The Indemnification Escrow Amount shall be disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement.

SECTION 3.04

Dissenting Shares.

(a) No Conversion. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any shares of Company Stock (“Dissenting Shares”) held by a stockholder who has demanded and perfected appraisal or dissenters’ rights for such shares in accordance with the VSCA and who has not effectively withdrawn or lost such appraisal or dissenters’ rights as of the Effective Time (each a “Dissenting Stockholder”) shall not be converted into or represent a right to receive a portion of the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 3.02, but the holder thereof shall only be entitled to such rights as are granted by the VSCA.

(b) Withdrawal or Loss of Dissenters’ Rights. Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (a), if any holder of shares of Company Stock who is otherwise entitled to exercise appraisal or dissenters’ rights under the VSCA shall effectively withdraw or lose (through failure to perfect or otherwise) such appraisal or dissenters’ rights after the Effective Time, then, as of the occurrence of such event, (i) the Participation Fraction shall be recalculated as if such holder had not been a Dissenting Stockholder as of the Effective Time, (ii) the Purchase Price shall be recalculated taking into account such revised Participation Fraction, (iii) Merger Sub will pay such amounts to the Escrow Agent and Exchange Agent as may be necessary to cause the parties to be in the same position as they would have been had the recalculated Participation Fraction been the Participation Fraction at the Effective Time, and (iv) such holder’s shares shall automatically be converted into and represent only the right to receive a portion of the Purchase Price (as recalculated) pursuant to Section 3.02, without interest thereon, upon surrender of the certificate representing such shares and delivery to Surviving Corporation of a duly completed Letter of Transmittal.

(c) Notice, etc. The Company shall give Buyer (i) prompt notice of any written demands for the exercise of appraisal or dissenters’ rights in respect of any shares of Company Stock, withdrawals of such demands, and any other instruments served pursuant to the VSCA (including instruments concerning appraisal or dissenters’ rights) and received by the Company and (ii) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Representative, voluntarily make any payment with respect to any demands for the exercise of appraisal or dissenters’ rights in respect of any shares of Company Stock or offer to settle or settle any such demands.

SECTION 3.05 No Further Transfers; Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. The Purchase Price paid pursuant to the Merger upon the surrender for exchange of shares of Company Stock in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Company Stock, and upon and after the Effective Time, no transfer of the shares of Company Stock outstanding prior to the Effective Time shall be made on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation. If, after the Effective Time, certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Article III.

SECTION 3.06 Closing. Provided that all of the conditions to closing described in Sections 7.01 and 7.02 are satisfied or waived, as applicable, the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Xxxxx Xxxxxx PLC in Roanoke, Virginia, at 10:00 a.m. on the third Business Day after the satisfaction or (to the extent permitted by law) waiver of the conditions set forth in Sections 7.01 and 7.02, and in no event later than April 30, 2014, unless another date is agreed to in writing by Buyer, Merger Sub and the Company. The date on which the Closing occurs is referred to in this Agreement as the “Closing Date”.

SECTION 3.07

Adjustments to Purchase Price.

(a) Estimated Net Working Capital. Not less than three (3) days nor more than ten (10) days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Buyer a schedule (the “Preliminary Schedule”) setting forth, in reasonable detail and as of the date of the Preliminary Schedule, the Company’s estimate of Net Working Capital as of the Effective Time (the “Estimated Net Working Capital”).

(b) Preparation of Closing Balance Sheet. Buyer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts, as promptly as practicable following the Closing, but in no event later than sixty (60) days subsequent to the Effective Time, to deliver to the Representative a schedule (the “Final Schedule”) of Buyer’s calculation, which shall be derived from a balance sheet (the “Closing Balance Sheet”) prepared using the same accounting principles, procedures, policies and methods that were used to prepare the Preliminary Schedule, of the Net Working Capital. In the event the Buyer shall fail to deliver the Final Schedule within such sixty-day period, then the Preliminary Schedule shall be deemed to be the Final Schedule for all purposes hereunder. If the Representative disputes the correctness of the Final Schedule, the Closing Balance Sheet or the calculation of Net Working Capital, the Representative shall notify Buyer of his objections in writing within twenty (20) days after delivery of the Final Schedule and shall set forth in reasonable detail in such notice the reason for the Equity Holders’ objections. If the Representative fails to deliver such notice within such time period, the Equity Holders and the Representative shall be deemed to have accepted the Net Working Capital and the Closing Balance Sheet as set forth in the Final Schedule. If the Representative delivers such notice, Buyer and the Representative shall endeavor in good faith to resolve their dispute over the determination of the Net Working Capital or the Closing Balance Sheet, as the case may be, within twenty (20) days after receipt of such notice by Buyer. If they are unable to do so within such twenty (20)-day period, the dispute shall be submitted to KPMG LLP (the “Independent Accountant”) or another independent, nationally-recognized accounting firm in the United States as shall be mutually acceptable to Buyer and the Representative, who shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator, and who shall resolve the dispute within thirty days. The Independent

7/0000000.1

- 8 -

Accountant shall make a determination based solely on the terms of this Agreement and presentations by Buyer, on the one hand, and the Representative, on the other hand, as to (and only as to) each of the items in dispute as set forth in Representative’s objection notice, and shall be instructed that, in resolving such items in dispute, it must select a position with respect to the Net Working Capital that is either exactly the position of Buyer or exactly the position of the Representative or that is between such position of Buyer and such position of the Representative. The decision of the Independent Accountant as to the Net Working Capital shall be final and binding upon the parties. The expense of the Independent Accountant shall be borne by Buyer, on the one hand, and the Equity Holders, on the other hand, in proportion to the relative difference between such party’s position and the determination of the Independent Accountant. Buyer and the Representative shall cooperate with the other party in the determination of the Net Working Capital and the Closing Balance Sheet, including allowing the Representative and his representatives and advisors access after the Closing to the books and records of the Company and to the accounting and other representatives and advisors of the Company and its books and records for the purposes of making such determination.

(c) Purchase Price Adjustment Payment. Within three Business Days following final determination of the Net Working Capital and the Closing Balance Sheet, (i) if the Estimated Net Working Capital is greater than the Net Working Capital, then the Buyer and Representative shall cause the Escrow Agent to pay (by wire transfer of immediately available funds) to Buyer out of the Net Working Capital Escrow Amount an amount equal to the product of (A) the Participation Fraction times (B) the amount by which the Net Working Capital, determined as set forth in Section 3.07 (b) above, is less than the Estimated Net Working Capital, but in no event to exceed the amount of the Net Working Capital Escrow Amount (together with accretions thereon) and (ii) if the Estimated Net Working Capital is less than the Net Working Capital, determined as set forth in Section 3.07 (b) above, then the Buyer shall pay (by wire transfer of immediately available funds) to Representative, for distribution by the Representative to the Equity Holders in accordance with each such Equity Holder’s Respective Pro Rata Share (minus any amounts required to be withheld pursuant to applicable federal and state withholding laws) an amount equal to the product of (A) the Participation Fraction times (B) the amount by which the Net Working Capital, determined as set forth in Section 3.07 (b) above, is greater than the Estimated Net Working Capital.

SECTION 3.08 Representative. The “Representative” shall initially be XXXXXX X. XXXX. By voting in favor of the Merger and/or by executing and submitting a Transmittal Letter, each Equity Holder irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Representative as its, his or her true and lawful agent, attorney-in-fact and representative and authorizes and empowers him to fulfill the role of the Representative contemplated hereunder for purposes of this Agreement. The Representative shall have full power of substitution to act and decide to give consent and instruction, as applicable, in the name, place and stead of the Equity Holders and each of them in all matters in connection with this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. Without limitation, the Representative’s power shall include the following powers: give and receive notices and communications; the power to act for the Equity Holders and to authorize payment from the Escrow Amount with regard to the indemnification under Article VIII; to agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements of or compromise any claim on behalf of or against the Equity Holders; to authorize agreement to or dispute the adjustment to the Purchase Price; the power to do or refrain from doing all such further acts and things on behalf of the Equity Holders that the Representative deems necessary or appropriate in his good faith

discretion, and to execute all such documents as the Representative shall deem necessary or appropriate in connection therewith; and the power to receive service of process in connection with any claims hereunder. Actions taken by the Representative in accordance with this Section 3.08 shall be binding upon each Equity Holder, and Buyer and Merger Sub shall be entitled to rely upon such actions by the Representative. By execution of this Agreement, the Representative hereby accepts such appointment. In the event of the incapacity of the Representative, a successor representative will be appointed by the vote or the written consent of the Equity Holders holding a majority of the Company Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time. In the event such action is taken by majority written consent, a copy of such consent shall be mailed to all other Equity Holders within a reasonable time following such execution.

NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED HEREIN, OR IN ANY OTHER DOCUMENT, THE AGGREGATE MAXIMUM MONETARY LIABILITY OF THE EQUITY HOLDERS FOR INDEMNIFICATION OR ANY OTHER DAMAGES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT SHALL NOT EXCEED THE CEILING AMOUNT, WHICH SHALL BE PAYABLE SOLELY AND EXCLUSIVELY OUT OF THE ESCROW ACCOUNT, AS THE EXCLUSIVE SOURCE OF RECOVERY AGAINST ANY EQUITY HOLDER.

(e) Mitigation. The Parties shall take or cause to be taken reasonable steps and actions to mitigate all indemnifiable matters. Nothing in this Agreement shall, or shall be deemed to, relieve the Parties of any common law duty to mitigate any adverse consequences sustained by it.

SECTION 8.03 Third Party Claims. If any claim, assertion or proceeding by or in respect of a third party is made against an indemnified party or any event in respect of a third party occurs, and if the indemnified party intends to seek indemnity with respect thereto under this Article VIII or to apply any damage or liability arising therefrom to the U.S. Dollar amounts referred to in Section 8.04, the indemnified party shall promptly notify the indemnifying party of such claim in writing, provided that the failure by the indemnified party to give such notice shall not relieve the indemnifying party from its indemnification obligations hereunder, except if and to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced thereby. The indemnifying party shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice to elect to undertake, conduct and control, through counsel of its own choosing and at its expense, the settlement or defense thereof, and the indemnified party shall cooperate with it in connection therewith; provided, however, that (a) the indemnifying party shall permit the indemnified party to participate in such settlement or defense through counsel chosen by the indemnified party, provided that the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by the indemnified party, (b) to the extent such claim results in any liability that is covered by the indemnifying party’s obligations under this Article VIII, the indemnifying party shall promptly reimburse the indemnified party for the full amount of any liability resulting from such claim and all related and reasonable expenses (other than the fees and expenses of counsel as aforesaid) incurred by the indemnified party within the limits of this Article VIII and subject to the limitations referred to in Section 8.04, (c) the indemnified party shall not, without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party, settle or compromise any

- 46 -

claim or consent to the entry of any judgment and (d) nothing herein shall require any indemnified party to consent to the entry of any order, injunction or consent decree materially affecting its ability to conduct its business operations after the date thereof. So long as the indemnifying party is reasonably contesting any such claim in good faith, the indemnified party shall have the right to pay or settle any such claim; provided, however, that in such event it shall waive any right to indemnity therefor by the indemnifying party. If the indemnifying party does not notify the indemnified party within thirty (30) days after the receipt of the indemnified party’s written notice of a claim of indemnity hereunder that it elects to undertake the defense thereof, the indemnified party shall have the right to contest, settle or compromise the claim in the exercise of its reasonable judgment at the expense of the indemnifying party.

(f) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary but subject to Section 8.06 below, to the extent any Equity Holder shall become personally liable for any liabilities or damages under this Article VIII or otherwise under this Agreement, such Equity Holder’s cumulative obligations hereunder shall not exceed an amount equal to the product of the Ceiling Amount multiplied by such Equity Holder's Respective Pro Rata Share.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or provided

in contract or tort, for any consequential, incidental, indirect, special or punitive damages of such other person or entity, including, but not limited to any loss of future revenue, income or profits, or any diminution of value or multiples of earnings damages relating to the breach of alleged breach hereof, whether or not the possibility of such damages has been disclosed to the other party in advance or could reasonably have been foreseen by such other party.

Upon the termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.01(a), the Deposit shall be paid to the Company and neither party shall have any further obligations under this Agreement, except that the Company and the Buyer shall continue to be bound by the provisions of the Mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement dated December 28, 2012 between Buyer and the Company; provided, however, that (i) in the event that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 9.01(a) due to the failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 7.01(f), 7.01(h) or 7.02(f), or (ii) if this Agreement is terminated by Company pursuant to this Section 9.01(a) with Buyer ready, willing and able to close on or before April 30, 2014 and Company elects not to proceed to Closing, then the Deposit shall be paid to Buyer.

(b) Termination by the Company. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event of Buyer’s non-performance, default or breach of this Agreement, including the failure or refusal of Buyer to satisfy any of the conditions precedent to the obligations of the Company set forth in Section 7.02 above, or in the event that the condition set forth in Section

7/3393869.1

- 48 -

7.02(f) is not met for any reason, then the Company shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, in which event the Deposit shall be paid to the Company and neither party shall have any further obligations under this Agreement, except that the Company and the Buyer shall continue to be bound by the provisions of the Mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement dated December 28, 2012 between Buyer and the Company; provided, however, that in the event that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 9.01(b) due to the failure to satisfy the condition set forth in Section 7.02(f), then the Deposit shall be paid to Buyer.

(c) Termination by Buyer. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event the closing of the transactions contemplated herein has not occurred on or before April 30, 2014, as a result of the Company’s or Equity Holders’ default or breach of this Agreement or the failure or refusal of the Company or Equity Holders to satisfy any of the conditions precedent to the obligations of Buyer set forth in Section 7.01 above, Buyer may, at its option and as its sole and exclusive remedy, terminate this Agreement, in which event the Deposit shall be paid to the Company and neither party shall have any further obligations hereunder, except that the Company and the Buyer shall continue to be bound by the provisions of the Mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement dated December 28, 2012 between Buyer and the Company; provided, however, that in the event that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 9.01(c) due to the failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 7.01(f) or 7.01(h), then the Deposit shall be paid to Buyer.

(d) Deposit. Buyer and the Company agree that based upon the circumstances now

existing, known and unknown, it would be impractical or extremely difficult to establish the Company’s costs, expenses and damages by reason of the failure of the parties to close the transactions contemplated hereby and Buyer’s non-performance, default or breach of this Agreement prior to Closing. Accordingly, Buyer and the Company agree that it would be reasonable in the event of such failure to close or non-performance, default or breach by Buyer to award the Company the amount of the Deposit. The Company and Buyer acknowledge and agree that the foregoing amount has been offered as an inducement to the Company’s execution of this Agreement, is reasonable as liquidated damages and shall be the Company’s sole and exclusive remedy in lieu of any other relief, right or remedy, at law or in equity, to which the Company might otherwise be entitled by reason of such failure to close or non-performance, default or breach by Buyer.

This Agreement, its Exhibits and Schedules, the Pre-Closing Transactions and the Mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement dated December 28, 2012 between Buyer and the Company constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral and written, among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. No representation, warranty, promise, inducement or statement of intention has been made by any party hereto which is not embodied in this Agreement, and no party shall be bound by, or be liable for, any alleged representation, warranty, promise, inducement or statement of intention not embodied herein or therein.

SECTION 10.06 Schedules. The inclusion of any matter in the Disclosure Schedule in connection with any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement that is qualified as to materiality or material adverse effect is not an admission that such matter is material, relates to or is a material contract, or would result in a Material Adverse Effect. In addition, the inclusion of any matter in connection with any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement that is qualified by a monetary threshold is not an admission that such matter does or does not meet such monetary threshold. No disclosure in the Disclosure Schedule relating to any possible breach or violation of any agreement, law or regulation shall be construed as an admission or indication that any such breach or violation exists or has actually occurred. Section headings and numbers used in the Disclosure Schedule refer to the corresponding sections of this Agreement, and these headings and numbers are for convenience only and are not to be used to interpret any provision of this Agreement or the Disclosure Schedule or expand the scope of information required to be disclosed in the Disclosure Schedule. The Disclosure Schedule does not purport to disclose any agreements, contracts or instruments that may be entered into pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Any information disclosed in any section of the Disclosure Schedule with respect to any section or subsection of this Agreement shall be deemed disclosed for, and as a qualifier of, all other sections and/or subsections of this Agreement.

The Disclosure Schedule shall be considered a part hereof as if set forth herein in full. Any other provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding, from the date hereof until the Closing Date, (i) the Company may amend and update the Disclosure Schedule, subject to the Buyer's approval rights described below, and (ii) any Exhibits provided for herein and not delivered at the time of execution of this Agreement or which are incomplete at the time of execution of this Agreement shall be delivered or completed or updated prior to the Closing, subject to the reasonable approval of the parties hereto. If the Buyer, in the exercise of its reasonable judgment, determines that it should not consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement because of any information that is added to, or deleted from, the Disclosure Schedule by the Company between the date hereof and the Closing Date and which has a Material Adverse Effect on the business of the Company, then the Buyer may terminate this Agreement on or before the Closing by giving written notice thereof to the other parties, whereupon the parties shall promptly meet to discuss the matter and make reasonable efforts to effect withdrawal of the notice. Similarly, if a party, in the exercise of its reasonable judgment, determines that it should not consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement because of any information that is added to or deleted from an Exhibit by another party, including the creation of an Exhibit not attached at the time of execution of this Agreement and which has a Material Adverse Effect on the transaction, then such party may terminate this Agreement on or before the Closing by giving written notice thereof to the other parties,

whereupon the parties shall promptly meet to discuss the matter and make reasonable efforts to effect withdrawal of the notice.

SECTION 10.07 Amendment; Extension and Waiver. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of all the parties. Any agreement on the part of any party to any waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party.

SECTION 10.08 Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, without regard to conflict of law provisions that would defer to the laws of another jurisdiction. The rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be governed by and determined in accordance with such laws. The parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally consent to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts serving Roanoke County, Virginia, for any actions, suits or proceedings arising out of or relating to this agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. The parties further hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waive any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in the state and federal courts serving Roanoke County, Virginia, and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waive and agree not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

SECTION 10.09 Binding Effect; Benefits. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties and their respective successors and assigns. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer on any Person other than the parties or their respective successors and assigns, any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement.

SECTION 10.10 Assignability. Neither this Agreement nor any of the parties’ rights hereunder shall be assignable by any party without the prior written consent of the other parties.

SECTION 10.11 Public Announcements. Any public announcement or similar publicity with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby will be issued, if at all, at such time and in such manner as mutually determined by the Company and the Buyer.

SECTION 10.12 Invalid Provisions. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under any present or future law, rule or regulation, such provision shall be fully severable and this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision has never comprised a part hereof. The remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance here from. Furthermore, in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision, there shall be added automatically as a part of this Agreement a legal, valid and enforceable provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible.
