5.2 Investigation. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement and the Disclosure Schedule shall not be affected or diminished in any way by any investigation (or failure to investigate) at any time by or on behalf of the party for whose benefit such representations, warranties, covenants and agreements were made.

5.3 Amega’s Indemnification. Mesa agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Amega and each of Amega’s shareholders, directors, officers, employees, Affiliates and agents from and against any loss, claim, liability, cost, expense or other damages, including reasonable legal fees and expenses (an “Amega Loss”), which is caused by or arises out of: (a) any breach or default in the performance by Mesa of any covenant or agreement made by Mesa in this Agreement; (b) any breach of any representation or warranty made by Mesa in this Agreement; and (c) any and all Litigation incident to any of the foregoing.

5.4 Mesa’s Indemnification. Amega and the Sole Shareholder, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify and hold harmless Mesa, and each of its shareholders, directors, officers, employees, Affiliates and agents from and against any loss, claim, liability, cost, expense or other damages (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) (a “Mesa Loss”) which is caused by or arises out of: (a) any breach or default in the performance by Amega or the Sole Shareholder of any covenant or agreement made by Amega or the Sole Shareholder in this Agreement; (b) any breach of any representation or warranty made by Amega or the Sole Shareholder in this Agreement; and (c) any and all Litigation incident to any of the foregoing.

5.5 Indemnity Procedure. A party or parties hereto agreeing to be responsible for or to indemnify against any matter pursuant to this Agreement is referred to herein as the “Indemnifying Party” and the other party or parties claiming indemnity is referred to as the “Indemnified Party”. Amega Losses or Mesa Losses are referred to herein as “Losses”.

(a) An Indemnified Party under this Agreement shall, with respect to claims asserted against such party by any third party, give written notice to the Indemnifying Party of any liability which might give rise to a claim for indemnity under this Agreement within thirty (30) calendar days of the receipt of any written claim from any such third party, but not later than twenty (20) days prior to the date any answer or responsive pleading is due, and with respect to other matters for which the Indemnified Party may seek indemnification, give written notice as soon as practicable to the Indemnifying Party after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of any fact, event or condition which may give rise to a claim for indemnity; provided, however, that any failure to give such notice will not waive any rights of the Indemnified Party except to the extent the rights of the Indemnifying Party are materially prejudiced.

(b) The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its election, to take over the defense or settlement of such claim by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party at least fifteen (15) days prior to the time when an answer or other responsive pleading or notice with respect thereto is required. If the Indemnifying Party makes such election, it may conduct the defense of such claim through counsel of its choosing (subject to the Indemnified Party’s approval of such counsel, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), shall be solely responsible for the expenses of such defense and shall be bound by the results of its defense or settlement of the claim. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle any such claim without prior notice to and consultation with the Indemnified Party, and no such settlement involving any equitable relief or which might have an adverse effect on the Indemnified Party may be agreed to without the written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). So long as the Indemnifying Party is diligently contesting any such claim in good faith, the Indemnified Party may pay or settle such claim only at its own expense and the Indemnifying Party will not be responsible for the fees of separate legal counsel to the Indemnified Party, unless the named parties to any proceeding include both parties and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate. If the Indemnifying Party does not make such election, or having made such election does not, in the reasonable opinion of the Indemnified Party, proceed in a commercially diligent manner to defend such claim, then the Indemnified Party may (after written notice to the Indemnifying Party), at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, elect to take over the defense of and proceed to handle such claim in its discretion and the Indemnifying Party shall be bound by any defense or settlement that the Indemnified Party may make in good faith with respect to such claim. In connection therewith, the Indemnifying Party will fully cooperate with the Indemnified Party should the Indemnified Party elect to take over the defense of any such claim.

(c) The parties agree to cooperate in defending such third party claims and the Indemnified Party shall provide such cooperation and such access to its books, records and properties as the Indemnifying Party shall reasonably request with respect to any matter for which indemnification is sought hereunder; and the parties hereto agree to cooperate with each other in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense thereof.

(d) With regard to claims of third parties for which indemnification is payable hereunder, such indemnification shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party upon the earliest to occur of: (i) the entry of a judgment against the Indemnified Party and the expiration of any applicable appeal period, or if earlier, five (5) days prior to the date that the judgment creditor has the right to execute the judgment; (ii) the entry of an unappealable judgment or final appellate decision against the Indemnified Party; or (iii) a settlement of the claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided that there is no dispute as to the applicability of indemnification and provided that the Indemnifying Party is responsible under Subsection (b) above for the fees of the Indemnified Party’s separate legal counsel, the reasonable expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party shall be reimbursed on a current basis by the Indemnifying Party if such expenses are a liability of the Indemnifying Party. With regard to other claims for which indemnification is payable hereunder, such indemnification shall be paid promptly by the Indemnifying Party upon demand by the Indemnified Party.

5.6 Limitations on Indemnification Obligations.

(a) The maximum aggregate indemnification for all Losses of an Indemnified Party shall be limited to the Purchase Price exclusive of all earned, accrued and paid Earn Out Payments. The maximum aggregate indemnification of an Indemnified Party shall be net of any amounts recovered by the Indemnified Party under insurance policies with respect to such Loss. The Indemnified Party shall in a timely fashion submit a claim to its insurance carrier with respect to any Losses for which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification hereunder.

(b) An Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to indemnify against Losses of the Indemnified Party until the aggregate amount of Losses exceeds Ten Thousand Dollars ($25,000) (the “Indemnification Threshold”), in which event the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to such indemnification from the Indemnifying Party for all Losses; provided, however, that the Indemnification Threshold shall not apply to Losses which are caused by or arise out of any fraudulent act of the Indemnifying Party or Losses that are caused by or arise out of any intentional breach in the performance by the Indemnifying Party of any covenant or agreement made by the Indemnifying Party in this Agreement.

(c) The obligations of indemnification contained herein shall survive Closing for a period of (i) with respect to indemnification arising from a third party claim, three (3) months following the expiration of the statute of limitations applicable to such third party claim, and (ii) with respect to indemnification arising from any other cause or claim, three (3) years after the Closing Date.

5.7 Employees and Employee Benefits.

(a) Amega will use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause its employees who are employed or retained in the operation of the Business, including the employees set forth on Section 4.13 of the Disclosure Schedule, to make available their employment services to Mesa. Mesa is not obligated to hire any employee of Amega but may, prior to the Closing at times mutually agreed upon with Amega, interview and may make offers of employment to any or all of the Amega employees who are employed or retained in the operation of the Business. Subject to applicable Law, Mesa will have reasonable access to the personnel records (including without limitation performance appraisals, disciplinary actions, and grievances) of Amega for the purpose of preparing for and conducting employment interviews with any or all of such employees. Such employees who accept Mesa’s offer of employment (the “Hired Employees”) effective as of the Closing shall become employees of Mesa. The Hired Employees shall be entitled to a transfer of tenure for prior employment with Amega for the purpose of computing health and other benefits. Prior to the Closing, Amega will provide or cause the Hired Employees to provide to Mesa completed I-9 forms and attachments with respect to all Hired Employees. Effective immediately before the Closing, Amega will terminate the employment of all of the Hired Employees.

(b) Mesa will set its own initial terms and conditions of employment for the Hired Employees and others it may hire, including without limitation work rules, benefits and salary and wage structure, all as permitted by applicable Law. Amega will be solely liable for any termination notice severance or similar payment required to be made to any of its employees as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(c) It is understood and agreed that (i) Mesa’s expressed intention to extend offers of employment as set forth in this Section will not constitute a contract (express or implied) on the part of Mesa to a post-Closing employment relationship of any fixed term or duration or upon any terms or

conditions other than those that Mesa may establish pursuant to individual offers of employment and (ii) employment offered by Mesa is “at will” and all Hired Employees will remain at will employees and the employment of such Hired Employees may be terminated by Mesa or by the Hired Employee at any time for any reason. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement will be deemed to prevent or restrict in any way the right of Mesa to terminate, reassign, promote or demote any of the Hired Employees after the Closing, or to change adversely or favorably the title, powers, duties, responsibilities, functions, locations, salaries, other compensation or terms or conditions of employment of such employees.

(d) From and after the Closing, Amega will remain solely responsible for all liabilities to or in respect of its employees and former employees, including Hired Employees, and beneficiaries and dependents of any such employee or former employee, relating to or arising in connection with or as a result of: (i) Amega employment of any such employee or former employee or the actual or constructive termination of employment of any such employee or former employee (including without limitation in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and including the payment of any termination, notice, severance or similar payments and the provision of health plan continuation coverage in accordance with the requirements of Sections 601 et seq. of ERISA and Section 4980B of the Code), or (ii) accrued but unpaid salaries, wages, bonuses, incentive compensation, or other compensation or payroll items as a result of employment by Amega.

(e) From and after the Closing, Amega will remain solely responsible for all liabilities to or in respect of the Hired Employees and their beneficiaries or dependents relating to or arising in connection with any claims, whether such claims are asserted before, on or after the Closing Date, for life, disability, accidental death or dismemberment, supplemental unemployment compensation, medical, dental, hospitalization, other health or other welfare or fringe benefits or expense reimbursements which claims relate to or are based upon an occurrence before the Closing Date (including claims for continuing treatment in respect of any illness, accident, disability, condition or confinement which occurs or commences before the Closing Date).

(f) From and after the Closing, Mesa will be solely responsible for all liabilities to or in respect of the Hired Employees, and beneficiaries and dependents of any such Hired Employees, relating to or arising in connection with or as a result of: (i) Mesa’s employment of any such Hired Employee or the actual or constructive termination of any such Hired Employee (including the payment of any termination, notice, severance or similar payments and the provision of health plan continuation coverage in accordance with the requirements of Sections 601 et seq. of ERISA and Section 4980B of the Code), or (ii) accrued but unpaid salaries, wages, bonuses, incentive compensation, or other compensation or payroll items as a result of employment by Mesa, including, but not limited to, vacation time accrued while in the employ of Amega but not yet taken by the Hired Employees.

(g) From and after the Closing, Mesa will be solely responsible for all liabilities to or in respect of the Hired Employees and their beneficiaries or dependents relating to or arising in connection with any claims for life, disability, accidental death or dismemberment, supplemental unemployment compensation, medical, dental, hospitalization, other health or other welfare or fringe benefits or expense reimbursements which claims relate to or are based upon an occurrence on or after the Closing Date (including claims for continuing treatment in respect of any illness, accident, disability, condition or confinement which occurs or commences on or after the Closing Date).

Covenants

7.1 General Confidentiality. Each of the Parties will treat and hold as such all of the Confidential Information of the other Parties, refrain from using any of the Confidential Information except in connection with this Agreement, and unless there is a closing on the sale contemplated by this Agreement, deliver promptly to the owner of such Confidential Information or destroy, at the request and option of the owner of the Confidential Information, all tangible embodiments (and all copies) of the Confidential Information which are in its possession. In the event that any of the Parties is requested or required (by oral question or request for information or documents in any legal proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigative demand, or similar process) to disclose any Confidential Information, that Party will notify the affected Party promptly of the request or requirement so that the affected Party may seek an appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 7.1. If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, any of the Parties is, on the advice of counsel, compelled to disclose any Confidential Information to any tribunal or else stand liable for contempt, that Party may disclose the Confidential Information to the tribunal; provided, however, that the disclosing Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, at the request and expense of the affected Party, an order or other assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such portion of the Confidential Information required to be disclosed as the affected Party shall designate. The foregoing provisions shall not apply to any Confidential Information which (i) is generally available to the public immediately prior to the time of disclosure or (ii) is or becomes available to the receiving Party on a nonconfidential basis from a third party who, to the best of such receiving Party’s knowledge, is not prohibited from disclosing such information to such receiving Party by a legal, contractual or fiduciary obligation to the affected Party.

7.2 General. In case at any time after the Closing Date any further action is necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, each of the Parties will take such further action (including the execution and delivery of such further instruments and documents) as any other Party reasonably may request, all at the sole cost and expense of the requesting Party (unless the requesting Party is entitled to indemnification therefor under Article V).

7.3 Bulk Sales Law. Mesa and Amega shall comply with the provisions of any Laws or tax Laws with respect to bulk transfers of New Jersey in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Mesa and Amega shall cooperate with each other in completing and simultaneously filing the Notification of Sale, Transfer or Assignment in Bulk (Form C-9600) and the Asset Transfer Tax Declaration (Form TTD) with the State of New Jersey, Department of Treasury, Division of Taxation (the “Division”). Mesa shall withhold from the Closing Payment and deposit in escrow with Mesa’s counsel the amount requested by the Division to be so withheld, if any. Such withheld amount shall not be released to Amega until the Division informs Mesa or its counsel that it may forward the withheld amount to Amega without incurring liability to the State of New Jersey for doing so. Upon being so informed, Mesa’s counsel shall promptly deliver to Amega the withheld amount less any amount required to be paid to the Division.

8.2 Entire Agreement; Incorporation. This Agreement and the documents and instruments and other agreements among the Parties hereto as contemplated by or referred to herein contain every obligation and understanding between the Parties relating to the subject matter hereof and merges all prior discussions, negotiations, agreements and understandings, both written and oral, if any, between them, and none of the Parties shall be bound by any conditions, definitions, understandings, warranties or representations other than as expressly provided or referred to herein. All schedules, exhibits and other documents and agreements executed and delivered pursuant hereto are incorporated herein as if set forth in their entirety herein.

8.3 Binding Effect. Subject to Section 8.4 below, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors, heirs, personal representatives, legal representatives, and permitted assigns.

8.4 Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned by any Party without the written prior consent of the other Party. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, as security for certain obligations Mesa has to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Mesa may assign to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., without the consent of the other Party, its rights and remedies with respect to any of the representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities of Amega and the Sole Shareholder and/or all of its other rights under this Agreement and the other documents executed in connection herewith.

8.5 Waiver and Amendment. Any representation, warranty, covenant, term or condition of this Agreement which may legally be waived, may be waived, or the time of performance thereof extended, at any time by the Party hereto entitled to the benefit thereof. Any such waiver or extension shall be evidenced by an instrument in writing executed on behalf of the Party against whom such waiver or extension is sought to be charged. No waiver by any Party hereto, whether express or implied, of its rights under any provision of this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of such Party’s rights under such provisions at any other time or a waiver of such Party’s rights under any other provision of this Agreement. No failure by any Party thereof to take any action against any breach of this Agreement or default by another Party shall constitute a waiver of the former Party’s right to enforce any provision of this Agreement or to take action against such breach or default or any subsequent breach or default by such other Party. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of all of the Parties hereto.

8.6 No Third Party Beneficiary. Nothing expressed or implied in this Agreement is intended, or shall be construed, to confer upon or give any Person other than the Parties hereto and their respective heirs, personal representatives, legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement, except as otherwise provided herein.

8.7 Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement, or the application thereof, shall be declared invalid, void or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remainder of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the Parties hereto. The Parties further agree to replace such invalid, void or unenforceable provision with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid, void or unenforceable provision.

8.8 Expenses. Except as otherwise provided herein, each Party agrees to pay, without right of reimbursement from the other Party, the costs incurred by it incident to the performance of its obligations under this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, costs incident to the preparation of this Agreement, and the fees and disbursements of counsel, accountants and consultants employed by such Party in connection herewith.

8.9 Headings. The table of contents and the section and other headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of any provisions of this Agreement.

8.10 Other Remedies; Injunctive Relief. Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a Party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. The Parties hereto agree that

irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. In any action at law or suit in equity to enforce this Agreement or the rights of the Parties hereunder, the prevailing Party in any such action or suit shall be entitled to receive a reasonable sum for its attorneys’ fees and all other reasonable costs and expenses incurred in such action or suit.

8.13 Governing Law. This Agreement has been entered into and shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the Laws of the State of Colorado, without reference to the choice of law principles thereof.

8.14 Jurisdiction and Venue. This Agreement shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Colorado. The parties to this Agreement agree that any breach of any term or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a breach occurring in the State of Colorado by virtue of a failure to perform an act required to be performed in the State of Colorado and irrevocably and expressly agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Colorado for the purpose of resolving any disputes among the parties relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. The parties irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or any judgment entered by any court in respect hereof brought in the State of Colorado, and further irrevocably waive any claim that any suit, action or proceeding brought in the State of Colorado has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

8.15 Participation of Parties. The Parties hereby agree that they have been represented by counsel during the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and, therefore, waive the application of any law, regulation, holding, or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the Party drafting such agreement or document.

8.16 Further Assurances. The Parties hereto shall deliver any and all other instruments or documents reasonably required to be delivered pursuant to, or necessary or proper in order to give effect to, all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement including, without limitation, all necessary instruments of transfer as may be necessary or desirable to transfer full and complete ownership of the Purchase Assets free and clear of any liens or Encumbrances.
