THIS MEMBERSHIP INTEREST PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into April 15, 2004 by and among SOURCECORP, Incorporated, a Delaware corporation with its principal offices at 3232 McKinney Avenue, Suite 1000, Dallas, Texas 75204 (“Parent”), KeyPoint I Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation with its principal offices at 3232 McKinney Avenue, Suite 1000, Dallas, Texas 75204 (“Buyer”), KeyPoint Consulting LLC, a California limited liability company with its principal offices at 2000 Powell Street, Suite 500, Emeryville, California 94608 (the “Company”), Michael J. Doane, Marc Vellrath, Michael A. Williams, Brett L. Reed, R. Preston McAfee, David S. Sibley, Alan C. Hess and James A. Wilcox (each of Mr. Doane, Mr. Vellrath, Mr. Williams and Mr. Reed, a “Primary Equity Member,” and each of Mr. McAfee, Mr. Sibley, Mr. Hess and Mr. Wilcox, an “Academic Member” and all collectively, the “Members”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Members own all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of the Company;

WHEREAS, the Members desire to sell and convey to Buyer, and Buyer desires to purchase from the Members, all of the outstanding membership interests of the Company; and

WHEREAS, in connection with the purchase by Buyer from the Members of all of the outstanding membership interests in the Company and all agreements and relationships contemplated by this Agreement, (i) Buyer will cause the Company to enter into employment agreements with each of the Primary Equity Members in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (collectively, the “Employment Agreements”) and (ii) Buyer will cause the Company to enter into independent contractor agreements in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (collectively, the “Independent Contractor Agreements”) and noncompetition, nonsolicitation and confidentiality agreements with each of the Academic Members in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (collectively, the “Noncompetition Agreements”).

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and of the mutual representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, and of other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth, the parties do hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

PURCHASE AND SALE

1.1 Purchase and Sale of Membership Interests. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, on the Closing Date (as defined below), Buyer agrees to purchase from the Members, and the Members agree to sell to Buyer, all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of the Company, including without limitation, the goodwill of the businesses of the Company (the “Company Interests”), for a total consideration of $15,000,000

(as set forth on Schedule 1.1) (subject to the terms and conditions and Buyer’s right of offset, each as described below, the “Total Consideration”) consisting of:

(i) $13,500,000 payable to the Members in cash at the Closing, as such amount may be adjusted pursuant to the Closing Price Adjustment set forth in Section 1.2; and

(ii) $1,500,000 in cash (the “Holdback Amount”), to be held by Buyer for a period of one hundred twenty (120) days from the date of Closing as security and as a nonexclusive offset for any breach of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Company and the Members, and for the Members’ indemnification obligations, each as set forth herein, to be released by Buyer to the Members in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth herein less the amount of any claims then asserted by Buyer under this Agreement. Without limiting Buyer’s remedies as set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, Buyer may offset against the Holdback Amount amounts payable to it or the Company by the Members with respect to Buyer’s Losses pursuant to the provisions of Article IX below.

1.2 Purchase Price Adjustment. The Total Consideration shall be adjusted (a) downward at Closing on a dollar-for-dollar basis to the extent of any distributions of property of the Company to the Members from and after January 1, 2004 and prior to the Closing Date (and not to include the Segregated Accounts described in Section 1.3(a) below), and (b) upward or downward twelve (12) months following the Closing to the extent that the Modified Tangible Net Worth of the Company as reflected on the balance sheet of the Company at the close of business on the Effective Date defined in Section 1.5 below (the “Effective Date Balance Sheet”), after segregating from the Effective Date Balance Sheet the Segregated Accounts (as defined in Section 1.3(a) below) to be held by the Company on behalf of the Members (and therefore excluding the same from the Modified Tangible Net Worth calculation), is above or below $0, as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied (“GAAP”). In calculating Modified Tangible Net Worth, no effect shall be given to, and no asset shall be deemed to exist as a result of, the right of the Company or any of its affiliates to receive a percentage of the Company’s accounts receivable as of the Closing Date (the “KeyPoint Receivables”) pursuant to Section 1.3 hereof. The aggregate adjustments to the Total Consideration made pursuant to this Section 1.2 are referred to as the “Closing Price Adjustment.”

1.3 Segregation of Specified Assets and Liabilities; Post-Closing Adjustment.

(a) Prior to or concurrently with the Closing, the Company keep and track separately from other accounts the following accounts on behalf of the Members: (i) the Company’s accounts receivable as of the Closing Date (which as of February 29, 2004 was approximately $3,097,257), together with any collections thereof from the Effective Date through the Closing Date (the “KeyPoint Receivables”), (ii) the Company’s obligations to pay Members any and all compensation that is contingent upon collection of any of the Receivables (which as of February 29, 2004 was approximately $2,232,286), (iii) the Company’s obligations to pay affiliates of the Company and third

parties any and all compensation that is contingent upon collection of any of the Receivables (which as of February 29, 2004 was approximately $236,564), (iv) compensation receivable from Jeffrey D. Redman (which is as of February 29, 2004 was approximately $94,873); and (v) the Company’s obligations to make any and all payments and contributions to the KeyPoint Consulting LLC Defined Benefit Pension Plan and related trust (all such assets and liabilities described in this Section 1.3(a) being collectively referred to herein as the “Segregated Accounts”). The items included in the Segregated Accounts shall be set forth on Schedule 1.3.

(b) The Company shall track and report to the Members all receipts from collection of the KeyPoint Receivables from the Effective Date forward. Buyer’s portion of any receipts from collections of the KeyPoint Receivables shall be seventy percent (70%) of all such receipts, up to an aggregate amount of $1,000,000. Buyer’s portion of receipts from collections of the KeyPoint Receivables and the aggregate amount set forth in this Section 1.3(b) may be adjusted pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.6 below.

(c) On or before the fifteenth day of each month, commencing with the first calendar month following the Closing, the Company shall deposit into a separate KeyPoint bank account (the “KeyPoint Distribution Account”) all receipts from the collection of KeyPoint Receivables in the preceding month, less Buyer’s portion of the KeyPoint Receivables described in Section 1.3(b) above.

(d) Distributions from the KeyPoint Distribution Account shall be made in the following order: (i) first, to Buyer of any amounts then due and payable to it in accordance with this Section 1.3; (ii) second, to pay to third parties and to affiliates of the Company any and all compensation that is contingent upon collection of any of the KeyPoint Receivables included in the Segregated Accounts to the extent that such amounts are due and payable as a consequence of the collection of such KeyPoint Receivables; (iii) third, to pay expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement for which the Members are or may become liable under Section 2.8(i) hereof (not to exceed $350,000); and (iv) fourth, as described below in this Section 1.3(d). Any balance in the KeyPoint Distribution Account shall be distributed as provided below upon the first to occur of (i) the first anniversary of the Closing and (ii) such time as all of Company’s payment obligations included within the Segregated Accounts and Schedule 1.3 have been fully satisfied or funds have been reserved in the appropriate accounts that in the reasonable judgment of the Company and Buyer are sufficient to fully satisfy such payment obligations evidenced by such Segregated Accounts (and with any such amounts set aside in this fashion to be excluded from the distribution from the KeyPoint Distribution Account described below in this Section 1.3(d)). Prior to the distribution of the applicable balance in the KeyPoint Distribution Account, the Members shall provide to Buyer a Distribution Allocation Schedule executed by each of the Members instructing the Company how it is to distribute among the Members the balance in the KeyPoint Distribution Account that includes a waiver by each Member of any claim thereof against the Company, Buyer or Parent with respect to the amount so distributed to such Member in accordance with such schedule. Buyer will distribute any balance then remaining in the KeyPoint Distribution

Account in accordance with the Distribution Allocation Schedule through the normal payroll process to the Members, if such Members are employees of Company, and through the Company’s accounts payable process, with respect to the Members who are Independent Contractors; provided, that no amount shall be paid from the KeyPoint Distribution Account directly or indirectly to a Member (including, without limitation, any payment with respect to the Company’s obligations to pay Members and other affiliates of the Company any and all compensation that is contingent upon collection of any of the Receivables), unless the Company’s liabilities and obligations with respect to the Defined Benefit Pension Plan and related trust have been fully extinguished. In the event of any change in the amount of the distribution to be made from the KeyPoint Distribution Account, Buyer may at its option require the Members to execute an updated Distribution Allocation Schedule as a condition to effecting the distribution.

(e) In the event that a contribution to the Defined Benefit Pension Plan trust becomes due and payable before the KeyPoint Distribution Account has accumulated sufficient funds to cover the required contribution, the Company may make such payment and may recover and/or set-off such amount in the manner described in Section 1.6 below.

(f) Upon closure of the Defined Benefit Pension Plan, any deficit, penalties or contributions owed in respect of the Defined Benefit Pension Plan, and any fees associated with filing any previously required Defined Benefit Pension Plan filings (including without limitation the required Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 amendment), shall be paid by the Members or, if paid by the Company, the Company may recover and/or set-off such amount in the manner described in Section 1.6 below, and any surplus with respect to the Defined Benefit Pension Plan, after appropriate deduction for any assorted Taxes and penalties, shall be paid into the KeyPoint Distribution Account for distribution to and at the direction of Marc Vellrath as representative of the Members.

(g) In the event that any claim arising from the Segregated Liabilities other than compensation payable to Members is not timely paid from the KeyPoint Distribution Account, the Company may make such payment, and may recover and/or set-off such amount in the manner described in Section 1.6 below; provided, that in no event shall the Company have any obligation to pay any compensation payable to a Member arising from the Segregated Liabilities.

(h) In the event that the Company has not received an aggregate amount of $1,000,000 (as such amount may be adjusted pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.6 below) with respect to collected KeyPoint Receivables as described in this Section 1.3 by December 31, 2004, the Company may recover and/or set-off the aggregate amount of the difference between the amount collected and retained by the Company as of such date and $1,000,000 as described in Section 1.6 below.

1.4 Effective Date Balance Sheet. The Effective Date Balance Sheet shall be prepared by the Company in accordance with GAAP, except as noted on Schedule 1.4. Such Schedule 1.4 shall specify whether and to what extent the scheduled deviations from GAAP shall

impact the financial information included in the Effective Date Balance Sheet, but shall not otherwise affect the Effective Date Balance Sheet or be included in the calculation of the Modified Tangible Net Worth of the Company. Buyer shall have reasonable input into the preparation and verification of such Effective Date Balance Sheet. The Company and the Members shall promptly deliver a copy of the Effective Date Balance Sheet to Buyer after the completion thereof, but not less than two (2) business days prior to the Closing.

1.5 Earnings Treatment. All billings, revenues, receipts, earnings, losses, costs, expenses (including Taxes other than those Taxes arising as a result of the consummation of the purchase and sale of the Company Interests) and cash flow of the Company for the period from and after March 1, 2004 (the “Effective Date”) through the Closing Date, other than receipts from collections of the KeyPoint Receivables, which shall be treated in the manner set forth in Section 1.3, shall be for the benefit of Buyer and shall be acquired by Buyer at the Closing.

1.6 Recovery by Buyer for Section 1.3 Payment. In the event that Buyer or the Company makes any payment described under Section 1.3 that is required to be made (other than from the KeyPoint Distribution Account), Buyer or the Company shall, without prejudice to its rights of offset and recovery otherwise set forth in this Agreement, be entitled to recover any such amount from the following sources in the order set forth below: (i) first, by recovery of such amount from the KeyPoint Distribution Account then available after the receipt by the Company of Buyer’s portion of the KeyPoint Receivables, to be effected by corresponding increases in the percentage and the amount of Buyer’s portion of collected KeyPoint Receivables from the percentage and amount presently set forth in Section 1.3(b) equal to the amount owed to Buyer or the Company as a result of the payment by Buyer or the Company of any amount described in Section 1.3 hereof that is required to be made by the Members; (ii) second, to the extent that the KeyPoint Distribution Account does not have sufficient funds to cover the amount owed to Buyer or the Company under Section 1.3 hereof (after the receipt by the Company of Buyer’s portion of the KeyPoint Receivables), by reduction of the Company’s indebtedness to certain of the Members under the loans made by such Members as set forth on Schedule 4.3 equal to such amount still owed to Buyer or the Company and on a proportionate basis among such Members; and (iii) third, to the extent that the foregoing sources are not sufficient to satisfy the Members’ obligations to Buyer or the Company under Section 1.3, each Member shall be liable to Buyer and the Company on a joint and several basis for such amount without application of any Basket or offset thereby.

1.7 Recovery by Buyer of Closing Price Adjustment. In the event Buyer is due monies as a result of the Closing Price Adjustment described in Section 1.2(b) hereof, Buyer or the Company shall, without prejudice to its rights of offset and recovery otherwise set forth in this Agreement, be entitled to recover any such amount from the following sources in the order set forth below: (i) first, by recovery of such amount from the KeyPoint Distribution Account then available after the receipt by the Company of Buyer’s portion of the KeyPoint Receivables, to be effected by corresponding increases in the percentage and the amount of Buyer’s portion of collected KeyPoint Receivables from the percentage and amount presently set forth in Section 1.3(b) equal to the amount owed to Buyer or the Company as a result of any Closing Price Adjustment under Section 1.2(b) hereof; (ii) second, to the extent that the KeyPoint Distribution Account does not have sufficient funds to cover the amount owed to Buyer or the

Company under Section 1.2(b) (after the receipt by the Company of Buyer’s portion of the KeyPoint Receivables), by reduction of the Company’s indebtedness to certain of the Members under the loans made by such Members as set forth on Schedule 4.3 equal to such amount still owed to Buyer or the Company and on a proportionate basis among such Members; and (iii) third, to the extent that the foregoing sources are not sufficient to satisfy the Members’ obligations to Buyer and the Company under Section 1.2(b), each Member shall be liable to Buyer and the Company on a joint and several basis for such amount without application of any Basket or offset thereby.

ARTICLE II

Each of the Company and the Members, jointly and severally, represent and warrant that all of the following representations and warranties with respect to the Company and its business and operations set forth in this Section 2(A) are true and correct at the time of this Agreement and at the time of the Closing.

2.1 Authorization.

The Company is a limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of its organization with all requisite limited liability company power and authority to own, lease or operate its properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted and in the place where such properties are owned, leased or operated. The Company is duly qualified or licensed as a foreign limited liability company and in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the character or location of the property owned, leased or operated by it or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary. Set forth on Schedule 2.2 is a list of the jurisdictions in which the Company is qualified or licensed to do business as a foreign limited liability company. Set forth on Schedule 2.2 is a listing of all names of all predecessor companies for the past five (5) years of the Company, including the names of any entities from whom the Company previously acquired material assets during such period (and, in the event of any such acquisitions, copies of the related purchase agreements), and of all names under which the Company does or has done business since its organization. Except as disclosed on Schedule 2.2, the Company has not been a subsidiary or division of another business

organization or a part of an acquisition that was later rescinded. True, complete and correct copies of the Certificate of Formation of the Company certified by the Secretary of State of the applicable state of organization as of the date not more than thirty (30) days prior to the Closing and of the Operating Agreement of the Company are all attached hereto on Schedule 2.2 (the “Charter Documents”). Except as set forth on Schedule 2.2 the minute books of the Company, as heretofore made available to Buyer, are correct and complete in all respects.

2.3 Capitalization of the Company.

(a) The Company’s outstanding membership interests are held by the Members as described on Schedules 1.1 and 2.3. All of the Company Interests have been validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable and no holder thereof is entitled to any preemptive rights (except any statutory preemptive rights, which the Members hereby waive). There are no outstanding conversion or exchange rights, subscriptions, options, warrants or other arrangements or commitments obligating the Company to issue any membership interests or other securities or to purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any membership interests or other securities, or to pay any dividend or make any distribution in respect thereof, except as set forth on Schedule 2.3.

(b) The Members (i) own of record and beneficially (subject to the community property interest of any Member’s spouse) and have good and marketable title to all of the issued and outstanding Company Interests, free and clear of any and all liens, mortgages, security interests, encumbrances, pledges, charges, adverse claims, options, buy-sell agreements, rights of first refusal agreements, property settlement or marital dissolution agreements, rights or restrictions of any character whatsoever other than standard state and federal securities law private offering legends and restrictions (collectively, “Liens”), and (ii) have the right to vote the Company Interests on any matters as to which any outstanding membership interests of the Company are entitled to be voted under the laws of the state of organization of the Company and the Company’s Charter Documents, free of any right of any other person.

2.4 Subsidiaries. The Company does not presently own, of record or beneficially, or control, directly or indirectly, any limited liability company interest, capital stock, securities convertible into the foregoing, or any other equity interest in any limited liability company, corporation, association or business entity, nor is the Company, directly or indirectly, a participant in any joint venture, partnership or other non-corporate entity.

2.5 Financial Statements.

(a) The Company has previously furnished to Buyer the unaudited balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2003 and the related unaudited statements of operations, members’ equity and cash flows for the three (3) fiscal years then ended, together with the Effective Date Balance Sheet (collectively, the “Financial Statements”). The Financial Statements (i) have been prepared in accordance with, and are consistent with, the accounting methods of the Company and commercially reasonable accounting practices and with the Company’s books and records and any work papers pertaining to such Financial Statements, (ii) present fairly and on a basis consistent with the

Company’s historical practice the financial position and results of operations, members’ equity and cash flows of the Company as of the indicated dates and for the indicated periods and (iii) solely with respect to the Effective Date Balance Sheet (after segregating from the Effective Date Balance Sheet and disregarding the Segregated Accounts to be held by the Company on behalf of the Members), and except as set forth on Schedule 1.4 and Schedule 2.5, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied. Any such deviations from GAAP on the Effective Date Balance Sheet shall be quantified to the extent practicable on Schedules 1.4 and 2.5. Such deviations from GAAP on the Effective Date Balance Sheet, including without limitation such deviations set forth on the foregoing Schedule 1.4 and 2.5, shall not entitle Buyer or the Company to recover Buyer’s Losses pursuant to the indemnification provisions of Article IX hereof unless and to the extent such deviations (i) constitute “Buyer’s GAAP Losses” and (ii) cause the total amount of such Buyer’s GAAP Losses to exceed $50,000 (and upon reaching such amount, Buyer and the Company shall be entitled to assert a claim for indemnification under Article IX with respect to amounts in excess of such $50,000 threshold applicable to Buyer’s GAAP Losses).

(b) Except to the extent (and not in excess of the amounts) reflected in the Effective Date Balance Sheet or as disclosed on Schedule 2.5, the Company has no liabilities or obligations (including, without limitation, Taxes (as defined in Section 2.8) payable and deferred Taxes or interest accrued since December 31, 2003) required to be reflected in the Financial Statements (or the notes thereto) in accordance with GAAP other than current liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business, consistent with past good business practices, subsequent to the Effective Date. The Company has no obligation or liability with respect to the indebtedness, obligations and liabilities included within the Segregated Accounts. The Company has also disclosed to Buyer on Schedule 2.5, in the case of any and all liabilities that are contingent, a reasonable estimate of the maximum amount that may be payable. For each such contingent liability, the Company has provided to Buyer the following information:

(i) A summary description of the liability together with the following:

(A) Copies of all relevant documentation relating thereto;

(B) Amounts claimed and any other action or relief sought; and

(C) Name of claimant and all other parties to the claim, suit or proceeding.

(ii) The name of each court or agency before which such claim, suit or proceeding is pending;

(iii) The date such claim, suit or proceeding was instituted; and

(iv) A reasonable best estimate by the Company of the maximum amount, if any, that is likely to become payable with respect to each such liability.

If no estimate is provided, the Company’s best estimate shall for purposes of this Agreement be deemed to be zero.

(c) The books of account and other books and records of the Company are accurate and complete in all respects, have been maintained in accordance with good business practices consistently applied and the matters contained therein are fairly presented in, and are consistent with, the Financial Statements. The Company’s internal structures and procedures for financial reporting have been established and are evaluated periodically by the Company’s management and, to the best knowledge of the Company and the Members, are effective and there are no material weaknesses therein.

2.6 Accounts and Notes Receivable. Set forth on Schedule 2.6 is an accurate list of the accounts and notes receivable, contract rights, commercial paper, debt securities and other rights to receive money of the Company as of December 31, 2003 included within the Financial Statements, and including receivables from and advances to employees and the Members. The Company shall provide Buyer with an aging of all accounts and notes receivable showing amounts due in thirty (30) day aging categories. Except to the extent reflected on Schedule 2.6, all such accounts and notes are legal, valid and binding obligations of the obligors not subject to setoff or counterclaim and are collectible in their recorded amounts shown on Schedule 2.6, net of reserves reflected in such balance sheet. The Company’s invoices to customers are accurate in respect to services provided, except for matters that are immaterial as to each customer and in the aggregate. Since December 31, 2003, the Company has not (i) written off, cancelled, committed or become obligated to cancel or write off any such accounts or notes, disposed of or transferred any such accounts or notes except through the collection thereof in accordance with their terms or (ii) acquired or permitted to be created any such accounts or notes except in the ordinary course of its business consistent with past good business practices.

2.7 Permits and Intangibles. To the best knowledge of the Company and the Members, the Company holds all licenses, franchises, permits, orders, approvals, variances and other governmental authorizations, including certificates, permits or titles (including motor vehicle titles and current registrations) necessary or required for its business (the “Material Permits”). An accurate list and summary description is set forth on Schedule 2.7 hereto of all such Material Permits. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.7, the Material Permits are valid, and the Company has not received any notice that any governmental authority intends to cancel, terminate, not renew or to materially modify or limit any such Material Permit. The Company has conducted and is conducting its business in compliance with the requirements, standards, criteria and conditions set forth in applicable licenses, franchises, permits, orders, approvals, variances, rules and regulations and is not in violation of any of the foregoing. Except as specifically provided on Schedule 2.7, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not result in a default under or a breach or violation of, or adversely affect the rights and benefits afforded to the Company by, any such Material Permits.

2.8 Tax Matters.

(a) The Company has filed all income Tax returns required to be filed by the Company or the appropriate extensions therefor required to be filed by it and all returns, reports and forms of other Taxes (as defined below) required to be filed or furnished by

the Company prior to the date of this Agreement, and has paid or provided for all Taxes shown to be due on such returns and all such returns, reports and forms are accurate and correct in all respects.

9.10 Limitations on Indemnification. The persons or entities indemnified pursuant to this Article IX shall not assert any claim for indemnification hereunder, except with respect to (i) any claim based upon fraud, (ii) any claim based upon a breach of any representation or warranty contained in Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3 and 2.5(a)(iii) (with respect to Section 2.5(a)(iii), relating to any Buyer’s GAAP Losses in excess of $50,000), 2.8, 2.30, 2.31 or 2.32 or in Section 2.19 (insofar as such claim is based upon a breach of the representations and warranties therein relating to the Company’s Defined Benefit Pension Plan), or (iii) any claim for Buyer’s Losses described in clauses (vi), (ix) or (x) of Section 9.1(a) (and with any such claim under Section 9.1(a)(vi) being satisfied first by recovery from the Holdback Amount), until such time as and solely to the extent that the aggregate of all claims that such persons may have against the Indemnifying Parties shall exceed $150,000 with respect to all claims (the “Basket”), but upon reaching the amount of the Basket, from the first dollar of all claims. Claims described in clauses (i) through (iii) of the foregoing sentence may be made under this Article IX on a first dollar basis and without reference to the Basket. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, except with respect to any claims (a) based upon fraud or (b) for Buyer’s Losses described in clauses (vi), (ix) or (x) of Section 9.1(a), no Indemnifying Party shall be obligated to indemnify, defend and hold harmless an Indemnified Party with respect to any claim for indemnification hereunder in excess of the Total Consideration, as adjusted pursuant to Section 1.2, received by such Indemnifying Party as set forth on Schedule 9.10. The parties agree that neither the Basket nor the cap on the maximum amount of the Members’ indemnification obligations set forth above in this Section 9.10 shall be applicable to (i) any claim based upon fraud, (ii) any claim based upon a breach of any representation or warranty contained in Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.8, 2.30, 2.31 or 2.32 or in Section 2.19 (insofar as such

claim is based upon a breach of the representations and warranties therein relating to the Company’s Defined Benefit Pension Plan), and that such claims shall not be included for purposes of calculating the Basket or the maximum amount of the Members’ indemnification obligations (i.e., as to whether or not the Basket amount has been reached or whether the Members’ indemnification obligations are limited by the amount of Total Consideration received thereby) with respect to any claims for Buyer’s Losses subject to such limitations. The parties further agree that (i) claims for a breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 2.5(a)(iii) shall be limited to claims for Buyer’s GAAP Losses in excess of $50,000, (ii) the Basket shall not be applicable to any such claims and (iii) such claims shall not be included for purposes of calculating the Basket (i.e., as to whether or not the Basket amount has been reached).

10.10 Survival of Covenants, Agreements, Representations and Warranties.

(a) Covenants and Agreements. All covenants and agreements made hereunder or pursuant hereto or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall survive the Closing and shall continue in full force and effect thereafter according to their terms without limit as to duration.

(b) Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the Closing and shall continue in full force and effect thereafter for a period of eighteen (18) months following the Closing, except that (a) the representations and warranties contained in Section 2.8 hereof shall survive until the earlier of (i) the expiration of the applicable periods (including any extensions) of the respective statutes of limitation applicable to the payment of the Taxes to which such representations and warranties relate without an assertion of a deficiency in respect thereof by the applicable Taxing authority or (ii) the completion of the final audit and determinations by the applicable Taxing authority and final disposition of any deficiency resulting therefrom, (b) the representations and warranties contained in Section 2.11 hereof shall serve for a period of five (5) years following the Closing, (c) the representations and warranties contained in Section 2.19 hereof shall survive until the expiration of the applicable period of the statutes of limitation applicable to ERISA matters, and (d) the representations and warranties contained in Sections 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3 shall survive indefinitely.

(c) Claims Made Prior to Expiration. Notwithstanding the foregoing survival periods set forth in this Section 10.10, the termination of a survival period shall not affect the rights of an Indemnified Party in respect of any claim made by such party with specificity, in good faith and in writing to the Indemnifying Party in accordance with Sections 9.6 and 10.8 hereof prior to expiration of the applicable survival period.

10.11 Confidentiality; Publicity. Except as required by law, no party hereto shall issue any press release or make any public statement, in either case relating to or in connection with or arising out of this Agreement or the matters contained herein without obtaining the prior written approval of the other parties to the content and manner of presentation and publication thereof, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Agreement to the contrary (including the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.11) or in any other agreement to which a party hereto is bound, the parties hereto (and any employee, representative or other agent of any of the parties) are hereby expressly authorized to disclose the “tax treatment” or “tax structure” (as those terms are defined in Treas. Reg. §§ 1.6011-4(c)(8) and (9), respectively) of the transactions evidenced by this Agreement and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to the parties relating to such

“tax treatment” or “tax structure” of such transactions, except that “tax structure” or “tax treatment” shall not include the identity of any existing or future party or its affiliates.

10.12 Expenses. The Members, on the one hand, and Parent and Buyer, on the other hand, shall be solely responsible for their respective costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation of this Agreement, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

10.13 Third Party Beneficiaries.

10.15 Specific Performance; Other Rights and Remedies. Each party recognizes and agrees that in the event the other party or parties should refuse to perform any of its or their obligations under this Agreement, the remedy at law would be inadequate and agrees that for breach of such provisions each party shall, in addition to such other remedies as may be available to it at law or in equity, be entitled to injunctive relief and to enforce its rights by an action for specific performance to the extent permitted by applicable law. Each party hereby waives any requirement for security or the posting of any bond or other surety in connection with any temporary or permanent award of injunctive, mandatory or other equitable relief.

10.16 Cumulative Remedies; Calculation of Damages.

(a) All rights, powers, remedies, benefits and privileges available under any provision of this Agreement to any party hereunder are in addition to and cumulative of any and all rights, powers, remedies, benefits and privileges available to such party under all other provisions of this Agreement, and the election of a remedy by a party under any provision of this Agreement does not preclude such party from pursuing any other remedies available to it hereunder, whether concurrently therewith or from time to time. By way of illustration only, in the event that Buyer believes that there have been breaches of the representations and warranties in both Section 2.5(a)(iii) and Section 2.5(c), it may elect to pursue its claim with respect to either or both of such provisions, concurrently or otherwise. Nothing in this section shall be read or interpreted to provide any party with a “double recovery” with respect to any losses or damages suffered thereby.

(b) The parties to this Agreement acknowledge and agree that the mechanism for determining the amount of “Buyer’s GAAP Losses” as set forth in the definition thereof is unique to Buyer’s GAAP Losses and that neither Buyer, the Company nor the Members shall be limited by such mechanism as to the appropriate measure, methodology of calculation or amount of losses (whether Seller Losses or Buyer’s Losses other than Buyer’s GAAP Losses) under any other provision of this Agreement.

10.17 Prorations. Any amounts prepaid by the Members under the Real Property Leases and Contracts with respect to any period after the Effective Date shall be reimbursed to the Members at the Closing or as soon thereafter as practicable. At the Closing or as soon thereafter as practicable, the Members shall reimburse Buyer for any amounts due under such Real Property Leases and Contracts with respect to any period before the Effective Date and paid by Buyer.

10.18 Further Assurances. From time to time after the Closing, at the request of any other party but at the expense of the requesting party, Parent, Buyer, the Company or the Members, as the case may be, will execute and deliver any such other instruments of conveyance, assignment and transfer, and take such other action as the other party may reasonably request in order to consummate or evidence the transactions contemplated hereby.

10.19 Mail Received After Closing. Following the Closing, Buyer may receive and open all mail addressed to the Members at the Company’s address (unless such mail is clearly and prominently marked “confidential” or “to be opened only by addressee” or with similar instructions) and deal with the contents thereof in its discretion to the extent that such mail and the contents thereof relate to the business, operations, assets and/or properties of the Company.

10.20 Community Property. If any of the Company Interests are owned at the Closing by any Member as community property with his or her spouse, the sale of the Company Interests under this Agreement shall include the Member’s interest and the community property interest of the Member’s spouse. The spouse of the respective Member joins in this Agreement, as evidenced by his or her signature hereto, to acknowledge his or her consent to this Agreement and to the sale of any community property interest that he or she might have in the Company Interests held by his or her spouse.
