(b) Subsequent Payment. On the six (6) month, twelve (12) month, eighteen (18) month and twenty-four (24) month anniversary of the Closing Date (each, an “Anniversary Date”), Parent shall pay the applicable portion of the Subsequent Payment in accordance with Section 1.4(b)(i), such payment to be made in either unregistered shares of Parent Stock or immediately available funds (subject to any amounts withheld pursuant to Section 1.5), as applicable, and allocated to each Stockholder in accordance with the Aggregate Consideration Spreadsheet.

The Subsequent Payment shall consist of at least 6,245,000 unregistered shares of Parent Stock; provided, however, if the value of such shares of Parent Stock based on the Average Closing Price as of the Closing Date is less than the Subsequent Payment, additional consideration consisting of immediately available funds and/or additional unregistered shares of Parent Stock (such shares of Parent Stock shall be valued based on the Average Closing Price as of the Closing Date), as elected by Parent in its sole and absolute discretion, shall be issued and/or paid to the Stockholders, such that the value of the total consideration received by the Stockholders pursuant to this Section 1.4(b)(i) is equal to the Subsequent Payment. The shares of Parent Stock to be issued in respect of the Subsequent Payment shall be reduced by the Escrow Shares, which shall be deposited by Parent into Escrow and released in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement.

(ii) The Subsequent Payment is deemed fully earned on the Closing Date in consideration of the Merger, and Parent is obligated to pay and deliver the same on the respective due dates thereof subject to no conditions, offsets, counterclaims or deductions whatsoever (except to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement).

(iii) With respect to any portion of the Subsequent Payment paid in unregistered shares of Parent Stock, the aggregate number of shares to be issued for such Subsequent Payment shall be calculated by dividing the amount of the relevant Subsequent Payment (or any portion thereof) by the Average Closing Price as of the Determination Date specified in Section 1.4(b)(i). The aggregate number of unregistered shares of Parent Stock issuable to the Stockholders pursuant to Section 1.4(b) is hereinafter referred to as the “Subsequent Payment Shares.”

(iv) If the Stockholders elect to sell a material portion of the Subsequent Payment Shares (including any Escrow Shares) at any time within one year after the issuance of such shares, the Stockholders shall use good faith efforts to coordinate such sale of Subsequent Payment Shares with Parent in a manner such that any market transactions are orderly.

-11-

(v) If Parent at any time subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Parent Stock into a greater number of shares, the amount of the Subsequent Payment Shares not yet issued immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately increased, and if Parent at any time combines (by reverse stock split, recapitalization or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Parent Stock into a smaller number of shares, the amount of Subsequent Payment Shares not yet issued immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately decreased; provided, however, that no such adjustments shall be made to the extent that number of Subsequent Payment Shares the unissued has not been determined by valuation in accordance with Section 1.4(b)(i).

(vi) In the event that a Parent Company sale occurs prior to any of the Subsequent Payment due dates, all Subsequent Payments shall be accelerated immediately prior to the closing of such Parent Company Sale.

(c) Earn-Out. The Stockholders are eligible to receive additional consideration (the “Earn-Out Payments”) as set forth in this Section 1.4(c). Parent shall pay all or any portion of each Earn-Out Payment in immediately available funds or unregistered shares of Parent Stock or any combination thereof, as elected by Parent in its sole and absolute discretion, as determined in accordance with this Section 1.4(c). The Earn-Out Payments shall be allocated to each Stockholder in accordance with the Aggregate Consideration Spreadsheet.

(ii) If during the Second Earn-Out Period, the total Sales Revenue equals or exceeds $63,500,000 (the “2015 Sales Revenue Target”) and the EBITDA of the Company Group equals or exceeds $7,620,000 for the Second Earn-Out Period, (the “Second Earn-Out Period EBITDA Target”) the Parent shall issue unregistered shares of Parent Stock and/or pay to the Stockholders cash consideration equal to $5,000,000.

(iii) If the Sales Revenue for the First Earn-Out Period equals (A) at least ninety percent (90%) but less than one hundred percent (100%) of the 2014 Sales Revenue Target and the First Earn-Out Period EBITDA Target has been achieved, Parent shall issue unregistered shares of Parent Stock and/or pay to the Stockholders consideration equal to $4,500,000; or (B) one hundred and ten percent (110%) or more of the 2014 Sales Revenue Target and the First Earn-Out Period EBITDA Target has been achieved, Parent shall issue unregistered shares of Parent Stock and/or pay to the Stockholders consideration equal to $5,500,000 (inclusive of the payment set forth in Section 1.4(c)(i) above; in other words, the Stockholders shall receive an additional $500,000 of consideration).

-12-

(iv) If Parent elects to pay all or any portion of any Earn-Out Payment in unregistered shares of Parent Stock, the aggregate number of shares to be issued for such Earn-Out Payment shall be calculated by dividing the amount of the relevant Earn-Out Payment (or any portion thereof) by the Average Closing Price as of the applicable Earn-Out Statement Finalization Date. The aggregate number of shares of unregistered Parent Stock issuable to the Stockholders pursuant to Section 1.4(c) is hereinafter referred to as the “Earn-Out Shares.”

(v) Parent covenants and agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to operate, and to cause the Company Group to operate, the Business of the Company Group during each of the Earn-Out Periods in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices, with such modifications as Parent deems necessary to address then-existing market and business conditions. Parent shall not take any action during the Earn-Out Period that is intended to prohibit or otherwise limit the ability of the Stockholders to earn the Earn-Out Payments. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the accounting principles, practices, policies and methodologies used in the preparation of the Company Group’s 2013 audited financial statements shall be applied in determining Sales Revenue and EBITDA during the respective Earn-Out Periods, and Parent shall not charge or allocate to the Company Group management or service fees, or overhead expenses payable to Parent or its other Affiliates, unless otherwise discussed and agreed to by the parties, or otherwise impose expenses unusual as to character and amount that are inconsistent with past practices. Parent shall apply accounting principles, practices, policies and methodologies for matters such as reserves for slow-moving or obsolete inventory or for doubtful accounts consistently with the Company Group’s audited 2013 financial statements. Normalizing adjustments to Sales Revenue or EBITDA, as the case may be, shall be the Stockholders’ remedy for violations of this Section 1.4(c)(v).

(vi) The determination of the amount of Sales Revenue, the EBITDA of the Company Group and the Earn-Out Payments (including the number of Earn-Out Shares issuable, if applicable) made under this Section 1.4(c) shall be made in good faith by Parent, and written notice thereof (the “Earn-Out Payment Notice”) detailing the calculation of Sales Revenue, the EBITDA of the Company Group and the Earn-Out Payments shall be given to the Stockholders not later than ninety (90) calendar days after the end of the applicable Earn-Out Period. If the Stockholders dispute the calculation of the Sales Revenue, the EBITDA of the Company Group or the amount of the Earn-Out Payments contained in an Earn-Out Payment Notice, the Stockholders” Representative, on behalf of the Stockholders, may within thirty (30) calendar days after the receipt of such Earn-Out Payment Notice (the “Earn-Out Payment Review Period”) deliver written notice to Parent of any objections thereto, which written notice shall specify in reasonable detail the rationale for such disagreement and the amount in dispute. The Stockholders’ Representative, on behalf of the Stockholders, and Parent will attempt in good faith to reach an agreement as to any matters identified in such written notice as being in dispute. If Parent and the Stockholders fail to resolve all such matters in dispute within twenty (20) calendar days after the delivery by the Stockholders’ Representative of such written notice to Parent, then any matters identified in such written notice that remain in dispute shall be finally and conclusively determined by the Working Capital Arbitrator retained at the expense of the Parent and the Stockholders as provided herein; provided, further that Parent shall pay to the Stockholders the Earn-Out Payment equal to the portion of the Earn-Out Payment Notice that is not in dispute. Only the matters that remain in dispute shall be submitted to the Working Capital Arbitrator. Promptly, but not later than thirty (30) calendar days after its acceptance of its appointment, the Working Capital Arbitrator will determine only those matters in dispute and will render a written report as to the disputed matters and any disputed calculations included in the applicable Earn-Out Payment Notice, which written report of the Working Capital Arbitrator will be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto. The costs and expenses of the Working Capital Arbitrator shall be borne by Parent, on the one hand, and the Stockholders, on the other hand, in equal portions. The Working Capital Arbitrator shall have the power and discretion to asses a greater portion of its costs and expenses against Parent, on the one hand, or the Stockholders, on the other hand, to the extent that such party has made claims or interposed defenses without credible basis or otherwise to avoid an unjust result. Such disproportionate allocation, if applicable, will also be determined by the Working Capital Arbitrator and be included in the Working Capital Arbitrator’s written report. If the Stockholders’

-13-

Representative fails to notify Parent of any disputes within the Earn-Out Payment Period, the Earn-Out Payment Notice will be conclusive and binding on Parent and the Stockholders. If the Stockholders’ Representative notifies Parent of their agreement with all of the items in the Earn-Out Payment Notice, such items will be conclusive and binding on Parent and the Stockholders immediately upon such notice. The date on which the Earn-Out Payment Notice becomes conclusive and binding on the parties hereto (including as a result of any determination by the Working Capital Arbitrator) is referred to as the “Earn-Out Statement Finalization Date.”

(vii) Parent shall pay the Earn-Out Payments to the Stockholders within ten (10) calendar days after the Earn-Out Statement Finalization Date; provided, that, to the extent a dispute relating to the Earn-Out Payment Notice is submitted to the Working Capital Arbitrator, then any portion of the Earn-Out Payment that is not in dispute shall be paid by Parent within ten (10) calendar days after submission of the dispute to the Working Capital Arbitrator.

(viii) The parties agree that the payment of the Earn-Out Payments pursuant to this Section 1.4(c) shall be treated for all Tax purposes as an adjustment to the purchase price other than amounts required to be treated as interest for such purposes and unless otherwise required by applicable law or a determination within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Code.

(ix) At reasonable times and during normal business hours, Parent shall permit the Stockholders and its legal, accounting and financial advisors and other representatives to examine the financial books and records of the Company, to make such inspections and copies of such books and records as they may reasonably require, and to discuss such matters with the appropriate personnel of Parent and the Company, each to the extent incident to the right of the Stockholders to object to Parent’s calculation of the amounts set forth in the Earn-Out Payment Notice. All information acquired during such examination shall be deemed “Confidential Information” for purposes of this Agreement.

(d) In the event of a transfer of ownership of a share of Value Stock or AL Stock that is not registered in the stock transfer books of Value Lighting or AL Enterprises, as applicable, the proper amount of the Subsequent Payment Shares and Earn-Out Shares (as determined in accordance with, and subject to, the terms of this Article I) may be paid in exchange therefor to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Stock Certificate so surrendered is registered if such Stock Certificate shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and accompanied by all the documents required by Section 1.4(c) and the Person requesting such payment shall pay any transfer or other Taxes required by reason of the payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Stock Certificate or establish to the satisfaction of Parent that such Tax has been paid or is not applicable. No interest shall be paid or shall accrue on the cash or stock consideration payable upon surrender of any Stock Certificate.

(e) None of the Surviving Company, Merger Sub, Parent, Value Lighting or AL Enterprises shall be liable to any Person in respect of any cash delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(f) If any Stock Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Stock Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Parent, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such reasonable amount as Parent may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Stock Certificate, Parent will issue, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Stock Certificate, the Subsequent Payment Shares and Earn-Out Shares, in each case pursuant to this Agreement.

1.5 Withholding Taxes. Parent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as may be required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under any provision of U.S. federal, state, local or non-U.S. Tax law or under any applicable legal requirement. To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

-14-

1.6 NASDAQ Limitation. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, Parent shall not issue shares of Parent Stock under this Agreement to the extent (and only to the extent) such issuance would require the prior approval of the stockholders of Parent pursuant to NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635, and in lieu of such issuance Parent will make payment pursuant to this Agreement in an equivalent number of shares of Series D Preferred Stock.

1.7 Adjustment of Closing Consideration.

(a) Estimated Working Capital. (a) The Company Group and the Stockholders shall prepare and deliver to Parent (such delivery to be made at least two (2) calendar days prior to the Closing Date) a balance sheet of the Company Group as of the Closing Date (the “Estimated Closing Balance Sheet”) containing their good faith best estimate of the Working Capital as of the Closing Date after giving effect to the Third Party Expenses incurred by the Company Group (the “Estimated Working Capital”). The Estimated Closing Balance Sheet, and the calculation of Estimated Working Capital, shall be prepared consistently with the formula and the accounting principles set forth on Schedule 1.7(a). If the Estimated Working Capital is less than the Working Capital Target, then the Aggregate Consideration will be decreased dollar-for-dollar by the amount of such shortfall in the form of a reduction in (y) first, the Closing Payment to be delivered by Parent to the Stockholders pursuant to Section 1.4(a) until no Closing Payment remains and (z) second, to the Subsequent Payment until no Subsequent Payment remains. If the Estimated Working Capital is greater than the Working Capital Target, then the Closing Payment will be increased dollar-for-dollar by the amount of such excess. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, there shall be no adjustment to the Aggregate Consideration if the Estimated Working Capital is within $50,000 of the Working Capital Target.

(b) Actual Working Capital. As soon as practicable after the Closing Date hereof, but not later than sixty (60) calendar days after the Closing Date, Parent shall prepare and deliver to the Stockholders (i) a balance sheet of the Company Group as of the Closing Date (the “Final Closing Balance Sheet”), reflecting all adjustments made by Parent to the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet, (ii) Parent’s calculation of the Working Capital as of the Closing Date (the “Actual Working Capital”), and (iii) all work papers and copies of source documents that reasonably support and document Parent’s determination of the Final Closing Balance Sheet and the Actual Working Capital (collectively, the “Supporting Documents”). The Final Closing Balance Sheet, and the calculation of Actual Working Capital, is to be prepared consistently with Schedule 1.7(a). Any adjustments made to the inventory or accounts receivable reserves in connection with the Company Group’s audit of the December 31, 2013 balance sheet will be made both to the Working Capital Target and to the Actual Working Capital. No adjustment increasing reserves for obsolete or slow-moving inventory, or increasing reserves for doubtful accounts, shall be made by Parent to Stockholders’ computations thereof on the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet so long as Stockholders’ estimates apply the methodology used in connection with the audit of the Company Group’s December 31, 2013 balance sheet. The Stockholders and their accountants and other representatives shall cooperate fully and in good faith with Parent in the preparation and review of the Final Closing Balance Sheet (including by providing access to accountants’ work papers relevant to the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet).

(c) Objection Notice. Within twenty (20) calendar days after the delivery of the Final Closing Balance Sheet and Supporting Documents to the Stockholders (the “Review Period”), the Stockholders’ Representative, on behalf the Stockholders, may deliver written notice (the “Protest Notice”) to Parent of any objections to Parent’s calculation of the Actual Working Capital. The Protest Notice shall (i) describe the nature of the Stockholders’ objection in reasonable detail, (ii) identify the specific items involved and the dollar amount of each such objection, and (iii) be accompanied with reasonable supporting documentation for each of the Stockholders’ objections. In the event that the Stockholders’ Representative does not deliver a Protest Notice, the Stockholders’ Representative will

-15-

provide Parent with a notice by the end of the Review Period indicating that the Stockholders’ Representative accepts the Final Closing Balance Sheet and Parent’s calculation of the Actual Working Capital (an “Acceptance Notice”); provided, however, that in the absence of a timely provided Protest Notice or Acceptance Notice (as applicable) by the end of the Review Period, the Stockholders will be deemed to have accepted the Final Closing Balance Sheet and Parent’s calculation of the Actual Working Capital.

(d) Dispute Resolution. If the Stockholders’ Representative timely delivers a Protest Notice to Parent, then any dispute shall be resolved as follows:

(i) Parent and the Stockholders’ Representative shall promptly endeavor to negotiate in good faith to agree upon the amount of the Actual Working Capital. If Parent and the Stockholders reach such an agreement, the Stockholders’ Representative shall provide Parent with an Acceptance Notice based on a finalized Final Closing Balance Sheet and calculation of Actual Working Capital mutually agreed to by Parent and the Stockholders’ Representative, which Acceptance Notice shall reflect such mutual agreement. If such an agreement determining the amount of the Actual Working Capital has not been reached within thirty (30) calendar days after the date of Parent’s receipt of the Protest Notice, then each of Parent’s and Stockholders’ determination of the items in dispute shall be submitted to a nationally recognized accounting firm mutually agreed to by the parties (with whom neither Parent or its principals, nor the Company or the Stockholders, have any competitive interests with, ownership interests in, or other conflicts of interests concerning) to arbitrate the dispute over the calculation of the Actual Working Capital (the “Working Capital Arbiter”). Upon the selection of the Working Capital Arbiter, each of Parent’s and the Stockholders’ determination of the items in dispute shall be submitted to the Working Capital Arbiter.

(ii) The Working Capital Arbiter shall be directed to render a detailed written report that sets forth the resolution of all items in dispute and that contains a final copy of the Final Closing Balance Sheet as promptly as practicable, and to resolve only those issues of dispute set forth in the Protest Notice. The Stockholders and Parent shall, in accordance with the timetables established by the Working Capital Arbiter, each furnish the Working Capital Arbiter with such work papers, schedules and other documents and information relating to the unresolved disputed issues as the Working Capital Arbiter may reasonably request. The Working Capital Arbiter shall establish the procedures it shall follow (including procedures regarding the presentation of materials supporting each party’s position) giving due regard to the mutual intention of Parent and the Stockholders to resolve each of the disputed items and amounts as accurately, quickly, efficiently and inexpensively as possible, but in no event later than sixty (60) calendar days after the Protest Notice is sent by the Stockholders’ Representative. The Working Capital Arbiter’s resolution of the dispute and the calculation of the Actual Working Capital shall be final and binding upon the parties, absent manifest error. The fees and expenses of the Working Capital Arbiter shall be borne equally by Parent, on the one hand, and the Stockholders, on the other hand.

(e) Working Capital Adjustment. After the final determination of the Actual Working Capital, the Aggregate Consideration shall be adjusted as follows:

(i) If Actual Working Capital is less than the Estimated Working Capital, then the Closing Payment shall be reduced dollar-for-dollar by the entire amount of such deficit, and Parent shall be entitled to the amount of such reduction, which amount shall be satisfied first by the Escrow Cash Amount, until no Escrow Cash Amount remains, and then by setoff from the Escrow Shares until no Escrow Shares remain, and then by setoff from the Subsequent Payment, if not yet paid, until no Subsequent Payment remains, and then by return of the Closing Payment by the Stockholders until no Closing Payment remains and, to the extent previously paid, the Subsequent Payment until no Subsequent Payment remains, which return of funds and shares must occur within ten (10) Business Days after the date of final determination of Actual Working Capital. If the Estimated Working Capital exceeds the amount of the Actual Working Capital by more than the Closing Payment, then the Stockholders shall return to the Parent an aggregate number of Earn-Out Shares determined by dividing the amount of such excess by the Average Closing Price as of the Closing Date, which return of Earn-Out Shares must occur within ten (10) Business Days after the date of final determination of Actual Working Capital.

-16-

(ii) If Actual Working Capital is greater than Estimated Working Capital, then the Aggregate Consideration shall be increased dollar-for-dollar by the entire amount of such surplus, and the Stockholders shall be entitled to the amount of such increase, which amount shall be paid by Parent in the form of immediately available funds within ten (10) Business Days after the date of final determination of Actual Working Capital.

(f) Each Stockholder acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 5.14 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of Parent and constitute a material inducement to Parent to enter into this Agreement and consummate the Transactions. In the event that any covenant contained in this Section 5.14 should ever be adjudicated to exceed the time, geographic, product or service, or other limitations permitted by applicable law in any jurisdiction, then any court is expressly empowered to reform such covenant, and such covenant shall be deemed reformed, in such jurisdiction to the maximum time, geographic, product or service, or other limitations permitted by applicable law.

-38-

5.17 Cash Dividends. In the event Parent declares and pays any cash dividends in respect of Parent Stock for which the record date for determination of stockholders entitled to such dividends occurs before any portion of the Subsequent Payment Shares have been issued and delivered to the Stockholders, then Parent shall pay to the Stockholders, as additional consideration, a cash payment equivalent to the dividend payments the Stockholders’ would receive if all of the Subsequent Payment Shares not then issued were issued and outstanding on such record date.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the obligation of indemnity for the amount of any Losses sustained by any Indemnified Party shall be reduced by (i) insurance proceeds payable with respect to such Losses, (ii) the amounts recovered from third parties with respect to such Losses (net costs of collection); (iii) any net Tax benefits immediately realized by such Indemnified Party in cash arising from the incurrence of payment of such Losses. In no event shall any Indemnified Party be entitled to duplicative or multiple recovery of the economic value of any Losses for any reason.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the rights and remedies of the Indemnified Parties after the Closing shall not be limited by the fact that any Indemnified Party had knowledge of any breach, event or circumstance prior to the Closing or waived any condition to the Closing related thereto.

7.4 Claims for Indemnification; Resolution of Conflicts.

(a) Making a Claim for Indemnification; Officer’s Certificate. An Indemnified Party may seek recovery of Losses pursuant to this Article VII by delivering to the other party or parties (each an “Indemnifying Party” and collectively, the “Indemnifying Parties”) an Officer’s Certificate in respect of such claim. The date of such delivery of an Officer’s Certificate is referred to herein as the “Claim Date” of such Officer’s Certificate (and the claims for indemnification contained therein). For purposes hereof, “Officer’s Certificate” shall mean a certificate signed by any officer of an Indemnified Party (or, in the case of an Indemnified Party who is an individual, signed by such individual): (i) stating that an Indemnified Party has paid, sustained, incurred, or accrued, or reasonably anticipates that it will pay, sustain, incur or accrue Losses and (ii) specifying in reasonable detail the individual items of Losses included in the amount so stated, the date each such item was paid, sustained, incurred, or accrued, or the basis for such anticipated liability, and the nature of the Indemnifiable Matter to which such item is related; provided, that the Officer’s Certificate need only specify such information that would not result in the loss of privilege and that is known to such officer or such Indemnified Party as of the Claim Date, shall not limit any of the rights or remedies of any Indemnified Party, and may be updated and amended from time to time (except to add any claim for which the survival period has then expired) by the Indemnified Party by delivering an updated or amended Officer’s Certificate to the Indemnifying Parties.

(b) Objecting to a Claim for Indemnification.

(i) The Indemnifying Party may object to a claim for indemnification set forth in an Officer’s Certificate by delivering to the Escrow Agent and the Indemnified Party a written statement of objection to the claim made in the Officer’s Certificate (an “Objection Notice”); provided, that to be effective, such Objection Notice must (A) be delivered to the Escrow Agent and the Indemnified Party prior to 5 p.m. (New York time) on the fifteenth calendar day following the Claim Date of the Officer’s Certificate (such deadline, the “Objection Deadline” for such Officer’s Certificate and the claims for indemnification contained therein) and (B) set forth in reasonable detail the nature of the objections to the claims in respect of which the objection is made.

(ii) To the extent the Indemnifying Party does not object in writing (as provided in Section7.4(b)(i)) to the claims contained in an Officer’s Certificate prior to the Objection Deadline for such Officer’s Certificate, such failure to so object shall be an irrevocable acknowledgment by the Indemnifying Party that the Indemnified Party is entitled to the full amount of the claims for

-44-

Losses set forth in such Officer’s Certificate (and such entitlement shall be conclusively and irrefutably established) with respect to the applicable Indemnifying Parties (any such claim, an “Unobjected Claim”). Within fifteen calendar days of a claim becoming an Unobjected Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall make the applicable payment to such Indemnified Party, subject to Sections 7.3 and 7.4(e).

(i) In case the Indemnifying Party timely delivers an Objection Notice in accordance with Section 7.4(b)(i) hereof, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Parties shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims. If the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Parties reach an agreement, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by all applicable parties (any claims covered by such an agreement, “Settled Claims”). Any amounts required to be paid as a result of a Settled Claim shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Parties pursuant to the Settled Claim within thirty (30) calendar days of the applicable claim becoming a Settled Claim, subject to Sections 7.3 and 7.4(e).

(ii) If no such agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation during the forty-five (45) consecutive calendar day period after delivery of an Objection Notice, then upon the expiration of such forty-five (45) calendar day period either the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party may demand arbitration of the matter unless the amount of the Loss that is at issue is the subject of a pending litigation with a third party, in which event arbitration shall not be commenced until such amount is ascertained or both parties agree to arbitration, and in either such event the matter shall be settled by arbitration conducted pursuant to Section 8.10.

(iii) Except as set forth in Section 7.4(c)(v) hereof, arbitration under Section 8.10 shall apply to any dispute among the Indemnifying Parties and the Indemnified Parties under this Article VII hereof.

(iv) The decision of the arbitrator or a majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, as to the validity and amount of any claim in such Officer’s Certificate shall be final, binding, and conclusive upon the parties to this Agreement, the Indemnified Parties and the Indemnifying Parties. Such decision shall be written and shall be supported by written findings of fact and conclusions which shall set forth the award, judgment, decree or order awarded by the arbitrator(s). Claims determined by arbitration as provided in this Section 7.4(c) are referred to as “Resolved Claims.” Within fifteen (15) calendar days of a decision of the arbitrator(s) requiring payment by an Indemnifying Party to an Indemnified Party, such Indemnifying Party shall make the payment to such Indemnified Party, subject to Sections 7.3 and 7.4(e).

(v) Arbitration under Section 8.10 shall not apply to claims made in respect of any claim for indemnification that relates solely to an understatement of Third Party Expenses in the calculation of the Working Capital until such claims are deemed to be Resolved Claims.

(d) Payable and Unresolved Claims. A “Payable Claim” shall mean a claim for indemnification of Losses under this Article VII, to the extent that such claim has not yet been satisfied by the Indemnifying Party that is (i) a Resolved Claim, (ii) a Settled Claim, or (iii) an Unobjected Claim. An “Unresolved Claim” shall mean any claim for indemnification of Losses under this Article VII specified in any Officer’s Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 7.4(a), to the extent that such claim is not a Payable Claim and has not been satisfied by the Indemnifying Party.

(e) Satisfaction of Losses. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7.3(b), on the date a claim against an Indemnifying Party becomes a Payable Claim, Parent shall have the right to set off the amount of any Losses with respect to which any Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder against any amounts due or that may become due to the Stockholders as a Subsequent Payment or under the Escrow or in respect of the Earn-Out Payments. Any setoff with respect to the Escrow shall be made first from the Escrow Cash Amount and then from the Escrow Shares (valued at the Average Closing Price as of the date notice of the Payable Claim was given). Stockholders shall nevertheless have the right and option to satisfy any Payable Claim in cash.

-45-

(f) Indemnity Escrow. To secure the Stockholders’ performance of their indemnity obligations under this Article VII, Parent shall deposit with an independent escrow agent to be agreed to by the parties (the “Escrow Agent”), (i) the Escrow Shares, and (ii) the Escrow Cash Amount (collectively with the Escrow Shares, the “Escrow”), pursuant to the terms and conditions of a customary escrow agreement to be agreed upon by the parties prior to the Closing and to be entered into as of the Closing Date by and among Parent, Company, the Stockholders and the Escrow Agent (the “Escrow Agreement”). Parent shall cause the Escrow Agent to deliver to the Stockholders any portion of the Escrow (i) remaining after the application of any setoff pursuant to Section 7.4(e) and (ii) not then subject to any Payable Claim or Unresolved Claim, as follows (x) after final resolution of the working capital adjustment pursuant to Section 1.7(e), the Escrow Cash Amount, (ii) on the first anniversary of the Closing Date, fifty percent (50%) of the Escrow Shares, and (iii) on the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date, any remaining portion of the Escrow Shares, if any. Any portion withheld at such time in respect of an Unresolved Claim shall be promptly delivered to the Stockholders after such claim for indemnification of Losses has ceased to be an Unresolved Claim and has not matured into a Payable Claim. The Escrow Shares will be issued in the name of the Stockholders upon issuance in connection with a Subsequent Payment, and unless and until released to Parent in accordance with this Article VII, the Stockholders shall have the sole and exclusive right to exercise any and all voting and consensual rights and powers from and after such date, and shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all cash dividends. For income tax purposes, the Stockholders shall be deemed the owner of the Escrow Shares, and the Stockholders will be responsible for paying all Taxes on any earnings associated with such issuance and ownership. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that they will not treat any portion of a payment to the Stockholders from the Escrow upon release (if ever) of the amounts held pursuant to the terms of this Section 7.4(f) as a payment of interest to the Stockholders by Parent, except as otherwise required by a Taxing Authority.

(g) Third Party Claims. If an Indemnified Party becomes aware of a third party claim that such Indemnified Party reasonably believes may result in a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Article VII, the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party of such claim, and the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled, in its sole discretion, to conduct the defense of, and to settle (except as otherwise provided in clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 7.5(g)), any such claim. The Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of a third party claim assumed by the Indemnifying Party and to employ counsel of the Indemnified Party’s choice for such purpose; provided that the fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party’s separate counsel shall be borne by the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party shall control the defense of any third party claim, the Indemnifying Party shall obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party before entering into any settlement of such third party claim or ceasing to defend such third party claim if, pursuant to or as a result of such settlement or cessation, (i) injunctive or other equitable relief will be imposed against the Indemnified Party or (ii) if such settlement does not expressly and unconditionally release the Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations with respect to such third party claim with prejudice.

7.5 Tax Treatment. Any payment under Article VII of this Agreement shall be treated by the parties for U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. income Tax purposes as a purchase price adjustment unless otherwise required by applicable law or a determination within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Code.

7.6 Delay of Notice. The failure of an Indemnified Party to give reasonably prompt notice to an Indemnifying Party of any indemnification claim shall not release, waive or otherwise affect the Indemnifying Party’s obligations with respect thereto except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party can demonstrate actual loss and prejudice as a result of such failure.

8.2 Interpretation. Unless a clear contrary intention appears: (i) the singular number shall include the plural, and vice versa; (ii) reference to any gender includes each other gender; (iii) reference to any Contract, document or instrument shall mean such Contract, document or instrument as amended or modified and in effect from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof; (iv) “include” and “including,” and variations thereof, shall not be deemed to be terms of limitation, but rather shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”; (v) all references in this Agreement to “Schedules,” “Sections” and “Exhibits” are intended to refer to Schedules, Sections and Exhibits to this Agreement, except as otherwise indicated; (vi) the table of contents and headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only, shall not be deemed to be a part of this Agreement, and shall not be referred to in connection with the construction or interpretation of this Agreement; (vii) “or” is used in the inclusive sense of “and/or”; (viii) with respect to the determination of any period of time, “from” shall mean “from and including” and “to” shall mean “to but excluding”; and (ix) “hereunder,” “hereof,” “hereto,” and words of similar import shall be deemed references to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular Article, Section or other provision hereof.

8.3 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other party, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart. Until and unless each party has received a counterpart hereof signed by the other party hereto, this Agreement shall have no effect and no party shall have any right or obligation hereunder (whether by virtue of any other oral or written agreement or other communication). Any signature page delivered electronically or by facsimile (including without limitation transmission by Portable Document Format or other fixed image form) shall be binding to the same extent as an original signature page.

8.4 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto at any time by execution of an instrument in writing signed on behalf of the party against whom enforcement is sought.

-48-

8.5 Entire Agreement; Assignment. This Agreement, the exhibits hereto, the Disclosure Schedule, that certain Mutual Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure Agreement as previously executed, and the Related Agreements: (i) constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, (ii) are not intended to confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies hereunder except that Article VII shall be for the benefit of not only the parties hereto but also each of the Indemnified Parties (subject to all terms and provisions of such Article VII), and (iii) shall not be assigned by operation of law or otherwise, except that at any time and from time to time Parent may assign its rights and delegate its obligations hereunder to one or more of its Affiliates as long as Parent remains ultimately liable for all of Parent’s obligations hereunder.

8.6 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof, becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the parties hereto. The parties further agree to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

8.7 Other Remedies. Except as otherwise set forth herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such party, and the exercise by a party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. Without prejudice to remedies at law, the parties shall be entitled to specific performance in the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement.

8.8 Governing Law; Exclusive Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, as such laws apply to Contracts entered into and to be performed entirely within New York. Subject to Sections 7.4(c) and 8.10 hereof, each of the parties hereto irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, in connection with any matter based upon or arising out of this Agreement or the matters contemplated herein, agrees that process may be served upon them in any manner authorized by the laws of the State of New York, for such Persons and waives and covenants not to assert or plead any objection which they might otherwise have to such jurisdiction, venue and such process. Subject to Sections 7.4(c) and 8.10 hereof, each party agrees not to commence any legal proceedings related hereto except in such courts.

8.9 Rules of Construction. The parties hereto agree that they have been represented by counsel during the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and therefore waive the application of any law, regulation, holding or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the party drafting such agreement or document.

8.10 Resolution of Conflicts; Arbitration. Except as provided in Sections 1.4(e)(v) and 1.6(d) and with respect to claims for equitable relief or other remedies arising out of Sections 5.13 and 5.15, any claim or dispute arising out of or related to this Agreement, or the interpretation, making, performance, breach or termination thereof, shall (except as specifically set forth in this Agreement) be finally settled by binding arbitration in the State of New York, in accordance with the then current Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, and judgment upon the award rendered may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator(s) shall have the authority to grant any equitable and legal remedies that would be available in any judicial proceeding instituted to resolve a dispute.

-49-

(a) Selection of Arbitrators. Such arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator chosen by mutual agreement of Parent and the Stockholders. Alternatively, at the request of either party before the commencement of arbitration, the arbitration shall be conducted by three independent arbitrators, none of whom shall have any competitive interests with, ownership interests in, or other conflicts of interest concerning Parent or the Stockholders. Parent, on the one hand, and the Stockholders, on the other hand, shall each select one arbitrator. The two arbitrators so selected shall select a third arbitrator.

(b) Discovery. In any arbitration under this Section 8.10, each party shall be limited to calling a total of three witnesses both for purposes of deposition and the arbitration hearing. Subject to the foregoing limitation on the number of witnesses, the arbitrator or arbitrators, as the case may be, shall set a limited time period and establish procedures designed to reduce the cost and time for discovery while allowing the parties an opportunity, adequate in the sole judgment of the arbitrator or majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, to discover relevant information from the opposing parties about the subject matter of the dispute. The arbitrator, or a majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, shall rule upon motions to compel or limit discovery and shall have the authority to impose sanctions for discovery abuses, including attorneys’ fees and costs, to the same extent as a competent court of law or equity, should the arbitrators or a majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, determine that discovery was sought without substantial justification or that discovery was refused or objected to without substantial justification.

(c) Decision. The decision of the arbitrator or a majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, as to the validity and amount of any claim hereunder shall be final, binding, and conclusive upon Parent, on the one hand, and the Stockholders, on the other hand. Such decision shall be written and shall be supported by written findings of fact and conclusions which shall set forth the award, judgment, decree or order awarded by the arbitrator(s). Within thirty (30) calendar days of a decision of the arbitrator(s) requiring payment by one party to another, such party shall make the payment to such other party.

(d) Other Relief. Subject to Section 8.8, the parties to the arbitration may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction or other interim or conservatory relief, as necessary, without breach of this arbitration provision and without abridgement of the powers of the arbitrator(s).

(e) Costs and Expenses. The parties agree that each party shall pay its own costs and expenses (including counsel fees) of any such arbitration, and each party waives its right to seek an order compelling the other party to pay its portion of its costs and expenses (including counsel fees) for any arbitration. Any fees of the arbitrator(s) shall be borne in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association governing the arbitration.

8.11 Stockholders’ Representative. Each Stockholder hereby irrevocably appoints Alan Carlquist (the “Stockholders’ Representative”) as his representative and attorney-in-fact to act for and on its behalf, with full power and authority, including power of substitution, to execute and deliver any and all agreements, waivers, compromises, settlements and claims arising out of or related to the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the Related Agreements, including with respect to the matters set forth in Sections 1.4(e) and 1.7.
