Exhibit 2.4
AMENDMENT TO STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT
THIS AMENDMENT TO STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”) is effective as of
January 30, 2007, by and among (i) SM&A, a Delaware corporation (“Buyer”), (ii) Project
Planning, Incorporated, a Massachusetts corporation (the “Company”), and (iii) Xxxxxxx Xxxx
(the “Shareholder”). Buyer, the Company, and the Shareholder are sometimes individually
referred to as a “Party,” and collectively as the “Parties.” All initially capitalized terms used
but not defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Stock Purchase
Agreement (as defined below).
RECITALS
WHEREAS, on January 30, 2007, the Parties entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement, pursuant to
which Buyer acquired from the Shareholder all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the
Company (the “Shares”), for total consideration valued at approximately $6.7 million,
including $4.5 million in cash (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”);
WHEREAS, Section 1.7 of the Stock Purchase Agreement, as originally executed, states that the
Shareholder was entitled to receive additional consideration (“Earn-Out Consideration”) for
the Shares based on: (i) the employment of Xxxxxxx Xxxx (“Xxxx”) by the Company or the
Buyer and (ii) the Annual Revenue of the Buyer during each of the three consecutive twelve-month
periods following the Closing Date;
WHEREAS, it was the intent and agreement of the Parties at the time that the Stock Purchase
Agreement was entered into that the Earn-Out Consideration be based solely upon Annual Revenue and
not on the employment of Xxxx;
WHEREAS, the parties desire to amend the Stock Purchase Agreement in order to correct certain
provisions therein to accurately reflect their intent and agreement with respect to the payment of
the Earn-Out Consideration;
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the above recitals, and of the mutual covenants contained
herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby
acknowledged by the parties hereto, the parties agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
1. Amendments to the Stock Purchase Agreement.
(a) Section 1.7(c) (including the subsections thereof) shall be deleted in its entirety and
replaced with the phrase “[Intentionally deleted.]”
(b) The introductory clause of Section 1.7(d) shall be amended in its entirety to read as
follows: “For purposes of calculating the Earn-Out Consideration, the following terms shall have
the following meanings:”
2. No Other Provisions Amended. All other provisions of the Stock Purchase Agreement
not specifically amended by this Amendment shall remain in full force and effect.
3. Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Amendment is
held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of
the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Amendment shall remain in full force and
effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated.
4. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same
agreement.
5. Governing Law. This Amendment shall be deemed to be made in and in all respects
shall be interpreted, construed and governed by and in accordance with the laws of the State of
Delaware without regard to the conflict of law principles thereof.
