• Minimum Working Capital The Borrower shall maintain at all times Working Capital (which shall mean Current Assets less Current Liabilities) of at least $500,000.

• Net Working Capital At least three (3) business days prior to the Closing Date, Sellers shall deliver to Buyer a certificate (the “Estimated NWC Certificate”), including a consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of the Closing Date, prepared in accordance with the accounting principles, methods, practices, estimates, judgments and assumptions applied in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements, consistently applied (the “Accounting Principles”), which shall include (a) the Sellers’ good faith estimate (such estimate is referred to as the “Estimated Net Working Capital Amount”) of the “Net Working Capital Amount.” As used herein, “Net Working Capital Amount” means the Net Working Capital of the Company as of 11:59 p.m. EST on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date. “Net Working Capital” means the result of (i) all cash of the Company minus (ii) all current liabilities (excluding the Existing Indebtedness) of the Company, in each case determined in accordance with the Accounting Principles. The Purchase Price at Closing shall be increased by the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount. No later than ninety (90) days following the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Sellers (i) a consolidated balance sheet of the Company dated at the Closing Date, which shall be prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles and (ii) a reasonably detailed statement (the “Final NWC Certificate”) setting forth Buyer’s calculations of the Net Working Capital Amount. If Sellers have any objections to the Final NWC Certificate, Sellers shall deliver to Buyer a statement setting forth its objections thereto (an “Objections Statement”), provided that the only bases for objections shall be (i) non-compliance with the standards set forth above for preparation of the Final NWC Certificate, or as set forth in the definition of Net Working Capital, and (ii) mathematical errors. If an Objections Statement is not delivered to Buyer within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Final NWC Certificate, the Final NWC Certificate shall be final, binding and non-appealable by the parties hereto. Sellers and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any objections set forth in the Objections Statement (and all such discussions related thereto shall, unless otherwise agreed by Buyer and Sellers, be governed by Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence (and any applicable similar state rule)), but if they do not reach a final resolution within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the Objections Statement, Sellers and Buyer may submit such dispute to one of the “Big Four” accounting firms other than Ernst & Young LLP or PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, or, in the event that any such auditor is unable to accept such appointment, to any other nationally recognized independent accounting firm mutually acceptable to Buyer and Sellers (the “Independent Auditor”). Each party shall be afforded an opportunity to present to the Independent Auditor material relating to the disputed issues and to discuss the determination with the Independent Auditor. The Independent Auditor shall act as an auditor and not as an arbitrator and shall resolve matters in dispute and adjust and establish any disputed adjustment of the Net Working Capital Amount to reflect such resolution, provided that the Independent Auditor shall not assign a value to any item or amount in dispute greater than the greatest value for such item or amount assigned by Sellers, on the one hand, or Buyer, on the other hand, or less than the smallest value for such item or amount assigned by Sellers, on the one hand, or Buyer, on the other hand. It is the intent of Buyer and Sellers that the process set forth in this Section 11(F) and the activities of the Independent Auditor in connection herewith are not intended to be and, in fact, are not arbitration and that no formal arbitration rules shall be followed (including rules with respect to procedures and discovery). Sellers and Buyer shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Independent Auditor to resolve all such disagreements as promptly as practicable. The resolution of the dispute by the Independent Auditor shall be final, binding and non-appealable on the parties hereto. The Final NWC Certificate shall be modified if necessary to reflect such determination. The fees and expenses of the Independent Auditor shall be allocated for payment by Buyer, on the one hand, and/or Sellers, on the other hand, based upon the percentage which the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each party bears to the amount actually contested by such party, as determined by the Independent Auditor. If the Net Working Capital Amount as finally determined pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures described above is greater than the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount shown on the Estimated NWC Certificate, then Buyer shall pay to Sellers cash equal to the amount by which the Net Working Capital Amount exceeds the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount. If the Net Working Capital Amount as finally determined pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures described above is less than the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount shown on the Estimated NWC Certificate, then Sellers shall pay to Buyer cash equal to the amount by which the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount exceeds the Net Working Capital Amount.

• Net Working Capital Adjustment (a) Within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to Seller a statement (the “Closing Statement”) calculating the Net Working Capital as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Closing Net Working Capital”) as well as the adjustments to Transaction Consideration which shall be made pursuant to this Section 1.6, together with all underlying documentation supporting such calculations. Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser in its preparation of the Closing Statement.

• Working Capital Adjustment (a) Within 15 days following the Closing Date, the Purchaser will prepare or cause to be prepared a combined balance sheet of the Target Companies as of the Closing Date (the "Closing Date Balance Sheet") showing the amount of Closing Date Working Capital, along with a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculating Closing Date Working Capital, which shall be in accordance with GAAP and consistent with the methodology used in Target Financial Statements (as defined in Section 2.5 below), and shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Shareholders such Closing Date Balance Sheet. In the event that the Shareholders object to the Purchaser's calculation of the Closing Date Working Capital, then, within 30 days after the delivery to the Shareholders of the Closing Date Balance Sheet, the Shareholders shall deliver to the Purchaser a notice describing in reasonable detail the Shareholders' objection to the Purchaser's calculation (an "Objection Notice"), accompanied by a statement setting forth the dollar amount determined by the Shareholders to represent the Closing Date Working Capital or a request for additional information from the Purchaser that the Shareholders may require in order to determine the Closing Date Working Capital. If the Shareholders do not deliver an Objection Notice to the Purchaser within the 30-day period referred to in the preceding sentence, then the Purchaser's calculation of the Closing Date Working Capital shall be binding and conclusive on the Purchaser and the Shareholders. If the Shareholders deliver an Objection Notice to the Purchaser within the 30-day period referred to in this paragraph, and if the Purchaser and the Shareholders are unable to agree upon the calculation of the Closing Date Working Capital within 15 days after an Objection Notice is delivered to the Purchaser, the Shareholders and the Purchaser shall select a nationally recognized accounting firm mutually acceptable to them (the "Neutral Accountant") to resolve any remaining objections, the cost of which shall be paid by the party whose assertions regarding the amount of the Closing Date Working Capital differ by the greater amount from the Closing Date Working Capital determined by the Neutral Accountant. If Purchaser and the Shareholders are unable to select the Neutral Accountant within 10 days after the commencement of such selection process, the Neutral Accountant shall be KPMG (or its successor). The Shareholders and the Purchaser shall jointly instruct the Neutral Accountant to resolve any unresolved objections within 30 days after referral of the matter to them, and the determination by the Neutral Accountant of the Closing Date Working Capital, shall be conclusive and binding on the Purchaser and Shareholders absent fraud or manifest error. During the 30-day period following the Objection Notice, Shareholders and Purchaser shall each have access to the other party's working papers and similar materials prepared in connection with the Closing Date Balance Sheet and the Objection Notice, as the case may be.

• Working Capital Warrants Each of the Working Capital Warrants shall be identical to the Private Placement Warrants.

• Post-Closing Capitalization At, and immediately after, the Closing, the authorized capitalization, and the number of issued and outstanding shares of the capital stock of the Company and the Parent, on a fully-diluted basis, as indicated on a schedule to be delivered by the Parties at or prior to the Closing, shall be acceptable to the Parent in its sole and absolute discretion.

• Transaction Expense Amount Upon Closing, the Company shall pay Ten Thousand and No/100 United States Dollars (US$10,000.00) to Auctus Fund Management, LLC (“Auctus Management”) to cover the Holder’s due diligence, monitoring, and other transaction costs incurred for services rendered in connection herewith (the “Transaction Expense Amount”). The Transaction Expense Amount shall be offset against the proceeds of the Note and shall be paid to Auctus Management upon the execution hereof.
