Section 2.05. Assignment of Contracts and Rights. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign any Purchased Asset or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom if such assignment, without the consent of a third party thereto, would constitute a breach or other contravention of such Purchased Asset or in any way adversely affect the rights of the Buyer or Seller thereunder. Seller will use commercially reasonable efforts (but without any payment of money by Buyer) to obtain the consent of the other parties to any such Purchased Asset or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder for the assignment thereof to Buyer as Buyer may request. If such consent is not obtained, or if an attempted assignment thereof would be ineffective or would adversely affect the rights of Seller thereunder so that Buyer would not in fact receive all such rights, Seller and Buyer will diligently cooperate in good faith in the thirty-five (35) days after the Closing to arrive at a mutually agreeable arrangement under which Buyer would obtain the benefits and assume the obligations thereunder in accordance with this Agreement, including subcontracting, sub-licensing, or sub-leasing to Buyer, or under which Seller would enforce for the benefit of Buyer, with Buyer assuming Seller’s obligations, any and all rights of Seller against a third party thereto. Seller will promptly pay to Buyer when received all monies received by Seller under any Purchased Asset or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder, except to the extent the same represents an Excluded Asset.

Section 2.06 Purchase Price.

(a) The purchase price for the Purchased Assets (the “Purchase Price”) is One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000), less any adjustment as provided below, plus Five Hundred Thousand shares of Common Stock.

If Seller’s cash and accounts receivable collected on account of contracts that are not Excluded Assets are less than $300,000, payment and the purchase price will be adjusted accordingly.

Without limiting the foregoing sentence, neither Seller nor the Members shall issue or make, or cause to have issued or made, any public release or other public announcement concerning this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, without the advance approval in writing of the form and substance thereof by Buyer, except as required by law (in which case, so far as possible, there shall be consultation among the parties prior to such announcement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall have the right, in its sole discretion, and without consultation with Seller or the Members, to make such announcements, and to file such reports and documents, as it may determine, upon advice of counsel, to be required by applicable law and regulation.

Section 6.10. Confidentiality. After the Closing, Seller, the Members and their Affiliates will hold, and will use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause their respective officers, directors, employees, accountants, counsel, consultants, advisors and agents to hold, in confidence, unless compelled to disclose by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of law, all confidential documents and information concerning the Business except to the extent that such information can be shown to have been in the public domain through no fault of Seller or its Affiliates.

Section 8.02. Indemnification.

(a) Seller and the Members hereby jointly and severally indemnify Buyer and its Affiliates, directors, officers and employees (the “Buyer Indemnitees”) against and agrees to hold each of them harmless from any and all Damages incurred or suffered by any Buyer Indemnitee arising out of: (i) any misrepresentation or breach of warranty (each such misrepresentation and breach of warranty a “Warranty Breach”) or breach of covenant or agreement made or to be performed by the Members and/or Seller pursuant to this Agreement or the Collateral Agreements; (ii) the assets, business or operations of Seller prior to the Closing Date; (iii) any Excluded Asset; (iv) any Excluded Liability; or (v) the failure of Seller to be duly qualified to do business in a particular jurisdiction as a foreign limited liability company.

Section 8.03 Procedures.

(a) A Person making a claim for indemnity under Section 8.02 is hereinafter referred to as an “Indemnified Party” and the party against whom such claim is asserted is hereinafter referred to as the “Indemnifying Party.” All claims by any Indemnified Party under Section 8.02 hereof shall be asserted and resolved in accordance with the following provisions.

(b) In the event, from time to time, any Indemnified Party determines that it has suffered a loss for which indemnification is available pursuant to this Agreement, other than as a result of a third-party claim (any such non-third-party claim, a “Loss”), the following procedure shall be followed:

(i) The Indemnified Party shall give written notice of any such claim (a “Loss Notice”) to the Indemnifying Party specifying in reasonable detail the amount of the claimed Loss (the “Loss Amount”), the basis for such Loss and, in the case of a Loss suffered by the Buyer, whether (at its sole option) the Buyer intends to offset the amount of its Loss against payments of cash or stock to become due the Seller pursuant to this Agreement.

- 38 -

(ii) Within twenty (20) days after delivery of a Loss Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall provide to the Indemnified Party, a written response (a “Response Notice”) in which the Indemnifying Party (i) agrees that it is responsible to indemnify the Indemnified Party for the Loss Amount and, in the case of a claim for indemnification made by the Buyer for which it has elected to offset against payments of cash or stock, whether the Indemnifying Party agrees that an offset in the full Loss Amount may be made as elected by the Buyer or (ii) rejecting the indemnification claim because it does not constitute a Loss for which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement. If no Response Notice is delivered by the Indemnifying Party within such twenty (20) day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have agreed that it is obligated for the entire Loss Amount.

(iii) If the Indemnifying Party is the Seller and the Members, if the Indemnifying Parties agree (or are deemed to have agreed pursuant to clause (ii) above) that they are responsible for the Loss Amount, an offset may be made in an amount equal to the Loss Amount.

(iv) If the Indemnifying Party in the Response Notice contests its or their obligation to pay the Loss Amount, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any such dispute. If any such dispute cannot be resolved within thirty (30) days after the receipt by the Indemnified Party of the Response Notice, the Parties shall submit the matter to the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) for binding arbitration to be conducted in Rochester, NY, in accordance with the AAA commercial arbitration rules in effect at the time such matter is submitted. If any such matter is submitted to the AAA as provided herein, (A) each of the Parties will furnish to AAA such workpapers and other documents and information as AAA may request and will be afforded the opportunity to present to AAA any material relevant to the matter, (B) the determination by AAA, as set forth in a notice delivered to the Parties, will be binding and conclusive on all parties.

(v) In connection with any such commercial arbitration, the following rules also shall apply: (A) any party shall have the right to have counsel represent such party at the arbitration hearing and in pre-arbitration proceedings; (B) all parties shall be permitted to conduct discovery in accordance with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure; (C) the arbitrator(s) shall have the authority to resolve any discovery disputes and to invoke an action to cease further discovery; (D) each party to any arbitration proceeding shall have the right to a written transcript made of the arbitration proceedings; (E) each party shall have the right to file post-arbitration briefs, which shall be considered by the arbitrator(s); and (F) each party shall bear its own costs and expenses and attorney’s fees in connection with such arbitration.

- 39 -

(vi) The exercise of any right of offset by Buyer in good faith, whether or not ultimately determined to be justified, will not constitute a breach of this Agreement. Neither the exercise of nor the failure to exercise such right of offset or reimbursement will constitute an election of remedies or limit Buyer in any manner in the enforcement of any other remedies available to Buyer except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement.

(vii) For purposes of satisfying the indemnification obligations under this Section 8.03(b), the value of each share of Stock shall be equal to the closing price of the Buyer’s Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date upon which such indemnification obligations are satisfied.

(c) If any claim or demand for which an Indemnifying Party would be liable to an Indemnified Party is asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party by a third party (an “Indemnifiable Third Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall with reasonable promptness notify in writing the Indemnifying Party of such claim or demand stating with reasonable specificity the circumstances of the Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification; 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 actually prejudiced or to the extent that any applicable period set forth in Section 8.01 has expired without such notice being given. After receipt by the Indemnifying Party of such notice, then upon reasonable notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party, or upon the request of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall defend, manage and conduct any proceedings, negotiations or communications involving any claimant whose claim is the subject of the Indemnified Party’s notice to the Indemnifying Party as set forth above if such claim is an Indemnifiable Third Party Claim, and shall take all actions necessary, including the posting of such bond or other security as may be required by any Governmental Authority, so as to enable the Indemnifiable Third Party Claim to be defended against or resolved without expense or other action by the Indemnified Party. Upon request of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall, to the extent it may legally do so and to the extent that it is compensated in advance by the Indemnifying Party for any costs and expenses thereby incurred,

(i) take such action as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request in connection with such action,

(ii) allow the Indemnifying Party to dispute such action in the name of the Indemnified Party and to conduct a defense to such action on behalf of the Indemnified Party, or

(iii) render to the Indemnifying Party all such assistance as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request in connection with such dispute and defense.

- 40 -

(b) The Members and Seller specifically agree that any claims due and owing for indemnification by the Buyer against the Members and Seller (or any of them) shall, at the sole option of the Buyer, be first satisfied by deducting and otherwise offsetting such claims against any amounts due the Seller pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The Buyer shall have full recourse against the Members and Seller (including their assets of whatsoever kind or nature) for payment of such indemnification claims. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Members and Seller expressly agree that Buyer may settle or compromise any individual Indemnifiable Claim for indemnity they make hereunder to the extent that the amount of the settlement or compromise is less than or equal to $5,000 and the settlement or compromise does not impose any injunctive relief with respect to Seller or the Members; provided that the aggregate amount of such claims that Buyer may settle or compromise pursuant to the foregoing sentence is $50,000.
