transfer and assignment been completed; provided that nothing contained in this Section 1.6 shall require an Operating Company or any Seller to (i) make any payments to enter into such replacement agreements, (ii) guarantee any obligations of Buyer in connection with any such replacement agreement or (iii) enter into any replacement agreement.

ARTICLE 2

PURCHASE PRICE AND ADJUSTMENT

2.1 Purchase Price. Upon and subject to the terms herein, Buyer will pay to the Company (a) the amount of $26,273,409.00, plus (b) the Escrowed Shares (to be deposited in escrow with the Escrow Agent pursuant to Section 2.2(a)) plus (c) the Stock Consideration (the “Initial Purchase Price”), as such amount is adjusted pursuant to the terms herein (such amount, as adjusted pursuant to any term herein, is the final purchase price for the Acquired Assets and is referred to herein as the “Purchase Price”).

2.2 Payment of Initial Purchase Price at Closing and Related Payments. Upon and subject to the terms herein, at Closing and on the Closing Date, Buyer will pay the Initial Purchase Price as follows:

(a) Buyer will deposit into escrow with the Escrow Agent, 114,942 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Buyer (“Buyer Common Stock”) (collectively, the “Escrowed Shares”), to be held by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the terms hereof and the Escrow Agreement;

(b) Buyer will pay in full, on the Company’s behalf, the professional fees listed in Exhibit 2.2(b);

(d) Buyer will pay to the Company $26,273,409.00 (which includes cash in lieu of fractional shares of Buyer Common Stock in accordance with Section 2.4, without interest), by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account that the Company designates in writing at least two Business Days before the Closing Date.

2.3 Purchase Price Adjustment.

(a) Buyer’s Preparation of the Statement. Within 60 days after the Closing Date, Buyer will prepare and deliver to the Company a statement (the “Statement”) setting forth, in reasonable detail, Buyer’s determination of Net Working Capital. The Company will assist Buyer and its representatives in all reasonable respects in preparing the Statement and will give Buyer and its representatives reasonable access at all reasonable times to the personnel, properties, books and records of the Company and its Affiliates for such purpose and the other matters in this Section 2.3. Such 60-day period will be extended, to the extent of any unreasonable delay by the Company in providing such assistance or access. The final determination of Net Working Capital pursuant to this Section 2.3 is “Final Net Working Capital.”

(b) The Company’s Response to the Statement. The Net Working Capital in the Statement will become final and binding upon the Parties (and become Final Net Working Capital) 30 days after Buyer gives the Statement to the Company, unless the Company gives written notice, in reasonable detail, of its disagreement (a “Notice of Disagreement”) to Buyer before the end of such 30-day period. The Company may give a Notice of Disagreement only if (1) assuming all of the Company’s assertions therein were sustained, the Purchase Price would be higher than if the Company had not given such Notice of Disagreement to Buyer and (2) such Notice of Disagreement states the Company’s determination of Net Working Capital. The only disagreements that may be stated in a Notice of Disagreement are those that relate to errors in mathematical computation. If the Company gives a valid Notice of Disagreement before the end of such 30-day period stated above, then Final Net Working Capital (as finally determined in accordance with clause (A) or (B) below) will become final and binding on the Parties upon the earlier of (A) the date the Parties resolve in writing any differences they have with respect to all items specified in such Notice of Disagreement or (B) the date any disputed items are finally resolved in writing by the Arbitrator pursuant to Section 2.3(c).

(c) Resolving Matters in Notice of Disagreement. During the 30-day period after a valid Notice of Disagreement is given, the Company and Buyer will attempt to resolve in writing any differences that they have regarding any item in such Notice of Disagreement. If, at the end of such 30-day period, the Company and Buyer have not reached agreement on all such items, then either Party may require that the items that remain in dispute be promptly submitted to an arbitrator (the “Arbitrator”) for review and resolution. The Arbitrator will be a public accounting firm agreed upon by the Parties in writing; provided that the Arbitrator will not be an accounting firm used by either the Company or Buyer (or any of either’s Affiliates) within the preceding three years for audit or valuation purposes. If the Parties cannot agree upon an Arbitrator within 15 Business Days after first attempting to do so, then the Arbitrator will be selected by lot from a list of four potential Arbitrators remaining after the Company nominates three, Buyer nominates three, and the Company and Buyer each eliminate one potential Arbitrator from the other’s nominations. The Arbitrator will determine procedures for such arbitration, subject to the terms hereof. The Arbitrator will only consider the items that remain in dispute. The Arbitrator will render a decision resolving such items in dispute within 30 days after completion of submissions to the Arbitrator. The Arbitrator will determine Final Net Working Capital solely based on submissions made by the Company and Buyer consistent with the terms hereof (and not by independent review). The Arbitrator will not assign a value to any item that is greater than the greater value for such item claimed by either the Company or Buyer nor less than the lesser value for such item claimed by either of such Parties.

(d) Allocation of Fees and Expenses. The Company and Buyer will each pay its own fees and expenses regarding such arbitration and half of the fees and expenses of the Arbitrator.

(e) Adjustment to Purchase Price Based on Final Net Working Capital. The Purchase Price will be, and automatically will be adjusted to be, the Initial Purchase Price, (1) increased by the entire amount, if any, by which Final Net Working Capital exceeds Target Net Working Capital, if Final Net Working Capital exceeds 105.0% of Target Net Working Capital or (2) decreased by the entire amount, if any, by which Final Net Working Capital is less than Target Net Working Capital, if Final Net Working Capital is less than 95.0% of Target Net Working Capital. However, if no such adjustment is required pursuant to this Section 2.3(e), then the Purchase Price will equal the Initial Purchase Price.

(f) Reconciliation Payment. Within five Business Days after Final Net Working Capital becomes final and binding on the Parties, the following will occur (with the payments in this Section below being made by wire transfer of immediately available funds):

(1) if the Initial Purchase Price (as paid at Closing) is less than the Purchase Price (as adjusted, if at all, under Section 2.3(e)), then Buyer will pay to the Company the amount of such difference in cash, without interest; or

(2) if the Initial Purchase Price (as paid at Closing) is more than the Purchase Price (as adjusted, if at all, under Section 2.3(e)), then the Company will pay to Buyer the amount of such excess in cash, without interest.

(g) Target Net Working Capital Defined. “Target Net Working Capital” means the amount of $(656,603.00).

(h) Net Working Capital Defined. “Net Working Capital” means an amount equal to (x) Acquired Assets that are current assets in the categories set forth on Exhibit 2.3(h) minus (y) Assumed Liabilities that are liabilities in the categories set forth on Exhibit 2.3(h), in each case determined as of the Effective Time in accordance with GAAP calculated in the same manner as calculated historically by the Company.

(i) Prorated Item Reconciliation. In addition to the foregoing matters in this Article 2, the Company and Buyer will pro rate, as of the Effective Time, based on the number of days elapsed in the applicable period, all Prorated Items (“Prorated Item” means: (A) rent, utility, ad valorem Tax regarding real estate that is a direct or indirect obligation pursuant to the terms of the Assumed Real Property Lease Agreement, common area maintenance, marketing or advertising allocation or other similar amount paid or payable with respect to the Assumed Real Property Lease Agreement; (B) prepaid cost or expense based on a period of time; or (C) charge or payment based on a period of time of performance or possession under any lease (other than the Assumed Real Property Lease Agreement), service Contract, maintenance Contract, marketing or advertising Contract or similar Contract). Within five Business Days after Final Net Working Capital becomes final and binding upon the Parties, Buyer will pay to the Company or the Company will pay to Buyer (as applicable) the amount necessary to allocate the Prorated Items between the Company and Buyer under this Section 2.3(i) such that each has paid its pro rata share thereof. Such payment will be made, without interest, by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

(j) Allocation of Purchase Price. Each Party will allocate the Purchase Price in accordance with Exhibit 2.3(j) and Applicable Law (including that each Party will cause each of its applicable Affiliates to do so). After Closing, the Parties will, and will cause their respective Affiliates to, make consistent use of such allocation, as adjusted to reflect any, if any, adjustments needed to remain consistent with Final Net Working Capital and the resulting adjustment to the Purchase Price and the Prorated Item allocation, for all Tax purposes. With respect to such allocation, as so adjusted, each Party will (1) be bound by such allocation, (2) act in accordance with such allocation in the preparation of all financial statements and the filing of all Tax Returns and in the course of any Tax audit, Tax review or other Tax Proceeding relating thereto, (3) take no position and cause its Affiliates to take no position inconsistent with such allocation for Tax purposes (including in connection with any Proceeding), unless in each case otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of section 1313(a) of the Code, and (4) not later than 30 days before the filing of its IRS Forms 8594 (whether initial or supplemental) relating to the transactions contemplated herein, deliver to each other Party a true, correct and complete copy of such IRS Forms.

2.4 Fractional Shares. No fraction of a share of Buyer Common Stock will be issued pursuant to Section 2.2. Instead, the Company shall receive in lieu thereof from Buyer an amount of cash (rounded to the nearest whole cent, with .5 being rounded up) equal to the product of (i) such fraction, multiplied by (ii) $33.06.

ARTICLE 3

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE OPERATING COMPANIES AND SELLERS

Each Operating Company and each Seller, jointly and severally, hereby represents and warrants to Buyer as follows:

3.1 Organization and Good Standing.

Each Operating Company is a duly organized and validly existing corporation in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it was organized, as is listed in Schedule 3.1. Each Operating Company is duly qualified and in good standing to do business as a foreign limited liability company in each jurisdiction in which the ownership or leasing of its properties or assets or the conduct of its business requires such qualification (with each such jurisdiction being listed in Schedule 3.1), except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing will not materially and adversely affect any Operating Company’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated herein. Each Operating Company has full corporate or limited liability company (as applicable) power and authority to own and lease its properties and assets and conduct its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted. Other than Edifice Europe and Edifice Japan, the Company does not hold any equity interest, directly or indirectly, of any other Person. Neither Edifice Europe nor Edifice Japan holds any equity interest, directly or indirectly, of any other Person. Each Operating Company has delivered to Buyer a true, correct and complete copy of the Organizational Documents of such Operating Company. Schedule 3.1 lists the officers and directors of (or any person holding a similar position with) each Operating Company. The minute books for each Operating Company (which contain the records of meetings of the equity holders and board of directors (and any committees of any such board) of the respective Operating Company) and the ownership records for each Operating Company have been delivered to Buyer and are true, correct and complete. Such minute books record therein all actions taken by such equity holders, boards and committees, as such, that have been documented and no other material action of any of them, as such, has been taken that is not recorded in any such minute book. No Operating Company is in default under or in violation of any provision of any of their Organizational Documents.

3.2 Capitalization. Schedule 3.2 lists (a) all equity holders of Cornwell Corp. and all equity interests of Cornwell Corp. held by each of them, (b) all equity holders of the Company and all equity interests of the Company held by each of them, (c) the equity interests held by the Company, directly or indirectly, in any other Person, if any, and (d) each Company Subsidiary.

All of the issued and outstanding equity interests of each Company Subsidiary listed in Schedule 3.2 are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. No equity interest of any Company Subsidiary was issued in violation of any Organizational Document of such Company Subsidiary, any Applicable Law or any pre-emptive right (or other similar right) of any Person.

(j) Each Operating Company has disclosed on all applicable Tax Returns all positions taken therein that could give rise to a substantial understatement of federal Income Tax within the meaning of section 6662 of the Code.

ARTICLE 5

CERTAIN COVENANTS

5.1 Certain Actions to Close Transactions. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Party will use its reasonable best efforts to fulfill, and to cause to be satisfied, the conditions in Article 6 (but with no obligation to waive any such condition) and to consummate and effect the transactions contemplated herein, including to cooperate with and assist each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the foregoing.

5.2 Further Assurances. If after Closing any further action is reasonably necessary, proper or desirable to carry out any purpose of this Agreement, then each Party will take such further action (including the execution and delivery of further documents) as any other Party reasonably requests to carry out such purpose (including that the Company will, upon Buyer’s request, take all actions necessary to transfer the registration and control of all domain names to Buyer, including the transfer of all passwords and other means of access). The foregoing will be at the expense of such requesting Party, except to the extent such requesting Party is entitled to indemnification therefor or to the extent this Agreement otherwise allocates such expense to any other Party.

5.3 Confidentiality and Publicity.

(a) Confidentiality Agreement. Subject to the other terms of this Section 5.3, the Mutual Confidentiality Agreement between Buyer and the Company, dated April 23, 2012 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), will remain in full force and effect pursuant to its terms, except that, after the Closing Date, Information (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement), for purposes of the obligations of Buyer under the Confidentiality Agreement, will be deemed not to refer to any information then primarily relating to the Business.

(b) Confidentiality. At all times after Closing, each Seller and each Operating Company will, and each Seller and each Operating Company will cause each of their Affiliates to, keep confidential and not disclose and not use, any confidential, proprietary or other non-public information of the Business, except to the extent such information becomes available to such Seller, such Operating Company or such Affiliate after Closing as a result of disclosure not known by such recipient to have been improper. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, if a Seller or an Operating Company or its respective employees or Affiliates are requested or required by Applicable Law or a court order (such as by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information, subpoena, civil investigative demand, or similar process) to disclose any such information, it is agreed that such Person will provide the Buyer with prompt written notice of such request(s) so that the Buyer may seek an appropriate protective order. If, failing the entry of a protective order, a Seller or an Operating Company or their respective employees or Affiliates are, in the opinion of such Person’s counsel compelled to disclose such information under pain of liability for contempt or other censure or penalty, such Person or its employees or Affiliates may disclose only that portion of such information as is legally required without liability hereunder; provided, that such Person agrees to exercise its reasonable efforts to obtain assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such information.

(c) Publicity. Except as stated in this Section 5.3(c), each Seller and each Operating Company will not, and each Seller and each Operating Company will cause each of their Affiliates not to, make any public release or announcement regarding this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated herein without the prior written approval thereof of Buyer. Buyer and the Company will cooperate with each other in issuing, promptly after Closing, a joint press release (with mutually agreed upon text) that announces the Parties’ entry into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein generally.

(d) Transaction Confidentiality Agreements. After the Closing Date, to the extent reasonably requested by Buyer, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to enforce the terms of each Transaction Confidentiality Agreement for Buyer’s benefit; provided that, within three Business Days after the Company informs Buyer thereof, Buyer will reimburse the Company for all reasonable costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) of the Company or any of its Affiliates arising out of, relating to or resulting from such enforcement. “Transaction Confidentiality Agreement” means a confidentiality agreement that the Company entered into after January 1, 2011 with any prospective purchaser (other than Buyer) of any Operating Company or the Business.

5.4 Employee Matters.

(a) Liabilities. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding any other term herein or transaction contemplated hereby, (1) Buyer will not assume and will not otherwise have transferred to it any Liability of any Operating Company or of any Operating Company’s Affiliates with respect to any employee or former employee of any Operating Company or any such Affiliate (or with regard to any dependent or family member, or former dependent or family member, of such an employee or former employee), including any Liability with respect to any compensation, workers’ compensation, sick leave, vacation, other time off or other Employee Plan (other than the Foreign Employee Plans) or under or regarding COBRA, and (2) this Agreement does not create any right of employment in any individual. Without implying any limitation on any Operating Company’s Liabilities, each Operating Company will satisfy when due (A) all Liabilities described in the preceding clause (a)(1) of this Section, and (B) with respect to Liabilities under or regarding COBRA, all Liabilities to and with respect to each individual described in such clause (a)(1) who is an “M&A qualified beneficiary” with respect to the transactions contemplated herein (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation section 54.4980B-9, Q&A-4), specifically by maintaining a group health plan that will offer COBRA continuation coverage to such individuals for the maximum coverage period required under COBRA, in each case regardless of any Applicable Law that may impose or attempt to impose any such Liability on Buyer or any of its Affiliates.

(b) Insurance. If Buyer requests, then each Operating Company will cooperate with Buyer, at Buyer’s expense, by taking any action reasonably requested by Buyer (whether before, at or after Closing) with respect to any health, dental, group life, short term disability, long term disability or workers compensation insurance coverage with respect to any employee or former employee of any Operating Company, including transferring applicable group insurance policies or rights thereunder to Buyer (if permitted by the insurer and requested by Buyer), to assist Buyer in providing replacement employee benefit plan coverage or continuity for employees.

(c) Hiring of Employees. The Company acknowledges that, before Closing, the Company permitted Buyer to conduct interviews with, offer post-Closing employment to, complete employment-related documents regarding and explain Buyer’s employment-related rules and benefits to, employees of the Company. In connection with and after Closing, the Company will permit and facilitate reasonable access to all of the Company’s employees for Buyer to have the right to take any of the actions described in this Section (including continuation of the foregoing actions). On and after the Closing Date, each Seller and the Company will cooperate with Buyer with respect to each employee of the Company that Buyer wishes to hire, including by promptly terminating such employee’s employment with the Company (in connection with Closing or thereafter) and not rehiring such employee or using the services of such employee in a manner similar to employment. Nothing in this Agreement, or in any Operating Company’s past or current practices, will be deemed to obligate Buyer to continue any employment, or dictate the terms or conditions of any employment, for any period.

(d) Sales Commissions. Without implying any limitation on any Operating Company’s Liabilities, each Operating Company will satisfy in full all Liabilities of such Operating Company regarding sales commissions and similar payments to each employee, sales representative and similar Person that was employed or otherwise engaged at any time on or before the Closing Date by such Operating Company (regardless of any Applicable Law that may impose or attempt to impose any such Liability on Buyer or any of its Affiliates). Each Operating Company will determine and pay such amounts owed in a manner and at a time that causes each recipient and proposed recipient to be paid in full such that such recipients and proposed recipients are not disadvantaged (including that they are not paid less or later in time) as a direct or indirect result of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement (including that: such payments will be made in full, even if payments are made by the applicable third party after Closing and even though such recipients and proposed recipients may cease to be so employed or otherwise engaged at or after Closing; and it will be assumed (for purposes of this Section) that the purchase of the Accounts Receivable hereunder is payment by the applicable third party of all of the related obligations). No Operating Company will, or will make any effort to, directly or indirectly, by Proceeding or otherwise, collect or recover any overpayment of draws of sales commissions, or any other overpayment by such Operating Company to any Person who is a current or former employee, sales representative or similar Person of such Operating Company.

(e) No Amendment of Benefits nor Third-Party Beneficiary. Without limiting Section 8.4 or the foregoing terms of this Section 5.4, (1) no Employee Plan or other employee benefit is or will be deemed to be amended by any term hereof and (2) no Person, including any employee (or dependent thereof) of any Operating Company, is a third party beneficiary of any term of this Section 5.4.

5.5 Satisfaction of Unassumed Liabilities. After Closing, at the Company’s expense, the Company will satisfy all Liabilities of the Company (that are not Assumed Liabilities) in a manner that is not detrimental to any of the relationships of the Business (including with lessors, employees, Governmental Authorities, licensors, customers and suppliers).

5.6 Certain Tax and Unclaimed Property Matters.

(a) General Requirements for the Company. The Company will file and pay when due or cause to be so filed and paid, all Tax Returns and Taxes and unclaimed property returns and filings with respect to the Company or the Company’s operation of the Business for three closing tax periods. Buyer will file and pay when due, or cause to be so filed and paid, all Tax Returns and Taxes and unclaimed property returns and filings with respect to Buyer or Buyer’s operation of the Business.

(b) Payment of Taxes and Filing Responsibility. The Company will prepare and timely file (or cause to be prepared and timely filed) all (1) Tax Returns with respect to Edifice Europe and Edifice Japan required to be filed on, before or after the Closing Date (after taking into account extensions therefor) for Pre-Closing Tax Periods and (2) consolidated, combined or unitary Tax Returns that include Edifice Europe or Edifice Japan that are required to be filed before, on or after the Closing Date. The Company will give Buyer a copy of any Tax Return (whether original or amended) with respect to Edifice Europe or Edifice Japan prepared (or caused to be prepared) by the Company after Closing as soon as practicable after the preparation, but before the filing, thereof for Buyer’s review and comment. The Company will consider in good faith any changes to such Tax Return that are requested by Buyer. Buyer will prepare and timely file (or cause to be prepared and timely filed) all Tax Returns with respect to Edifice Europe and Edifice Japan that the Company is not obligated to file (or cause to be filed) pursuant to this Section 5.6(b). The Company will satisfy (or cause to be satisfied) in full when due all Taxes with respect to Edifice Europe and Edifice Japan with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period (all of such Taxes being the “Pre-Closing Taxes”). Buyer will satisfy (or cause to be satisfied) in full when due all Tax Liabilities with respect to any period that is not a Pre-Closing Tax Period. If Buyer is required under this Section 5.6(b) to file a Tax Return that involves Pre-Closing Taxes, then no later than

10 Business Days before the filing of any such Tax Return, the Company will pay to Buyer an amount equal to the amount of Taxes shown due on such Tax Return for which the Company is obligated with respect to such Tax Return. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will only be liable for any such Taxes described in this Section 5.6(b) to the extent that such Taxes exceed the sum of (1) the amount, if any, of estimated Taxes paid for such Taxes on or before the Closing Date plus (2) the amount, if any, accrued for such Taxes in Final Net Working Capital.

(c) Transfer Taxes. Notwithstanding Sections 5.6(a)-(b), the Company will file and pay when due or cause to be so filed and paid all Tax Returns regarding Transfer Taxes and all Transfer Taxes, regardless of the Person on whom such Transfer Taxes are imposed by Applicable Law.

Each Party will, and each Party will cause its applicable Affiliates to, cooperate in all reasonable respects with respect to Tax and unclaimed property matters and provide one another with such information as is reasonably requested to enable the requesting Party to complete and file all Tax Returns it may be required to file (or cause to be filed) with respect to the Business, to respond to Tax audits, inquiries or other Tax Proceedings and to otherwise satisfy Tax requirements. Such cooperation also will include promptly forwarding copies (to the extent related thereto) of (1) relevant Tax notices, forms or other communications received from or sent to any Governmental Authority (whether or not requested), and (2) reasonably requested copies of all relevant Tax Returns together with accompanying schedules and related workpapers, documents relating to rulings, audits or other Tax determinations by any Governmental Authority and records concerning the ownership and Tax basis of property.

5.7 Covenant Not to Compete and Related Covenants.

(a) To further ensure that Buyer receives the expected benefits of acquiring the Business, the Company and each Seller agrees that (subject to the other terms of this Section 5.7), throughout the period that begins at the Effective Time and ends on the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Non-Compete Period”), the Company and each Seller will not, and the Company and each Seller will cause each Affiliate of the Company and such Seller not to, directly or indirectly,

(1) own, operate, be a partner, stockholder, co-venturer or otherwise invest in, lend money to, consult with, manage or render services to, act as agent for, license any Intellectual Property to, or acquire or hold any interest in, any Person that collects, analyzes, sells, markets, provides or distributes point-of-sale data or electronic data interchange anywhere in the world, except that nothing herein prohibits the Company, such Seller or any Affiliate of the Company or such Seller from owning or holding less than 1% of the outstanding shares of any class of stock that is regularly traded on a recognized domestic or foreign securities exchange or over-the-counter market or holding the Stock Consideration;

(2) employ or attempt to employ any individual who is now or later becomes a director, officer or employee of Buyer, Edifice Europe, Edifice Japan or any of their Affiliates or otherwise interfere with or disrupt any such employment relationship (contractual or other) of Buyer, Edifice Europe, Edifice Japan or any of their Affiliates;

(3) (A) solicit, request, advise or induce any then-current or potential customer, supplier or other business contact of Buyer, Edifice Europe, Edifice Japan or any of their Affiliates to cancel, curtail or otherwise adversely change its business or relationship with Buyer, Edifice Europe, Edifice Japan or any of their Affiliates or (B) fail to refer all material customer inquiries relating to the Business to Buyer; or

(4) criticize or disparage in any manner or by any means (whether written or oral, express or implied) Buyer, Edifice Europe, Edifice Japan or any of their Affiliates or any aspect of Buyer’s, Edifice Europe’s, Edifice Japan’s or any of their Affiliate’s management, policies, operations, products, services, practices or personnel.

(b) The Company and each of the Sellers specifically acknowledge and agree that (1) this Section 5.7 is reasonable and necessary to ensure that Buyer receives the expected benefits of acquiring the Business, (2) Buyer has refused to enter into this Agreement in the absence of this Section 5.7 and (3) breach of this Section 5.7 will harm Buyer to such an extent that monetary damages alone would be an inadequate remedy and Buyer would not have an adequate remedy at law. Therefore, in the event of a breach by the Company or any Seller of this Section 5.7, (A) Buyer (in addition to all other remedies Buyer may have) will be entitled to seek an injunction and other equitable relief (without posting any bond or other security) restraining the Company or such Seller (as applicable) from committing or continuing such breach and to enforce specifically this Agreement and its terms and (B) for the Company or such Seller (as applicable), the duration of the Non-Compete Period will be extended beyond its then-scheduled termination date for a period equal to the duration of such breach.

5.8 Intercompany Accounts. Each Operating Company will cause all intercompany accounts in effect immediately before the Effective Time between each Operating Company, on the one hand, and any equity holder of any Operating Company or any of such equity holder’s Affiliates, on the other hand, in each case that after the Effective Time will relate to any Acquired Asset, Assumed Liability or the Business, to be paid in full at or before Closing.

5.9 Name Change. Within 20 Business Days after the Closing Date, the Company will and will cause each of its Affiliates to (a) amend its applicable Organizational Documents, and take all other actions necessary, to change its name and all names under which it does business to a name that does not include any Restricted Word and (b) give to Buyer a true, correct and complete copy of the filings with the applicable Governmental Authorities showing that such name changes occurred. “Restricted Word” means any of the following: (1) the word “Edifice”; (2) any word that is a variation of such word or any word that is confusingly similar to such word; or (3) any word that could reasonably be expected to imply any affiliation with Buyer, Edifice Europe, Edifice Japan or any of their Affiliates. Within 15 Business Days after the Closing Date and at all times thereafter, the Company will and will cause each of its Affiliates to not use a name that includes any Restricted Word, including on letterhead or other correspondence, employee business cards, accounts or signage.

5.11 Insurance and Insurance Proceeds. If after Closing, Buyer reasonably determines that any Liability that is an Assumed Liability or Loss with respect to any Acquired Asset, Assumed Liability or the Business is covered by any insurance policy of the Company (or any Affiliate of the Company), then Buyer may give a notice to the Company that states such determination and describes the foregoing in reasonable detail. If Buyer gives such a notice and the Company (or its applicable Affiliate) has insurance policies in place, then the following will apply:

(a) The applicable Parties will cooperate in all reasonable respects to determine if the following conditions are satisfied: (A) such Liability or Loss is covered by any such insurance policy of the Company (or any of its Affiliates), and (B) the Company (or any of its Affiliates) has the right to obtain any insurance proceeds with respect thereto.

(b) If all of the conditions in the preceding clause (a) are satisfied or there is a reasonable likelihood that all of such conditions are satisfied, then, at Buyer’s expense, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such proceeds from the provider of such insurance.

(c) To the extent the Company (or any of its Affiliates) actually recovers any such insurance proceeds (which, for the avoidance of doubt, would be the amount in excess of any deductible, retention or self-insurance amount), then the Company will pay (or cause such Affiliate to pay) to Buyer an amount equal to the difference (if positive) of (A) such amount of such recovered proceeds (but not to exceed the amount of such Liability or Loss) minus (B) the costs and expenses of the Company (or any of its Affiliates) incurred in connection with the foregoing (to the extent not already reimbursed by Buyer), including with respect to any Tax.

5.12 Maintenance of Existence. The Company will preserve and maintain its corporate existence in good standing under Applicable Law of the State of New Jersey for a period of at least five years after the Closing Date.

Neither Sellers Agent nor any of his agents or employees will be liable to any Person for any error of judgment, or any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken, under this Agreement, except in the case of his bad faith or willful misconduct. Sellers Agent may consult with legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts selected by him and

In all matters relating to this Section, Sellers Agent will be the only party entitled to assert the rights of Sellers. Notwithstanding the following sentence, Buyer and the Escrow Agent will be entitled to rely on all statements, actions, representations and decisions of Sellers Agent as being the binding acts of all Sellers or any of them, notwithstanding any communication from any Seller to the contrary (other than communication regarding termination or replacement of Sellers Agent pursuant to the Escrow Agreement and this Section). By executing and delivering this Agreement, each Seller confirms and ratifies all that Sellers Agent will do or cause to be done in good faith as Sellers Agent.

(b) Sellers Agent may resign upon written notice to Sellers.

If such payment is properly made, then Buyer will have no other responsibility or Liability with respect thereto and Buyer will be entitled to rely conclusively and without independent verification on Sellers Agent making further payment, and Sellers Agent will make all of such payments, each in the proper amount, to the proper Persons.

7.4 Certain Survival Periods.

(a) Survival of Representations and Warranties. Subject to Section 7.4(b), each representation or warranty herein will survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and remain in full force and effect until the date that is 15 months after the Closing Date, at which time such representation or warranty will expire and terminate and no indemnification obligation will be associated therewith or based thereon, except that each Special Representation will survive until all Liability hereunder relating thereto is barred by all applicable statutes of limitation.

(b) Survival of Representations and Warranties Until Final Determination. Notwithstanding Section 7.4(a), for each claim for indemnification hereunder regarding a representation or warranty that is made before expiration of such representation or warranty, such claim and associated right to indemnification (including any right to pursue such indemnification, including via any Proceeding) will not terminate before final determination and satisfaction of such claim.

(c) Survival of Covenants and Agreements. Each covenant and agreement (i.e., other than representations and warranties) herein, and all associated rights to indemnification, will survive Closing and will continue in full force thereafter until all Liability hereunder relating thereto is barred by all applicable statutes of limitation, subject to any applicable limitation stated herein.

7.5 Notice of Claims and Procedures.

(a) Notice of Claims. A Party entitled to indemnification hereunder (the “Claiming Party”) will give the Party obligated to provide such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) prompt notice of any claim, for which such Claiming Party proposes to demand indemnification, (1) by a Person that is not a Party nor an Other Indemnified Person (such a claim being a “Third Party Claim” and such notice of such Third Party Claim being the “Initial Claim Notice”) or (2) that does not involve a Third Party Claim, in each case specifying the amount and nature of such claim (to the extent known). Thereafter, the Claiming Party will give the Indemnifying Party, promptly after the Claiming Party’s (or any of its applicable Other Indemnified Person’s) receipt or delivery thereof, copies of all documents (including court papers) received or delivered by the Claiming Party (or any such Other Indemnified Person) relating to any such Third Party Claim. The failure to promptly give such notice or to promptly give such copies will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any Liability hereunder, except if the Indemnifying Party was materially prejudiced thereby, but only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party demonstrates that it was materially prejudiced thereby.

(b) Access and Cooperation. Each Party will, and will cause its Other Indemnified Persons to, cooperate and assist in all reasonable respects regarding such Third Party Claim, including by promptly making available to such other Party (and its legal counsel and other professional advisers with a reasonable need to know) all books and records of such Person relating to such Third Party Claim, subject to reasonable confidentiality precautions.

(1) Election to Conduct Defense. Promptly after receiving an Initial Claim Notice under Section 7.5(a), the Indemnifying Party will have the option to conduct the Defense of such Third Party Claim, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, except if (A) the aggregate amount of the potential obligations of the Claiming Party (or its Other Indemnified Persons) regarding such Third Party Claim exceeds the maximum obligations of the Indemnifying Party under this Agreement regarding such Third Party Claim, (B) it is reasonably likely that such Third Party Claim will adversely affect the Claiming Party (or any of its Other Indemnified Persons), other than as a result of money damages, or (C) the Indemnifying Party fails to provide the Claiming Party with evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Claiming Party that the Indemnifying Party has the financial resources to actively and diligently conduct the Defense of such Third Party Claim and fulfill the Indemnifying Party’s indemnification obligations hereunder with respect thereto. To elect to conduct such Defense, the Indemnifying Party must give written notice of such election to the Claiming Party within 10 days (or within the shorter period, if any, during which a Defense must be commenced for the preservation of rights) after the Claiming Party gives the corresponding Initial Claim Notice to the Indemnifying Party (otherwise, such right to conduct such Defense will be deemed waived). If the Indemnifying Party validly makes such election, it will nonetheless lose such right to conduct such Defense if it fails to continue to actively and diligently conduct such Defense.

(2) Conduct of Defense, Participation and Settlement. If the Indemnifying Party conducts the Defense of such Third Party Claim, then (A) the Claiming Party may participate, at its own expense (except that the Indemnifying Party will be responsible for the fees and expenses of the Claiming Party’s counsel (but not more than one law firm per jurisdiction) if the Claiming Party reasonably concludes that counsel to the Indemnifying Party has a conflict of interest), in such Defense (including any Proceeding regarding such Third Party Claim) and will have the right to receive copies of all notices, pleadings or other similar submissions regarding such Defense, (B) the Indemnifying Party will keep the Claiming Party reasonably informed of all matters material to such Defense and Third Party Claim at all stages thereof, (C) the Claiming Party will not (and will cause its Other Indemnified Persons not to) admit Liability with respect to, or compromise or settle, such Third Party Claim without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld), (D) there will be no compromise or settlement of such Third Party Claim without the consent of the Claiming Party (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld) and (E) the Indemnifying Party’s election to conduct the Defense of such Third Party Claim will conclusively establish the Indemnifying Party’s obligation to indemnify the Claiming Party with respect to such Third Party Claim hereunder.

(3) Indemnifying Party Does Not Conduct Defense. If the Indemnifying Party does not have the option to conduct the Defense of such Third Party Claim or does not validly elect such option or does not preserve such option (including by failing to commence such Defense within 10 days following receipt of such Initial Claim Notice or within the shorter period, if any, during which a Defense must be commenced for the preservation of rights), then the Claiming Party may conduct the Defense of such Third Party Claim in any manner that the Claiming Party reasonably deems appropriate, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party (subject to the other limitations of this Article 7), and the Claiming Party will have the right to compromise or settle such Third Party Claim without the consent of the Indemnifying Party.

7.6 Escrow. To secure the indemnification obligations of the Company and each Seller under this Agreement, the Escrowed Shares will be deposited into an escrow account (the “Escrow Account”) pursuant to Section 2.2(a) and the terms of an Escrow Agreement in a form mutually agreeable to the Company, Buyer and the Escrow Agent (the “Escrow Agreement”). Disbursements from the Escrow Account will occur pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement.

8.9 Severability; Blue-Pencil. The terms of this Agreement will, where possible, be interpreted and enforced so as to sustain their legality and enforceability, read as if they cover only the specific situation to which they are being applied and enforced to the fullest extent permissible under Applicable Law.
