ARTICLE III
PURCHASE PRICE ADJUSTMENTS

3.1

Net Operating Working Capital Adjustments.

(a)

The Operating Companies and Buyer agree that the Operating Companies shall have Net Operating Working Capital of $12,600,000 on the Closing Date. No more than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, and not less than two (2) days prior to the Closing, Holdings shall in good faith prepare and deliver to Buyer a consolidated closing balance sheet of the Operating Companies as of immediately prior to the Closing (“Estimated Closing Balance Sheet”) as well as an estimate of Net Operating Working Capital (“Estimated Net Operating Working Capital”).

If the Estimated Net Operating Working Capital is greater than $12,600,000, the Closing Date Payment shall be increased dollar-for-dollar by the amount of such difference. The Parties agree to include the difference between Estimated Net Operating Working Capital and $12,600,000, whether a positive or negative number, in calculating the portion of the Closing Date Payment payable by Buyer to the Operating Companies at Closing (the “Estimated Net Operating Working Capital Adjustment”).

(b)

Buyer will have a period of sixty (60) days following the Closing to notify Holdings of any disagreements with the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet, Estimated Net Operating Working Capital and Estimated Net Operating Working Capital Adjustment.

Any such notice of disagreement shall be accompanied by supporting documentation, including a consolidated balance sheet of the Companies on the Closing Date (the “Revised Closing Balance Sheet”), as well as a calculation of the adjustments, if any, to be made to the Estimated Net Operating Working Capital Adjustment (the Schedule of Adjustments”). Failure to notify Holdings within such 60 day period shall be deemed acceptance of the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet, Estimated Net Operating Working Capital and Estimated Net Operating Working Capital Adjustment. In the event Buyer timely notifies Holdings of any disagreement, each of the Operating Companies and Buyer agrees that it will attempt in good faith to resolve such disagreement. Holdings and its representatives shall be permitted to review the working papers related to Buyer’s calculation of the Revised Closing Balance Sheet and Schedule of Adjustments.

If it is determined pursuant to this Section 3.1 that the Estimated Net Operating Working Capital Adjustment paid at the Closing is greater than the additional net operating working capital adjustment as determined pursuant to Section 3.1 (b), (c) and (d) above (the “Additional Net Operating Working Capital Adjustment”), the Operating Companies shall be required to remit such difference to Buyer in cash, with the amount of such difference being paid from the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Amount to the extent available, and thereafter directly from the Operating Companies. If it is determined pursuant to this Section 3.1 that the Estimated Net Operating Working Capital Adjustment paid at the Closing is less than the Estimated Net Operating Working Capital Adjustment as determined pursuant to this Section 3.1, Buyer shall remit such difference in cash to the Operating Companies.

(f)

If within sixty (60) days after delivery to Buyer of the notification by Holdings and/or the ESOP Trust of a disagreement, the parties are unable to resolve such disagreement, either Holdings and/or the ESOP Trust, on the one hand, or Buyer, on the other hand, shall have the right to submit the determination of such matters to the Independent Auditor whose decision shall be delivered to Buyer, Holdings and the ESOP Trust within sixty (60) days of the submission to the Independent Auditor and shall be binding on the parties.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 7.11 shall be construed to require crediting of service that would result in (i) duplication of benefits, (ii) service credit for benefit accruals under any Employee Benefit Plan, or (iii) service credit under a newly established plan for which prior service is not taken into account for employees of Buyer and its subsidiaries generally. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall be construed as to prevent Buyer from terminating the employment of any Transferred Employee at any time after the Closing Date for any reason (or no reason), except as otherwise set forth in a written employment agreement executed by Buyer and such Employee. The Companies shall deliver to Buyer as of the Closing Date all personnel files relating to any Employee who becomes an employee of Buyer.

Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7.11 to the contrary, nothing contained herein, whether express or implied, shall be treated as an amendment or other modification of any Employee Benefit Plan maintained by Buyer or any of its Affiliates, or shall limit the right of Buyer to amend, terminate or otherwise modify any Employee Benefit Plan maintained by Buyer or any of its Affiliates following the Closing Date.

(c)

The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that all provisions contained in this Section 7.11 are included for the sole benefit of the parties hereto, and that nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, shall create any third party beneficiary or other rights (i) in any other Person, including, without limitation, any Employee who becomes an employee of Buyer, any participant in any Employee Benefit Plan maintained by Buyer or any of its Affiliates, or any dependent or beneficiary thereof, or (ii) to continued employment with Buyer or any of its Affiliates.

Holdings shall continue to sponsor the ESOP until such time as all amounts owed to the ESOP Trust under this Agreement have been distributed to participants. Holdings will “freeze” the ESOP as of the Closing Date. Holdings will terminate the ESOP as of a date determined by its board of directors. At the appropriate time as determined by such board, Holdings will file an application with the IRS for a determination letter to the effect that the termination of the ESOP will not affect its tax qualified status. Until all benefits under the ESOP are distributed, Holdings will take all actions necessary to maintain the ESOP’s qualified status under Code Section 401(a) and the ESOP Trust’s tax exempt status under Section 501(a). Until all shares of Holdings’ stock held by the ESOP are redeemed, Holdings will take all action necessary to maintain the status of the ESOP as an “employee stock ownership plan” as described in Code Section 4975(e)(7).

Following receipt of such letter, Holdings shall cause all 401(k) Component assets to be distributed to participants in accordance with the distribution provisions thereof. Holdings shall timely file or cause to be filed any annual return (IRS Form 5500) for the 401(k) Component for each plan year for which such return is required by law to be filed.

The Disclosure Statement (as the same may be amended or supplemented from time to time) will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they will be made, not misleading. The ESOP Trustee will prepare a letter of transmittal and a form of voting instruction, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Companies and Buyer, to accompany the mailing of the Disclosure Statement to the ESOP participants. The

letter of transmittal will explain the role of the ESOP Trustee in connection with the solicitation of instructions, the process by which confidential voting instructions are to be provided to the ESOP Trustee, the voting instruction process, applicable provisions of the ESOP Trust documents and the consequences of failing to provide instructions. The letter of transmittal will be silent as to any recommendation that ESOP participants approve or disapprove the sale of the Purchased Assets and Shares to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement.

Except to the extent required by applicable law, all individual voting instructions shall remain strictly confidential and shall not be disclosed to any Person.

ARTICLE IX
INDEMNIFICATION

9.1

Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties contained in ARTICLE IV and ARTICLE V shall survive the Closing and shall remain in full force and effect until and including the 549^th consecutive day immediately following the Closing Date (the “Final Claims Date”); provided, however, that (i) the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.8 (Taxes) shall remain in full force and effect until and including the 1096^th consecutive day immediately following the date on which the Companies file the last of the tax returns as certified by an officer or agent of Holdings (the “Tax Survival Date) listed on Schedule 7.20 of the Disclosure Schedule, and (ii) the representations and warranties contained in Sections 4.3(b) (Securities and Ownership; Subsidiaries) and the last sentence of 4.9(a) (Assets) shall remain in full force and effect indefinitely. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any representation or warranty that would otherwise terminate in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence will continue to survive with respect to any Claim if Buyer notifies Holdings of a claim specifying the factual basis of the Claim in reasonable detail to the extent then known by Buyer prior to the applicable expiration date, until the Claim has been satisfied or otherwise resolved.

9.2

Indemnification by the Operating Companies. From and after the Closing, the Operating Companies, jointly and severally, shall indemnify and hold Buyer and its directors, officers, employees, shareholders, members, partners, agents, Affiliates, successors and assigns (collectively “Buyer Claimants” and individually “Buyer Claimant”) harmless from and defend each of them from and against any and all demands, claims, actions, liabilities, losses, costs, damages or expenses whatsoever including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses (and costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees in respect of any suit to enforce this

provision) (collectively, “Claims”) asserted against, imposed upon or incurred by Buyer Claimants resulting from or arising out of (i) any alleged inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty of the ESOP Trust or Company contained in this Agreement or Operative Document to which it is a party, or any claim by a third party which, if true, would constitute such inaccuracy or breach; (ii) any breach of any covenant or obligation of any Company or the ESOP Trust contained in this Agreement or any Operative Document; and (iii) any liability of or relating to the ESOP Trust or the Companies other than Assumed Liabilities. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, but subject to the last sentence of this Section 9.2: (A) No Company shall be required to indemnify a Buyer Claimant under clause (i) of this Section 9.2 unless the aggregate cumulative sum of all Claims for which indemnity would otherwise be due under clause (i) of this Section 9.2 exceeds $1,500,000 (the Deductible”), and then only for the amount by which the aggregate cumulative sum of all Claims exceeds $1,500,000, (B) the Companies’ aggregate maximum liability for any and all Claims by Buyer in connection with the Contemplated Transactions, including indemnification under this Section 9.2, shall not exceed the Escrow Amount available at any time under the Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Amount shall be released as and to the extent provided in the Escrow Agreement. The limitations set forth in foregoing clauses (A) and (B) shall not apply to Claims arising from any inaccuracy or breach of the representations or warranties contained in Section 4.3(b) and the last sentence of Section 4.9(a). The Buyer Claimants shall not be entitled to count against the Deductible or seek indemnification for Claims to the extent that the items giving rise to such Claims were used in calculating the Earn-Out Payments pursuant to Sections 3.2 and 3.3 above and, to the extent that any items or amounts have been applied against the Deductible or subject to a Claim for indemnification by the Buyer Claimants (whether or not the Buyer Claimants have prevailed on such application against the Deductible or Claim for indemnification), such amounts may not be used in calculating the Earn-Out Payments, it being the intent of the parties that Buyer shall have the right to elect one remedy only (indemnity or an Earn-Out Payment adjustment) with respect to any such item or amount.

9.3

Indemnification by Buyer. Buyer shall indemnify and hold the ESOP Trust and each Company and its respective directors, officers, employees, shareholders, members, partners, agents, Affiliates, successors and assigns (collectively “Seller Claimants” and individually “Seller Claimant”) harmless from and defend each of them from and against any and all Claims asserted against, imposed upon or incurred by the Seller Claimants resulting from or arising out of (i) any alleged inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty of Buyer contained in this Agreement or any Operative Document, or any claim by a third party which, if true, would constitute such inaccuracy or breach; (ii) any breach of any covenant or obligation of Buyer contained in this Agreement or any Operative Document; (iii) any Assumed Liability; (iv) the operation of the Business or ownership of the Purchased Assets on or after the Closing Date; and/or (v) a 953(d) tax election by Buyer after the Closing Date regarding Jamestown that negatively impacts Holdings tax liabilities incurred prior to the Closing Date. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary; (A) Buyer shall not be required to indemnify a Seller Claimant under clause (i) of the first sentence of this Section 9.3 unless the aggregate cumulative sum of all Claims for which indemnity would otherwise be due under clause (i) of the first sentence of this Section 9.3 exceeds $1,500,000, and then only for the amount by which the aggregate cumulative sum of all Claims exceeds $1,500,000, and (B) in addition, Buyer’s aggregate maximum liability for indemnification under clause (i) of the first

sentence of this Section 9.3 shall not exceed the Escrow Amount available at any time under the Escrow Agreement.

9.4

Terms and Conditions of Indemnification. The respective obligations and liabilities of the Operating Companies and Buyer to indemnify pursuant to this ARTICLE IX shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

(a)

The party seeking indemnification (the “Claimant”) must give the other party or parties, as the case may be (the “Indemnitor”), prompt written notice of any such Claim. The Claimant’s failure to give prompt notice, however, shall not serve to eliminate or limit the Claimant’s right to indemnification hereunder except to the extent such failure materially prejudices the rights of the Indemnitor.

(b)

The respective obligations and liabilities of the Companies and Buyer to indemnify pursuant to this ARTICLE IX in respect of any Claim by a third party shall be subject to the following additional terms and conditions:

(i)

The Indemnitor shall have the right to undertake, by counsel or other representatives of its own choosing reasonably satisfactory to Claimant, the defense, compromise, and settlement of such Claim.

(ii)

In the event that the Indemnitor shall elect not to undertake such defense, or within ten (10) days after notice of any such Claim from the Claimant shall fail to defend, the Claimant shall have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such Claim, by counsel or other representatives of its own choosing, on behalf of and for the account and risk of the Indemnitor.

(iii)

Notwithstanding anything in this Section 9.4 to the contrary, (A) if there is a reasonable probability that a Claim may materially and adversely affect the Claimant other than as a result of money damages or other money payments, the Claimant shall have the right, to participate in the defense, compromise or settlement of the Claim, (B) the Indemnitor shall not, without the Claimant’s written consent, settle or compromise any Claim or consent to entry of any judgment which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claiming party or the plaintiff to the Claimant of a release from all liability in respect of such Claim, and (C) in the event that the Indemnitor undertakes defense of any Claim, the Claimant by counsel or other representative of its own choosing and at its sole cost and expense, shall have the right to consult with the Indemnitor and its counsel or other representatives concerning such Claim and the Indemnitor and the Claimant and their respective counsel or other representatives shall cooperate with respect to such Claim, subject to the execution and delivery of a mutually satisfactory joint defense agreement.

(c)

If a Claimant incurs a tax liability as a result of the receipt of an indemnification payment under this ARTICLE IX, the Indemnitor shall indemnify the Claimant for that tax liability and for any tax liability incurred by the Claimant with respect to a payment pursuant to this sentence.

(d)

Any payment made in respect of indemnification under this ARTICLE IX shall be treated for all purposes, and shall constitute, an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

(e)

BUYER AND COMPANIES AGREE THAT UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR ITS AFFILIATES, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES OR AGENTS BE RESPONSIBLE (AS A RESULT OF INDEMNITY CLAIM OR OTHERWISE) FOR ANY PUNITIVE CLAIMS OR DAMAGES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OPERATIVE DOCUMENT, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGES EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THE INDEMNIFIED PARTY IS LIABLE FOR SUCH DAMAGES TO ANY THIRD PARTY (EXCLUDING ANY AFFILIATE OF A PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT).

(f)

Third Party Contribution. The amount of any and all Claims for which indemnification is provided pursuant to this Agreement shall be reduced by any amounts actually received by the Claimant under insurance policies in effect relating to such Claims. In the event that any claim for indemnification asserted under this Agreement is, or may be, the subject of insurance coverage of Buyer or any Company or other right to indemnification or contribution from any third party (a “Third Party Contributor”), each of the Claimant and Indemnitor shall promptly notify the applicable insurance carrier of such claim and shall also promptly notify any potential Third Party Contributor. Claimant and Indemnitor shall pursue, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnitor, such claims diligently and shall reasonably cooperate, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnitor, with each such insurance carrier and Third Party Contributor.

(g)

Tax Benefits/Costs. The amount of any and all Claims for which indemnification is provided pursuant to this Agreement shall be (i) increased to take account of any net Tax cost incurred by the Claimant arising from the receipt of indemnity payments hereunder, and (ii) reduced to take account of any net Tax benefit actually realized by the Claimant arising from the incurrence or payment of any such Claims; provided, however, that any net Tax cost incurred and any net Tax benefit realized shall be attributable to those Claims taken into account on a Tax return for a year not later than the year in which the indemnity payment is made. In computing the amount of any such Tax cost or Tax benefit, the Claimant shall be deemed to recognize all other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit before recognizing any item arising from the receipt of any indemnity payment hereunder or the incurrence or payment of any and all Claims.

(h)

Claim Against Escrow. Except as otherwise specifically provided in the last sentence of Section 9.2(a) as to Claims against the Operating Companies arising from any inaccuracy or breach of the representations or warranties contained in Section 4.3(b) and the last sentence of Section 4.9(a), and except for Claims under Sections 2.9, 3.1(e), 3.4 and 7.24, any Claims to which Buyer may be entitled to indemnification under or in connection with this Agreement shall be satisfied solely and exclusively out of the Escrow Amount available under the Escrow Agreement and Buyer hereby waives any right to recoup such Claims from any Company or the ESOP Trust.

(i)

Exclusive Remedy. Upon and after the Closing, the provisions of ARTICLE IX of this Agreement represent the sole and exclusive remedy available to any party

to this Agreement for any breach, misstatement or omission by any other party relating to any representation or warranty contained herein or a certificate delivered hereunder or for any breach by any other party of any covenant or agreement required to be performed contained herein or under a certificate delivered hereunder and with respect to any claim for indemnification or Claims against any other party hereto and, except with respect to Claims as a result of fraud (which are expressly not waived), each party hereby unconditionally waives any other rights that it may have at law or in equity for any misstatement or omission by any other party from any representation or warranty contained herein or a certificate delivered hereunder or for any breach by any other party of any covenant or agreement required to be performed prior to the Closing contained herein or under a certificate delivered hereunder. For purposes of this Agreement, “fraud” shall be defined in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

9.5

Qualifications. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, for purposes of the indemnification provisions in this ARTICLE IX, the determination of (i) whether any representation warranty or covenant has been breached and (ii) the amount of any damages shall be made without giving effect to any “Material Adverse Effect” qualification or any materiality or similar qualification contained in the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements herein.

Buyer and the Operating Companies shall cooperate, and Buyer shall cause the Companies to cooperate with the Operating Companies with respect to any Tax audit or administrative or court proceeding relating to Taxes referred to in the first sentence of this Section 10.2(b); provided that the party requesting said assistance shall pay any reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the party providing such assistance.

any time after October 17, 2008 by Holdings, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, upon notification to the non-terminating party by the terminating party if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before such date and such failure to consummate is not caused by a breach of this Agreement by the terminating party.

Subject to applicable law, process in any such proceeding may be served on any party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such court. Nothing herein shall affect the right of any party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or at equity or to enforce in any lawful manner a judgment obtained in one jurisdiction in any other jurisdiction.
