(ii) Within 30 days after Buyer’s delivery of the Allocation Schedule to Seller, Seller may deliver to Buyer a written notice (an “Allocation Schedule Objection”) of any disagreement with the Allocation Schedule, specifying any proposed changes thereto consistent with Section 1060 of the Code. If an Allocation Schedule Objection is not timely delivered, the Allocation Schedule delivered by Buyer will be deemed final.

(iii) If an Allocation Schedule Objection is timely delivered, Buyer and Seller will, during the 30 days following such delivery, use their commercially reasonable efforts to agree on the disputed items or amounts to determine the Allocation Schedule. If the Parties resolve all disputes, the Allocation Schedule, as amended to the extent necessary to reflect the resolution of the dispute, will be conclusive and binding on the Parties. If no such agreement is reached during such 30 day period, then Buyer and Seller, jointly, will engage an independent valuation firm mutually acceptable to Buyer and Seller for the purpose of determining the Allocation Schedule (it being understood that in making such determination, the valuation firm will be functioning as an expert and not as an arbitrator). The valuation firm will deliver to Buyer and Seller, as promptly as practicable (but in any case no later than 45 days from the date of engagement of the valuation firm), a report setting forth such determination and the Allocation Schedule. The decision of the valuation firm will be final and binding on Buyer and Seller. The fees, costs and expenses of the valuation firm’s review and report will be borne by Buyer.

(iv) Buyer and Seller will, and will cause their respective representatives to, cooperate and assist in the preparation of the Allocation Schedule and in the conduct of the review referred to in this Section 2.4(e), including making available to the extent necessary its applicable property, books, records, work papers and personnel.

(v) None of Buyer, Seller or any of their Affiliates will take a position on a Tax Return or otherwise that is inconsistent with the Allocation Schedule as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.4(e).

Section 2.5 Purchase Price Adjustment.

(a) As soon as practicable after the Closing, but no later than 60 days after, Buyer will prepare and deliver, or cause to be prepared and delivered, to Seller a closing statement and a certificate based on such closing statement setting forth Buyer’s calculation of the Closing Working Capital (the “Closing Statement”). The Closing Statement will present the Net Working Capital as of 12:01 a.m., Central time, on the Closing Date (the “Closing Working Capital”). An example of the calculation of Net Working Capital as of January 31, 2014 is set forth on Schedule 2.5(a).

(b) Within 30 days after Buyer’s delivery of the Closing Statement to Seller, Seller may deliver to Buyer a written notice (a “Closing Statement Objection”) of any disagreement with the Closing Statement, specifying any proposed adjustment thereto (an “Adjustment Request”). Any such Adjustment Request will specify those items or amounts as to which Seller disagrees, and Seller will be deemed to have agreed with all other items and amounts contained in the Closing Statement and the calculation of the Closing Working Capital delivered pursuant to Section 2.5(a). If the Closing Statement Objection is not timely delivered, the Closing Statement will be deemed final.

(c) If Seller timely delivers to Buyer a Closing Statement Objection pursuant to Section 2.5(b), Buyer and Seller will, during the 30 days following such delivery, use their commercially reasonable efforts to agree on the disputed items or amounts to determine the amount of the Closing Working Capital. If the Parties resolve all disputes, the computation of the Closing Working Capital, as amended to the extent necessary to reflect the resolution of the dispute, will be conclusive and binding on the Parties. If no such agreement is reached during such 30 day period, then Buyer and Seller, jointly, will engage Ernst & Young LLP (the “Independent Accountant”), to review this Agreement and the disputed items or amounts for the purpose of calculating the Closing Working Capital (it being understood that in making such calculation, the Independent Accountant will be functioning as an expert and not as an arbitrator). In making such calculation, the Independent Accountant will act in good faith and consider only those items or amounts in the Closing Statement and the calculation of the Closing Working Capital as to which Seller has disagreed. The Independent Accountant will deliver to Buyer and Seller, as promptly as practicable (but in any case no later than 30 days from the date of engagement of the Independent Accountant), a report setting forth such calculation. In no event will the amount of the Closing Working Capital be less than the amount thereof shown in Buyer’s calculation delivered pursuant to Section 2.5(a) nor more than the amount thereof shown in Seller’s calculation delivered pursuant to Section 2.5(b). During the period in which the Independent Accountant is making its determination, the Independent Accountant may communicate with Buyer and Seller from time to time; provided, however, that neither Seller nor Buyer will have any communication with the Independent Accountant without first offering the other Party a reasonable opportunity to participate in that communication at a time acceptable to Buyer, Seller, and the Independent Accountant. The decision of the Independent Accountant will be final and binding on Buyer and Seller. The fees, costs and expenses of the Independent Accountant’s review and report will be divided equally between Buyer and Seller.

(d) Buyer and Seller will, and will cause their respective representatives to, cooperate and assist in the preparation of the Closing Statement and the calculation of the Closing Working Capital and in the conduct of the review referred to in this Section 2.5, including making available to the extent necessary its applicable books, records, work papers and personnel.

(e) If Seller timely delivers to Buyer a Closing Statement Objection pursuant to Section 2.5(b) and the Closing Working Capital would be less than the Net Working Capital Threshold Amount if all disputed items or amounts in the Closing Statement Objection were to be resolved in favor of Seller, Seller will pay Buyer the amount of such deficiency within three Business Days after Seller delivers the Closing Statement Objection to Buyer by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated in writing by Buyer.

(f) After the Closing Working Capital is deemed final pursuant to Section 2.5(c), if the Closing Working Capital is less than the Net Working Capital Threshold Amount, Seller will pay Buyer the amount of such deficiency (less any amount paid by Seller to Buyer pursuant to Section 2.5(e)). Any payment pursuant to this Section 2.5(f) will be due no later than three Business Days after the Closing Working Capital is deemed final pursuant to Section 2.5(c), and will be payable by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated in writing by Buyer.

Section 2.6 Contingent Consideration.

(a) Seller will be entitled to receive additional cash consideration if, (i) on or prior to the Closing Date, Seller or (ii) within 270 days from the Closing Date, Buyer, enters into any binding purchase order resulting from any or all of the potential customer projects described on Schedule 2.6(a) (each a “Purchase Order”) which (A) is on terms that are consistent with the Ordinary Course of Business and (B) has a projected Gross Margin as of the date of such Purchase Order or, for any Purchase Order accepted by Seller prior to Closing, as of the Closing Date, in excess of 25%. In such case, subject to Section 2.6(b), Seller will be entitled to an amount equal to 5% of the aggregate consideration received by Buyer after the Closing in connection with each such Purchase Order (collectively, the “Contingent Consideration”).

(b) Any Contingent Consideration with respect to a Purchase Order or a deliverable thereunder will be considered fully earned and payable to Seller within 30 days after Buyer’s actual receipt of each and every corresponding cash payment related to such Purchase Order, without giving effect to any credits, refunds, incentives, or offsets provided to the applicable customer under such Purchase Order.

(c) Seller acknowledges that (i) the provisions of this Section 2.6 are an integral part of the consideration to be received by Seller in respect of the Purchased Assets, (ii) there may be no Contingent Consideration payable pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.6, (iii) the rights of Seller under this Section 2.6 will not be represented by certificates or other instruments and will not represent an ownership interest in Buyer or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries, (iv) the rights of Seller under this Section 2.6 are not transferable, except as provided in Section 10.3, and (v) the rights of Seller to payment of Contingent Consideration will not bear any interest.

(d) Seller acknowledges that Buyer’s operation of the Business may affect the ability to realize any Contingent Consideration, and Buyer will not be obligated to enter into or accept a Purchase Order pursuant this Section 2.6 if, in the reasonable, good faith judgment of Buyer, the Purchase Order (i) will not result in a Gross Margin equal to or greater than 25% or (ii) is not, or would not be, on terms and conditions that are consistent with the Ordinary Course of Business of Seller. Buyer agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to perform its obligations under each accepted Purchase Order.

Section 2.7 Closing. The Closing will take place at the offices of Xxxxx Day, 0000 Xxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxx, at 10:00 a.m., Central time, as promptly as practicable following the date of this Agreement and in any event no later than the third Business Day following the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VII (other than those conditions that by their terms cannot be satisfied until the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions), or at such other place or such other time as Seller and Buyer may mutually agree.

The organizational documents of Seller are in full force and effect. The states in which Seller is qualified to do business as a foreign entity are identified on Schedule 4.1(a).

Any Tax Returns that must be filed in connection with Transfer Taxes will be prepared by the Party primarily or customarily responsible under applicable Law for filing such Tax Returns, and such Party will provide such Tax Returns to the other Party at least ten Business Days prior to the date such Tax Returns are due to be filed. Seller and Buyer will cooperate in the timely completion and filing of all such Tax Returns.

(b) Proration. Seller will bear all property and ad valorem Tax Liability with respect to the Purchased Assets if the payment date of such Taxes arises prior to the Closing Date. All other real property Taxes, personal property Taxes, or ad valorem obligations and similar recurring Taxes and fees on the Purchased Assets for taxable periods beginning before, and ending after, the Closing Date, will be prorated between Seller and Buyer as of the Closing Date. Seller will be responsible for all such Taxes and fees on the Purchased Assets due and payable during any period up to and including the Closing Date. Buyer will be responsible for all such Taxes and fees on the Purchased Assets due and payable during any period after the Closing Date. With respect to the Taxes described in this Section 6.2(b), Seller will timely file all Tax Returns due before the Closing Date with respect to such Taxes and Buyer will prepare and timely file all Tax Returns due after the Closing Date with respect to such Taxes. If one Party remits to the appropriate Government Entity payment for Taxes, which are subject to proration under this Section 6.2(b) and such payment includes the other Party’s share of such Taxes, such other Party will promptly reimburse the remitting Party for its share of such Taxes.

(c) Cooperation on Tax Matters. Buyer and Seller will furnish or cause to be furnished to each other, as promptly as practicable, such information and assistance relating to the Purchased Assets and the Assumed Liabilities as is reasonably necessary for the preparation and filing of any Tax Return, claim for refund or other filings relating to Tax matters, for the preparation for any Tax audit, for the preparation for any Tax protest, and for the prosecution or defense of any Legal Proceeding relating to Tax matters.

Section 6.3 Employee Matters. Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer will offer employment to substantially all of the Employees, and Seller will use its commercially reasonable efforts to assist Buyer in employing such Employees as employees of Buyer effective as of the Closing. Buyer will offer compensation and benefits to such Employees on a basis comparable to those currently provided to such Employees by Seller. Buyer agrees that the years of service to Seller by each Employee employed by Buyer will count towards the years of service to Buyer for purposes of determining eligibility and vesting under Buyer’s vacation policy, retirement plan, and health plan. Seller will terminate all employment arrangements Seller has with the Employees effective as of the Closing in a manner that does not result in the payment of severance for any Employee hired by Buyer. Seller will be responsible for any severance or similar obligations arising from such terminations.

Section 6.4 Efforts; Consents.

(a) Commercially Reasonable Efforts; Further Assurances. The Parties will use their commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, and assist and cooperate with the other Parties in doing, all things necessary or desirable under applicable Law to consummate, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the Transaction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, from time to time, as and when requested by any Party and at such requesting Party’s expense (except as otherwise provided in this Agreement), any other Party will promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver, or cause to be executed, acknowledged and delivered, any assurances or documents or instruments of transfer, or take, or cause to be taken, all such further or other action, as reasonably requested by any other Party to consummate the Transaction or further document and record the assignment of the Purchased Assets made hereby.

(b) Efforts to Obtain Consents. Prior to the Closing Date, Seller will use its commercially reasonable efforts to give all notices required to be given by Seller and to obtain all Consents of any Person (including any Government Entity) necessary to consummate the Transaction. Buyer will cooperate with Seller in obtaining such Consents; provided, however, that any costs or expenses in connection therewith will be borne solely by Seller, and neither Buyer nor its Affiliates will be required to make any payments or offer or grant any accommodation (financial or otherwise). All such Consents and notices will be in writing and in form and substance reasonably

satisfactory to Buyer and Seller. Seller will provide to Buyer copies of each such Consent after it has been obtained. Prior to the Closing Date, Buyer will use its commercially reasonable efforts to give all notices required to be given by Buyer and to obtain all Consents set forth on Schedule 5.2.

(c) Third Party Consents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Agreement will not constitute an agreement to assign or transfer any Assumed Contract or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom if any assignment or transfer or attempt to make such an assignment or transfer is not permitted without the Consent of, or notice to, a third party or would constitute a breach or violation thereof or affect adversely the rights of Buyer or Seller thereunder (any assets so described, the “Non-assigned Assets”). After the Closing, Seller and Buyer will use their commercially reasonable efforts (including the dedication of resources thereto, but without any obligation to make any payments or offer or grant any accommodation (financial or otherwise)) to obtain the Consent of, or provide the required notice to, such third parties to or of the assignment to Buyer of any Assumed Contract or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder or otherwise transfer the rights and benefits of any Non-assigned Asset to Buyer. If such Consent is not obtained, or such notice is not made, or if an attempted assignment thereof would be ineffective or would adversely affect the rights of Seller thereunder so that Buyer would not in fact receive all such rights, for the period from the Closing until such Consent is obtained or notice is made, Buyer and Seller will enter into a mutually acceptable arrangement under which (i) Buyer agrees to assume all of the obligations and Liabilities under, and Seller agrees to provide to Buyer the benefits of, each and every Non-assigned Asset, including by sub-contracting, sub-licensing, or sub-leasing to Buyer, and (ii) Seller agrees to enforce for the benefit of Buyer any and all rights of Seller against a third party thereto, in each case as to provide the benefits and obligations and Liabilities thereunder to the same extent had the Non-assigned Asset been assigned, transferred and conveyed to Buyer at the Closing as an Assumed Contract as contemplated by this Agreement. In connection with any such arrangement, other than for any Buyer’s Warranty Work Cost, Buyer will reimburse Seller for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses actually incurred by Seller in connection with such arrangement, the administration thereof, or that otherwise would have been incurred by Buyer had such Non-assigned Asset been assigned, transferred or conveyed to Buyer as an Assumed Contract as contemplated by this Agreement (such costs and expenses, the “Alternative Arrangement Costs”). Seller will promptly pay to Buyer when received all monies received, after offsetting applicable Alternative Arrangement Costs owed but not yet paid by Buyer, by Seller or its Affiliates under such Non-assigned Asset or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder.

Section 6.5 Notification. From the date hereof until the Closing Date, as promptly as practicable following the discovery thereof, Seller and the Shareholder will disclose to Buyer in writing any development, fact or circumstance arising after the date hereof causing a breach of any of the representations and warranties contained in Article III and Article IV and of any breach of the covenants in this Agreement made by Seller or the Shareholder. No information or disclosure provided to Buyer pursuant to

this Section 6.5 will be deemed to cure any breach of any representation or warranty or covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or have any effect for purposes of the indemnification obligations of Seller or the Shareholder, the conditions to the Closing set forth in Article VII or Buyer’s ability to terminate the Agreement pursuant to Article VIII.

Section 6.6 Confidentiality.

(a) Effective as of the Closing Date, the Confidentiality Agreement will terminate.

(b) After the Closing Date, Seller and the Shareholder will, and will instruct their agents, representatives and Affiliates to, keep in strict confidence, and will not, directly or indirectly, at any time, disclose, furnish, disseminate, publish, or make available, except to Buyer and its representatives and Affiliates and to the extent required to perform the Shareholder’s obligations under this Agreement, any Trade Secrets regarding Seller, the Business, the Purchased Assets or the Transaction contemplated herein.

(d) In the event that Seller or the Shareholder will be legally compelled or required by any Government Entity to disclose any Trade Secrets regarding the Business or the Purchased Assets, Seller or the Shareholder, as the case may be, will promptly provide written notice to Buyer to enable Buyer, at its sole cost, to seek a protective Order, in camera process or other appropriate remedy to avoid public or any other disclosure of such Trade Secrets. In the event that such protective Order or other remedy is not obtained, Seller or the Shareholder, as the case may be, will furnish only so much of such Trade Secrets regarding the Business or the Purchased Assets as it is legally compelled to disclose (upon advice of legal counsel) and will exercise its reasonable best efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such Trade Secrets. Such Trade Secrets will otherwise remain subject to the provisions of this Section 6.6. Seller and the Shareholder will cooperate with and assist Buyer in seeking any protective Order or other relief requested pursuant to this Section 6.6.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, during such seven year period, either Buyer or Seller (or any of their Affiliates) may dispose of any such books and records which are offered to, but not accepted by, the other Party. If at any time after such seven year period either such Party (or its Affiliate) intends to dispose of any such books and records, such Party will not do so without first offering such books and records to such other Party.

If any provision of this Section 6.9 will, for any reason, be judged by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, such judgment will not affect, impair or invalidate the remainder of this Section 6.9 but will be confined in its operation to the provision of this Section 6.9 directly involved in the controversy in which such judgment shall have been rendered. In the event that the provisions of this Section 6.9 should ever be deemed to exceed the scope of activity, time or geographic limitations permitted by applicable Laws, then such provision will be reformed to the maximum scope of activity, time or geographic limitations permitted by applicable Law.

(a) any failure to be true and correct as of the date of this Agreement, and as of the Closing (as if made anew at and as of the Closing), of any representation or warranty made by Seller or the Shareholder contained in this Agreement (or the certificate delivered pursuant to Section 7.2(c));

(b) any nonfulfillment or breach of any covenant or agreement made by Seller or the Shareholder contained in this Agreement;

(d) any Excluded Assets.

Section 9.4 Third Party Claim Indemnification Procedures.

(a) In the event that any Legal Proceeding is instituted or that any claim or demand is asserted by any third party for which Buyer (in respect of claims made pursuant Section 9.2) or Seller and the Shareholder (in respect of claims made pursuant to Section 9.3) (an “Indemnifying Party”) may have liability to a Person pursuant to this Article IX (an “Indemnified Party”) (such Legal Proceeding, claim or demand, a “Third Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party will promptly, but in no event more than 30 days following such Indemnified Party’s receipt of a Third Party Claim, promptly notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of such Third Party Claim (a “Claim Notice”); provided, however, that the failure to timely give a Claim Notice will affect the rights of an Indemnified Party hereunder only if and to the extent such failure has an actual prejudicial effect on the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party will have 20 days (or such lesser number of days set forth in the Claim Notice as may be required by court proceeding in the event of a Legal Proceeding) after receipt of the Claim Notice (the “Notice Period”) to notify the Indemnified Party that it desires to defend the Indemnified Party against such Third Party Claim, which may include a reservation of rights on behalf of the Indemnifying Party.

(b) In the event that the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party within the Notice Period that it desires to defend the Indemnified Party against a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party will have the right to defend the Indemnified Party by appropriate proceedings and will have the sole power to direct and control such defense. Once the Indemnifying Party has duly assumed the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in any such defense and to employ separate counsel of its choosing. The Indemnified Party’s participation in any such defense will be at its own expense unless (i) representation of the Indemnified Party’s interests by the Indemnifying Party’s counsel would involve an actual conflict of interest or (ii) the Indemnified Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim after the Indemnifying Party has failed to diligently pursue a Third Party Claim it has assumed, as provided in the first sentence of Section 9.4(c), in which either case the Indemnifying Party will pay the expenses of the Indemnified Party’s counsel to the extent of its indemnification obligations hereunder. The Indemnifying Party will not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent will not be unreasonably conditioned, delayed, or withheld), settle, compromise or offer to settle or compromise any Third Party Claim on a basis that would result in (A) the imposition of a consent Order, injunction or decree that would restrict the future activity or conduct of the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates, (B) a finding or admission of a violation of Law or violation of the rights of any Person by the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates, (C) a finding or admission that would have an adverse effect on other claims made or threatened against the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates, or (D) any monetary liability of the Indemnified Party that will not be promptly paid or reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnified Party will cooperate in the defense of any Third Party Claim, including by providing access to such personnel, support and relevant business records and other documents, as may be reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party in connection with such defense.

(c) If the Indemnifying Party (i) elects not to defend the Indemnified Party against a Third Party Claim, whether by not giving the Indemnified Party timely notice of its desire to so defend or otherwise or (ii) after assuming the defense of a Third Party Claim, fails to use its reasonable best efforts to defend diligently such Third Party Claim within ten Business Days after receiving written notice from the Indemnified Party to the effect that the Indemnifying Party has so failed, the Indemnified Party will have the right but not the obligation to assume its own defense, in which case the Indemnified Party will have sole power to direct and control such defense (it being understood that the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification for a Third Party Claim will not be adversely affected by assuming the defense of such Third Party Claim). In such case, the Indemnified Party will not settle, compromise or offer to settle or compromise the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent will not be unreasonably conditioned, delayed, or withheld.

(d) The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party will use their reasonable best efforts to avoid production of Confidential Information (consistent with applicable Law) and to cause all communications among employees, counsel and others representing any party to a Third Party Claim to be made so as to preserve any applicable attorney-client or work-product privileges.

Section 9.5 Notice of Direct Claims. Any claim for indemnification of Losses under this Article IX that is not a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) by an Indemnified Party will be asserted by giving prompt written notice thereof to Seller (in the case of indemnification sought by a Buyer Indemnified Party) or Buyer (in the case of indemnification sought by a Seller Indemnified Party); provided, however, that any delay in providing, or the failure to provide such notification, will not affect the right of the Indemnified Party to indemnification hereunder except in the event that such delay or failure extends past the applicable survival expiration date set forth in Section 9.1 or to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by the delay or failure. Such notice will describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, including (to the extent practicable) copies of any written evidence thereof and will indicate the estimated amount of Losses, if reasonably determinable, that has been sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party will have 20 Business Days after the Direct Claim is asserted to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. If such response by the Indemnifying Party is not received within such 20 Business Day period, the Indemnifying Party will be deemed to have accepted such claim, in which event the Direct Claim will be deemed due and payable to the Indemnified Party. If a response of the Indemnifying Party disputing the Direct Claim is received by the Indemnified Party within such 20 Business Day period the Indemnified Party will be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Article IX.

Section 9.6 Certain Limitations on Indemnification.

(a) Seller and the Shareholder will have no liability for indemnification pursuant to Section 9.3(a) with respect to Losses for which indemnification is provided thereunder unless and until the aggregate amount of such Losses exceeds $150,000 (the “Basket”), in which case Seller and the Shareholder will be liable for all such Losses, including all Losses initially applied against the Basket; provided that in no event will the aggregate indemnification to be paid by Seller and the Shareholder pursuant to Section 9.3(a) exceed $2,500,000. Subject to Section 9.10, Seller and the Shareholder will not have any obligation to pay to Buyer an aggregate amount in excess of $5,000,000 in respect of Losses indemnifiable pursuant to Section 9.3(c) resulting from (i) any alleged or actual infringement or violation of the Intellectual Property of any Person prior to Closing or (ii) any written product warranty with respect to any Pre-Closing Product.

(b) The limitations set forth in Section 9.6(a) will not apply to any claim arising out of or resulting from fraud or intentional misrepresentation or to claims of indemnification by Buyer Indemnified Parties in connection with any inaccuracy in or breach of the representations and warranties contained in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.8, and 4.21. For the avoidance of doubt, other than as specified in the last sentence of Section 9.6(a), the limitations set forth in Section 9.6(a) will not apply to any claim pursuant to Section 9.3(b), 9.3(c) or 9.3(d).

(c) Each Party will take all commercially reasonable steps to mitigate its Losses upon and after becoming aware of any event or condition which would reasonably be expected to give rise to any Losses that are indemnifiable hereunder, including using its reasonable best efforts to recover any insurance proceeds in connection therewith. The failure to so mitigate or recover such insurance proceeds will not affect any Indemnified Party’s ability to make, and will not give rise to a right of set-off or otherwise constitute a defense against, a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Agreement; provided further that the foregoing will not relieve an Indemnified Party of its obligations under the immediately preceding sentence. Payments by the Indemnifying Party in respect of any Losses will be calculated net of any insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment actually received by the Indemnified Party from any insurer or other third party in respect of such Loss, less any related costs and expenses, including the aggregate cost of pursuing any related insurance claims, any Taxes paid or payable as a result of receipt of such proceeds or payment, and any related increases in insurance premiums or other chargebacks. Promptly after the realization of any insurance proceeds, indemnity, contribution or other similar payment, the Indemnified Party will reimburse the Indemnifying Party for such reduction in Losses for which the Indemnified Party was indemnified prior to the realization of reduction of such Losses.

(d) In determining (i) whether any representation or warranty made by Seller, the Shareholder or Buyer in this Agreement (or any certification delivered pursuant to this Agreement) was true and correct as of any particular date and (ii) the amount of any Losses in respect of the failure of any such representation or warranty to be true and correct as of any particular date, any qualification or limitation as to materiality contained in such representation or warranty will be disregarded.

(e) Seller and the Shareholder will have no liability for indemnification pursuant to Section 9.3(a) for the failure of the representations and warranties set forth in the first sentence of each of Sections 4.13(c) and 4.13(d) to be true and correct with respect to any Losses arising out of the conduct of the Business or the use of the Purchased Assets by the Buyer and its Affiliates after the Closing.

Section 9.7 Damages. An Indemnified Party will be permitted to recover damages that are probable and reasonably foreseeable, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.6. The burden of proof of any such damages will be on the party that asserts the claim for such damages. In no event will any Party be liable to any Party or other Person for any special, indirect, lost opportunity, exemplary or punitive damages of any kind, regardless of whether such Party will be advised, will have other reason to know, or in fact will know of the possibility of the foregoing; unless such damages are owed to a third party as part of a judgment in connection with a claim of such third party against an Indemnified Party.

Section 9.8 Payments.

(a) Subject to Section 9.12(a), Seller and the Shareholder (if the Indemnified Party is a Buyer Indemnified Party) or Buyer (if the Indemnified Party is a Seller Indemnified Party) will pay or cause to be paid to the Indemnified Party, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the amount of any Loss for which it is liable hereunder no later than three Business Days following any final determination of such Loss and the Indemnifying Party’s liability therefor. A “Final Determination” will exist when (i) the parties to the dispute have reached an agreement in writing, (ii) the Indemnifying Party does not respond within the 20 Business Day period stipulated in Section 9.5, (iii) a court of competent jurisdiction shall have entered a final and non-appealable Order, or (iv) an arbitration or like panel shall have rendered a final non-appealable determination with respect to disputes the parties have agreed to submit thereto.

Section 9.9 Effect of Waiver of Condition. No Indemnified Party’s right to indemnity pursuant to this Article IX will be adversely affected by any waiver of a condition to Closing unless the terms of such waiver expressly waive such Indemnified Party’s right to indemnity with respect to the matter that is the subject of the waiver.

Section 9.10 Remedies. Following the Closing, this Article IX will be the exclusive remedy for any Losses arising out of any breach of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the Parties other than in respect of fraud or intentional misrepresentation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties are entitled to injunctive relief or other specific enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.11. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary and for the avoidance of doubt, regardless of the limitations set forth in Section 9.6(a), (a) a Buyer Indemnified Party or a Seller Indemnified Party may assert as a defense to a Third Party Claim that, in the case of a claim against a Buyer Indemnified Party, Buyer did not assume or acquire the Retained Liabilities or Excluded Assets from Seller or that, in the case of a claim against a Seller Indemnified Party, Seller did not retain the Purchased Assets or the Assumed Liabilities, and (b) in either such case in the foregoing clause (a), the Indemnified Party may bring the Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, into any Legal Proceeding in respect of such Third Party Claim as a third party defendant and recover Losses as a result of such Third Party Claim or Legal Proceeding. The procedures set forth in this Article IX will not apply in respect of a Third Party Claim described in clause (a) of the foregoing sentence if the Buyer Indemnified Party or Seller Indemnified Party, as the case may be, is dismissed or removed as a party from the Third Party Claim; provided that such procedures will be restored and will apply if the Buyer Indemnified Party or Seller Indemnified Party, respectively, becomes a party to the Third Party Claim.

Section 9.11 Tax Treatment of Indemnity Payments. Seller, the Shareholder and Buyer agree to treat any indemnity payment made pursuant to this Article IX as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for all Tax purposes, except to the extent otherwise required by applicable Law.

Section 9.12 Release of Escrow Fund.

(a) Seller’s portion of Buyer’s costs of Warranty Work, as determined in accordance with Section 6.14, will be paid from the Escrow Fund. In addition, promptly upon a Final Determination of any claim for indemnification made by a Buyer Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 9.3, such payment will be paid (i) first, from the Escrow Fund and (ii) second, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.6, in the case of any payment with respect to which the then-remaining Escrow Fund is insufficient to satisfy such payment obligation, by Seller or Shareholder.

(b) Within five Business Days following the first anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Initial Escrow Release Date”), Buyer and Seller will execute and deliver to the Escrow Agent a certificate jointly instructing the Escrow Agent to distribute in accordance with the Escrow Agreement to the account or accounts designated by Seller an aggregate amount equal to (i) $1,000,000 minus (ii) the total amounts previously paid out of the Escrow Fund minus (iii) the amount of any unresolved indemnification claims asserted by Buyer in good faith pursuant to this Article IX, as such amount is reasonably estimated in good faith by Buyer.

(c) Within five Business Days following the second anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Escrow Release Date”), Buyer and Seller will execute and deliver to the Escrow Agent a certificate jointly instructing the Escrow Agent to distribute in accordance with the Escrow Agreement to the account or accounts designated by Seller an aggregate amount equal to (i) the amount then remaining in the Escrow Fund minus (ii) the amount of any unresolved indemnification claims asserted by Buyer in good faith pursuant to this Article IX, as such amount is reasonably estimated in good faith by Buyer. Any amounts that thereafter remain in the Escrow Fund will continue to be held in the Escrow Fund in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement until the resolution and payment of the indemnification claims asserted by Buyer pursuant to this Article IX.

Section 10.2 Amendment; Waiver. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment, by the Parties, or in the case of a waiver, by the Party against whom the waiver is to be effective. No failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder will operate as a waiver thereof nor will any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

Section 10.3 No Assignment or Benefit to Third Parties. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns. No Party may assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement, by operation of Law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the other Parties, and any such purported assignment in violation of this Agreement will be null and void; provided, however, that Buyer may, without such consent, assign any of its rights pursuant to this Agreement (in whole or in part) to any Affiliate of Buyer or, following the Closing, any subsequent purchaser of all or substantially all of the assets and properties of Buyer (whether via merger or otherwise). Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any Person other than the Shareholder, Seller, Buyer, the Indemnified Parties and their respective successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement.

Section 10.4 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements (including all Schedules and Exhibits hereto and thereto) contains the entire agreement and understanding among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, with respect to such matters.

Section 10.5 Public Disclosure. No public announcement or other publicity regarding the existence of this Agreement or its contents or the Transaction contemplated hereby will be made by Buyer, the Shareholder, Seller or any of their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, managers, employees, representatives or agents, unless specifically approved in advance by Buyer and Seller, in any case, as to the form, content, timing and manner of distribution or publication; provided, that nothing in this Agreement will prevent Buyer or its Affiliates from making any filing or disclosures required by Law (including applicable securities Laws) or the rules of any stock exchange or from publicly issuing a press release, in each case, with respect to this Agreement or its contents or the Transaction contemplated hereby (the contents of which will be determined by Buyer and its Affiliates in their sole discretion if Buyer has used all reasonable efforts to consult with Seller and obtain Seller’s consent, which will not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed, but has been unable to do so in a timely manner).

Section 10.6 Expenses.

(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, whether or not the Transaction is consummated, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Transaction will be borne by the Party incurring such costs and expenses.

(b) In the event of any litigation brought to enforce or interpret this Agreement, or arising out of its negotiation, performance, or subject matter, the Party who prevails will be entitled to recover its attorneys’ fees and costs, including those incurred at trial, in any bankruptcy or other proceeding, on appeal, and in enforcing any judgment, as determined by the court.

Section 10.7 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Selection of Forum; Waiver of Trial by Jury.

(a) This Agreement and any other document or instrument delivered pursuant hereto, and all claims or causes of action (whether in contract or tort) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution, termination, performance or nonperformance of this Agreement, will be deemed to be made in and in all respects will be interpreted, construed and governed by and in accordance with the law of the State of New York, without regard to the conflicts of law principles thereof. Each Party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or state court located in the Borough of Manhattan in New York City, and of any court in which appeals from judgments of such courts may be heard (the “Designated Courts”) in respect of the interpretation and enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement and of the documents referred to in this Agreement, and in respect of the Transaction (including the pursuit of injunctive (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) monetary or other, relief), and hereby waives, and agrees not to assert, as a defense in any Legal Proceeding for the interpretation or enforcement of this Agreement or of any such document, that the Party is not subject to personal jurisdiction in that court or that such Legal Proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in said courts or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this Agreement or any such document may not be enforced in or by such courts, and each Party irrevocably agrees that all claims with respect to such Legal Proceeding will be heard and determined in one of the Designated Courts. Each Party hereby consents to and grants any such court jurisdiction over the person of such parties and, to the extent permitted by Law, over the subject matter of such dispute. Each Party agrees that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such action or proceeding in the manner provided in Section 10.1 or in such other manner as may be permitted by Law will be valid and sufficient service thereof.

(b) EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (i) NO

REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (ii) EACH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (iii) EACH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (iv) EACH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10.7(b).

Section 10.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, and all of which will constitute one and the same Agreement.

Section 10.9 Headings. The heading references herein and the table of contents hereof are for convenience purposes only, and will not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.

Section 10.10 Severability. The provisions of this Agreement will be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision will not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any Person or any circumstance, is invalid or unenforceable, (a) a suitable and equitable provision will be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid or unenforceable provision and (b) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances will not be affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, nor will such invalidity or unenforceability affect the validity or enforceability of such provision, or the application thereof, in any other jurisdiction.

Section 10.11 Specific Performance. Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that a violation of any of the terms of this Agreement will cause the other Parties irreparable injury for which adequate remedy at Law is not available. Accordingly, it is agreed that each of the Parties will be entitled to specific performance, injunction, restraining Order or other equitable relief, without the posting of any bond, to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of competent jurisdiction, in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled at law or equity.

Section 10.12 Investigation. Buyer acknowledges that it and its representatives have undertaken an independent investigation and verification of the business, assets, operations, financial condition and prospects of Seller and the Business. In connection with such investigation, Buyer and its representatives have received from or on behalf of Seller certain estimates, forecasts, plans and financial projections (“Forward-Looking Statements”), and Buyer acknowledges that (a) there are uncertainties inherent in making Forward-Looking Statements and (b) it is familiar with such uncertainties and it is taking full responsibility for making its own evaluation of the adequacy and accuracy of all Forward-Looking Statements so furnished to it and its representatives (including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying Forward-Looking Statements where such assumptions are explicitly disclosed). Neither Seller nor any other Person will have or be subject to any Liability to Buyer, or any other Person resulting from the distribution to Buyer, or its use of, Forward-Looking Statements, except in cases of fraud or willful misconduct.
