(the “Estimated Closing Date Working Capital Statement”).

If the Seller disagrees with the calculation of the Actual Closing Date Working Capital Statement, it shall notify Purchaser of such disagreement in writing, setting forth in reasonable detail the particulars of such disagreement, within thirty (30) days after its receipt of the Actual Closing Date Working Capital Statement. In the event that the Seller does not provide such a notice of disagreement within such thirty (30) day period, the Seller shall be deemed to have accepted the Actual Closing Date Working Capital Statement, which shall be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes hereunder. In the event any such notice of disagreement is timely provided, Seller and the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts for a period of thirty (30) days (or such longer period as they may mutually agree) to resolve any disagreements with respect to the calculation of the Actual Closing Date Working Capital Statement. If, at the end of such period, they are unable to resolve such disagreements, then the Auditor shall resolve any remaining disagreements. The Auditor shall determine as promptly as practicable, but in any event within thirty (30) days of the date on which such dispute is referred to the Auditor, whether the Actual Closing Date Working Capital Statement was prepared in accordance with the Agreement and whether and to what extent, if any, the Actual Closing Date Working Capital Statement requires adjustment. The determination of the Auditor shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties. In the event that the Auditor’s determination of the Actual Closing Date Working Capital Statement is higher by more than seven percent (7%) from the Actual Closing Date Working Capital Statement originally submitted by the Purchaser, then Purchaser shall pay all costs and expenses of the Auditor. Otherwise, Seller shall pay all costs and expenses of the Auditor.
     3.4 Adjustments. Subject to this Section 3, the Consideration shall be adjusted to reflect any difference between the Actual Closing Date Working Capital Statement and the Estimated Closing Date Working Capital Statement. Upon final determination of Actual Closing Date Working Capital as provided in Section 3.3 above, (A) if Actual Closing Date Working Capital Statement is greater than the Estimated Closing Date Working Capital Statement, the Consideration shall be increased by the amount that the Actual Closing Date Working Capital Statement exceeds the Estimated Closing Date Working Capital Statement and Purchaser shall promptly, but no later than fifteen (15) Business Days after such final determination, pay to Seller the amount of such difference, together with interest thereon, from the Closing Date to the date of payment thereof, as set forth in Section 8.6 below, and (B) if Actual Closing Date Working Capital Statement is less than Estimated Closing Date Working Capital Statement, the Consideration shall be decreased by the amount that the Estimated Closing Date Working Capital Statement exceeds the Actual Closing Date Working Capital Statement and Seller shall promptly, but no later than fifteen (15) Business Days after such final determination, pay to Purchaser the amount of such difference, together with interest thereon, from the Closing Date to the date of payment thereof as set forth in Section 8.6 below.

If any legal proceeding or Third Party Claim shall be instituted or asserted by a party entitled to indemnification hereunder (the “Indemnitee”), Indemnitee shall notify the party obligated to indemnify the Indemnitee (the “Indemnitor”) in writing of said Third Party Claim. The failure of the Indemnitee to give reasonably prompt

19


 

notice thereof Claim shall not release, waive or otherwise affect Indemnitor’s obligations with respect thereto except to the extent that the Indemnitor is prejudiced as a result of such failure. Indemnitor shall have the right, at its expense, to be represented by counsel of its choice, and to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Third Party Claim. If Indemnitee elects to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Third Party Claim, it shall do so at its own expense and shall within 30 days notify Indemnitor whether or not it shall do so.

If Indemnitor shall assume the defense of any Third Party Claim, Indemnitee may participate, at its own expense, in the defense of such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that Indemnitee shall be entitled to participate in any such defense with separate counsel at the expense of Indemnitor if, (i) so requested by Indemnitor or (ii) in the reasonable mutual opinion of counsel to Indemnitee and Indemnitor, a conflict or potential conflict exists between the Indemnitee and the Indemnitor that would make such separate representation advisable. The Parties hereto agree to cooperate fully with each other in connection with the defense, negotiation or settlement of any such Third Party Claim, and the Party assuming the defense of any Third Party Claim shall keep the other Party reasonably informed at all times of the progress and development of its defense of and compromise efforts with respect thereto shall furnish the other Party with copies of all relevant pleadings, correspondence and other documents. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither Indemnitor nor Indemnitee shall, without the written consent of the other, settle or compromise any Third Party Claim or permit a default or consent to entry of any judgment unless (i) the claimant and such Party provide to the other Party an unqualified release from all liability in respect of the Third Party Claim and (ii) the settlement, compromise, or judgment involves only the payment of money damages by the Indemnitor and does not impose an injunction or other equitable relief on the Indemnitee or impose any restrictions on the operation of the business of the Company, Purchaser or its Affiliates.
     8.4 Decision, Judgment or Settlement. After any final decision, judgment or award shall have been rendered by a Government Authority of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of the time in which to appeal therefrom, or a settlement shall have been consummated, or the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee shall have arrived at a mutually binding agreement with respect to a Third Party Claim hereunder, the Indemnitee shall forward to Indemnitor notice of any Losses and other sums due and owing by the Indemnitor pursuant to this Agreement with respect to such matter.
     8.5 Limits on Liability:
          8.5.1 The liabilities of Seller or Purchaser under the Warranties shall cease twelve 12 months after Closing Date except: (i) all representations and warranties of Seller contained in Clause 4 of Schedule 7 (“Tax and Tax Returns”), Clause 7.8 of Schedule 7 (“Creation”), and Clause 13 of Schedule 7 (“Employee Benefit Plans”), (ii) those relating to or arising from the Wachovia Credit, and (iii) Seller’s obligation to indemnify the Purchaser for any Losses based upon or related to fraud, criminal wrongdoing, willful misconduct or knowing misrepresentation of Seller or any Group Company, shall survive until expiration of the

20


 

applicable statute of limitations; and (iv) matters which have been the subject of a written claim against Losses with reasonable supporting evidence (where available to the Indemnitee) made before such date by the Indemnitee to the Indemnitor, which shall survive until final resolution of such claim.
          8.5.2 Seller shall not have any obligation to indemnify Purchaser unless the Losses are provided in writing with supporting evidence (where available to Purchaser) and the amount of liability of the Seller to the Purchaser in respect of any one Claim exceeds US$5,000 (the “Minimum Claim Amount”), in which event the Seller shall be liable for the full amount of the Claim, provided, however, there shall be no liability for any Claims until the aggregate of all Claims exceeds US$40,000 (the “Threshold”), after which time Purchaser may recover Claims from the first dollar, but, subject to Section 8.5.3, in no event including any Claims which are under the Minimum Claim Amount.
          8.5.3 The aggregate amount of the Seller’ liability for all Losses under this Agreement shall be limited to an amount equal to the Consideration; provided, however, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.5.2, any Losses arising from or relating to the (a) Capitalization-related Warranties (Clause 2 of Schedule 7 “Capital Structure”), (b) Tax-related Warranties (Clause 4 of Schedule 7 “Tax and Tax Returns”), (c) Employee-related Warranties (Clause 13 of Schedule 7 “Employee Benefit Plans”); (d) the Wachovia Credit, (e) the Closing Date Debt, or (f) fraud, criminal wrongdoing, willful misconduct or knowing misrepresentation of the Company or Seller shall be subject to indemnification in full, on a first-dollar basis, without regard to the Threshold or the Minimum Claim Amount.
          8.5.4 In determining whether a representation or warranty has been breached for purposes of indemnification under this Section 8, the word “material” and “Material Adverse Effect” (or variations thereof) shall be disregarded, and the phrase “resulting in Losses in excess of $5,000 individually or $40,000 in the aggregate” (or substantially similar variations thereof) shall, as a measure of materiality, also be disregarded.
     8.6 Interest. Any amount due and payable under Section 3.4 and this Section 8 shall accrue interest from and after the date due until paid in full at the “prime” rate, as announced by The Wall Street Journal, Eastern Edition, in effect as of the date payment first became due, calculated based on a 365 day year and the actual number of days elapsed.
     8.7 Insurance. Any indemnified party may elect, but shall not be obligated, to recover under any insurance policies for any Losses. The Parties hereto agree that if such election is made by an indemnified party, any such indemnity payments made hereunder shall be reduced by the net amount any insurance payments actually received by Purchaser or the Company under any insurance policies.
     8.8 Holdback. Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars (US$750,000) of the Deposit (the “Holdback Funds”), shall be placed in an interest-bearing escrow account (the “Escrow Account”) with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. or another financial institution acceptable to the Parties in accordance with the terms of an escrow agreement to be agreed upon by the Parties, for making any payments, interest, penalties, or Losses related to failure of the Group (i) to pay any state income tax, sales tax, tangible personal property tax, and franchise tax or other Taxes or (ii)

21


 

to make certain Tax filings when due or payable or arising with respect to periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date or (iii) to qualify to do business or register with any state or local taxing authority in any jurisdiction which the Group was required prior to the Closing to be so qualified or registered, whether or not disclosed on Schedules 7.3.2, 7.4.1, 7.4.2 and 7.4.3 and for paying the reasonable fees and expenses in excess of Ten Thousand Dollars (US$10,000) incurred by Purchaser in connection with its tax advisors’ review and counsel as set forth in this Section 8.8 (the “Additional Tax Liabilities”). Subject to Section 8.8.1 and 8.8.2, the Company shall pay and satisfy the Additional Tax Liabilities from the Holdback Funds. For avoidance of doubt, the Company shall only be required to pay Taxes from the Holdback Funds those amounts for which Seller is responsible pursuant to Section 12.1.1 to the extent those amounts are specifically identified as Additional Tax Liabilities. With respect to the Additional Tax Liabilities, Seller shall: (i) keep Purchaser reasonably informed and consult seriously and in good faith with Purchaser and its tax advisors with respect to any issue relating to such Additional Tax Liabilities, (ii) provide Purchaser with copies of all correspondence, notices and other written materials received from any Government Authority and otherwise keep Purchaser and its tax advisors advised of significant developments in any claim with respect to such Additional Tax Liabilities and of significant communications involving representatives of the applicable Government Authority, (iii) provide Purchaser with a copy of any written submission to be sent to a Government Authority relating to Additional Tax Liability prior to the submission thereof, give diligent and good faith consideration to any comments or suggested revisions that Purchaser or its tax advisors may have with respect thereto and obtain the consent of Purchaser or its tax advisors prior to the submission thereof; and (iv) provide timely written notice to the Company to make payments to a Government Authority from the Holdback Funds (which payment shall be made by the Company within 10 Business Days of receiving such notice) along with any documentation and correspondence therewith, to satisfy any Additional Tax Liability.
          8.8.1 Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, Seller is and shall remain liable for the Additional Tax Liabilities in the event that Escrow Account is insufficient to fully satisfy the Additional Tax Liabilities. Seller shall pay when due any such amounts in excess of the Holdback Funds and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Group Company from any such Additional Tax Liabilities as provided in Section 12.
          8.8.2 Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, Seller shall not, without the written consent of Purchaser, settle or compromise any claim for Additional Tax Liabilities from any Government Authority or permit a default or consent to entry of any judgment related to the Additional Tax Liabilities unless (i) the Government Authority releases the Group Company from all liability in respect of such claim and (ii) the settlement, compromise, or judgment involves only monetary payment by Seller and does not impose an injunction or other equitable relief on the Group Company or impose any restrictions on the operation, ownership of the business or use of assets of the Group Company or its Affiliates.
          8.8.3 Following determination by Seller and Purchaser, with the advice of Berenfeld and the tax advisors for Purchaser, that any and all claims in connection with Additional Tax Liabilities have been satisfied in full, any remaining amounts in the Escrow Account shall be paid to an account designated by Seller, provided that forty-five percent (45%) of any interest earned in the Escrow Account shall be paid to Purchaser.

The income of the Company shall be apportioned to the period up to and including the Closing Date the period after the Closing Date by closing the books of the Company as of the end of the Closing Date.
          12.2.2 Purchaser shall timely prepare and file, or cause to be timely prepared and filed, all Tax Returns of the Company for Straddle Periods, and timely pay, or cause to be paid, when due, all Taxes relating to such returns. Purchaser shall provide, or cause to be provided, to Seller a substantially final draft of each such Tax Return with respect to which Seller may be responsible for the payment of any Tax at least 30 days prior to the due date, giving effect to extensions thereto, for filing such Tax Return, for review by Seller. Seller shall notify Purchaser of any reasonable objections Seller may have to any items set forth in such draft Tax Return and Purchaser and Seller agree to consult and resolve in good faith any such objection and to mutually consent to the filing of such Tax Return.
     12.3 Certain Tax Matters. Seller acknowledges that Purchaser has indicated its intention to make an election under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code and its state equivalent, if any. Seller agrees that Purchaser, in its discretion, shall make such election; provided, however, that such election shall be made no later than the due date for such election. When such election is made by Purchaser:
          12.3.1 Purchaser shall be authorized to complete Form 8023 and Seller and Purchaser shall mutually agree and complete Form 8883;

          12.3.3 Purchaser shall notify Seller of the allocation of the Consideration among the assets (including intangible assets) of the Company prior to the due date for such election; and
     12.4 Cooperation. After the Closing, Purchaser and Seller shall cooperate and promptly make available or cause to be made available to the other, as reasonably requested, and to any taxing authority, all information, records or documents relating to Tax liabilities and potential Tax liabilities relating to the Company for all periods prior to or including the Closing Date and shall preserve all such information, records and documents until the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations or extensions thereof. Purchaser shall prepare and provide to Seller any Tax information packages reasonably requested by Seller for Seller’s use in preparing Seller’s or the Company’s Tax Returns. Such Tax information packages shall be completed by Purchaser and provided to Seller within 30 days after Seller’s request therefor. Each party shall bear its own expenses in complying with the foregoing provisions. Purchaser shall retain and make available to Seller during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice all records and

28


 

other information which may be relevant to any such Tax liabilities. Purchaser shall cause the Group’s personnel to provide Seller reasonable assistance in researching records and other information of any Group Company which may be relevant to any such tax return, document, audit or examination, proceeding or determination.
     12.5 Refunds or Credits. Purchaser shall promptly pay to Seller, without right of offset, any refunds or credits of Taxes which the Company receives with respect to Tax periods that ended on or before the Closing Date or with respect to Straddle Periods to the extent apportioned to the period that ends at the close of the Closing Date under Section 12.1.3, except for refunds or credits due to the carryback of an item arising in a Tax Period that ends after the Closing Date with respect to a Straddle Period apportioned to the period after the Closing Date. For purposes of this Section 12.5, the term “refund” shall include a reduction in Taxes and the use of an overpayment of Taxes as an audit or other Tax offset and receipt of a refund shall occur upon the filing of a return or an adjustment thereto using such reduction, overpayment or offset, or upon the receipt of cash. Upon the reasonable request of Seller, Purchaser shall prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed at Seller’s expense, all claims for refunds relating to such Taxes; provided, however, that Purchaser shall not be required to file such claims for refund to the extent Purchaser determines in its reasonable discretion that such claims for refund would have an adverse impact on Purchaser or to the extent the claims for refund relate to a carryback of an item. Purchaser shall be entitled to all other refunds and credits of Taxes; provided, however, it will not allow the amendment of any Tax Return relating to any Taxes for a period (or portion thereof) ending on or prior to the Closing Date, except with respect to the carryback of an item to a period ending on or prior to the Closing Date that would not increase Seller’s tax liability herewith, without the prior written consent of Seller.
     12.6 Timing Differences. Purchaser agrees that if as a result of any audit adjustment (or adjustment in any other audit, examination, contest, litigation or other proceeding by or against any taxing authority (a “Tax Proceeding”)) made with respect to any Tax Item that relates to or affects any Tax for which Seller is responsible under Section 12.1, Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, including the Company, receives a tax benefit, then Purchaser will pay to Seller the amount of such tax benefit when such tax benefit is actually utilized by Purchaser or such Affiliate. “Tax Item” means any item of income, gain, loss, deduction, credit, recapture of credit or any other item that increases or decreases Taxes paid or payable. If as a result of the foregoing audit adjustment Purchaser incurs any additional Tax, then Seller will pay to Purchaser the amount of such additional Tax within fifteen calendar days of the due date for making payment of such additional Tax.
     12.7 Contests. Whenever any taxing authority asserts a claim, makes an assessment, or otherwise disputes the amount of Taxes for which Seller is or may be liable under this Agreement, Purchaser shall, if informed of such an assertion, promptly inform Seller, and Seller shall have the right to participate in any resulting proceedings. Purchaser shall keep Seller reasonably informed and consult seriously and in good faith with Seller and its tax advisors with respect to any issue relating to such disputed amount of Taxes, and shall give serious and good faith consideration to any comments or suggested revisions that Seller or its tax advisors may have with respect to any written submission by Purchaser to any taxing authority with respect thereto. Purchaser will not settle any such claim, assessment or dispute to the extent such proceedings or determinations affect the amount of Taxes for which Seller may be liable under

29


 

this Agreement without the consent of Seller, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
     12.8 Further Assistance. The Group and Seller shall each use its commercially reasonable efforts, and shall cooperate with Purchaser, duly execute and deliver any and all such further instruments and documents and take such further action as Purchaser may reasonably deem desirable to obtain the full benefits of the Company Intellectual Property Rights contemplated by this Agreement, including securing all consents and approvals necessary to appropriate for the transfer of such Intellectual Property Rights to Purchaser, obtaining any assignment of inventions, and preparing or cooperate with Purchaser in filing any forms or other documents required to be filed with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, United States Copyright Office, or any filings in any foreign jurisdiction or under any international treaty, required to secure, transfer or protect Purchaser’s rights in the Intellectual Property Rights.
