reasonably informed as to the status of such reported events.
3.3 Preservation of Relationships. Seller will use all reasonable
efforts to assist Buyer in retaining the services of any key Staff
members that Buyer indicates it may wish to employ or engage, and to
preserve for Buyer its good relations with, customers, suppliers, and
others having business relationships with it in connection with the
Purchased Business; provided, however, that nothing herein shall
require Buyer to hire any Staff or to conduct or continue any business
with any customer, supplier, or third party.
3.4 Access to Facilities and Records. Seller will afford Buyer and
its representatives with full access to Company's books, records,
assets and employees in order for Buyer to complete its due diligence
with respect to the Purchased Business and the transaction contemplated
hereby, with reasonable access during normal business hours on
reasonable notice to the physical locations at which Seller conducts
12
the Business in order to inspect and review Company's business records
and accounts and any Assets located at such facilities. Seller will
furnish documents and all such other information concerning the
Business as Buyer may reasonably request; provided, however, that any
investigation or inquiry made by Buyer, or knowledge obtained by Buyer,
shall not in any way limit or otherwise affect the representations and
warranties contained in this Agreement or their survival of the
Closing.
3.5 Exclusive Dealing. For so long as this Agreement shall continue
in effect, but in no case no longer than 60 days after execution of
this Agreement, unless extended in writing by both Buyer and Seller,
neither Company nor any of their officers, directors, managers, owners,
or representatives will directly or indirectly offer, or solicit or
entertain offers for, the purchase, sale or disposition of, or engage
in any substantive discussions or enter into any agreement or
understanding with respect to, or furnish information to any other
party with regard to, the Purchased Business or Assets or any business
arrangement, transaction, or disposition relating thereto, in whole or
in part.
3.6 Financial Statements. Company shall cause to be delivered to
Buyer the following prepared in accordance with GAAP:

the fiscal years ended December 2008 and December 2009, and an audit
report of the Company's Independent Registered Accounting Firm ("IRAF")
thereon;
b) reviewed interim financial statements as of and for the period
ending June 2010, and review report of the IRAF thereon.
Seller and Company acknowledge and agree that Buyer may be required to
include financial statements of Seller or combined financial statements
of the Purchased Business in reports that Buyer is required to file
pursuant to applicable securities laws. With the exception of 3.06(a)
& 3.06(b), such reporting will be at Buyer's sole cost and expense.
3.7 Termination.
a) This Agreement may be terminated by either the Buyer or the
Seller at any time prior to Closing if that party, in its good faith
judgment, determines that there is any inaccuracy or incompleteness in
any representation or breach of any warranty contained herein, or any
failure of the offending party to perform or satisfy, or cause to be
performed or satisfied, any of the terms or conditions of this
Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or any error, misstatement
or omission with regard to any of the Exhibits, information or other
documents referred to herein, or if Buyer, in its sole judgment, is not
satisfied with the contents of any of the Exhibits, information or
documents, or with the results of its investigation of the Purchased
Business and Assets.
b) This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the
Closing: (a) by mutual written consent of Buyer and Seller; or (b) by
either Buyer or Seller, if the Closing shall not have occurred on or
prior to 75 days from the signing of this Agreement (or such later date
as shall have been consented to by all parties hereto), unless failure
of such occurrence shall be due to the failure of the party seeking to
terminate this Agreement to perform or observe any agreements and
conditions to be performed or observed by such party or to use its
reasonable efforts to obtain any third party consents or actions
required as a condition to Closing.
13
c) If this Agreement has not been terminated and the Closing shall
not have taken place on or prior to 90 days after this agreement has
been signed, this Agreement shall automatically terminate.
d) Should Purchaser decide to terminate this agreement due to either
(i) a failure to secure adequate financing based on reasonable terms,
(ii) a financial or operational concern raised during due diligence
that is immaterial to the future performance of the Company and / or
the post-transaction combined entity based on the reasonable judgment
of Buyer, or
(iii) any other reason not in good faith compliance with the spirit of
this Letter of Intent, Buyer will reimburse the Seller upon termination
an amount equal to one-half (1/2) of expenses incurred in obtaining the
2008 and 2009 audits and reviewed six (6) months 2010 financial
statements, subject to a maximum amount of ten thousand dollars
($10,000). Such reimbursement must be made to Seller within thirty
(30) days of Buyer's written termination of this Agreement. No such
reimbursement is required if the Seller decides not to move forward and
close upon the existing terms of this Agreement.
4. POST CLOSING OBLIGATIONS
4.1 Names. As soon as practicable following the Closing Date, Seller
will assist Buyer in obtaining the full and exclusive right to use such
name(s) in connection with the Purchased Business.
4.2 Further Assurances. Following the Closing Date, Sellers shall,
for no further consideration, perform all such other actions and
execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such
further assignments, transfers, instruments, certificates and other
documents as Buyer or its counsel may reasonably request to vest in
Buyer full and complete title to and protect Buyer's rights, title and
interest in and to the Purchased Business and the Assets and to affirm
and protect Buyer's rights and interests under this Agreement. Buyer
and the right to use the Purchased Business and Assets hereby agreed to
be conveyed by Seller to Buyer. In the event that Seller receives any
payments, notices, or communications after the Closing Date from any
customers, suppliers or ________ relating to the Purchased Business,
such items shall be delivered promptly to Buyer in the same form
received.
4.3 The cost of the 2008 and 2009 audit, as well as the 2010
review, shall be the responsibility of the Company; however, all such
costs, up to a maximum of twenty thousand dollars ($20,000) shall be
reimbursed by Buyer at the Closing Date.
4.4 Survival of Representations, Warranties, and Agreements. The
representations, warranties, and agreements contained in this Agreement
and the other Transaction Documents shall expire on the first
anniversary of the Closing Date except that (i) Seller's obligation to
pay, perform and discharge all Company Liabilities pursuant to Section
1.02 shall survive indefinitely; (ii) the representations and
warranties contained in Article 2 and the Exhibits referenced therein
shall survive the Closing and shall remain in full force and effect
until expiration of the statute of limitations period applicable to the
subject matter thereof (or, if a claim has been asserted prior to such
expiration, until after the date of its final resolution), and (iii) if
a claim or notice is given under Section 4.06 (Indemnification) with
respect to any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement prior to
14
the applicable expiration date, such representation, warranty, covenant
or agreement shall continue indefinitely until the applicable claim is
finally resolved.
4.5 Indemnification.
a) Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer and its
owners, officers, managers, employees, attorneys, agents, affiliates,
successors and assigns ("Buyer Parties") from and against all claims,
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, liabilities, costs and
expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements,
interest, penalties, court costs, and all costs and expenses reasonably
incurred in investigating, preparing, defending against or prosecuting
any litigation, claim, action, suit, proceeding or demand ("Losses") of
any kind or character arising out of or relating or attributable to:
i) any inaccuracy, misrepresentation, breach, or failure to fulfill
any agreement, representation or warranty on the part of Company or
Seller pursuant to this Agreement (including the Exhibits hereto) or
any of the other Transaction Documents;
ii) the operation of the Purchased Business, the ownership, use,
possession or operation of the Assets, or any other action, omission or
transaction of Seller, Company, or their owners, officers, managers,
employees, attorneys, agents, affiliates, predecessors, successors and
assigns ("Company Parties"), or any of them, prior to the Closing Date,
including without limitation any Company Liabilities, whether such
claims are asserted by one of the Buyer Parties or by third persons;
iii) reliance by Buyer on any books or records of Company, Seller, or
on any information furnished to Buyer by or on behalf of any of the
Company Parties pursuant to this Agreement or any of the other
Transaction Documents;
iv) any agreements, contracts, negotiations or other dealings by any
of the Company Parties with any third party concerning the sale or
transfer of any portion of the Purchased Business or Assets; or
v) any claim, demand or allegation by any third party relating to
any of the foregoing.
Unless the aggregate of all Losses relating hereto for which Sellers
would, but for this proviso, be liable exceeds on a cumulative basis an
amount equal to $50,000, at which time Sellers shall be fully liable
for the full amount of all such Losses from and including the first
dollar of any Losses. Further, Sellers' aggregate liability under this
Agreement shall never exceed the Cash Consideration of the Purchase
Price as defined in 1.05(a) received to date by Seller; however nothing
in this limiting sentence shall restrict any of Buyer's rights to
maintain or recover any Loss amounts in connection with any action or
claim based upon fraudulent misrepresentation or deceit made in this
Agreement.
a) If any of the Buyer Parties (the "Indemnitee"), has a claim or
potential claim or receives notice of any claim or potential claim or
the commencement of any action or proceeding that could give rise to an
indemnification claim under this Section, Buyer shall promptly give
Seller notice thereof describing the claim in reasonable detail and
accompanied by supporting documentation, if any. Seller shall respond
to each such claim within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice,
unless the claim (a) relates to a suit, claim or proceeding filed by a
third party, in which case Seller shall respond no later than ten (10)
days prior to the date a responsive pleading or filing is due (even if
such response date is earlier than the expiration date of the
aforementioned 30-day period), or (b) requires an immediate response,
as in the case of a cease and desist demand by a third party or a
notice to show cause, in which case Seller shall respond in a prompt,
15
timely manner. If Seller's response is not timely made, the Indemnitee
may respond to such third party claim as it sees fit and seek
indemnification thereafter pursuant to the terms hereof. If Seller
elect to assume the defense of such claim or potential claim, the
Indemnitee shall have the right to be represented by counsel,
accountants and other advisors, at its own expense, and shall be kept
reasonably informed as to such claim at all stages. Seller may not
settle or compromise any claim over the objection of the Indemnitee,
unless required by the law. If Seller does not assume the defense of
the claim, the Indemnitee may assume the defense and seek
indemnification from time to time as the amount of the claim for which
it is entitled to be indemnified becomes liquidated.
b) Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller from and
against all claims, liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
liabilities, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees
and disbursements, interest, penalties, court costs, and all costs and
expenses reasonably incurred in Buyer not properly fulfilling assumed
contracts properly, unless Seller or Company was directly or indirectly
responsible for the non-fulfillment of such assumed contracts.
c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnitee shall have the
right to employ separate counsel at Indemnitee's expense and to control
its own defense of such asserted claim if (a) there are or may be legal
defenses available to such Indemnitee or to other Indemnitees that are
different from or additional to those available to Seller, or (b) in
the opinion of counsel to such Indemnitee, a conflict or potential
conflict exists between such Indemnitee and any of the Company Parties
that would make such separate representation advisable.
d) To the extent that any of the Buyer Parties is entitled to be
indemnified by any of the Company Parties for any Loss pursuant to this
Section, Buyer shall have the right, in addition to any other rights it
may have pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, to offset or cause
the offset of such Loss against any amount payable by Buyer or any of
its affiliates to any of the Company Parties pursuant to this Agreement
or any other Transaction Document or otherwise, including without
limitation the final Purchase Price payment due hereunder.
e) The provisions of this Section shall survive termination of this
Agreement and shall survive the Closing.
5. GENERAL
5.1 Confidentiality. Buyer, Company, and Seller each agree that they
will not, and shall cause their respective affiliates, representatives
and advisors not to, use or to disclose to any person other than the
parties hereto and their respective affiliates, representatives and
advisors, any information set forth in this Agreement, the Exhibits
hereto, or any of the other Transaction Documents for any purpose
unrelated to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement. Subject to the requirements of applicable law, each party
agrees to keep confidential, and cause its affiliates, representatives
and advisors to keep confidential, all information and documents
obtained in connection with the entering into of this Agreement and the
other Transaction Documents unless such information (i) was already
known to such Person and not subject to a confidentiality obligation,
(ii) becomes available to such party from other sources not known by
such party to be bound by a confidentiality obligation, (iii) is
disclosed with the prior written approval of the party providing such
information (a "Providing Party"), or (iv) is or becomes readily
ascertainable from publicly available sources. A public announcement
regarding the proposed transaction and / or its terms shall be made
16
soon after the signing of this Agreement that will be pre-approved by
both parties prior to such announcement. If this Agreement is
terminated or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall
otherwise fail to be consummated, each party shall promptly cause all
documents and all copies thereof or extracts therefrom containing
information and data as to a providing party to be returned to the
providing party. The obligations of the parties under this Section
shall be in addition to, and shall not supersede or replace, any other
confidentiality agreements now in place between the parties, such as
the confidentiality agreement mutually executed between the parties
dated April 12, 2010, a copy of which is attached to this agreement as
Exhibit 5.01.
5.2 Governing Law and Jurisdiction. This Agreement, its construction
and the determination of any rights, duties or remedies of the parties
hereunder, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
domestic laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any
choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether the State of
Florida or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of
the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. Any
action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on
any right arising out of, this Agreement or any of the Transaction
Documents may be brought against any of the parties in the courts of
the State of New York or Florida, and each of the parties consents to
the jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate
courts) in any such action or proceeding, and waives any objection to
venue laid therein. Process in any action or proceeding referred to in
the preceding sentence may be served on any party anywhere in the
world.
5.3 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including all Exhibits and
attachments and any future amendments thereto) together with the other
Transaction Documents to be delivered pursuant hereto, constitutes the
parties' entire agreement and understandings on the subject matter
hereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements,
understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether oral or written,
express or implied, relating to the subject matter hereof.
5.4 Remedies Nonexclusive; Severability. Buyer's rights and remedies
under this Agreement are not exclusive but are in addition to all other
rights and remedies to which Buyer may be entitled under applicable law
or in equity. In the event any term or provision of this Agreement
shall for any reason be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
respect, it shall be deemed separate and shall not affect any other
provisions hereof or the validity hereof. The parties agree to re-
negotiate in good faith any term or provision held invalid and to be
bound by the mutually agreed substitute term or provision.
5.5 Modification & Waiver. This Agreement may not be amended or
modified in any respect except by written agreement duly executed by
authorized officers or representatives of each party. No waiver of any
of the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be binding or
effectual for any purpose unless in writing and signed by the party
against whom such waiver is sought to be enforced, and any such waiver
shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific
purpose given. No failure of delay on the part of either party hereto
in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as
17
a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any
right, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.
5.6 Counterparts. This Agreement has been prepared in two (2)
original counterparts, each of which when duly executed by the parties
shall be deemed an original but all of which shall constitute one and
the same Agreement.
5.7 Binding Effect. All of the terms and provisions of this
Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties
hereto and their respective successors, permitted assignees, heirs and
personal representatives. The rights and obligations provided by this
Agreement shall not be assignable by Seller or Company without Buyer's
prior written consent and such consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld. The rights and obligations provided by this Agreement shall
not be assignable by Buyer without Seller's prior written consent and
such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Nothing expressed or
referred to in this Agreement is intended or will be construed to
confer upon any person, other than the parties hereto and their
successors, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement
or any of the Transaction Documents.
5.8 Construction. This Agreement is a product of negotiation among
competent business parties and shall be interpreted fairly in
accordance with its terms, without strict construction in favor of
either party as the drafter hereof. Headings are for convenience of
reference only, and shall not affect the construction or interpretation
hereof. The term "including" shall mean including without limitation.
The parties intend that each representation, warranty, and covenant
contained herein shall have independent significance. If any party has
breached any representation, warranty or covenant contained herein in
any respect, the fact that there exists another representation,
warranty or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of
the relative levels of specificity) which the party has not breached
shall not detract from or mitigate the fact that the party is in breach
of the first representation, warranty or covenant. Notwithstanding any
other sentence in this paragraph, a party cannot xxx twice and receive
double penalties for a single cause of damage. Any term or provision of
this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any
jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the
remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability
of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any
other jurisdiction.
5.9 Injunctive Relief. It is acknowledged that any breach of this
Agreement would cause Buyer irreparable harm that could not be
adequately compensated for by damages. Accordingly, in the event of
any threatened or actual breach of this Agreement, Buyer may, in
addition to any other specific remedy for relief, enforce the
performance of this Agreement by injunction or specific performance
upon application to a court of competent jurisdiction. Seller agrees
that Buyer shall have the right to seek and obtain an injunction or
specific performance under this section even if monetary damages are
available and readily quantifiable, and without proof of actual damage.
5.10 Notices. All notices, requests, demands, claims and other
communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to
have been duly given when received by the addressee by hand delivery,
18
telecopy, or nationally recognized overnight delivery service, with
written confirmation of receipt, sent in each case to the appropriate
addresses and fax numbers set forth in the signature lines below (or to
such other addresses or fax number as either party may designate from
time to time by written notice to the other).
5.11 Publicity. Neither Buyer nor Seller shall issue any press
release or public announcement concerning this Agreement or the
transactions contemplated hereby without obtaining the prior written
approval of the other party hereto, which approval will not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed, unless, in the sole judgment of
Buyer, disclosure is otherwise required by applicable Law or by the
applicable rules of any stock exchange on which Buyer lists securities,
provided that the party intending to make such release shall use its
best efforts consistent with such applicable Law to consult with the
other party with respect to the text thereof.
5.12 Non Compete Agreement. As of the Closing Date, Xxxxx Xxxxxxx
shall have executed and delivered a non-compete agreement. A copy of
the standard non-compete agreement is included on Schedule 5.12.
5.13 Employment Agreement. As of the Closing Date, Buyer and Seller
shall have executed a mutually employment agreeable agreement with an
annual compensation package for Xx. Xxxxx Xxxxxxx in the amount of

upon. Xx. Xxxxxxx'x wife and daughter will be eliminated from the

expenses of the Farache family will be discontinued post-closing.

are the most accurate financial statements furnished with to date.

considered the provisions of paragraphs 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 and their
subparts and agrees that the restrictions set forth are fair and
reasonable and are reasonably required for the protection of the

valid and enforceable as though the invalid or unenforceable parts had
not been included. If any provision of paragraphs 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 7

unenforceable, the parties agree that the court may modify the
provision so that the restrictions are made reasonable and enforceable.
12. Miscellaneous.

submits and consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal or
state court in the county of Palm Beach, Florida or New York; and (ii)

brought in either such court in such states has been brought in an
inconvenient forum and irrevocably waives the right to object, with
respect to any such claim, action or proceeding brought in either such
court in such states, that such court does not have jurisdiction over
such party.

signed by both parties and the waiver or consent shall be effective
only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which it is
given.
