(c) Schedule 1.1(c). Opposite each Partner’s name on Schedule 1.1(c) is the type and amount of Equity held by such Partner, the payment to be made to each such Partner at the Closing after giving effect to the adjustments and provisions of Sections 1.3, 1.4 and 1.5 below and the amount of each payment to be held in escrow on such Partner’s behalf.

1.2 Purchase Price. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including any adjustments required by Sections 1.3, 1.4 and 1.5 below, Buyer will pay to the Partners at the times and in the manner specified in Sections 1.3, 1.4 and 1.5 below, an aggregate purchase price of $53,000,000 plus any Earnout Amount plus the Final Working Capital Amount (the “Purchase Price”).

1.3 Closing Payments.

(a) Closing Payment to Partners. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including Section 1.5), at the Closing, Buyer shall pay to each Partner its Consideration Percentage of:

(i) $53,000,000 of the Purchase Price;

MINUS

(ii) the outstanding principal balance of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, Indebtedness outstanding on the Closing Date (including any prepayment and similar charges associated with repayment of the Indebtedness prior to maturity (calculated as of the Closing Date));

MINUS

(iii) the amount (the “Closing Date Working Capital Offset”), if any, by which the Closing Date Net Working Capital is less than the Working Capital Threshold;

by wire transfer, in cash, in accordance with the wire transfer instructions set forth on Schedule 1.3 or as otherwise directed by the Partner Representative (the “Closing Payment”). Company shall deliver to Buyer a calculation of Closing Date Net Working Capital and the Working Capital Threshold certified as to accuracy by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer.

(b) Final Working Capital Amount. As soon as reasonably practicable after the date that is 120 days after the Closing (the “Cut-Off Date”), the Final Working Capital Amount shall be determined in the manner set forth in the succeeding sections:

(i) Buyer shall prepare and deliver to the Partner Representative as soon as reasonably practicable after the Cut-Off Date any proposed revisions to the Closing Balance Sheet and any proposed revisions to the Closing Date Net Working Capital, including adjustments to Accounts Receivable reflected on the Closing Balance Sheet and Collected AR as of the Cut-Off Date (the “Final Working Capital Amount”). Buyer’s revised Closing Balance Sheet shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP (it being understood and agreed that the amount of any proposed revision shall be disregarded for purposes of calculating the Final Working Capital Amount to the extent such proposed revision shall result from the application of any accounting policy (A) required by Regulation S-X or (B) that, as between Buyer and the Company, is unique to Buyer, unless the Company’s practices failed to conform to GAAP with respect to the accounting treatment of the item(s) under review, in which case Buyer shall be entitled to make such proposed revision). Buyer shall make available to the Partner Representative and its accountants during regular business hours all pertinent information reasonably requested by the Partner Representative in order to confirm the amounts set forth in the revised Closing Balance Sheet and Final Working Capital Amount.

-2-

(ii) Within thirty (30) days after the Buyer’s proposed revisions are delivered to the Partner Representative pursuant to subsection (i) above, the Partner Representative shall complete its examination thereof and shall deliver to Buyer either (A) a written acknowledgement accepting the Buyer’s revisions or (B) a written report setting forth in reasonable detail any proposed adjustments to the Buyer’s revisions (the “Adjustment Report”). A failure by the Partner Representative to deliver the Adjustment Report to Buyer within such thirty (30) day period shall be deemed to constitute the Partner Representative’s acceptance of Buyer’s calculation of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Final Working Capital Amount.

(iii) During a period of thirty (30) days following the receipt by Buyer of the Adjustment Report, the Partner Representative and Buyer shall attempt to resolve any differences they may have with respect to the matters set forth in the Adjustment Report. In the event the Buyer and the Partner Representative fail to agree on the Closing Balance Sheet and the Final Working Capital Amount within such thirty (30) day period, then the Partner Representative and Buyer mutually agree that the Seattle, Washington office of a firm of nationally recognized independent auditors (or if any such firm is unwilling or unable to serve, another national accounting firm mutually agreed upon by the Partner Representative and Buyer (the “Independent Auditors”), acting as an expert and not as an arbitrator, shall make the final determination with respect to the correctness of the proposed adjustments in the Adjustment Report in light of the terms and provisions of this Agreement. The parties shall use reasonable efforts to cause the Independent Auditors to render their decision as soon as practicable within sixty (60) days after the submission to the Independent Auditors of the proposed adjustments, including by promptly complying with all reasonable requests by the Independent Auditors for information, books, records and similar items. The Independent Auditors shall make a determination as to each of the items in dispute (and each item affected thereby), which determination shall be in writing and furnished to the Partner Representative and Buyer as promptly as practicable after the items in dispute have been referred to the Independent Auditors (but in any event within sixty (60) days thereafter). The decision of the Independent Auditors shall be final and binding on the Buyer and the Partner Representative, and may be used in a court of law by either the Buyer or the Partner Representative for the purpose of enforcing such decision. The costs and expenses of the Independent Auditors pursuant to this section shall be borne by the Buyer and the Partner Representative pro rata in an amount inversely proportional to the dollar value of the disputed items determined in each party’s favor. By way of example, if the Buyer had taken the position that the Final Working Capital Amount was $100, the Partner Representative had taken the position that the Final Working Capital Amount was $200, and the Independent Auditors determine the Final Working Capital Amount to be $130, then the Buyer would pay 30% of the Independent Auditors’ fees and expenses and the Partner Representative, on behalf of the Partners, would pay 70% of the Independent Auditors’ fees and expenses.

(iv) If, after determination of the Final Working Capital Amount pursuant to the foregoing, the Final Working Capital Amount exceeds the Working Capital Threshold, the Buyer shall pay to each Partner its Consideration Percentage of such excess plus the amount of the Closing Date Working Capital Offset, if any, made by Buyer pursuant to Section 1.3(a)(iii). If, after determination of the Final Working Capital Amount pursuant to the foregoing, the Final Working Capital Amount is less than the Working Capital Threshold (the “Working Capital Shortfall”), Buyer shall be entitled to recover from the Escrow Fund an amount equal to such Working Capital Shortfall but only to the extent Buyer shall not have recovered such Working Capital Shortfall pursuant to any Closing Date Working Capital Offset made pursuant to Section 1.3(a)(iii).

(c) Accounts Receivable. During the period between Closing and the Cut-Off Date, Buyer will use, and will cause the Company to use, commercially reasonable efforts to collect Accounts Receivable in the Ordinary Course of Business and will consult with the Partner Representative regarding such efforts and, to the extent Buyer or Company collect such Accounts Receivable, credit such Accounts Receivable to the oldest outstanding amount due from the party obligated thereon. On the 60^th and 90^th day after the Closing Date, the Buyer agrees to provide the Partner Representative a schedule of Accounts Receivable activity since the Closing Date. If

-3-

any Accounts Receivable reflected on the Closing Balance Sheet have not become Collected AR by the Cut-Off Date and accordingly are not included in the computation of the Final Working Capital Amount, neither the Company nor the Buyer will have any further obligation to any of the Partners or the Partner Representative with respect thereto.

1.4 Earnout.

(a) Earnout Payment. Following the Closing, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including Section 1.4(e)), Buyer shall pay to each Partner its Consideration Percentage of the Earnout Amount (the “Earnout Payment”), by wire transfer, in cash, in accordance with the wire transfer instructions set forth on Schedule 1.3, within forty-five (45) days after the one-year anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Earnout Payment Date”).

(b) No Conditions to Payment. The parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the Earnout Amount is a material factor in determining the valuation of the Company, (ii) the right to the Earnout Payment is material to the Partners’ decision to enter into this Agreement and (iii) payment of the Earnout Amount is not contingent on the employment of either of GL, MB or any Series B Holder with Buyer or any of Buyer’s Affiliates on the Earnout Payment Date.

(c) Buyer’s Obligations With Respect to Earnout. The Partners agree that (i) following the Closing Date, the Buyer shall have the right and power to control all aspects of the business and operations of the Company (including decisions regarding the features, functions and characteristics of its products and services, the technology on which its products and services are delivered, whether and when to launch its products and services, and how to price, market and distribute its products and services), and nothing in this Agreement shall require Buyer to take any action that would be, or shall otherwise be interpreted in a manner that is, inconsistent with such right and power and (ii) nothing herein shall constitute a guarantee of employment of any Key Personnel or any other employee, and Buyer may terminate any Key Personnel or other employee, with or without cause, at any time and such termination shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Buyer covenants that if, prior to the Earnout Payment Date, it should sell or otherwise dispose of the business historically conducted by the Company, it will cause the purchaser of such business to assume Buyer’s obligation to make the Earnout Payment due hereunder.

(d) Tax Treatment. The Earnout Payment is intended to be treated for all Tax purposes as additional consideration for the purchase of the Equity by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement (subject to the requirement to treat a portion as imputed interest). Each of the Partners acknowledges that it is relying solely on its own tax advisors in connection with the tax treatment and tax consequences of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(e) No Transfer or Assignment. No Partner may sell, exchange, transfer or otherwise dispose of its right to receive the Earnout Payment, if any, or any portion thereof, except for transfers for estate planning purposes provided that Buyer is provided with written notice prior to any such transfer. Any transfer in violation of this Section 1.4(e) shall be null and void and need not be recognized by Buyer.

(f) No Other Representations, Warranties or Commitments. Each Partner expressly acknowledges and agrees that this Section 1.4 contains the entire agreement with respect to Buyer’s obligations in connection with the Earnout, and that notwithstanding anything else (including any prior or contemporaneous discussions) to the contrary, for purposes of this Agreement, no party makes or is relying on any, representations, warranties or covenants with respect to support provided to achieve, or the feasibility of achieving, the Earnout.

1.5 Escrow. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, $5,300,000 of the Purchase Price will not be paid at the Closing to the Partners, but instead will be paid over to the Escrow Agent to be held and disbursed upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Escrow Agreement. This amount shall be referred to as the “Escrow Amount,” and the Escrow Amount, together with any accrued interest thereon, will constitute the “Escrow Fund.” Payments from the Escrow Fund will be made in accordance with Section 8.2 hereof.

The “Remaining Amount” as of any date shall mean the amount equal to (A) the remainder of the Escrow Fund (as the same may be reduced from time to time pursuant to this Agreement) minus (B) the sum of (1) the Initial Distribution Amount, (2) the Second Distribution Amount (if theretofore paid) and (3) the aggregate amount transferred and delivered by the Escrow Agent to the Partners prior to such date pursuant to this Section 8.2.

(g) Dispute Resolution. In the event that the Partner Representative disputes any Claim or the Buyer’s determination of the Projected Indemnity Amount, the Partner Representative shall notify Buyer and the Escrow Agent in writing within twenty (20) days after receipt of notice of a Claim or the determination of such Projected Indemnity Amount of such dispute and the Partner Representative and Buyer shall attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute within thirty (30) days of such notification by the Partner Representative to Buyer. If the Partner Representative and the Buyer should so agree, a written notice setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by the Partner Representative and Buyer and delivered to the Escrow Agent. If the Partner Representative does not notify Buyer and the Escrow Agent in writing within the twenty (20) day period after delivery by the Buyer of the notice of Claim, such failure to so object shall be an irrevocable acknowledgment by the Partner Representative that the Buyer Indemnified Parties are entitled to the full amount of the claim for Damages set forth in such notice and the Escrow Agent is authorized to pay to Buyer the full amount of such claim out of the Escrow Fund to payment of such Damages. If such dispute is not so resolved within such 30-day period, then the matter shall be resolved in accordance with the provisions of the Escrow Agreement.

8.3 Indemnification Basket. In seeking indemnification for Damages under this ARTICLE VIII, the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall make no Claim against the Escrow Fund for Damages unless and until the cumulative aggregate of such Claims exceeds $150,000 (the “Basket Amount”), after which the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to seek indemnification for all such Claims, provided, however, that Claims in respect of any breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 2.15 and Section 4.5, the obligations of the Partners under Section 1.8 and the obligations of DWHP under Section 7.6 shall not be subject to the Basket Amount limitation, and such Claims shall not count toward satisfaction of the Basket Amount for purposes of other Claims for recovery of Damages. Buyer’s sole remedy in respect of Claims for indemnification, except as otherwise set forth herein, shall be limited to the Escrow Fund.

-39-

8.4 Procedures for Indemnification for Third Party Claims. In the event Buyer becomes aware of a third-party claim which Buyer reasonably believes may result in a demand for recovery of Damages, Buyer shall notify the Partner Representative and the Escrow Agent of such claim, and the Partner Representative shall be entitled on behalf of the Partners, at their expense, to participate in, but not to determine or conduct, the defense of such claim. Buyer shall have the right in its sole discretion to conduct the defense of and settle any such claim; provided, however, that except with the consent of the Partner Representative, no settlement of any such claim with third-party claimants shall be determinative of the amount of Damages relating to such matter. In the event that the Partner Representative has consented to any such settlement, the Partners shall have no power or authority to object under any provision of this ARTICLE VIII to the amount of any claim by Buyer with respect to such settlement.

8.5 Partner Representative.

(a) Each of the Partners hereby appoints Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxxxx, as its agent and attorney-in-fact, as the Partner Representative for and on behalf of the Partners, to give and receive notices and communications, to authorize the payment of Damages from the Escrow Fund, to object to any claim set forth in an Officers Certificate, to agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and comply with orders of courts with respect to such claims, and to take all other actions that are either (i) necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Partner Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing or (ii) specifically mandated by the terms of this Agreement. Such agency may be changed by the Partners from time to time upon not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Partner Representative and the Company. Upon any change in the Partner Representative, such successor Partner Representative shall promptly provide the Buyer with a signature specimen. No bond shall be required of the Partner Representative, and the Partner Representative shall not receive compensation for its services. Notices or communications to or from the Partner Representative shall constitute notice to or from the Partners.

(b) The Partner Representative shall not be liable for any act done or omitted hereunder as the Partner Representative while acting in good faith and in the exercise of reasonable judgment. The Partners shall indemnify the Partner Representative and hold the Partner Representative harmless against any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on the part of the Partner Representative and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the Partner Representative’s duties hereunder, including the reasonable fees and expenses of any legal counsel retained by the Partner Representative.

(c) A decision, act, consent or instruction of the Partner Representative pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute a decision of the Partners and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Partners, and Buyer Indemnified Parties may rely upon any such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Partner Representative as being the decision, act, consent or instruction of the Partners. In addition, the Partner Representative may agree to the amendment, extension or waiver of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.6 hereof. The Buyer Indemnified Parties are hereby relieved from any liability to any Person for any acts done by them in accordance with such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Partner Representative.

8.6 Limitation of Liability. In no event shall the maximum liability of the Company Indemnifying Parties under this ARTICLE VIII (exclusive of any liability for indemnification for fraud or for breaches or inaccuracies of any of the representations and warranties in Section 4.5) exceed, in the aggregate, the balance of the Escrow Fund as of the date of such Claim. Except for Claims made with respect to Damages related to a breach or inaccuracy of any of the representations and warranties in Section 4.5 or in the case of any liability for fraud, the Escrow Fund represents the sole source of recovery of any claims made by Buyer Indemnified Parties pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII.

(a) Unless the context shall otherwise require, any pronoun herein or in another Transaction Agreement shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine, and neuter forms, and words using the singular or plural number also shall include the plural or singular number, respectively. The words “include,” “includes” and “including” herein or in another Transaction Agreement shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation” and the word “or” shall include the meaning “either or both.” All references herein or in another Transaction Agreement to sections, exhibits, and schedules shall be deemed to be references to sections of, and exhibits and schedules to, the agreement in which such references are made unless the context shall otherwise require. The table of contents and the headings of the sections herein and in the other Transaction Agreements are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be a part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement or such other Transaction Agreement, as the case may be. Unless the context shall otherwise require, any reference herein or in another Transaction Agreement to any agreement or other instrument or statute or regulation is to such agreement, instrument, statute or regulation as amended and supplemented from time to time (and, in the case of a statute or regulation, to any successor provision).

(b) The parties acknowledge that each party has participated in the drafting of this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements, and that any rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be applied in the construction or interpretation of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Agreements.

-42-

(c) Any reference in a Transaction Agreement to a “day” or a number of “days” (without the explicit qualification of “business”) shall be interpreted as a reference to a calendar day or number of calendar days. If any action or notice is to be taken or given on or by a particular calendar day, and such calendar day is not a Business Day, then such action or notice shall be deferred until, or may be taken or given on, the next Business Day.

(d) The phrases “the date of this Agreement”, “the date hereof”, and terms of similar import, unless the context otherwise requires, shall be deemed to refer to the Execution Date.

10.3 Specific Performance. Each party agrees that irreparable harm, for which there may be no adequate remedy at law and for which the ascertainment of Damages would be difficult, would occur in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached. Each party accordingly agrees that the other parties shall be entitled to specifically enforce this Agreement and to obtain an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof or thereof, in each instance without being required to post bond or other security and in addition to, and without having to prove the adequacy of, other remedies at law.

10.4 Counterparts; Delivery. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts and delivered by facsimile or PDF, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement, shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart, and upon such delivery any facsimile or PDF signature will be deemed to have the same effect as if the original signature had been delivered to the other party.

10.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the other Transaction Agreements, and the documents and instruments and other agreements specifically referred to herein or delivered pursuant hereto, including the exhibits and the schedules hereto and thereto, (a) constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and (b) supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

10.6 Amendment; Waiver; Requirement of Writing. This Agreement and each of the other Transaction Agreements cannot be amended or changed nor any performance, term, or condition waived in whole or in part except by a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of the amendment, change or waiver is sought. Any term or condition of this Agreement and each of the other Transaction Agreements may be waived at any time by the party hereto entitled to the benefit thereof, and any such term or condition may be modified at any time by an agreement in writing executed by each of the parties hereto entitled to the benefit thereof. No delay or failure on the part of any party in exercising any rights hereunder, and no partial or single exercise thereof, will constitute a waiver of such rights or of any other rights hereunder.

10.7 [Intentionally Reserved].

10.8 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except with respect to the consideration to be provided hereunder nothing in this Agreement or the other Transaction Agreements will be construed as giving any person, other than the parties and their successors and permitted assigns, any right, remedy, or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or the other Transaction Agreements or any provision hereof or thereof.

10.9 Disclaimer of Agency. Except for any provisions herein or in the Transaction Agreements expressly authorizing one party to act for another, neither this Agreement nor any Transaction Agreement shall constitute any party as a legal representative or agent of the other party, nor shall a party have the right or authority to assume, create, or incur any Liability of any kind, expressed or implied, against or in the name or on behalf of the other party or any of its Affiliates.

10.10 Relationship of the Parties. Nothing contained in this Agreement or the Transaction Agreements is intended to, or shall be deemed to, create a partnership or joint venture relationship among the parties hereto or thereto or any of their Affiliates for any purpose, including tax purposes.

-43-

10.11 Assignment. Unless otherwise set forth in another Transaction Agreement (with respect to such agreement only), this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements and the rights and obligations of each party hereunder or thereunder shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

10.12 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof, becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will continue 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 void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

10.13 Remedies Cumulative. 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.
