Β
1.7.Β Contingent
Consideration.
In addition to the Share Consideration and the Cash Consideration, the Purchaser
shall pay a
contingent payment
(collectively, the βContingent
Considerationβ)
to the
Company. The Contingent Consideration may not modified without the consent
of
Adamjee. The Contingent Consideration shall be based on the Purchaserβs
achievement of financial targets based on Earnings Before Interest,
Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (βEBITDA
Targetβ),
if such EBITDA Targets are achieved by the Company for the fiscal year beginning
June 16, 2005 through June 15, 2006 (the βContingent
Consideration Periodβ),
as follows:
Β
(a)Β the
Contingent
Consideration is
an amount equal to Forty Percent (40%) of the EBITDA Target.
Β
(b)Β The
payment owned under this Section 1.7 shall not exceed Five Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($500,000). The Contingent Consideration earned under this Section
1.7
shall be calculated at the end of each calendar month following the Closing
(subject to adjustment at the end of MSSIβs fiscal year) and shall be payable
as
follows: One
Hundred Percent (100%)
to
the
Company in Ten Thousand Dollar ($10,000) monthly installments (the βMonthly
Installmentsβ), with the first Monthly Installment to be made on July 31, 2005
(for the period from June 16, 2005 to July 15, 2005) and on the last day
of each
month thereafter, if applicable. It is expressly understood that the Monthly
Installments are advance payments of the Contingent Consideration, which
will be
paid monthly, in arrears, based on the Contingent Consideration calculations
made on a rolling basis commencing on June 16, 2005. In the event the estimated
Contingent Consideration amount for any monthly measurement period is less
than
$10,000, then the payment for such month shall only be the estimated amount
of
the Contingent Consideration earned for such month, unless the Contingent
Consideration amounts for previous months exceeded $10,000 for such previous
month. For purposes of clarification, if the estimated Contingent Consideration
for the period from June 16, 2005 through July 15, 2005 is $15,000, then
$10,000
would be paid on July 31, 2005 and the excess ($5,000) would be carried forward
to the next monthly measurement period in which the Contingent Consideration
is
less than $10,000. If the estimated Contingent
Consideration for the period from August 16 through September 15, 2005
is
only
$5,000, then the payment for September 30, 2005 would nonetheless be $10,000
($5,000 carry-over for July 2005 and $5,000 for August 2005).
The
Monthly Payments shall be directed to a bank account to be specified by the
Company from time to time. The final payment of the balance of the Contingent
Consideration, if any, shall be made on September 16, 2006.
Β
(c)Β All
computations of EBITDA with respect to the Contingent Consideration Period
and
the amount of bonus hereunder (the βCalculated
Amountsβ)
shall be undertaken by MSSIβs regular independent accounting firm (the
βMSSI
Accountantsβ)
in accordance with GAAP consistently applied, and reported to the Members
by a written notice. MSSI shall supply the Members at least quarterly (or
more
frequently if calculated by MSSI) with calculations of the Contingent
Consideration for each calendar quarter. Within ninety (90) days after the
end
of the Contingent Consideration Period, MSSI shall deliver to the Company
and Adamjee a copy of the MSSI Financial Statements and a statement setting
forth in reasonable detail its computation of the Calculated Amounts. If,
within
thirty (30) days after delivery by MSSI to the Company
of such statements, or
if
the
Company gives
written notice to MSSI disputing the computation of the Calculated Amounts
or
otherwise disputing such statements (a βDispute
Noticeβ),
the MSSI Accountants and the independent certified public accountants retained
by the
Company (the βCompanyβs
Accountantsβ)
to
dispute the statement at the Companyβs expense, shall
undertake to reach an agreement as to the Calculated Amounts and shall notify
theΒ Company
and MSSI in writing as to such agreement. Any such agreement by such accountants
shall be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto. If within ten (10)
days
after the matter is referred to them, the Companyβs Accountants and the MSSI
Accountants are unable to agree as to the Calculated Amounts, such accountants
jointly shall promptly select a third independent certified public accounting
firm (the βThird
Accountantβ).
The Third Accountant shall, within thirty (30) days after the matter is referred
to it, notify the
Company
and MSSI in writing of its determination of the Calculated Amounts. Any such
determination by the Third Accountant shall be conclusive and binding on
the
parties hereto. If
the Company does not deliver a Dispute Notice to MSSI within the prescribed
timeframe, the Calculated Amounts for the Contingent Consideration Period
shall
be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto. The
fees and expenses of the Third Accountant, and all other costs associated
with
any dispute in which a Third Accountant is appointed, shall be paid by the
non-prevailing party (as determined by the Third Accountant), except that
each
of MSSI, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, shall be
responsible for its own attorneys' fees, accountants' fees and other expenses
incurred in connection with the dispute. For purposes of this Agreement,
the
non-prevailing party shall be considered to be the party whose proposed
Calculated Amount is not substantially adopted by the Third
Accountant.

2.8.4.Β Remedies.
It is expressly agreed by the Members, MSSI, the Company and the Purchaser
that
the provisions in this Section 2.8 are reasonable for purposes of preserving
for
MSSI and/or the Purchaser its business, goodwill and Confidential Information.
It is also agreed that if any provision is found by a court having jurisdiction
to be unreasonable because of scope, area or time, then that provision shall
be
amended to correspond in scope, area and time to that considered reasonable
by a
court and as amended shall be enforced and the remaining provisions shall
remain
effective. In the event any threatened or actual breach of these provisions
by
any Member or the Company, the parties recognize and acknowledge that a remedy
at law will be inadequate and MSSI and/or the Purchaser may suffer irreparable
injury. The Members and the Company consent to injunctive and other appropriate
equitable relief without the posting of a bond upon the institution of
proceedings therefor by MSSI and/or the Purchaser in order to protect MSSI
and/or the Purchaserβs rights. Such relief shall be in addition to any other
relief to which MSSI and/or the Purchaser may be entitled at law, in equity,

applicable laws and are intended to be limited to the extent necessary to

not

to
exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy created
hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any right, power or remedy by any such party preclude any other
future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.
No
waiver by any party hereto to any breach of or default in any term or condition
of this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of or assent to any succeeding
breach of or default in the same or any other term or condition
hereof.
