Purchaser shall deliver same to Sellers not later than the later of (i) ten (10) business days after Purchaser’s receipt thereof, and (ii) ten (10) business days after the Put Payment Date with respect to such Repurchased Delinquent Receivable.

6.6 Obsolete Inventory.

(a) Within ninety (90) days following the Effective Date, a committee (the “Obsolete Inventory Committee”), consisting of Robert H. Ober, Elizabeth Smail, Bart Swank and Ray Keegan, shall deliver to the Purchaser a written work plan (the “Initial Determination”) which shall set forth, as to each item of the Final Obsolete Inventory, whether such item shall (i) be disposed of (any such disposal to take place at such times and in such manner as the Obsolete Inventory Committee shall determine, in its sole and absolute discretion, which shall, subject to the provisions of subparagraph (c) hereof, be final, conclusive and binding), or (ii) be integrated

into Purchaser’s inventory and be available for sale by Purchaser. In the event that Purchaser sells any of the Final Obsolete Inventory (at such prices and on such terms and conditions as Purchaser shall determine, in its sole and absolute discretion, which shall be final, conclusive and binding), the Obsolete Inventory Sales Commission (as hereinafter defined) less Return Amounts (as hereinafter defined) related to any items of Final Obsolete Inventory, whenever returned (whether concurrently with, prior to or subsequent to any such sale of Final Obsolete Inventory), shall be payable to Sellers. In the event that, after deduction of any Return Amounts, any such Obsolete Inventory Sales Commission is due to Sellers, Purchaser shall pay such Obsolete Inventory Sales Commission to Sellers by check made payable to the order of both Sellers within sixty (60) days after receipt by Purchaser of payment for any Final Obsolete Inventory sold by Purchaser. For purposes of this Section 6.6, the “Obsolete Inventory Sales Commission” shall be an amount that is equal to twenty (20%) percent of the net proceeds from the sale of each item of Final Obsolete Inventory, less any applicable discounts and allowances; and “Return Amounts” shall mean (A) the amount refunded or to be refunded to any purchaser of any items of Final Obsolete Inventory resulting from the return of any such items to Purchaser within two (2) years of the date of delivery of any such items to the purchaser thereof; together with (B) any and all shipping and/or other out-of-pocket costs and expenses paid or to be paid by Purchaser related to or in connection with any such returned Final Obsolete Inventory. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, to the extent that any Return Amounts have not been deducted (“Non-Deducted Amounts”) by Purchaser from any Obsolete Inventory Sales Commission otherwise due to Sellers, Sellers shall pay any such Non-Deducted Amounts to Purchaser promptly following demand by Purchaser, and Purchaser shall have the right to withhold from and offset against any amounts due to any Seller and/or HTM, pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, the amount of any such Non-Deducted Amounts not promptly paid by Sellers to Purchaser.

(b) At the request of Purchaser, at any time subsequent to the Initial Determination, the Obsolete Inventory Committee shall meet and determine whether, and to what extent, any remaining Final Obsolete Inventory shall be removed from Purchaser’s inventory and shall be disposed of pursuant to the terms of subparagraph (a) of this paragraph 6.6.

(c) In the event that any of the members of the Obsolete Inventory Committee are unable to serve on the Committee, either Sellers, in the case of Mr. Ober and/or Ms. Smail, and/or Purchaser, in the case of Mr. Swank and/or Mr. Keegan, as the case may be, shall designate a replacement(s) to serve on the Obsolete Inventory Committee. Each of the four members of the Obsolete Inventory Committee shall have one vote on matters to be decided by the Obsolete Inventory Committee pursuant to the terms of this Section 6.6. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 6.6 or elsewhere in this Agreement, in the event that, at any point in time, with respect to any such decision, the votes of the members of the Obsolete Inventory Committee are equally divided, the matter shall be referred for decision to Joseph A. Molino, Jr. (or any other person designated by Purchaser in his stead), whose decision as to such matter shall be final, conclusive and binding on all parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 6.6 or elsewhere in this Agreement, Mr. Molino (or any other person designated by Purchaser in his stead) shall at all times and with respect to all matters have the authority to override any action of the Obsolete Inventory Committee, or to act in place of the Obsolete Inventory Committee, in the sole and absolute discretion of Mr. Molino

(or any other person designated by Purchaser in his stead) which shall be final, conclusive and binding.

6.7 Insurance. Each Seller shall, at its own expense, secure and at all times maintain, with financially sound and reputable companies, products liability insurance for two (2) years from the Effective Date to protect Purchaser from Product Liability Lawsuits that may arise before or after the Effective Date. Throughout said three-year period of time, such policies shall be in such form and in such amounts and coverage as would be deemed prudent by companies engaged in the same or similar businesses as the parties hereto (but in no event less than One Million ($1,000,000.00) Dollars per occurrence; Two Million ($2,000,000) Dollars in the aggregate), and shall name Purchaser as an additional named insured. Upon failure of any Seller to procure, maintain and pay all premiums therefor, Purchaser may, at its option, do so, and Sellers agree to pay the cost thereof to Purchaser promptly upon the receipt of a written request therefor from Purchaser. Each Seller shall cause to be included in all such insurance policies a provision to the effect that the same will be noncancellable, not permitted to lapse and not subject to change except upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Purchaser. Each Seller shall, contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and from time to time thereafter, and promptly upon the request therefor by Purchaser, provide to Purchaser an insurance endorsement confirming that such policies are in effect. Any renewals, replacements or endorsements thereto shall also be delivered to Purchaser in a timely manner, and promptly upon the request therefor by Purchaser.

6.8 Phone and Fax Numbers. Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to transfer to Purchaser the phone and fax numbers identified on Schedule 3.11(b) attached hereto. Purchaser hereby assumes and agrees to pay, perform and discharge, as and when due, those Liabilities of each Seller relative to the above-mentioned phone and fax numbers accruing after the Effective Date.

6.9 Dissolution. Each Seller covenants and agrees that it shall not dissolve or otherwise terminate its corporate existence on a date which is prior to the third anniversary of the Effective Date.

6.10 Environmental Compliance Matters. Within ninety (90) days after the Effective Date, each Seller shall, at its sole cost and expense, complete all tasks and obtain all approvals, in a manner reasonably acceptable to Purchaser, identified in the November 10, 2006 Proposal from Environmental Resources Management, Inc. addressed to Robert Ober and referencing the Project, “Compliance Assistance and Program Development for Cranberry and Punxsutawney Locations.” Each Seller also shall reasonably in advance of each submission to allow time for Purchaser to review and comment provide Purchaser with a copy of all submissions to regulatory agencies.

6.11 Capital Expenditures. Purchaser shall make capital equipment expenditures if requested by Robert Ober during the first nine (9) months of 2007 in an aggregate amount not to exceed Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($750,000), inclusive of (i) that certain Purchase Order No. 92863, dated November 30, 2006, from Hy-Tech to Morris Tristate for two (2) Okuma MA-400HA Machines, in the aggregate amount of $539,000, and (ii) that certain Purchase Order No. 95832, dated December 28, 2006, from Hy-Tech to Mastech Metrology

Services for a Digital Electronic Micro-Hite Gage and accessories, a Digital Optical Compator and accessories, and a group of eight-hole gages, in the aggregate amount of $27,669.13.

6.12 Further Assurances. On and after the Effective Date, (a) upon the request of Purchaser, each Seller and/or Shareholder shall take or cause to be taken all such further actions and execute, acknowledge and deliver all such further instruments and documents as may be necessary or desirable to convey and transfer to, and vest in, Purchaser, and to protect Purchaser’s right, title and interest in and to, and enjoyment of, the Assets intended to be assigned, transferred, conveyed and delivered pursuant to this Agreement and the related agreements and documents executed in connection herewith, and (b) the parties shall take all such further actions and execute and deliver all such further instruments and documents as may be necessary or appropriate to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the related agreements and documents executed in connection herewith (including the remittance to Purchaser of any payments received by Sellers in connection with the Business or the Assets).

6.13 Power of Attorney. Without limitation of any provision of this Agreement, effective upon the Effective Date, each Seller constitutes and appoints Purchaser and its successors and assigns, and each of them, as its true and lawful attorney, with full power of substitution, in their own names or in the name of any Seller, but for their own benefit and at their own expense, (i) to institute and prosecute all proceedings which any of them may deem proper in order to collect, assert or enforce any claim, right or title of any kind in or to the Assets transferred or intended to be transferred to Purchaser hereunder, and to do all such acts and things in relation thereto as any of them shall deem advisable, and (ii) to take all actions which they may deem proper in order to provide for them the benefits under any claims, Contracts, Permits, Certifications, sales orders, or other documents or instruments transferred or intended to be transferred to Purchaser hereunder. Each Seller acknowledges that the foregoing powers are coupled with an interest and are not revocable in any manner or for any reason.

ARTICLE VII

SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS; INDEMNIFICATION; JOINT & SEVERAL OBLIGATIONS

7.1 Survival. The representations and warranties contained in this Agreement shall survive for a period of twenty-four (24) months from the Effective Date; provided, however, that the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.10, 3.12, 3.21 and 3.24 shall survive until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations periods, and those set forth in Sections 3.1 through 3.5, 3.17 (first two (2) sentences), and 3.26 shall survive for an indefinite period. Any claim relating to any such representation or warranty shall continue after the expiration of the applicable survival period until such claim is resolved and satisfied if the party entitled to such indemnification has provided a Claim Notice to the party required to provide such indemnification prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period.

7.2 Indemnification.

7.2.1 General Indemnification Obligation of Sellers, HTM and Shareholders. From and after the Effective Date, each Seller, HTM and each Shareholder, jointly and severally, shall reimburse, indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser and its directors, officers, employees, shareholders, successors and assigns (each, an “Indemnified Purchaser Party”) against and in respect of any and all Actions and Liabilities (collectively, “Losses”), incurred or suffered by any Indemnified Purchaser Party that result from, relate to or arise out of:

(a) any and all Retained Liabilities, including the following:

(i) any and all Liabilities of HTM and/or any Seller of any kind, nature and description whatsoever, known or unknown, fixed or contingent, inchoate or otherwise, that either (A) are existing on the Effective Date (other than the Assumed Obligations) or (B) arise out of, or result from or relate to, any transaction entered into, or any state of facts existing, prior to or at the Effective Date;

(ii) any and all claims that relate to the Assets, the Real Properties and/or the Business in which the principal event giving rise thereto occurred on or prior to the Effective Date or which result from or arise out of any action or inaction on or prior to the Effective Date of or by HTM and/or any Seller, or any director, officer, employee, shareholder, agent or representative of HTM and/or any Seller, including any Shareholder; and

(iii) any and all Liabilities relating to or arising out of product liability or similar claims by Persons with respect to products manufactured and/or sold by HTM and/or any Seller on or prior to the Effective Date;

(b) any and all Liabilities under or relating to Environmental Laws, arising out of the operation of the Business or the ownership or operation of real property, including the Real Properties, on or prior to the Effective Date;

(c) the W.A.R.N. Liabilities;

(d) any misrepresentation or breach of warranty on the part of HTM, any Seller and/or any Shareholder under this Agreement and/or under any of the Additional Transaction Documents;

(e) any nonfulfillment of any agreement or covenant on the part of HTM, any Seller and/or any Shareholder under this Agreement and/or under any of the Additional Transaction Documents;

(f) the matters set forth on Schedules 3.9, 3.12(a), 3.12(b) and 3.16 attached hereto; and

(g) the failure by HTM and/or any Seller to obtain any and all consents to the assignment to Purchaser of the rights of any such Seller and/or HTM under any Contract, Permit or other Asset to be assigned to Purchaser hereunder, including the Listed Agreements.

7.2.2 General Indemnification Obligation of Purchaser. From and after the Effective Date, Purchaser will reimburse, indemnify and hold harmless HTM, Sellers and their directors, officers, employees, shareholders, successors and assigns (each, an “Indemnified Seller Party”) against and in respect of any and all Losses incurred or suffered by any Indemnified Seller Party that result from, relate to or arise out of:

(a) the Assumed Obligations;

(b) any and all claims against any Indemnified Seller Party that relate to the Assets or the Business in which the principal event giving rise thereto occurred after the Effective Date or which result from or arise out of any action or inaction after the Effective Date of Purchaser or any director, officer, employee, shareholder, agent or representative of Purchaser;

(c) any and all Liabilities relating to or arising out of product liability or similar claims by Persons with respect to products manufactured and sold by Purchaser after the Effective Date;

(d) any misrepresentation or breach of warranty on the part of Purchaser under this Agreement; and

(e) any nonfulfillment of any agreement or covenant on the part of Purchaser under this Agreement.

7.2.3 Method of Asserting Claims.

(a) In the event that any Action, claim or demand (collectively, “Claim”) for which HTM, any Seller and/or any Shareholder would be liable to an Indemnified Purchaser Party hereunder is asserted against or sought to be collected from an Indemnified Purchaser Party by a third party, the Indemnified Purchaser Party shall notify Sellers of such Claim, specifying the nature of the Claim and the amount or the estimated amount thereof to the extent then feasible (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of the Claim) (the “Claim Notice”). HTM and Sellers shall thereupon, at their sole cost and expense, assume the control of the defense, settlement or compromise of the Claim against the Indemnified Purchaser Party with counsel of their choosing that is reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Purchaser Party. The failure to timely give a Claim Notice shall not relieve HTM, any Seller and/or any Shareholder of its or his obligations hereunder, except and only to the extent that such failure shall result in any material prejudice to the indemnifying party in defense of the Claim.

(b) None of HTM, any Seller any Shareholder shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Purchaser Party, consent to the entry of any judgment against the Indemnified Purchaser Party or enter into any settlement or compromise which does not include, as an unconditional term thereof (i.e., there being no requirement that the Indemnified Purchaser Party pay any amount of money or give any other consideration), the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnified Purchaser Party of a release, in form and substance satisfactory to the Indemnified Purchaser Party, from all Liability in respect of the Claim. If any Indemnified Purchaser Party desires to participate in, but not control, any such defense or settlement, it may do so at its sole cost and expense. If, in the reasonable opinion of the Indemnified Purchaser

Party, (i) the use of counsel chosen by HTM and Sellers would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, or (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the Indemnified Purchaser Party and HTM, any Seller and/or any Shareholder, and the Indemnified Purchaser Party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it which are different from or in addition to those available to HTM, any such Seller and/or Shareholder, or (iii) any Claim, or the litigation or resolution of any Claim, involves an issue or matter which could reasonably have a materially adverse effect on the business, operations, assets, properties or prospects of the Indemnified Purchaser Party or its Affiliates, then, in each case, the Indemnified Purchaser Party shall have the right to control the defense or settlement of any such claim or demand, and its costs and expenses shall be included as part of the indemnification obligation of HTM, Sellers and Shareholders hereunder; provided, however, that the Indemnified Purchaser Party shall not settle any such Claim without the prior written consent of Sellers, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If the Indemnified Purchaser Party should elect to exercise such right, Sellers shall have the right to participate in, but not control, the defense or settlement of such Claim at their sole cost and expense.

(c) In the event an Indemnified Purchaser Party should have a claim against HTM, any Seller and/or any Shareholder hereunder that does not involve a Claim being asserted against or sought to be collected from it by a third party, the Indemnified Purchaser Party shall send a Claim Notice with respect to such Claim to HTM, Sellers and Shareholders.

(d) All claims for indemnification by an Indemnified Seller Party under this Agreement shall be asserted and resolved under the procedures set forth hereinabove by substituting in the appropriate place “Indemnified Seller Party” for “Indemnified Purchaser Party” and variations thereof, “Purchaser” for “Sellers” and variations thereof (including “HTM, Sellers and Shareholders” and “HTM, Sellers and/or Shareholders”), and “Purchaser” for “indemnifying party”, as applicable.

7.3 Limitation on Indemnification.

(a) In no event shall HTM, Sellers or any Shareholder have any Liability for indemnification under Section 7.2.1(d) until the total of all (i) Losses with respect to such otherwise indemnifiable matters; and (ii) Sellers’ Excess Warranty Obligations, exceeds one hundred thousand ($100,000) Dollars (the “Sellers’ Indemnification Threshold”), except that, at such time as the Sellers’ Indemnification Threshold is exceeded, the indemnifying party shall be liable for each dollar of Loss commencing with and including the first dollar of Loss.

(b) In no event shall Purchaser have any Liability for indemnification under Section 7.2.2(d) until the total of all Losses with respect to such otherwise indemnifiable matters exceeds one hundred thousand ($100,000) Dollars (the “Purchaser Indemnification Threshold”), except that, at such time as the Purchaser Indemnification Threshold is exceeded, the Purchaser shall be liable for each dollar of Loss commencing with and including the first dollar of Loss.

(c) For purposes of determining whether the Sellers’ Indemnification Threshold or the Purchaser Indemnification Threshold, as the case may be, has been exceeded,

all “materiality” qualifiers in any representation or warranty in this Agreement shall be disregarded.

(d) In no event shall Purchaser, HTM, Sellers or any Shareholder have any Liability for indemnification under Section 7.2.1(d) or Section 7.2.2(d), respectively, in excess of the Purchase Price plus Two Million Two Hundred Thousand ($2,200,000) Dollars (the “General Maximum Limitation”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Sellers’ Indemnification Threshold, the Purchaser Indemnification Threshold and the General Maximum Limitation shall not apply to (i) claims for Losses relating to a breach of the representations and warranties of Sellers and Shareholders set forth in Sections 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, 3.17, 3.21 and/or 3.24 hereof, (ii) claims for Losses relating to the Retained Liabilities, including claims for Losses under or in connection with Sections 7.2.1(a)(i), 7.2.1(a)(ii), and/or 7.2.1(a) (iii), (iii) claims for Losses relating to a breach of any representation or warranty that was actually known by Purchaser, any Seller or any Shareholder to be false when made or for fraud of Purchaser, any Seller or any Shareholder, (iv) any amounts calculated pursuant to Sections 2.2.2 or 2.2.3 hereof, (v) any amounts due Purchaser under or in connection with Section 6.5 hereof; (vi) claims in connection with warranty obligations; (vii) claims for Losses incurred or suffered by any Indemnified Purchaser Party that result from, relate to or arise out of the matters set forth in Section 7.2.1(g); and/or (viii) any amounts paid pursuant to the terms of Section 8.3 hereof.

7.4 Payment; Right of Setoff. Upon the determination of the Liability under this Article VII, the appropriate party shall pay to the other, within ten (10) days after such determination, the amount of any claim for indemnification made hereunder. Further, pending final determination of any Claims in accordance with the provisions of this Article VII, Purchaser shall have the right to withhold from and offset against any amounts due to any Seller and/or HTM, pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, the amount of such Claims.

7.5 Escrow. In the event that a Claim Notice is sent pursuant to this Article VII prior to the release to Sellers and/or Purchaser of all funds held pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, the amount of the Claim shall be withheld by the Escrow Agent from any amounts otherwise deliverable to the indemnifying party until the Claim is resolved and then shall be delivered only in a manner consistent with such resolution.

7.6 Other Rights and Remedies Not Affected. The indemnification rights of the parties under this Article VII are independent of and in addition to such rights and remedies as the parties may have at law or in equity or otherwise for any misrepresentation, breach of warranty or failure to fulfill any agreement or covenant hereunder on the part of any party hereto, including the right to seek specific performance, rescission or restitution, none of which rights or remedies shall be affected or diminished hereby.

7.7 Joint and Several Obligations of Sellers, Shareholders and HTM. All representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made by each Seller, each Shareholder, HTM and/or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing in this Agreement and/or in any Additional Transaction Document shall be, and hereby are, deemed to be made jointly and severally by Sellers, Shareholders and HTM and to be subject to the terms hereof.

ARTICLE VIII

8.2 Publicity; Confidentiality. (a) None of the parties hereto will issue or make any report, statement or release pertaining to the matters contemplated by, or otherwise disclose any of the terms or existence of, or transactions contemplated by, this Agreement to any Person without the prior written consent of Sellers and Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Seller and Purchaser may disclose the terms of this Agreement (i) to such of its officers, directors, employees and agents, including its counsel and accountants, who it determines have a need to know, and (ii) as required by law or by the rules of any securities exchange or association on which the securities of such party are listed or included for trading.

Sellers and Purchaser shall cooperate in making in a timely manner all filings, returns, reports and forms as may be required to comply with the foregoing.

8.4 Equitable Relief. The parties acknowledge and agree that, in the event any party shall violate or threaten to violate any of the restrictions of Section 8.2, the aggrieved party will be without an adequate remedy at law and will, therefore, be entitled to enforce such restrictions by preliminary, temporary or permanent injunctive or mandatory relief in any court of competent jurisdiction without the necessity of proving damages, without the necessity of posting any bond or other security, and without prejudice to any other remedies which it may have at law or in equity.

8.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the schedules attached hereto, which are a part hereof, constitutes the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

No waiver by any party of the breach of any term, covenant, representation or warranty contained in this Agreement shall release or affect any Liability resulting from such breach, and no waiver of any nature, whether by conduct or otherwise, in any one or more instances, shall be

deemed to be or construed as a further or continuing waiver of any such condition or of any breach of any other term, covenant, representation or warranty contained in this Agreement.
