2.5 Consideration.

(a) The consideration to be paid by Buyer to VMC for the Acquired Assets is the sum of the following (the “Purchase Price”): (i) Three Million Nine Hundred Fifty Four Thousand Four Hundred Dollars ($3,954,400.00) in cash (the “Cash Consideration”); and (ii), subject to Section 2.5(b), 195,798 shares of InPhonic Common Stock having a value of Four Million One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($4,100,000.00) (“First Tranche of Stock Consideration”) (which number of shares was obtained by dividing (a) $4,100,000.00 by (b) $20.94); and (iii) the number of shares of InPhonic Common Stock equal to Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00)(which number of shares will be calculated by dividing (a) $3,000,000.00 by (b) the closing market price for InPhonic’s Common Stock on the NASDAQ Stock Market (excluding after-hours trading) on the Distribution Date (“Second Tranche of Stock Consideration”); and (iv) the Earn Out Payment as provided in Section 2.6; and (v) Thirty Eight Thousand Two Hundred Seventeen Dollars and 45/100 ($38,217.45) for the preparation and completion of VMC’s 2004 annual audit of VMC’s financial statements (the “Audit Fees”) performed by The Xxxxxxx Group (the “Seller Auditor”); and (vi) Three Hundred Eleven Thousand Five Hundred Twenty Three Dollars and 46/100 ($311,523.46) for the replacement and upgrade of Seller’s telecommunications systems. The First Tranche of Stock Consideration and the Second Tranche of Stock Consideration shall

- 16 –

be collectively referred to herein as the “Stock Consideration.” The Purchase Price is being paid for the transfer, sale, conveyance, assignment, transfer and delivery to Buyer of the Acquired Assets, as provided herein, and in reliance on the representations and warranties, covenants and other agreements made by Seller in this Agreement.

(b) On the Closing Date, Buyer will deliver to VMC the Cash Consideration and the portion of the Purchase Price reflected in Sections 2.5(a)(v) and 2.5(a)(vi) above by wire transfer of immediately available funds to VMC. Buyer will deliver the First Tranche of Stock Consideration in certificate form in the name of the VMC within five (5) business days of the Closing Date as follows: (i) a stock certificate in the name of VMC for 171,920 shares of InPhonic Common Stock and (ii) a stock certificate in the name of VMC for 23,878 shares of InPhonic Common Stock having a value of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) as calculated under Section 2.5(a)(ii) above (the “Escrowed Stock”), shall be delivered by Buyer to the Escrow Agent to be held in accordance with the terms the Escrow Agreement dated as of the Closing Date by and among VMC, Buyer and the Escrow Agent, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F (the “Escrow Agreement”). The stock certificates evidencing the Escrowed Stock will be delivered by Buyer to the Escrow Agent within five (5) days after the Closing Date. The stock certificates in the name of Seller for the Second Tranche of Stock Consideration shall be delivered to VMC by Buyer within five (5) days of the Distribution Date.

Each Party acknowledges and agrees that all fees and expenses of the Escrow Agent shall be divided equally between Buyer and VMC and paid by each Party for the first year at Closing. All of the shares of the Escrowed Stock shall continue to be held in escrow and applied toward payment of any Damages of any Buyer Indemnified Person in accordance with Section 7.1 (the “Indemnity Holdback Amount”). Subject to the terms of the Escrow Agreement, Buyer and VMC expressly agree that the Escrow Agent shall have full authority to disburse up to the full amount of the Indemnity Holdback Amount directly to a Buyer Indemnified Person as payment for Damages in accordance with Section 7.1. If no Buyer Indemnified Person has made a claim for Damages during the two (2) year period after the Closing Date, or if the aggregate amount of all claims for Damages is less than the Indemnity Holdback Amount, then the Escrow Agent will be directed to disburse to Seller the Indemnity Holdback Amount, or any remaining portion thereof after any payment for Damages.

(c) The Escrow Agreement will provide, among other things, that upon the one (1) year anniversary of the Closing Date, provided that the Indemnity Holdback Amount has an aggregate market value in excess of *** Dollars ($***) (the “Minimum Escrow Value”) (calculated by multiplying the number of then held shares of InPhonic Common Stock held by the closing market price as reported on the NASDAQ Stock Market on April 26, 2006), then after taking into account any amounts claimed by or paid to a Buyer Indemnified Person or any estimated amount of Damages as reasonably determined by the Parties, the number of shares of Escrowed Stock in excess of the Minimum Escrow Value shall be returned by the Escrow Agent to Seller (as provided below), with any fractional share(s) remaining as Escrowed Stock. If one or more stock certificates representing the Escrow Shares will need to be reissued for the Escrow Agent to deliver shares of InPhonic Common Stock to VMC as provided in the preceding

- 17 –

sentence, then each of VMC and Buyer will cooperate with the Escrow Agent and InPhonic’s transfer agent to have new stock certificates issued for such purpose and comply with each of their obligations under the Escrow Agreement. However, if the aggregate market value of the Indemnity Holdback Amount is below the Minimum Escrow Value on April 26, 2006, then Seller shall deposit with the Escrow Agent by May 5, 2006 such amount of cash or shares of InPhonic Common Stock (as valued on April 26, 2006) to cause the value of the Indemnity Holdback Amount to be at least the Minimum Escrow Value. If the amount of Damages estimated, paid to or claimed by a Buyer Indemnified Person is greater than the Minimum Escrow Value, then no distribution shall be made to VMC upon the one (1) year anniversary, even if the amount of such Damages is less than the total value of the Escrowed Stock. The Escrow Agreement will also provide, that, if no Buyer Indemnified Person has made a claim for Damages upon the two (2) year anniversary of the Closing Date, then the balance of the Indemnity Holdback Amount (less any estimated amount of Damages or actual amount of Damages claimed by or paid to any Buyer Indemnified Person), if any, held by the Escrow Agent at that time will be released and distributed to VMC. The Buyer and Seller shall equally share the costs of the Escrow Agent to hold the Escrow Stock and both agree to timely pay, beginning with the first payment at the Closing and for each year thereafter, the fees charged by the Escrow Agent as provided under the Escrow Agreement.

(d) The Earn Out Payment portion of the Purchase Price reflected in Section 2.5(a)(iv) will be delivered by Buyer to VMC when due and payable in accordance with the terms of Section 2.6. Shares of InPhonic Common Stock to be received by Seller as Stock Consideration, including, without limitation the Escrowed Shares, shall be adjusted as may be necessary for any stock split, stock dividend or reclassification of InPhonic Common Stock

2.6 Earn Out Payment.

(a) In accordance with this Section 2.6, Seller will be entitled to receive, as an earn out payment, in an amount not to exceed Five Million Fifty Thousand Dollars ($5,050,000.00) in cash (the “Earn Out Cash”) and an amount not to exceed 334,288 shares of InPhonic Common Stock having a value of Seven Million Dollars ($7,000,000.00) (the “Earn Out Stock”) (which number of shares was obtained by dividing (a) $7,000,000.00 by (b) $20.94 (the “Earn Out Stock Price”)) (together, the Earn Out Cash and Earn Out Stock, shall be collectively referred to as the “Earn Out Payment”). In accordance with Section 2.6(b), Seller’s receipt of any of the Earn Out Payment shall be based upon Seller’s achieving certain EBITDA targets for the First Measuring Period and the Second Measuring Period, except where there are indemnity claims by Buyer for the earned portion of the Earn Out Payment, if any or as otherwise provided under Section 5.17. Shares of InPhonic Common Stock that may be received by Seller as Earn Out Stock shall be adjusted as may be necessary for any stock split, stock dividend or reclassification of InPhonic Common Stock.

(b) Seller shall be entitled to receive up to the full amount of the Earn Out Payments in such amounts set forth in (i) and (ii) below, upon Buyer achieving the specified

- 18 –

performance goals for EBITDA during the First Measuring Period and the Second Measuring Period as follows:

(i)

A. If Buyer achieves EBITDA of at least *** Dollars ($***) (the “First EBITDA Target”) for the First Measuring Period, then Seller shall receive *** Dollars ($***) of the Earn Out Cash and *** shares in Earn Out Stock (such number of shares to have a value of *** Dollars ($***) at the Earn Out Stock Price); and

B. If Buyer achieves EBITDA of *** Dollars ($***) (the “First Additional Earn Out Threshold”) during the First Measuring Period, then Seller shall receive an additional *** shares of Earn Out Stock (such number of shares to have a value of *** Dollars ($***) at the Earn Out Stock Price); and

(ii)

A. If Buyer achieves EBITDA of at least *** Dollars ($***) (the “Second EBITDA Target”) for the Second Measuring Period, then Seller shall receive *** Dollars ($***) of the Earn Out Cash and *** shares in Earn Out Stock (such number of shares to have a value of *** Dollars ($***) at the Earn Out Stock Price); and

B. If Buyer achieves EBITDA of *** Dollars ($***) (the “Second Additional Earn Out Threshold”) during the Second Measuring Period, then Seller shall receive an additional *** shares of Earn Out Stock (such number of shares to have a value of *** Dollars ($***) at the Earn Out Stock Price).

For purposes of Section 2.6(b)(i)(A) and subject to Section 5.17, if Buyer does not achieve at least *** percent (***%) of the First EBITDA Target for the First Measuring Period, then Seller shall not be entitled to receive any Earn Out Payment for the First Measuring Period. If Buyer achieves greater than *** percent (***%) of the First EBITDA Target, but less than *** percent (***%) of the First EBITDA Target for the First Measuring Period, then, nonetheless, Seller shall be entitled to a percentage of Earn Out Cash and Earn Out Stock as set forth in Section 2.6(b)(i)(A) equal to the percentage of EBITDA achieved during the First Measuring Period so that, by way of example, if Buyer achieved *** percent (***%) of the First EBITDA Target, then Seller would be entitled to *** percent (***%) of the Earn Out Payment for the First Measuring Period, which would be $*** and *** shares of Earn Out Stock. To be entitled to the Earn Out Cash and Earn Out Stock for the First Additional Earn Out Threshold, Buyer must achieve the full amount of the First Additional Earn Out Threshold during the First Measuring Period. If Buyer does not achieve at least *** percent (***%) of the Second EBITDA Target for the Second Measuring Period, then Seller shall not be entitled to receive any Earn Out Payment for the Second Measuring Period. If Buyer achieves greater than *** percent (***%) of the Second EBITDA Target, but less than *** percent (***%) of the Second EBITDA Target for the Second Measuring Period, then, nonetheless, Seller shall be entitled to a percentage of Earn Out

- 19 –

Cash and Earn Out Stock as set forth in Section 2.6(b)(ii)(A) equal to the percentage of EBITDA achieved during the Second Measuring Period so that, by way of example, if Buyer achieved *** percent (***%) of the Second EBITDA Target, then Seller would be entitled to ***-percent (***%) of the Earn Out Payment for the Second Measuring Period, which would be $*** and *** shares of Earn Out Stock. To be entitled to the Earn Out Cash and Earn Out Stock for the Second Additional Earn Out Threshold, Buyer must achieve the full amount of the Second Additional Earn Out Threshold during the Second Measuring Period. This paragraph expressly does not apply to Section 2.6(b)(i)(B) or Section 2.6(b)(ii)(B).

In addition, for purposes of the First Measuring Period only, ***, only after Buyer has achieved the First EBITDA Target, ***. Seller acknowledges and agrees that Seller will not be eligible for the Earn Out Payments for the First Additional Earn Out Threshold under Section 2.6(b)(i)(B) if the ***.

(c) Buyer shall cause to be prepared and delivered to Seller a statement setting forth the EBITDA achieved by Buyer for each calendar month during the applicable measuring periods (the “Monthly EBITDA Statement”). If Seller reasonably determines based upon the Monthly EBITDA Statements that Buyer has achieved the First EBITDA Target *** and/or the Second EBITDA Target ***, then in each case Seller may provide written notice to Buyer claiming that the First EBITDA Target and/or the Second EBITDA Target has been achieved ***. Buyer shall then have twenty (20) days from receipt of Seller’s written notice to prepare and deliver an interim EBITDA Statement (“Interim EBITDA Statement”) for those calendar months that Seller claims that it has achieved the First EBITDA Target and/or the Second EBITDA Target. If, within ten (10) days following receipt of the Interim EBITDA Statement, Buyer has not received written notice of Seller’s objection to the Interim EBITDA Statement (which objection notice must contain a reasonable statement of the basis of Seller’s objection) (the “Notice of Objection to Interim Statement”), then the Interim EBITDA Statement shall be deemed accepted by Seller and will be used to determine whether Seller is entitled to any Earn Out Cash and Earn Out Stock for the First EBITDA Target and/or Second EBITDA Target to which the Interim EBITDA Statement relates. Except as provided in Sections 2.6(d), 2.6(e) or 5.17, Buyer will deliver to Seller the amount of Earn Out Cash and Earn Out Stock due and payable for the First EBITDA Target and/or the Second EBITDA Target, if earned by Seller during the applicable measuring period as provided in this Section 2.6, within ten (10) days after the expiration of the period of time in which Seller may object to the Interim EBITDA Statements. However, if Seller provides the Notice of Objection to Interim Statement to Buyer, Seller and Buyer will have ten (10) days to resolve the dispute in good faith among them. If Seller and Buyer have not resolved their dispute within such ten (10) day period, then Seller and Buyer shall resolve their dispute in accordance with the Section 2.6(e) below.

Earn Out Payments for the First EBITDA Target and the Second EBITDA Target paid by Buyer to Seller prior to expiration of the applicable measuring period, as provided in this paragraph, shall be subject to review and downward adjustment as may be necessary to conform to the EBITDA calculations set forth in the Measuring Period EBITDA Statement. Any downward adjustment will first be applied against any Earn Out Payment that Seller is or may

- 20 –

become entitled to receive under Section 2.6, and if Seller is not entitled to any additional Earn Out Payment, then Seller will deliver to Buyer a cash payment equal to the amount of the downward adjustment within fifteen (15) days of receiving the Measuring Period EBITDA Statement that reflects any such downward adjustment in EBITDA earned during the applicable measuring period. Any dispute arising out of any adjustment to Earn Out Payments shall be resolved in accordance with the dispute procedures for Measuring Period EBITDA Statements in the paragraph below.

If the First EBITDA Target and/or the Second EBITDA Target are not achieved prior to the expiration of the applicable measuring period, then on or before the forty-fifth (45^th) day following the end of each of the First Measuring Period and the Second Measuring Period, respectively and after review by KPMG or such other accounting firm of Buyer applying procedures for annual or quarterly review of Buyer financial statements as applicable, Buyer shall cause to be prepared and delivered to Seller a statement setting forth the EBITDA achieved by Buyer during the applicable measuring period (the “Measuring Period EBITDA Statement”). The Measuring Period EBITDA Statement will also set forth the amount, if any, of the Earn Out Cash and Earn Out Stock due to Seller as provided in Section 2.6(b). If, within fifteen (15) days following receipt of the Measuring Period EBITDA Statement, Buyer has not received written notice of Seller’s objection to the Measuring Period EBITDA Statement (which objection notice must contain a reasonable statement of the basis of Seller’s objection) (the “Notice of Objection to Final Statement”), then the Measuring Period EBITDA Statement shall be deemed accepted by Seller and will be used to determine whether Seller is entitled to any Earn Out Cash and Earn Out Stock for the measuring period to which the Measuring Period EBITDA Statement relates. Except as provided in Section 2.6(d), 2.6(e) or Section 5.17, Buyer will deliver to Seller the amount of Earn Out Cash and Earn Out Stock due and payable for the First Measuring Period and the Second Measuring Period, if earned by Seller during the applicable measuring period as provided in this Section 2.6, within ten (10) days after the expiration of the period of time in which Seller may object to the Measuring Period EBITDA Statement. However, if Seller provides the Notice of Objection to Final Statement to Buyer, Seller and Buyer will have ten (10) days to resolve the dispute in good faith among them. If Seller and Buyer have not resolved their dispute within such ten (10) day period, then Seller and Buyer shall resolve their dispute in accordance with the Section 2.6(e) below.

(d) Seller agrees that if it becomes entitled to receive any Earn Out Payment as provided in Section 2.6(b) or Section 5.17, but a Buyer Indemnified Person has notified Seller of any claim or demand which the Buyer Indemnified Person reasonably has determined has given or reasonably could give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement, which amount the Buyer Indemnified Person shall deliver in writing to Seller (the “Estimated Earn Out Indemnity Amount”), then that portion (up to the entire amount) of the Earn Out Payment needed to satisfy the Estimated Earn Out Indemnity Amount, shall be applied toward, or reserved against, payment of any Damages of any Buyer Indemnified Person in accordance with Section 7.1 (the “Earn Out Indemnity Amount”). Buyer shall pay or deliver, in equal proportions of Earn Out Stock and Earn Out Cash, the excess (if any) of the Earn Out Payment as provided in Section 2.6(b) less the Estimated Earn Out Indemnity Amount. Notwithstanding the provisions

- 21 –

of Section 2.6(a), (b) and (c) and Section 5.17, Seller will have no right to receive any amounts paid to any Buyer Indemnified Person from the Earn Out Indemnity Amount as provided in the preceding sentence. If no Buyer Indemnified Person has made a claim for Damages during the two-year period after the Closing Date and no dispute has arisen, (as provided in Section 2.6(e)), then the remaining Earn Out Indemnity Amount, if any, shall be delivered to Seller but only if the Earn Out Payment was earned by Seller in accordance with this Section 2.6.

(e) “Dispute Procedures” if, after Notice of Objection to Final Statement is received relating to the EBITDA Statement or any dispute arises under Section 2.5 or this Section 2.6, and Seller and Buyer cannot resolve their disputes, Buyer and Seller shall, during the fifteen (15) days following such delivery, use their best efforts to reach agreement on the disputed items or amounts in order to determine, as may be required, the amount of Earnout Out Payment payable. If during such period, Buyer and Seller are unable to reach such agreement, they shall promptly thereafter cause E&Y (the “Accounting Referee”) to audit the EBITDA Statement in dispute, provided E&Y consents to perform as the Accounting Referee and its costs to provide such services are not materially higher than KPMG, as jointly determined by the Parties. If E&Y fails to consent or the Parties agree the costs are materially higher than KPMG’s costs, Seller’s Auditor shall become the Accounting Referee for purposes of this Agreement, provided however, if Seller’s Auditor fails to agree to serve as the Accounting Referee, then a mutually agreed accounting firm to serve as Accounting Referee will be selected by the Parties. The Accounting Referee shall review this Agreement and the disputed items or amounts for the purpose of calculating Earn Out Payment payable for such Measuring Period (it being understood that in making such calculation, the Accounting Referee shall be functioning as an expert and not as an arbitrator). In making such calculation, the Accounting Referee shall consider only those items or amounts in the applicable EBITDA Statement and Seller’s calculation of the Earn Out Payment payable as to which Seller has disagreed. The Accounting Referee shall deliver to Buyer and Seller, as promptly as practicable (but in any case no later than thirty (30) days from the date of engagement of the Accounting Referee), a report setting forth such calculation. Such report shall be final and binding upon Buyer and Seller. Buyer and Seller shall, and shall cause their respective representatives to, cooperate and assist in such review conducted by the Accounting Referee, including, without limitation, the making available to the extent necessary of books, records, work papers and personnel. The cost of such review and report shall be borne *** by ***.

2.7 Change and Use of Name.

Concurrently with the Closing, Seller shall take all actions required to enable Buyer to have a perpetual, exclusive right, title, interest, ownership and use of the trademarks, service marks and trade names as set forth in Section 2.1(f) and any derivative or combination thereof that it may elect, and Seller shall make no further use of any of such names.

2.8 Further Action.

At any time and from time to time after the Closing, at Buyer’s request and without further consideration, Seller shall promptly execute and deliver such instruments of sale, transfer,

- 22 –

conveyance, assignment and confirmation, and take such action, and provide such advice, as Buyer may request to more effectively transfer, convey and assign to Buyer, and to confirm and perfect Buyer’s title to, all of the Acquired Assets, to put Buyer in actual possession and operating control thereof and all rights with respect thereto and to carry out the purpose and intent of this Agreement. Seller agrees to cause the Seller Auditor to assist and cooperate with Buyer, InPhonic and their independent auditor relating to Seller Financial Statements or the Business and to provide InPhonic or Buyer with any consents that may be necessary for InPhonic or Buyer to comply with the Securities Act or the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

2.9 Purchase Price Allocation.

Buyer shall prepare an allocation of the Purchase Price (and all other capitalized costs) among the Acquired Assets in accordance with Code §1060 and the Treasury regulations thereunder (and any similar provision of state, local or foreign law, as appropriate. *** Buyer and Seller (and their Affiliates) shall report, act and file Tax Returns (including, but not limited to Internal Revenue Service Form 8594) in all respects and for all purposes consistent with such allocation prepared by Buyer. Seller shall timely and properly prepare execute, file and deliver all such documents, forms and other information as Buyer may request to prepare such allocation. Neither Buyer nor Seller shall take any position (whether in audits, Tax Returns or otherwise), which is inconsistent with such allocation unless required to do so by applicable law.

3.7 Tax Matters.

(a) Seller has timely (taking into account extensions of time to file) filed all Tax Returns that it was required to file with the appropriate Governmental Entities in all jurisdictions in which such returns are required to be filed, except where the failure to timely file (taking into account extension of time to file) all Tax Returns would not have a Material Adverse Effect on Seller. All such Tax Returns accurately and correctly reflect the Taxes of Seller for the periods covered thereby and are complete in all material respects. All Taxes owed by Seller, or for which Seller may be liable (whether or not shown on any Tax Return), have been or will be timely paid. Seller is not currently the beneficiary of any extension of time within which to file any Tax Return. No claim has ever been made by an authority in a jurisdiction where Seller does not file Tax Returns that it is or may be subject to taxation by that jurisdiction. Seller is eligible and has properly made all necessary filings to be treated as a “Subchapter S” corporation, and such status is currently effective.

5.9 Employee Benefits.

(a) Schedule 5.9 lists each Employee Benefit Plan that Seller or any of its Subsidiaries maintains, to which Seller or any of its Subsidiaries contributes or has any obligation to contribute, or with respect to which Seller or any of its Subsidiaries has any liability or potential liability.

(i) Each such Employee Benefit Plan (and each related trust, insurance contract, or fund) has been maintained, funded and administered in accordance with the terms of such Employee Benefit Plan and the terms of any applicable collective bargaining agreement and complies in form and in operation in all respects with the applicable requirements of ERISA, the Code, and other applicable laws, except where the failure to maintain, fund, or administer such Employee Benefit Plan could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(ii) All required reports and descriptions (including Form 5500 annual reports, summary annual reports, and summary plan descriptions) have been timely filed and/or distributed in accordance with the applicable requirements of ERISA and the Code with respect to each such Employee Benefit Plan, except where the failure to timely file and/or distribute any of the foregoing could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The requirements of COBRA have been met with respect to each such Employee Benefit Plan and each Employee Benefit Plan maintained by an ERISA Affiliate, which is an Employee Welfare Benefit Plan subject to COBRA, except where such failure could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on Seller.

(iii) All contributions (including all employer contributions and employee salary reduction contributions) that are due have been made within the time periods prescribed by ERISA and the Code to each such Employee Benefit Plan that is an Employee Pension Benefit Plan and all contributions for any period ending on or before the Closing Date which are not yet due have been made to each such Employee Pension Benefit Plan or accrued in accordance with the past custom and practice of Seller and its Subsidiaries. All premiums or other payments for all periods ending on or before the Closing Date have been paid with respect to each such Employee Benefit Plan that is an Employee Welfare Benefit Plan.

(iv) Each such Employee Benefit Plan which is intended to meet the requirements of a “qualified plan” under Code §401(a) has received a determination from the Internal Revenue Service that such Employee Benefit Plan is so qualified, and, to Seller’s Knowledge, nothing has occurred since the date of such determination that could adversely affect the qualified status of any such Employee Benefit Plan. All such Employee Benefit Plans have been or will be timely amended for the requirements of the Tax legislation commonly known as “GUST” and “EGTRRA” and have been or will be submitted to the Internal Revenue Service for a favorable determination letter on the GUST requirements within the remedial amendment period prescribed by GUST.

(v) There have been no prohibited transactions with respect to any such Employee Benefit Plan or any Employee Benefit Plan maintained by an ERISA Affiliate,

- 41 –

except where the occurrence of such Prohibited Transaction could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on Seller. To Seller’s Knowledge, no fiduciary has any Liability for breach of fiduciary duty or any other failure to act or comply in connection with the administration or investment of the assets of any such Employee Benefit Plan. No action, suit, proceeding, hearing, or investigation with respect to the administration or the investment of the assets of any such Employee Benefit Plan (other than routine claims for benefits) is pending or, to the Knowledge of Seller or any director or officer (or employee with responsibility for employee benefits matters) of Seller or Subsidiaries, threatened. Neither the Selling Stockholder nor the directors and officers (or employee with responsibility for employee benefits matters) of Seller or any Subsidiary has any Knowledge of any basis for any such action, suit, proceeding, hearing, or investigation.

(vi) Seller has delivered to Buyer correct and complete copies of the plan documents and summary plan descriptions, the most recent determination letter received from the Internal Revenue Service, the most recent annual report (Form 5500, with all applicable attachments), and all related trust agreements, insurance contracts, and other funding arrangements which implement each such Employee Benefit Plan.

(b) Neither Seller, nor any of its Subsidiaries, nor any ERISA Affiliate contributes to, has any obligation to contribute to, or has any liability under or with respect to any Employee Pension Benefit Plan that is a “defined benefit plan” (as defined in ERISA §(3(5)).

- 43 –

Section 5.14 be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and policies of each jurisdiction in which enforcement may be sought, and that the unenforceability of any provisions of this Section 5.14 shall not render unenforceable, or impair, the remainder of the provisions of this Section 5.14. Accordingly, if at the time of enforcement of any provision of this Section 5.14 a court of competent jurisdiction holds that the restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the Parties hereto agree that the maximum period, scope or geographic area reasonable under such circumstances will be substituted for the stated period, scope or geographical area and that such court shall be allowed to revise the restrictions contained herein to cover the maximum period, scope and geographical area permitted by applicable law.

5.17 Management of Buyer.

In the event that either: (1) Buyer or InPhonic terminates (A) both Principal Employees or (B) *** of the key employees set forth in Schedule 5.17 (“Key Employees”) for other than cause (as such term may be defined under an applicable employment agreement) during the period from the Closing Date to the end of the Second Measuring Period (other than because of prorata reductions in force throughout Buyer ’s employees or as otherwise provided in this paragraph) or (2) Buyer or InPhonic does not operate Buyer as an independent division, in a manner consistent with other divisions, operating within the InPhonic group of companies or fails to provide such division the resources reasonably necessary for the operation of the Business as presently conducted as of the Closing Date, then upon either (1) or (2) of this Section 5.17 occurring,

- 44 –

Seller shall be entitled to receive from Buyer up to the amount of the Earn Out Payments as set forth in Section 2.6(b)(i) and Section 2.6(b)(ii) that Seller has not yet been paid and which Seller might have become eligible to receive during an unexpired measuring period (the “Acceleration Payment”). By way of example, if either of (1) or (2) occurs during the Second Measuring Period, and Seller did not receive any Earn Out Payments during the First Measuring Period, then Seller would only be entitled to receive the Earn Out Payments for the Second Measuring Period (not those Seller did not achieve in the First Measuring Period) and only to the extent that the Earn Out Payments during the Second Measuring Period have not yet been paid by Buyer to Seller under the terms of Section 2.6. The Parties agree that the Acceleration Payment that Seller may receive under this Section 5.17 shall not under any circumstances result in Seller receiving payments in excess of the aggregate of the Earn Out Payments under Section 2.6(a). For purposes of (1)(B) above, InPhonic or Buyer shall have the option to seek to replace *** of the Key Employees who are terminated other than for cause (not Principal Employees who are also Key Employees) with employees or consultants possessing equivalent experience and expertise in a reasonable period of time, and upon finding such replacement(s) such event would not be deemed to trigger the Acceleration Payment.

Buyer’s obligation to deliver the Acceleration Payment under (1) above expressly will not apply in the event that any of the following occur: (a) the Key Employee does not accept employment with Buyer, (b) a Principal Employee and/or Key Employee voluntarily terminates employment with Buyer or is otherwise terminated by any Principal Employee with or without cause, (c) a Principal Employee and/or Key Employee is terminated for cause, (d) a Principal Employee and/or Key Employee is employed by a subsidiary or Affiliate of Buyer as a result of a corporate restructuring or reorganization, provided such shift in employment is applicable to similarly-situated senior executive personnel, or (e) a Principal Employee and/or Key Employee is no longer employed due to death or disability. Any Earn Out Payments that become payable to Seller pursuant to this Section 5.17 will be subject to the terms and conditions of the Section 2.6(d) and Section 2.6(e). Any dispute arising under this Section 5.17 between the Parties, shall be resolved through the Arbitration Procedures set forth in Section 2.6(e).

5.18 Seller Stock Consideration Resale.

Buyer will notify Seller of the proposed filing of any such registration statement during such one year period at least 10 days prior to the anticipated date of

- 45 –

filing with the SEC (“Registration Notice”). The information about the filing of any such registration statement is material non-public information, until such information is filed with the SEC, and subject to Seller’s obligations under Section 8.1. The ability of Seller to include shares of Stock Consideration in a registration statement of InPhonic shall be subject to Seller’s obligations under this Agreement, including Sections 3.30 and 5.10, any applicable underwriter’s reduction of shares held by existing stockholders eligible to be included in a registration statement or the terms of the Seventh Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement or InPhonic’s decision, in its sole discretion, not to continue with any such registration statement. Seller agrees to execute and deliver such other agreements as may be reasonably requested by InPhonic or an underwriter in connection with the registration of such shares. In addition, if requested by InPhonic or an underwriter, Seller agrees to provide, within five (5) days of such request, such information as may be required by InPhonic or such underwriter in connection with the completion of any public offering of InPhonic securities pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act.

If the Selling Stockholder is unable to exchange the Rebate Certificates acquired by Buyer for new certificates having an equivalent aggregate dollar value during the one year period after the Closing Date, then the Selling Stockholder shall pay to Buyer within five (5) days after the expiration of the one year period, the cash amount equal to the difference of (i) Three Hundred Twenty Nine Thousand Four Hundred Dollars ($329,400.00) less (ii) the dollar value of the Rebate Certificates that the Selling Stockholder was able to exchange for new rebate certificates that were able to be issued by Buyer in the ordinary course of its business during the one year period.

(b) As soon as practicable after obtaining knowledge thereof, any Buyer Indemnified Person shall notify Seller of any claim or demand which the Buyer Indemnified Person has determined has given or could give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement. A failure to give such notice shall not negate a right to indemnification hereunder; provided, however, that the Buyer Indemnified Person shall bear any amount of Damages resulting directly from a failure to give a timely notice. If such claim or demand relates to a claim or demand asserted by a third party against the Buyer Indemnified Person and if Seller acknowledges in writing its obligations to indemnify and hold harmless under this Section 7.1, Seller shall have the right to employ such counsel that is reasonably acceptable to Buyer to defend any such claim or demand asserted against the Buyer Indemnified Person. The Buyer Indemnified Person shall have the right to participate in the defense of any said claim or demand at its own cost and expense, provided that if the Buyer Indemnified Person bears a greater risk of loss than Seller, the Buyer Indemnified Person shall control the defense of said claim or demand.

(c) The Buyer Indemnified Person shall make available to Seller or its representatives all records and other materials required for use in contesting any claim or demand asserted by a third party against any Buyer Indemnified Person. Whether or not Seller so elects to defend any such claim or demand, the Buyer Indemnified Person shall not have any obligation

- 50 –

to defend any such claim or demand and the Buyer Indemnified Person shall not waive any rights it may have against Seller under this Section 7.1 with respect to any such claim or demand by electing or failing to elect to defend any such claim, provided that the Buyer Indemnified Person against which a claim or demand is asserted in the first instance shall file in a timely manner any answer or pleading with respect to a suit or proceeding in such action as is necessary to avoid default or other adverse results.

(d) The indemnification obligations of Seller shall survive until the second anniversary of the Closing Date with the exception of any claims relating to breaches of representations and warranties that Seller had Knowledge of at any time prior to the Closing Date, intentional breach of a covenant, gross negligence, fraud, willful misconduct, claims related to Environmental Laws, Liabilities and Encumbrances related to Seller Taxes or Intellectual Property infringement issues, which shall survive until expiration of the applicable statutory periods; provided, however, that Seller indemnification obligations hereunder shall survive with respect to any claim asserted by a Buyer Indemnified Person prior to expiration of the applicable indemnification period as provided herein.

(e) There shall be no liability for Seller under this Section 7.1, unless the amount of Damages incurred by a Buyer Indemnified Person exceeds *** Dollars ($***) in the aggregate (the “Deductible Amount”). The Deductible Amount is recoverable along with all other amounts for Damages by a Buyer Indemnified Person.

- 51 –

(b) As soon as practicable after obtaining Knowledge thereof, any Seller Indemnified Person shall notify Buyer of any claim or demand which the Seller Indemnified Person has determined has given or could give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement. A failure to give such notice shall not negate a right to indemnification hereunder; provided, however, that the Seller Indemnified Person shall bear any amount of Damages resulting directly from a failure to give a timely notice. If such claim or demand relates to a claim or demand asserted by a third party against the Seller Indemnified Person and if Buyer acknowledges in writing its obligations to indemnify and hold harmless under this Section 7.2, Buyer shall have the right to employ such counsel that is reasonably acceptable to Seller to defend any such claim or demand asserted against the Seller Indemnified Person. The Seller Indemnified Person shall have the right to participate in the defense of any said claim or demand at its own cost and expense, provided that if the Seller Indemnified Person bears a greater risk of loss than Buyer, the Seller Indemnified Person shall control the defense of said claim or demand.

(c) The Seller Indemnified Person shall make available to Buyer or its representatives all records and other materials required for use in contesting any claim or demand asserted by a third party against any Seller Indemnified Person. Whether or not Buyer so elects to defend any such claim or demand, the Seller Indemnified Person shall not have any obligation to defend any such claim or demand and the Seller Indemnified Person shall not waive any rights it may have against Buyer under this Section 7.2 with respect to any such claim or demand by electing or failing to elect to defend any such claim, provided that the Seller Indemnified Person against which a claim or demand is asserted in the first instance shall file in a timely manner any answer or pleading with respect to a suit or proceeding in such action as is necessary to avoid default or other adverse results.

(d) Buyer and InPhonic’s indemnification obligations under this Agreement survive until the second anniversary of the Closing Date with the exception of any claims relating to the following: (i) delivery of the Earn Out Payments in the Second Measuring Period, in which case the indemnification obligations shall survive until the earlier to occur of: (A) Seller’s receipt of Earn Out Payment with respect to the Second Measuring Period; or (B) the Parties’ determination that Seller is not to receive any Earn Out Payment with respect to Second Measuring Period; or (ii) Seller’s post Closing obligation or Liability to Echostar Satellite L.L.C. under that certain Assignment and Assumption Agreement by and between VMC, as “Assignor,” and Buyer, as “Assignee” (the “EchoStar Assignment”) in which case the indemnification obligations shall survive until VMC has no obligations under the EchoStar Assignment.

(e) There shall be no liability for Buyer or InPhonic under this Section 7.2, unless the amount of Damages incurred by a Seller Indemnified Person exceeds the Deductible Amount. The Deductible Amount is recoverable along with all other amounts for Damages by a Seller Indemnified Person. Buyer’s and InPhonic’s collective liability to a Seller Indemnified Person under this Section 7.2 shall be limited to $*** in the aggregate, other than Damages that result from failure to pay the Purchase Price, fraud or intentional misconduct, whereupon the Seller Indemnified Person may seek all additional remedies available at law or in equity.

7.3 Net Indemnity Payments.

Any amounts payable under Sections 7.1 or 7.2 may be treated by Buyer and Seller as an adjustment to the Purchase Price, and shall be calculated after giving effect to (a) any proceeds actually received from insurance policies covering the Damages that is the subject to the claim for indemnity as provided in this Agreement and (b) the actual realized Tax benefit to the Buyer Indemnified Person or the Seller Indemnified Person, as the case may be (the “Indemnified Person”), resulting from the Damages that is the subject of the indemnity; provided that to the extent that any Tax benefit is realized in a Tax year other than the year in which the indemnity is paid, then the Indemnified Person shall make a payment to the Person who earlier made the indemnity payment in the amount of such realized Tax benefit in the year in which it is realized. Neither of the Parties shall have any obligation to submit a claim under any insurance policy held by such Party for Damages. For purposes of this Section 7.3, an actual realized Tax benefit is an actual reduction in taxes payable or a refund of Taxes previously paid.
