(a) by either Seller or Buyer at any time if (i) any Governmental Entity which must grant a requisite regulatory approval has denied approval of the Contemplated Transactions, requested that an application submitted for a requisite regulatory approval be withdrawn, or notified or advised any party that such Governmental Entity will not grant (or intends to rescind or revoke if previously approved) any requisite regulatory approval with respect to the Contemplated Transactions, or (ii) any Governmental Entity imposes a condition in connection with approval of the Contemplated Transactions which, in the good faith judgment of Seller or Buyer, will materially impair the ability of Buyer to complete the Contemplated Transactions; or (iii) any Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction shall have issued a final nonappealable order enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions; provided, however, that no party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1(a) if the denial or order referred to above shall be due to the failure of the party seeking to terminate this Agreement to perform or observe any of its covenants or agreements set forth herein;

(b) by either Buyer or Seller at any time, if a breach of any representation, warranty or obligation contained in this Agreement has been committed by the other party and such breach has not been cured as permitted hereby or waived;

(c) (i) by Buyer at any time if any of the conditions to Buyer’s obligation to complete the Closing specified in Sections 7 or 9 have not been satisfied as of the Closing Date or if satisfaction of such a condition is or becomes impossible (other than through the failure of Buyer to comply with their obligations under this Agreement) and Buyer has not waived such condition on or before the Closing Date; or (ii) by Seller at any time, if any of the conditions to Seller’s obligation to complete the Closing specified in Sections 8 or 9 have not been satisfied as of the Closing Date or if satisfaction of such a condition is or becomes impossible (other than

through the failure of Seller to comply with its obligations under this Agreement) and Seller has not waived such condition on or before the Closing Date;

(d) by the mutual consent of Buyer and Seller at any time;

(e) by either Buyer or Seller on or after December 31, 2009, if the Closing has not occurred (other than through the failure of any party seeking to terminate this Agreement to comply fully with its obligations under this Agreement) on or before such date, or such later date as the parties may agree;

(f) by Seller on or after November 16, 2009, if Seller does not receive from Buyer evidence satisfactory to Seller of the satisfaction of the condition set forth in clause (i) Section 7.3 (which satisfactory evidence shall include (1) signed irrevocable subscription agreements for at least the amount set forth in clause (i) of Section 7.3 of this Agreement and (2) immediately available funds in an amount at least equal to the amount set forth in clause (i) of Section 7.3 of this Agreement, on or before November 15, 2009 (or such later date as may be determined in Seller’s sole discretion); or

10.2 Effect of Termination

(a) In the event of any termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 10.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and have no effect, and none of Seller, Buyer, or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any liability of any nature whatsoever hereunder, or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, except that (i) this Section 10.2 and Sections 11.2, 12.2, 12.3 and 12.4 shall survive any termination of this Agreement and (ii), notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, neither Seller nor Buyer shall be relieved or released from any liabilities or damages arising out of its willful breach of any provision of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the fact that the obligation of Buyer to receive net proceeds in the Buyer Private Placement in the amount referenced in Section 7.3 may be deemed to be a mutual condition precedent to the Closing shall in no way affect Seller’s right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1(f).

(b) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Buyer shall pay Seller, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Seller, $250,000.00 in cash (the “Buyer Termination Fee”) held pursuant to the Escrow Agreement on or before the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date of termination if this Agreement is terminated (i) by Seller pursuant to Section 10.1(b) as a result of a breach by Buyer of any representation, warranty or obligation of Buyer or (ii) by Seller pursuant to Sections 10.1(f) or 10.1(g). By way of clarification, if either (x) the Agreement is terminated under Section 10.1(a) after November 15,

2009 and Buyer shall not have satisfied the condition set forth in clause (i) of Section 7.3 by November 15, 2009 or (y) the Agreement is terminated under Section 10.1(a) after December 15, 2009 and Buyer shall not have satisfied the condition set forth in clause (ii) of Section 7.3 by December 15, 2009, the Buyer Termination Fee shall be payable to Seller. The parties acknowledge and agree that the Buyer Termination Fee shall be payable directly to Seller pursuant to the Escrow Agreement.

(c) Seller agrees that payment of either the Buyer Termination Fee shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of Seller for any termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.2(b) in the absence of a willful breach of this Agreement by Buyer.

11. POST-CLOSING COVENANTS

11.1 Cooperation; Post-Closing Access to Information.

(a) The parties will cooperate with and provide such further assurances to each other as are reasonably necessary or requested to perfect (of record or otherwise) and effectively transfer title to the Shares to Buyer.

(b) Buyer shall preserve until at least the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing Date any records relating to the business of RAB as it is required to maintain by law. After the Closing Date, where there is a legitimate business reason or purpose, Buyer shall cause RAB to provide Seller access, upon reasonable written notice specifying the reason therefor, during normal business hours, to (i) the officers and employees of RAB and (ii) to any books of account or records of RAB, but, in each case, only to the extent relating to the assets, liabilities or business of RAB prior to the Closing Date, and Seller and its representatives shall have the right to make copies of such books of account and records at their sole cost and expense; provided, however, that the foregoing right of access shall not be exercisable in such a manner as to unreasonably interfere with the business and operations of RAB and any information obtained by Seller in accordance with this Section 11.1(b) shall be subject to the provisions of Section 11.2(a) of this Agreement.

11.2 Treatment of Confidential Information

(a) Seller acknowledges that it has or may have had in the past, and in the future may have, access to confidential information of RAB and/or Buyer, including customer lists, files, records, products, technical information, sales activities, procedures, promotion, pricing techniques, business plans, dealer lists and credit and financial data concerning customers. Seller agrees that it will keep confidential all such confidential information and, except with the specific prior written consent of Buyer, will not disclose such confidential information to any person except: (i) Representatives of Buyer or (ii) its own Representatives, provided that such Representatives acknowledge the confidentiality provisions of this Section. Confidential information shall not include (A) information that becomes known to the public generally through no fault of Seller, (B) information required to be disclosed by the terms of this Agreement or by law or by inquiry from or Order of any Governmental Entity under color of law, provided that prior to disclosing any information pursuant to this clause (B), Seller shall, if possible, give prior written notice thereof to Buyer and provide Buyer with the opportunity to

contest such disclosure, or (C) such information that the disclosing party reasonably believes the disclosure of which is required in connection with the defense of a lawsuit against Seller. Because of the difficulty of measuring the economic loss that may be incurred as a result of the breach of the covenants above, and because of the immediate and irreparable damage that would be caused for which the injured party would have no other adequate remedy, Seller agrees that Buyer and/or RAB may enforce the provisions of this Section by injunctions and restraining orders against it. Nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting Buyer from pursuing any other remedy available at law or in equity for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of damages, subject to the limitations of Article 10.

(b) Buyer acknowledges that it has had access to confidential information of RAB and its customers and Seller and agrees that, in the event that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10 for any reason, Buyer will, and will cause its affiliates to, keep confidential all such confidential information and, except with specific prior written consent of Seller, will not disclose such confidential information to any Person or use such information for the benefit of any Person. Confidential information shall not include (A) such information that becomes known to the public generally through no fault of Buyer, (B) information required to be disclosed by the terms of this Agreement or by law or by inquiry from or Order of any Governmental Entity under color of law, provided that prior to disclosing any information pursuant to this clause (B), Buyer shall, if possible, give prior written notice thereof to Seller and provide Seller with the opportunity to contest such disclosure, or (C) such information that Buyer reasonably believes the disclosure of which is required in connection with the defense of a lawsuit against Buyer. Because of the difficulty of measuring the economic loss that may be incurred as a result of the breach of the covenants above, and because of the immediate and irreparable damage that would be caused for which the injured party would have no other adequate remedy, Buyer agrees that Seller and/or RAB may enforce the provisions of this Section by injunctions and restraining orders against it. Nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting Seller from pursuing any other remedy available at law or in equity for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of damages, subject to the limitations of Article 10.

11.3 Tax Returns

Buyer agrees not to amend or otherwise change any tax return for any period ending prior to the Closing Date, or otherwise make any election or similar accounting method change that would have the effect of retroactively increasing any tax liability of Seller.
