The aggregate consideration for the shares shall be paid as provided in Section 2.3 and shall be subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.5. The purchase and sale of the Shares is referred to in this Agreement as the “Acquisition”.

2.2 Closing Date. The closing of the Acquisition (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Xxxxxx, Xxxxx & Xxxxxxx LLP, 0000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxx, Pennsylvania, at 10:00 a.m. on the date hereof. The date upon which the Closing occurs is herein referred to as the “Closing Date.”

2.3 Transactions to be Effected at the Closing.

(a) At the Closing, Buyer shall pay in cash an aggregate amount equal to: (i) $10,350,000 minus the amount of the Free Cash Estimate (if it is a negative amount) (the “Closing Payment”) by wire transfer to one or more accounts of such Sellers, as designated in writing by each Seller to Buyer no later than three Business Days prior to the Closing Date, (ii) the amount of the Free Cash Estimate (if it is a positive amount) by wire transfer to one or more accounts of such Sellers, as designated in writing by each Seller to Buyer and (iii) $1,050,000 (the “Initial Escrow Deposit”) to XX Xxxxxx Chase, N.A. as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”) pursuant to the Escrow Agreement (the Initial Escrow Deposit, together with any additional funds that may be placed into the escrow account from time to time, shall be the “Escrow Funds”), which Escrow Funds shall be released in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Escrow Agreement.

(b) At the Closing, Sellers’ Representative and Buyer shall enter into the Escrow Agreement with the Escrow Agent under which the Escrow Agent shall hold the Escrow Funds (i) pending evaluating the Actual Net Revenue Amount of the Domain Name Portfolio as set forth in Section 2.3(c) below and (ii) as a source of recovery for any indemnification claims against Sellers under Article VIII.

(c) The Escrow Agreement will provide for payment of the Escrow Funds to the Sellers at the end of the Escrow Period upon joint written instructions of Buyer and Sellers’ Representative, net of any reductions for pending or resolved indemnification claims against Sellers under Article VIII, to be adjusted as follows: for each dollar that the Actual Net Revenue Amount is less than the Target Net Revenue Amount, the Escrow Agent will, upon joint written direction from Buyer and Sellers’ Representative, holdback $75 from the Escrow Funds, which holdback amount will be released to Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Sellers be liable or

responsible to pay Buyer an amount in excess of $1,050,000 as a result of the foregoing calculation. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Sellers do not make any representation, warranty, indemnity or guarantee of attaining any particular level of Actual Net Revenue Amount.

(d) At the Closing, Sellers shall deliver to Buyer (i) certificates for the Shares duly endorsed or accompanied by stock powers duly endorsed in blank, (ii) all other documents and instruments reasonably necessary to vest in Buyer all of Sellers’ right, title and interest in and to the Shares, free and clear of all Liens, and (iii) all other documents, instruments or certificates required to be delivered by Sellers at or prior to the Closing pursuant to this Agreement.

(e) At the Closing, Buyer shall deliver to Sellers all other documents, instruments or certificates required to be delivered by Buyer at or prior to the Closing pursuant to this Agreement.

2.4 Closing Free Cash Adjustment.

(a) No more than 60 days following the Closing Date, Buyer will prepare, or cause to be prepared, at Buyer’s expense, and deliver to the Sellers’ Representative an unaudited statement (the “Closing Free Cash Statement”), which shall set forth Buyer’s calculation of Free Cash as of the Closing Date (the “Closing Free Cash Amount”). The Closing Free Cash Statement shall be prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) applied on a basis consistent with its application in the preparation of the Balance Sheet.

(b) Upon receipt from Buyer, Sellers’ Representative shall have 15 days to review the Closing Free Cash Statement (the “Review Period”). If the Sellers’ Representative disagrees with Buyer’s computation of the Closing Free Cash Amount, the Sellers’ Representative may, on or prior to the last day of the Review Period, deliver a notice to Buyer (the “Notice of Objection”), which sets forth its objections to Buyer’s calculation of the Closing Free Cash Amount; provided, however, that the Notice of Objection shall include only objections based on (i) non-compliance with the standards set forth in Section 2.4(a) for the preparation of the Closing Free Cash Statement and (ii) mathematical errors in the computation of the Closing Free Cash Amount.

(c) Unless Sellers’ Representative delivers the Notice of Objection to Buyer within the Review Period, Sellers’ Representative shall be deemed to have accepted Buyer’s calculation of the Closing Free Cash Amount and the Closing Free Cash Statement shall be final, conclusive and binding. If Sellers’ Representative delivers the Notice of Objection to Buyer within the Review Period, Buyer and Sellers’ Representative shall, during the 30 days following such delivery or any mutually agreed extension thereof, use their commercially reasonable efforts to reach agreement on the disputed items and amounts in order to determine the amount of the Closing Free Cash Amount. If, at the end of such period or any mutually agreed extension thereof, Buyer and Sellers’ Representative are unable to resolve their disagreements, they shall jointly retain and refer their disagreements to Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx LLP (or, if such firm shall decline

or is unable to act, or has a conflict of interest with Buyer or Seller’s Representative or any of their respective Affiliates) another nationally recognized independent accounting firm mutually acceptable to Buyer and Sellers’ Representative (the “Independent Expert”). The parties shall instruct the Independent Expert promptly to review this Section 2.4 and to determine solely with respect to the disputed items and amounts so submitted whether and to what extent, if any, the Closing Free Cash Amount set forth in the Closing Free Cash Statement requires adjustment. The Independent Expert shall base its determination solely on written submissions by Buyer and Sellers’ Representative and not on an independent review. Buyer and Sellers’ Representative shall make available to the Independent Expert all relevant books and records and other items reasonably requested by the Independent Expert. The parties shall request that the Independent Expert deliver to Buyer and Sellers’ Representative, as promptly as practicable but in no event later than 45 days after its retention, a report which sets forth its resolution of the disputed items and amounts and its calculation of the Closing Free Cash Amount; provided, however, that in no event shall the Closing Free Cash Amount as determined by the Independent Expert be less than Buyer’s calculation of the Closing Free Cash Amount set forth in the Closing Free Cash Statement nor more than Sellers’ Representative’s calculation of the Closing Free Cash Amount set forth in the Notice of Objection. The decision of the Independent Expert shall be final, conclusive and binding on the parties. The costs and expenses of the Independent Expert shall be allocated equally between the Buyer, on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand. Each party agrees to execute, if requested by the Independent Expert, a reasonable engagement letter, including customary indemnities in favor of the Independent Expert.

2.5 Adjustment of Closing Payment.

(a) The Closing Payment shall be increased dollar-for-dollar by the amount that the Closing Free Cash Amount, as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.4 above, exceeds the Free Cash Estimate (the “Free Cash Excess”). Buyer shall pay any Free Cash Excess to the Sellers, in accordance with each Seller’s pro rata ownership interest as set forth on Schedule 3.2 (as to each Seller, a “Pro Rata Share”)

(b) The amount of the Free Cash Estimate shall be decreased dollar-for-dollar by the amount that the Closing Free Cash Amount, as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.4 above, is less than the Free Cash Estimate (the “Net Cash Shortfall”). Sellers shall promptly pay any Net Cash Shortfall to the Buyer.

(c) Payments required under clauses (a) and (b) above shall be made within three Business Days after the Closing Free Cash Amount has been finally determined pursuant to Section 2.4 by wire transfer of immediately available funds from the party owing the funds to the party owed the funds.

(d) Any rights accruing to a party under this Section 2.5 shall be in addition to and independent of the rights to indemnification under Article VIII; provided, however, that no party shall be permitted to recover the same Damages under both provisions. Any payments made to any party under this Section 2.5 shall not be subject to the terms of Article VIII and shall be treated for tax and accounting purposes

as an adjustment to the Closing Payment.

(e) With respect to any Acquired Company Benefit Plan covered by Title I of ERISA, no non-exempt transaction prohibited by Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code has occurred which will cause the Acquired Company to incur a material liability under ERISA or the Code. The Acquired Company does not sponsor or contribute to any “multiple employer welfare arrangement” as defined in Section 3(40) of ERISA.

(i) Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions provided for herein will (either alone or in conjunction with any other event (which event would not alone have an effect described in the following clauses (i) through (iii)) (i) cause or result in any payment, the accelerated vesting, funding or delivery of, or increase the amount or value of, any material payment or benefit to any employee, consultant, officer, director or other service provider of the Acquired Company, (ii) cause or result in the funding of any Acquired Company Benefit Plan or (iii) cause or result in a limitation on the right of the Acquired Company to amend, merge, terminate or receive a reversion of assets from any Acquired Company Benefit Plan or related trust.

There are no pending claims under any of such Policies as to which coverage has been questioned, denied or disputed by the insurer or in respect of which the insurer has reserved its rights.

(b) All premiums due under the Policies have been paid in full or, with

respect to premiums not yet due, accrued.

POST-CLOSING COVENANTS OF SELLERS

5.1 Confidentiality.

(a) From and after the Closing, Sellers will, and will cause its Affiliates to, hold, and will use its reasonable best efforts to cause its and their respective Representatives to hold, in confidence any and all information, whether written or oral, concerning the Acquired Company or the Buyer or the transactions contemplated hereby, except to the extent that Sellers can show that such information (a) is in the public domain through no fault of Seller or any of its Affiliates or (b) is lawfully acquired by Sellers or any of their Affiliates after the Closing from sources which are not prohibited from disclosing such information by a legal, contractual or fiduciary obligation. If Sellers or any of their Affiliates or Representatives is compelled to disclose any such information by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of Law, Sellers shall promptly notify Buyer in writing and shall disclose only that portion of such information which Sellers are advised by their counsel in writing is legally required to be disclosed, provided, however, that Sellers shall exercise their reasonable best efforts to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such information.

5.2 Restrictive Covenants.

(a) Each Seller covenants that, commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the date that is eighteen months following the Closing Date (the “Noncompetition Period”), it shall not, and it shall cause its Affiliates not to, engage in, directly or indirectly, in any capacity, or have any direct or indirect ownership interest in, or permit Seller’s or any such Affiliate’s name to be used in connection with, any business anywhere in the world which is engaged, either directly or indirectly, in the business of developing, marketing or selling any products or providing services which are competitive with products marketed, sold or under development by, or services provided by, the Acquired Company (the “Restricted Business”). It is recognized that the Restricted Business is expected to be conducted throughout the world and that more narrow geographical limitations of any nature on this non-competition covenant (and the non-solicitation covenants set forth in Sections 5.2(b) and (c)) are therefore not appropriate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 5.2 shall not be applicable to: (i) Sellers’ ownership and operation of Group Financial, Network Merchants, TDC Limited, in each case solely in accordance with the current respective business activities of each entity as set forth on Schedule 5.2(a); and (ii) Sellers’ ownership and operating of its existing domain names.

(b) Each Seller covenants that, during the Noncompetition Period, Seller shall not, and it shall cause its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, solicit or entice, or attempt to solicit or entice, any clients or customers of the Acquired Company potential clients or customers of the Acquired Company for purposes of diverting their business or services from the Acquired Company.

(c) Except as may be required in connection with the termination of any Acquired Company employee pursuant to Section 6.4 hereof, each Seller covenants that, during the Noncompetition Period, Seller shall not, and it shall cause its Affiliates not to, solicit the employment or engagement of services of any person who is or was employed as an employee, contractor or consultant by the Acquired Company during such period on a full- or part-time basis.

(d) Each Seller acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 5.2 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of Buyer and constitute a material inducement to Buyer to enter into this Agreement and consummate the Acquisition. Each Seller acknowledges that any violation of this Section 5.2 will result in irreparable injury to Buyer and agrees that Buyer is entitled to seek preliminary and permanent injunctive relief, without the necessity of proving actual damages, as well as an equitable accounting of all earnings, profits and other benefits arising from any violation of this Section 5.2, which rights shall be cumulative and in addition to any other rights or remedies to which Buyer may be entitled. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Noncompetition Period shall be extended for an additional period equal to any period during which any Seller or any Affiliate is in breach of its obligations under this Section 5.2.

(e) In the event that any covenant contained in this Section 5.2 should ever be adjudicated to exceed the time, geographic, product or service, or other limitations permitted by applicable Law in any jurisdiction, then any court is expressly empowered to reform such covenant, and such covenant shall be deemed reformed, in such jurisdiction to the maximum time, geographic, product or service, or other limitations permitted by applicable Law. The covenants contained in this Section 5.2 and each provision thereof are severable and distinct covenants and provisions. The invalidity or unenforceability of any such covenant or provision as written shall not invalidate or render unenforceable the remaining covenants or provisions hereof, and any such invalidity or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such covenant or provision in any other jurisdiction.

ARTICLE VI

COVENANTS OF BUYER AND SELLER

6.1 Public Announcements. Neither Buyer nor Sellers shall, and Sellers shall cause the Acquired Company not to, issue any press releases or otherwise make any public statements with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that Buyer or Sellers may, without such approval, make such press releases or other public announcement as it believes are required pursuant to any listing agreement with any national securities exchange or stock market or applicable securities Laws, in which case the party required to make the release or announcement shall allow the other party reasonable time to comment on such release or announcement in advance of such issuance; provided, further, that each of the parties may make internal announcements to their respective employees that are consistent with the parties’ prior

public disclosures regarding the Acquisition.

6.2 Tax Matters.

(a) Preparation of Tax Returns.

(i) Sellers shall properly prepare and file or furnish to the appropriate Governmental Entity (or cause to be prepared and filed or so furnished) and shall pay in a timely manner all Tax Returns of the Acquired Company for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods. Buyer shall have the right, at its expense, to review and comment on any such Tax Returns.

(ii) Buyer shall properly prepare and file or furnish to the appropriate Governmental Entity (or cause to be prepared and filed or so furnished) in a timely manner all Tax Returns of the Acquired Company both (A) for all Tax periods which begin before the Closing Date and end after the Closing Date and (B) for all Tax periods which begin after the Closing Date and end after the Closing Date. Sellers shall pay to Buyer, within five (5) days of demand by Buyer, with respect to such Tax Returns an amount equal to the portion of such Taxes which relates to the Pre-Closing Tax Period, but only to the extent that such Taxes are not included in the adjustment set forth in Section 2.5.

(iii) Sellers, Buyer and the Acquired Company shall reasonably cooperate, and shall cause their respective Affiliates, officers, employees, agents, accountants and other representatives reasonably to cooperate, in preparing and filing all Tax Returns, including maintaining and making available to each other all records necessary in connection with Taxes and in resolving all disputes and audits with respect to all taxable years or periods relating to Taxes.

(b) Amending Tax Returns. Sellers shall not amend any Tax Returns of the Acquired Company without the prior written approval of the Buyer, which such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(c) Payment of Transfer Taxes and Fees. Sellers shall pay all Transfer Taxes arising out of or in connection with the transactions effected pursuant to this Agreement, and shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Buyer, Buyer’s Affiliates including, following the Closing, the Acquired Company with respect to such Transfer Taxes.

Buyer hereby agrees that the Acquired Company will be included in a consolidated return with Buyer for its first tax year ending after the Closing Date, and for each subsequent year the group must file a consolidated return under the applicable regulations.

6.3 Fees and Expenses. Except as set forth in this Section 6.3, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such expenses, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated; provided, however, that the Sellers shall pay all out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by the Acquired Company in connection with the preparation and execution of this Agreement, including the fees and expenses of any broker or finder set forth on Schedule 3.21 and including all fees and expenses of any other professional advisors to the Acquired Company (whether legal, accounting or otherwise) unless such items have been taken into consideration in the determination of Free Cash.

6.4 Employee Matters.

(a) Acquired Company Employees. Prior to the Closing Date, Sellers will cause the Acquired Company to terminate all of its employees. Sellers will cause Network Merchants to make offers of employment to at least each employee listed on Schedule 6.4 (each, an “Acquired Company Employee”) on terms and conditions reasonably acceptable to Network Merchants and will transfer to Network Merchants all Acquired Company Benefit Plans. Sellers shall remain solely responsible for any and all Liabilities arising under, in connection with or in respect of the Acquired Company Benefit Plans, and all rights and entitlements under such plans and neither Buyer nor any of its Subsidiaries (including, after the Closing Date, the Acquired Company) shall have any responsibility or obligation in respect of any such plan. No assets held in trust for any Acquired Company Benefit Plan will be transferred to Buyer or to any employee benefit plan adopted or maintained by Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries. July health insurance expense, which the Acquired Company has prepaid, relating to Acquired Company Employees who are subsequently hired by Network Merchants shall be a proratable item, but only to the extent that such amounts are not accrued on the Closing Date Balance Sheet.

(b) Tax Documentation. Sellers shall have caused the Acquired Company to provide to each employee of the Acquired Company that has been terminated in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby the appropriate W-2 forms and related tax documentation relating to all amounts received by any employee of the Acquired Company both prior and subsequent to the Closing Date.

Sellers shall be liable for any severance, separation, change of control, deferred compensation, bonus or similar benefits that are payable to any Acquired Company Employee as a result of the Acquisition. Seller shall indemnify Buyer for any claim by Terminated Employees that they are entitled to any such benefits as a result of the Acquisition.

6.5 [Intentionally Omitted].

6.6 Post-Closing Audit and Financials. Sellers shall engage Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Diamond, Ltd., or such other independent auditor acceptable to Buyer (the “Auditor”) to prepare audited financial statements for the Acquired Company for the fiscal years

ended December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2006 meeting the requirements of the SEC’s Regulation S-X (the “Audited Financial Statements”) and unaudited financial statements for the Acquired Company for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2007, meeting the requirements of the SEC’s Regulation S-X (the “Unaudited Financial Statements” and, together with the Audited Financial Statements, the “S-X Financial Statements”) in sufficient time for Buyer to make any required filing of the S-X Financial Statements with the SEC. Without limiting the foregoing, Sellers shall use their best efforts to cooperate with Buyer and the Auditor in connection with the preparation of the S-X Financial Statements and the Auditor shall be asked to deliver the Unaudited Financial Statements and to perform the audit of the Audited Financial Statements and deliver its report thereon addressed to Buyer within forty-five (45) days after the Closing. The Sellers shall be responsible for all fees, costs and expenses of the Auditor in connection with the preparation of the S-X Financial Statements up to $25,000 and Buyer shall be responsible for all fees, costs and expenses in excess of this amount. Sellers shall provide all documentation, answer all questions of the Auditors and respond to all other requests for information by the Auditor as promptly as possible to assist the Auditor in the timely preparation of the S-X Financial Statements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, if Sellers have used their best efforts to cooperate with Buyer and Auditor in connection with the preparation of the S-X Financial Statements and have otherwise fulfilled their obligations under this Section 6.6, Sellers shall not be responsible for the Auditor’s failure to timely deliver the S-X Financial Statements to Buyer hereunder.

6.7 Eligible Domains.

(a) Buyer and each Seller acknowledge and agree that the original registrant of an otherwise Eligible Domain may renew such Eligible Domain during the period between the Closing Date and the end of the Measurement Period, which will preclude the Eligible Domain from becoming part of the Domain Name Portfolio. Buyer agrees that it will, and will cause the Acquired Company to, do nothing outside of its ordinary course of business to influence a registrant of an Eligible Domain to renew its Eligible Domain during the Measurement Period, and will not treat the Acquired Company differently than it treats its other businesses. Each Seller agrees and understands that Buyer is in the business of selling a suite of Internet services and encourages renewal of all services it offers and, therefore, Buyer will not breach this covenant by encouraging a registrant of an Eligible Domain to purchase Buyer’s suite of Internet services, which may indirectly encourage the renewal of the Eligible Domains (and thus not make it an Eligible Domain since it had not expired). Buyer will not sell, assign or otherwise transfer any of the Eligible Domains to any Person who is not an Affiliate of Buyer without the prior written consent of the Sellers’ Representative.

(b) From the Closing Date through the end of the Measurement Period, Buyer shall use, and shall cause the Acquired Company to use, its and their reasonable commercial efforts to maximize the Actual Net Revenue Amount consistent with the Buyer’s normal business practices. Not in limitation of the foregoing, Buyer shall not defer payments or give credits or other allowances to its customers outside its

usual and ordinary course of business for purposes of reducing the Actual Net Revenue Amount.

(c) The parties understand and agree that if Buyer or the Acquired Company fails to acquire an Eligible Domain that meets or exceeds the Per Day Testing Period Net Revenue during the Testing Period and such Eligible Domain is either deleted or disposed of through Snap Names (or a substantially similar service), the ability to achieve the Target Net Revenue Amount shall be unreasonably impaired. During the Testing Period, the Buyer will test each Eligible Domain for its revenue generating capabilities with its then current Search Partner using a methodology substantially similar to the one used by Buyer for testing expiring Domain Names from its own registrar accreditation. At the end of the Testing Period, the Testing Period Net Revenue owing to the Buyer (or the Acquired Company or its designee) from the Search Partner will be divided by the number of days of testing in order to generate the Testing Period Net Revenue per day. If the Testing Period Net Revenue per day exceeds the Target Per Day Testing Period Net Revenue, the Eligible Domain will be a “Retained Domain”.

(d) The Search Partner will be the same as used by Buyer, and the revenue percentage pay out shall be the same as that paid to the Buyer, in connection with generating revenue from its own portfolio.

6.8 Eligible Domain Reporting Requirements.

(a) Buyer will tabulate the results of the Testing Period Net Revenue for each Eligible Domain at the end of the Testing Period for such Eligible Domain and as soon as reasonably practicable after the end of such Testing Period, Buyer shall email such results to the Sellers’ Representative at xxxxxxxxx@xxx.xxx (each, a “Testing Period Revenue Report”). The Testing Period Revenue Report shall contain the following: (i) each Eligible Domain Name, (ii) revenue date, (iii) revenue reported by the supplier of search results, (iv) landings and results and (v) all other metrics provided by the supplier of search results, if any.

(b) Buyer will tabulate the results of the Actual Net Revenue Amount for each Retained Domain on a monthly basis and, as soon as reasonably practicable after the end of each month commencing with the first calendar month ending after the Closing Date and ending with the twelfth calendar month ending after the Closing Date, Buyer shall email such results to the Sellers’ Representative at xxxxxxxxx@xxx.xxx (each, a “Monthly Actual Revenue Report”).

(c) Buyer will tabulate the results of the Actual Net Revenue Amount at the end of the Measurement Period and as soon reasonably practicable after the end of the Measurement Period, Buyer will furnish Sellers with a detailed compilation of the Actual Net Revenue Amount in the aggregate and broken down by Retained Domains (the “Measurement Period Revenue Report”). Sellers shall be entitled to appoint an independent auditor acceptable to Buyer to audit any Measurement Period Revenue Report (a “Net Revenue Auditor”). If the Sellers appoint a Net Revenue Auditor and such Net Revenue Auditor determines that Actual Net Revenue Amount as reported in

the Measurement Period Revenue Report is (i) within 10% of the Net Revenue Auditor’s determination of such Actual Net Revenue Amount, Sellers shall be responsible for all fees, costs and expenses of the Net Revenue Auditor in connection with such audit or (ii) not within 10% of the Net Revenue Auditor’s determination of such Actual Net Revenue Amount, Buyer shall be responsible for all fees, costs and expenses of the Net Revenue Auditor in connection with such audit.

(d) The Monthly Actual Revenue Report and the Measurement Period Revenue Report shall also contain the following: (i) each Retained Domain Name, (ii) revenue date, (iii) revenue reported by the supplier of search results, (iv) landings and results and (v) all other metrics provided by the supplier of search results, if any.

6.9 Further Assurances. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each of Buyer and Seller shall execute such documents and other instruments and take such further actions as may be reasonably required to carry out the provisions hereof and consummate the Acquisition.

The Indemnitor shall indemnify the Indemnitee for all Damages (subject to the limitations set forth herein, if applicable) that the Indemnitee may incur in respect of such claim, regardless of when incurred.

8.2 Indemnification by Sellers.

(a) Seller shall jointly and severally indemnify and defend Buyer and its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Acquired Company) and their respective stockholders, members, managers, officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns (the “Buyer Indemnitees”) against, and shall hold them harmless

(i) the failure of any representation, warranty or other statement by any Seller contained in this Agreement, the Schedules, or any certificate or other document furnished or to be furnished to Buyer in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, to be true and correct in all respects as of the date of this Agreement (it being understood that all materiality qualifications contained in such representations, warranties or other statements including the term “Material Adverse Effect” shall be taken into account under this Section 8.2 solely for purposes of determining whether such representations, warranties or other statements have been breached or otherwise have failed to be true and correct in all respects; provided, however, that once it has been determined that any representation, warranty or statement has been breached or otherwise has failed to be true and correct in all respects as of the date of this Agreement, all such qualifications shall be ignored and not given effect for purposes of determining the amount of any Damages resulting from any such failure and for the purpose of determining whether the Indemnification Threshold has been exceeded).

(ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement of any Seller contained in this Agreement, the Schedules, or any certificate or other document furnished or to be furnished to Buyer in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

(iii) to the extent not already taken into account in the calculation of the Closing Free Cash Amount, any fees, expenses or other payments incurred or owed by Seller, the Acquired Company to any agent, broker, investment banker or other firm or person retained or employed by it in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

(v) any Acquired Company Benefit Plan;

(vi) any Liability relating to the transfer or termination of Acquired Company Employees under Section 6.4(a) hereof or any Liability arising out of or in connection therewith; and

(vii) any liability of the Acquired Company as of the Closing Date which should have been properly classified as a long-term liability under GAAP (except for purposes of this clause (vii), all deferred revenue and unearned revenue shall not be considered a long-term liability under GAAP) on the Closing Date Balance Sheet and was not otherwise used in calculating the amount of Free Cash.

(b) The Indemnitors shall not be liable for any Damages pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(i) unless and until the aggregate amount of all Damages incurred by the Indemnitees exceeds $75,000 (the “Indemnification Threshold”), in which event the Indemnitors shall be liable only for Damages that exceed the Indemnification Threshold.

(c) The maximum liability of Sellers for the amount of Damages under Section 9.2(a)(i) shall not exceed $1,050,000. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in no event shall the limitations set forth in Section 9.2(b) or in this Section 9.2(c) limit Sellers’ indemnification obligations with respect to Fundamental Representations and Warranties, Secondary Representations and Warranties or IP Representations and Warranties or for claims for fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, willful misrepresentation or willful breach; provided, however, that the maximum liability of the Sellers for the amount of Damages for the failure of the Fundamental Representations and Warranties, Secondary Representations and Warranties or IP Representations and Warranties to be true and correct in all respects shall not exceed the Aggregate Purchase Price.

8.3 Indemnification by Buyer.

(a) Buyer shall indemnify and defend each Seller and its Affiliates and their respective stockholders, members, managers, officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns (the “Seller Indemnitees”) against, and shall hold them harmless from, any and all Damages resulting from, arising out of, or incurred by any Seller Indemnitee in connection with, or otherwise with respect to:

(i) the failure of any representation, warranty or other statement by Buyer contained in this Agreement, the Schedules, or any certificate or other document furnished or to be furnished to the Sellers in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, to be true and correct in all respects as of the date of this Agreement (it being understood that all materiality qualifications contained in such representations, warranties or other statements including the term “Material Adverse Effect” shall be taken into account under this Section 8.3 solely for purposes of determining whether such representations, warranties or other statements have been breached or otherwise have failed to be true and correct in all respects; provided, however, that once it has been determined that any representation, warranty or statement has been breached or otherwise has failed to be true and correct in all respects as of the date of this Agreement, all such qualifications shall be ignored and not given effect for purposes of determining the amount of any Damages resulting from any such failure and for the purpose of determining whether the Indemnification Threshold has been exceeded);

(ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement of Buyer contained in this Agreement or any other document furnished or to be furnished to Seller in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(iv) to the extent not already taken into account in the calculation of Closing Free Cash Amount, any Tax imposed on or relating to the Acquired Company to the extent attributable to any Post-Closing Tax Periods.

8.4 Indemnification Procedures for Third Party Claims.

(a) In the event that an Indemnitee receives notice of the assertion of any claim or the commencement of any Action by a third party in respect of which indemnity may be sought under the provisions of this Article VIII (“Third Party Claim”), the Indemnitee shall promptly notify the Indemnitor in writing (“Notice of Claim”) of such Third Party Claim. Failure or delay in notifying the Indemnitor will not relieve the Indemnitor of any liability it may have to the Indemnitee, except and only to the extent that such failure or delay causes actual harm to the Indemnitor with respect to such Third Party Claim. The Notice of Claim shall set forth the amount, if known, or, if not known, an estimate of the foreseeable maximum amount of claimed Damages (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Damages) and a description of the basis for such Third Party Claim.

(b) Subject to the further provisions of this Section 8.4, the Indemnitor will have 10 days (or less if the nature of the Third Party Claim requires) from the date on which the Indemnitor received the Notice of Claim to notify the Indemnitee that the Indemnitor will assume the defense or prosecution of such Third Party Claim and any litigation resulting therefrom with counsel of its choice (reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee) and at its sole cost and expense (a “Third Party Defense”). If the Indemnitor assumes the Third Party Defense in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Indemnitor shall be conclusively deemed to have acknowledged that the Third Party Claim is within the scope of its indemnity obligation hereunder and shall hold the Indemnitee harmless from and against the full amount of any Damages resulting therefrom (subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement). Any Indemnitee shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Third Party Defense and to participate therein, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall not be at the expense of the Indemnitor unless (A) the Indemnitor shall have failed, within the time after having been notified by the Indemnitee of the existence of the Third Party Claim as provided in the first sentence of this paragraph (b), to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim, or (B) the employment of such counsel has been specifically authorized in writing by the Indemnitor, which authorization shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Defense if:

(i) the Third Party Claim seeks, in addition to or in lieu of monetary damages, any injunctive or other equitable relief;

(ii) the Third Party Claim relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation;

(iii) the Indemnitee’s legal counsel advises the Indemnitee in writing that a conflict on any significant issue exists between the Indemnitee and the Indemnitor in respect of the Third Party Claim;

(iv) the Third Party Claim involves a material customer or of the Acquired Company;

(v) the Indemnitee reasonably believes an adverse determination with respect to the Third Party Claim would be detrimental to or injure the Indemnitee’s reputation or future business prospects; or

(vi) the Indemnitor fails to provide reasonable assurance to the Indemnitee of its financial capacity to prosecute the Third Party Defense and provide indemnification in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

(d) If by reason of the Third Party Claim a Lien, attachment, garnishment or execution is placed upon any of the property or assets of the Indemnitee through no fault of Indemnitee, the Indemnitor, if it desires to exercise its right to assume such Third Party Defense, must furnish a satisfactory indemnity bond to obtain the prompt release of such Lien, attachment, garnishment or execution.

(e) If the Indemnitor assumes a Third Party Defense, it will take all steps reasonably necessary in its good faith judgment in the defense, prosecution, or settlement of such claim or litigation and will hold all Indemnitees harmless from and against all Damages caused by or arising out of such Third Party Claim. The Indemnitor will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement except with the written consent of the Indemnitee; provided, however, that the consent of the Indemnitee shall not be required if all of the following conditions are met: (i) the terms of the judgment or proposed settlement include as an unconditional term thereof the giving to the Indemnitees by the third party of a release of the Indemnitees from all Liability in respect of such Third Party Claim, (ii) there is no finding or admission of (A) any violation of Law by the Indemnitees (or any Affiliate thereof), (B) any violation of the rights of any Person and (C) no effect on any other Action or claims of a similar nature that may be made against the Indemnitees (or any Affiliate thereof), and (iii) the sole form of relief is monetary damages which are paid in full by the Indemnitor. The Indemnitor shall conduct the defense of the Third Party Claim diligently, and the Indemnitee will provide reasonable cooperation in the defense of the Third Party Claim. So long as the Indemnitor is reasonably conducting the Third Party Defense in good faith, the Indemnitee will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim, and in the event that the Indemnitee has taken over

the Third Party Defense in accordance with the terms hereof, the Indemnitee will not consent to the entry of a judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to a Third Party Claim, in each case without the prior written consent of the Indemnitor (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnitee shall have the right to pay or settle any such Third Party Claim, provided, however, that in such event the Indemnitee shall waive any right to indemnity therefor by the Indemnitor for such claim unless the Indemnitor shall have consented to such payment or settlement (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If the Indemnitor is not reasonably conducting the Third Party Defense in good faith, the Indemnitee shall have the right to remove the Indemnitor from conducting the Third Party Defense and conduct the Third Party Defense provided that Indemnitee thereupon conducts the Third Party Defense in good faith and keeps Indemnitor reasonably apprised of all material developments and the Indemnitee shall not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnitor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that the Indemnitee has first provided reasonable notice to Indemnitor specifying with reasonable particularity the grounds for removal and providing the Indemnitor with fourteen (14) days to cure (the “Removal Notice”), unless such shorter period is needed to avoid significant prejudice to the Third Party Defense, and Indemnitor has not cured such grounds for removal to the reasonable satisfaction of Indemnitee within such fourteen (14) day period. Indemnitor is only required to provide the Removal Notice once under this Section 8.4(e).

(f) In the event that (i) an Indemnitee gives Notice of Claim to the Indemnitor and the Indemnitor fails or elects not to assume a Third Party Defense which the Indemnitor had the right to assume under this Section 8.4 or (ii) the Indemnitor is not entitled to assume the Third Party Defense pursuant to this Section 8.4, the Indemnitee shall have the right, with counsel of its choice, to defend, conduct and control the Third Party Defense, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnitor. In each case, the Indemnitee shall conduct the Third Party Defense diligently, and the Indemnitor will provide reasonable cooperation in the Third Party Defense. The Indemnitee shall have the right to consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim on such terms as it may deem appropriate; provided, however, that the amount of any settlement made or entry of any judgment consented to by the Indemnitee without the consent of the Indemnitor shall not be determinative of the validity of the claim, except with the consent of the Indemnitor (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Notwithstanding Section 9.6 hereof, in connection with any Third Party Claim, the Indemnitor hereby consents to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any court in which an Action in respect of a Third-Party Claim is brought against any Indemnitee for purposes of any claim that the Indemnitee may have under this Article VIII with respect to such Action or the matters alleged therein and agrees that process may be served on the Indemnitor with respect to such a claim anywhere in the world. If the Indemnitor does not elect to assume a Third Party Defense which it has the right to assume hereunder, the Indemnitee shall have no obligation to do so.

(g) Each party to this Agreement shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate and to cause its employees to cooperate with and assist the

Indemnitee or the Indemnitor, as the case may be, in connection with any Third Party Defense, including attending conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals and furnishing records, information and testimony, as may reasonably be requested; provided, however, that each party shall use its best efforts, in respect of any Third Party Claim of which it has assumed the defense, to preserve the confidentiality of all confidential information and the attorney-client and work-product privileges.

8.5 Indemnification Procedures for Non-Third Party Claims. In the event of a claim that does not involve a Third Party Claim, the Indemnitee shall send a Notice of Claim to the Indemnitor. The Notice of Claim shall set forth the amount, if known, or, if not known, an estimate of the foreseeable maximum amount of claimed Damages (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Damages) and a description of the basis for such claim. The Indemnitor will have 30 days from receipt of such Notice of Claim to dispute the claim and will reasonably cooperate and assist the Indemnitee in determining the validity of the claim for indemnity. If the Indemnitor does not give notice to the Indemnitee that it disputes such claim within 30 days after its receipt of the Notice of Claim, the claim specified in such Notice of Claim will be conclusively deemed Damages subject to indemnification hereunder.

8.6 Contingent Claims. Nothing herein shall be deemed to prevent an Indemnitee from making a claim hereunder for potential or contingent claims or demands; provided, however, that the Notice of Claim sets forth the specific basis for any such contingent claim to the extent then feasible and the Indemnitee has reasonable grounds to believe that such a claim may be made.

8.7 Escrow Fund. At the Closing, the initial $1,050,000 of Escrow Funds shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent to be held and administered by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement. In addition to any other remedies Buyer may have for Damages described in Section 8.2 hereof, Buyer may make a claim against the Escrow Fund for the amount of such Damages by sending a Notice of Claim described in Section 8.4 or 8.5 to the Escrow Agent. Buyer’s recourse to the Escrow Fund shall be without prejudice to any and all other remedies Buyer may have pursuant to this Article VIII or otherwise. Buyer’s remedies for Damages shall not be limited to the assets comprising the Escrow Fund if there are not sufficient funds in escrow available (either because such funds have been released from escrow or because they are subject to other indemnification claims or purchase price adjustment disputes) to satisfy Buyer’s Damages.

8.8 Effect of Investigation; Waiver.

(a) An Indemnitee’s right to indemnification or other remedies based upon the representations and warranties and covenants and agreements of the Indemnitor will not be affected by any investigation or knowledge of the Indemnitee or any waiver by the Indemnitee of any condition based on the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or compliance with any covenant or agreement. Such representations and warranties and covenants and agreements shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of the fact that the Indemnitee knew or should have known that any representation

or warranty might be inaccurate or that the Indemnitor failed to comply with any agreement or covenant. Any investigation by such party shall be for its own protection only and shall not affect or impair any right or remedy hereunder.

(b) Sellers acknowledge and agree that, upon and following the Closing, the Acquired Company shall not have any Liability or obligation to indemnify, save or hold harmless or otherwise pay, reimburse or make Seller whole for or on account of any indemnification or other claims made by any Buyer Indemnitee hereunder. Seller shall have no right of contribution against the Acquired Company with respect to any such indemnification or other claim.

8.9 Other Rights and Remedies Not Affected. The indemnification rights of the parties under this Article VIII are independent of and in addition to such rights and remedies as the parties may have at Law or in equity or otherwise, for (a) fraud, willful misrepresentation, willful breach of warranty or willful failure to fulfill any agreement or covenant, or (b) specific performance or injunctive relief, any or all of which rights and remedies may be asserted at any time, except that Buyer shall not be entitled to the remedy of rescission.

8.10 Sellers’ Representative.

(a) Each Seller hereby irrevocably appoints Xxxxx XxXxxxxx as its sole, exclusive, true and lawful agent, representative and attorney-in-fact (“Sellers’ Representative”) to act for and on behalf of the Sellers, including, without limitation, to give and receive notices and communications, to act on behalf of the Sellers with respect to any matters arising under this Agreement, to agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and commence, prosecute, participate in, settle, dismiss or otherwise terminate, as applicable, lawsuits and claims, mediation and arbitration proceedings, and to comply with orders of courts and awards of courts, mediators and arbitrators with respect to such suits, claims or proceedings, and to take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of Sellers’ Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing. Sellers’ Representative shall for all purposes be deemed the sole authorized agent of the Sellers until such time as the agency is terminated. Such agency may be changed by the Sellers from time to time upon not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to Buyer; provided, however, that Sellers’ Representative may not be removed unless holders of a majority of the Shares as of the date hereof agree to such removal and to the identity of the substituted Sellers’ Representative. Any vacancy in the position of Sellers’ Representative may be filled by approval of the holders of a majority of the Shares as of the date hereof. No bond shall be required of Sellers’ Representative, and Sellers’ Representative shall not receive compensation for his services. Notices or communications to or from Sellers’ Representative shall constitute notice to or from each of the Sellers during the term of the agency.

(b) Sellers’ Representative shall not incur any liability with respect to any action taken or suffered by it or omitted hereunder as Sellers’ Representative while

acting as Sellers’ Representative. Sellers’ Representative may, in all questions arising hereunder, rely on the advice of counsel and other professionals and for anything done, omitted or suffered by Sellers’ Representative shall not be liable to anyone. Sellers’ Representative undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement and no other covenants or obligations shall be implied under this Agreement against Sellers’ Representative; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not act as a limitation on the powers of Sellers’ Representative determined by it to be reasonably necessary to carry out the purposes of its obligations.

(c) Sellers’ Representative shall have reasonable access to information about the Acquired Company and Buyer and the reasonable assistance of the Acquired Company’s officers and employees for purposes of performing his duties and exercising his rights hereunder, provided, however, that Sellers’ Representative shall treat confidentially and not disclose any nonpublic information from or about the Acquired Company or Buyer to anyone (except on a need to know basis to individuals who agree to treat such information confidentially).

(d) A decision, act, consent or instruction of Sellers’ Representative shall constitute a decision, act, consent or instruction of all the Sellers and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon each such Seller. Buyer may rely upon any such decision, act, consent or instruction of Sellers’ Representative as being the decision, act, consent or instruction of every such Sellers’ Representative.

(e) Sellers do hereby jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold the Sellers’ Representative harmless from and against any and all liability, loss, cost, damage or expense (including without limitation fees and expenses of legal counsel) reasonably incurred or suffered as a result of the performance of Sellers’ Representative’s duties under this Agreement except for actions constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct.

8.11 Tax Treatment. Except as otherwise required by applicable Law, the Parties shall treat any indemnification payment made under this Article VIII as an adjustment to the Closing Payment for tax and accounting purposes.
