1.2.2 Excluded Liabilities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Seller shall retain and shall be responsible for paying, performing and discharging when due, and the Buyer shall not assume or have any responsibility or liability for, any of the Seller’s Liabilities, whether or not related to the Business or the Purchased Assets, of whatever kind and nature, primary or secondary, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, known or unknown, and whether or not accrued, not specifically identified as Assumed Liabilities pursuant to Section 1.2.1 including, without limitation, the following Liabilities (collectively, the “Excluded Liabilities”):

1.3 Purchase Price. In consideration of the sale by the Seller to the Buyer of the Purchased Assets and the representations, warranties and covenants made by the Seller to the Buyer, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of all of the conditions contained herein, the Buyer shall deliver to Seller (a) at Closing, Five Million Six Hundred Five Thousand Dollars ($5,605,000) (the “Initial Purchase Price”) in cash, by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the wire transfer instructions set forth in Schedule 1.3; and (b) in accordance with the timing specified in Section 1.4.3, the Earn-out Payment (as defined in Section 1.4.1), if any.

1.4 Earn-Out.

1.4.1 Payments.

(a) Base Earn-out. The Buyer shall pay to the Seller an earn-out payment (the “Base Earn-out Payment”) equal to the product of (a) Actual EBITDA divided by Target EBITDA and (b) the Maximum Base Earn-Out, provided, that such Earn-Out shall in no event be greater than Four Million Forty-Five Thousand Dollars ($4,045,000).

(b) Incentive Earn-out. If actual EBITDA exceeds Target EBITDA, then in accordance with the timing specified in Section 1.4.3, the Buyer shall pay to the Seller an earn-out payment equal to twenty percent (20%) of Actual EBITDA less Target EBITDA (the “Incentive Earn-out Payment” and, together with the Base Earn-Out, the “Earn-out Payment”).

1.4.2 Procedures Applicable to Determination of the Earn-out Payments.

(a) On or before the date which is thirty (30) days after the conclusion of the Measurement Period (the "Earn-out Calculation Delivery Date"), the Buyer shall prepare and deliver to the Seller a written statement (the "Earn-out Calculation Statement") setting forth in reasonable detail its calculation of the resulting Earn-out Payment (the "Earn-out Calculation").

(b) The Seller shall have five (5) days after receipt of the Earn-out Calculation Statement (the "Review Period") to review the Earn-out Calculation Statement and the Earn-out Calculation set forth therein. During the Review Period, the Seller and its accountants shall have the right to inspect the Buyer's books and records during normal business hours at the Buyer's offices, upon reasonable prior notice and solely for purposes reasonably related to the determinations of the Earn-out Payment. Prior to the expiration of the Review Period, the Seller may object to the Earn-out Calculation set forth in the Earn-out Calculation Statement by delivering a written notice of objection (the "Earn-out Calculation Objection Notice") to the Buyer. Any Earn-out Calculation Objection Notice shall specify the items in the applicable Earn-out Calculation disputed by the Seller and shall describe in reasonable detail the basis for such objection, as well as the amount in dispute. If the Seller fails to deliver an Earn-out Calculation Objection Notice to the Buyer prior to the expiration of the Review Period, then the Earn-out Calculation set forth in the Earn-out Calculation Statement shall be final and binding on the parties hereto. If the Seller timely delivers an Earn-out Calculation Objection Notice, the Buyer and the Seller shall negotiate in good faith to resolve the disputed items and agree upon the resulting amount of the Total Premium and the Earn-out Payment. If the Buyer and the Seller are unable to reach agreement within thirty (30) days after such an Earn-out Calculation Objection Notice has been given, all unresolved disputed items shall be promptly referred to an impartial nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants, other than the Seller’s accountants or the Buyer’s accountants, appointed by mutual agreement of the Buyer and the Seller (the "Independent Accountant"). The Independent Accountant shall be directed to render a written report on the unresolved disputed items with respect to the applicable Earn-out Calculation as promptly as practicable, but in no event greater than thirty (30) days after such submission to the Independent Accountant, and to resolve only those unresolved disputed items set forth in the Earn-out Calculation Objection Notice. If unresolved disputed items are submitted to the Independent Accountant, the Buyer and the Seller shall each furnish to the Independent Accountant such work papers, schedules and other documents and information relating to the unresolved disputed items as the Independent Accountant may reasonably request. The Independent Accountant shall resolve the disputed items based solely on the applicable definitions and other terms in this Agreement and the presentations by the Buyer and the Seller, and not by independent review. The resolution of the dispute and the calculation of Total Premium that is the subject of the applicable Earn-out Calculation Objection Notice by the Independent Accountant shall be final and binding on the parties hereto. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be borne by the Seller and the Buyer in proportion to the amounts by which their respective calculations of Total Premium differ from Total Premium as finally determined by the Independent Accountant.

1.4.3 Timing of Payment of Earn-out Payments. Subject to Section 1.4.5, any Earn-out Payment that the Buyer is required to pay pursuant to Section 1.4.1 hereof shall be paid in full no later than five (5) business days following the date upon which the determination of the Earn-out Payment becomes final and binding upon the parties as provided in Section 1.4.2(b) (including any final resolution of any dispute raised by the Seller in the Earn-out Calculation Objection Notice). The Buyer shall pay to the Seller the Earn-out Payment, if any, in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the bank account for the Seller set forth on Schedule 1.3.

1.4.4 Post-closing Operation of the Business. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, subsequent to the Closing, the Buyer shall have sole discretion with regard to all matters relating to the operation of the Business; provided, that the Buyer shall not, directly or indirectly, take any actions in bad faith that would have the purpose of avoiding or reducing any of the Earn-out Payments hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Buyer has no obligation to operate the Business in order to achieve any Earn-out Payment or to maximize the amount of any Earn-out Payment.

1.4.5 Right of Set-off. The Buyer shall have the right to withhold and set off against any amount otherwise due to be paid pursuant to this Section 1.4 the amount of any Losses to which any Buyer Indemnified Party may be entitled.

1.4.6 No Security. The parties hereto understand and agree that (i) the contingent rights to receive the Earn-out Payment shall not be represented by any form of certificate or other instrument, are not transferable, except by operation of Laws relating to

descent and distribution, divorce and community property, and do not constitute an equity or ownership interest in the Buyer, (ii) the Seller shall not have any rights as a security holder of the Buyer as a result of the Seller's contingent right to receive the Earn-out Payment hereunder, and (iii) no interest is payable with respect to the Earn-out Payment.

1.5 Third Party Consents. To the extent that the Seller’s rights under any Contract or Permit constituting a Purchased Asset, or any other Purchased Asset, may not be assigned to the Buyer without the consent of another Person which has not been obtained, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign the same if an attempted assignment would constitute a breach thereof or be unlawful, and the Seller, at its expense, shall use its best efforts to obtain any such required consent(s) as promptly as possible. If any such consent shall not be obtained or if any attempted assignment would be ineffective or would impair the Buyer’s rights under the Purchased Asset in question so that the Buyer would not in effect acquire the benefit of all such rights, the Seller, to the maximum extent permitted by law and the Purchased Asset, shall act after the Closing as the Buyer’s agent in order to obtain for it the benefits thereunder and shall cooperate, to the maximum extent permitted by Law and the Purchased Asset, with the Buyer in any other reasonable arrangement designed to provide such benefits to the Buyer. Notwithstanding any provision in this Section 1.5 to the contrary, the Buyer shall not be deemed to have waived its rights under Section 4.2.2 hereof unless and until the Buyer provides written waivers thereof.

1.6 Closing. The closing of the purchase and sale of the Purchased Assets (the “Closing”) shall take place on April 8, 2015 (the “Closing Date”) and shall be effective as of 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on the Effective Date.

Seller and the Equity Holder further agrees to take commercially reasonable steps, to the extent within their control, to safeguard such Confidential Information and to protect it against disclosure, misuse, espionage, loss and theft. In the event that the Equity Holder or the Seller is required by Law to disclose any Confidential Information, such Party shall promptly notify the Buyer in writing, which notification shall include the nature of the legal requirement and the extent of the required disclosure, and shall cooperate with the Buyer’s reasonable requests to preserve the confidentiality of such Confidential Information consistent with applicable Law. For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” means all information of a confidential or proprietary nature (whether or not specifically labeled or identified as “confidential”), in any form or medium, that relates to the Business or its distributors, customers, independent contractors or other business relations. Confidential Information includes the following as they relate to the Business and, in each case, to the extent the Business obtains a commercial benefit from the secret nature of such information: internal business information (including information relating to strategic plans and practices, business, training, marketing, promotional and sales plans and practices, cost, rate and pricing structures, accounting and business methods and potential acquisition candidates); identities of, individual requirements of, and specific contractual arrangements with, the Business’s distributors, customers, independent contractors or other business relations and their confidential information; trade secrets, know-how, compilations of data and analyses, techniques, systems, formulae, research, records, reports, manuals, documentation, models, data and data bases relating thereto; and inventions, innovations, improvements, developments, methods, designs, analyses, drawings, and reports. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information does not include such information which: (a) at the time of disclosure is publicly available or thereafter becomes publicly available through no act or omission of the Equity Holder or the Seller; (b) is thereafter disclosed or furnished to the Equity Holder or the Seller by a third party who is not known by such party to have acquired the information under an obligation of confidentiality; or (c) is disclosed by the Equity Holder or the Seller (subject to compliance with the applicable provisions of this Section 5.3.1) under compulsion of applicable Law.

5.3.2 Non-Competition. Each of the Equity Holder and the Seller is familiar with the trade secrets related to the Business and with other Confidential Information concerning the Business, including all (a) inventions, technology and research and development related to the Business, (b) customers and clients and customer and client lists related to the Business, (c) products (including products under development) and services related to the Business and related costs and pricing structures and manufacturing techniques, (d) accounting and business methods and practices related to the Business and (e) similar and related Confidential Information and trade secrets related to the Business. Each of the Equity Holder and the Seller acknowledges and agrees that the Business would be irreparably damaged if such Party were to directly or indirectly provide services to any Person competing with the Business or engaging in a similar business and that such direct or indirect competition by any such Party would result in a significant loss of goodwill by the Business. In further consideration for the Buyer’s payment of the Purchase Price under this Agreement (in respect of which payment each of the Equity Holder and the Seller expressly acknowledges that he or it derives a substantial and direct benefit), and in order to protect the value of the Business acquired by the Buyer hereunder (including the goodwill inherent in the Business as of the date hereof), each of the Equity Holder and the Seller hereby agrees that during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the second (2nd) anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Non-Competition Period”), such Party shall not acquire or hold any economic or financial interest in, act as a partner, member, stockholder, or representative of, render any services to, or otherwise operate or hold an interest in any Person (other than the Seller) having any location in any county in which the Business or the Buyer conducts operations, which entity, enterprise or other Person primarily engages in, directly or indirectly, any business that competes with the Business or operates in the hospitality insurance industry; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be construed to prohibit any such Party from purchasing up to an aggregate of two percent (2%) of any class of the outstanding voting securities of any other Person whose securities are listed on a national securities exchange (but only if such investment is held on a purely passive basis).

5.3.3 Non-Solicitation; Non-Disparagement. During the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the fifth (5^th) anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Non-Solicitation Period”), neither the Equity Holder nor the Seller shall, directly or indirectly, either individually or acting in concert with another Person or Persons, (a) request, induce or attempt to influence any distributor, supplier or customer of goods or services of the Business to curtail, cancel or refrain from maintaining or increasing the amount or type of business such distributor, supplier or customer of goods or services is currently transacting, or may be transacting during the Non-Solicitation Period, with the Business or modify its pricing or other terms of sale with the Business; or (b) make any negative, derogatory or disparaging statements or communications regarding the Buyer, the Business, or the Affiliates or representatives of the Buyer.

5.3.4 Severability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if at any time, in any judicial or arbitration proceeding, any of the restrictions stated in this Section 5.3 are found by a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitrator to be unreasonable or otherwise unenforceable under circumstances then existing, the Parties each agree that the period, scope or geographical area, as the case may be, shall be reduced to the extent necessary to enable the court to enforce the restrictions to the extent such provisions are allowable under applicable Law, giving effect to the agreement and intent of the Parties that the restrictions contained herein shall be effective to the fullest extent permissible. In the event of a breach or violation by any Party of any of the provisions of this Section 5.3, the Non-Competition Period or Non-Solicitation Period, as the case may be, will be tolled for so long as such Party was in violation of such provision. Each of the Equity Holder and the Seller agrees that the restrictions contained in this Agreement are reasonable in all respects and necessary to protect the Buyer’s interest in, and the value of, the Business.

5.4 Transition Items.

5.4.1 Transition Collections. The Seller shall promptly remit to the Buyer any proceeds received from any Accounts Receivable that constitute Purchased Assets, regardless of when such proceeds are received or whether such proceeds were obtained as a result of the collections efforts of the Seller. At the reasonable request of the Buyer, the Seller shall make best efforts to assist in the collection of any and all outstanding Accounts Receivable. Following the Closing Date, Buyer and Seller shall review the Purchased Assets and Assumed Liabilities and work together to determine what portions of each are attributable to activity occurring prior to the Effective Date, in such case, to be retained by Seller, or are attributable to activity occurring between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, in such case to be allocated to Buyer.

5.4.2 Transition Expenses. The Seller shall promptly reimburse the Buyer (within ten (10) business days after the Buyer provides the Seller with a xxxx for such reimbursement, with reasonable supporting detail) for any payments made by the Buyer with respect to pre-Closing vendor payments, or any other liabilities of the Business related to any period prior to the Closing Date and which are not paid by the Seller within ten (10) business days after receipt by the Seller of written notice of the Buyer’s intent to make any such payment.

5.4.3 Use of Name. The Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and for a period of one (1) year following the Closing Date, the Buyer shall have the sole right to the use of any service marks, trademarks, trade names, identifying symbols, logos, emblems, signs or insignia related to the Business (including, without limitation, the name “Hospitality Supportive Systems, LLC”) or containing or comprising any of the foregoing, including any name or xxxx confusingly similar thereto (collectively, the “Business Marks”). The Seller shall not use any of the Business Marks, except in connection with the filing of Tax returns or the winding up of the Seller’s business affairs related to the Business.

5.5 Further Assurances. From and after the Closing, the Seller shall use reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable in compliance with applicable Laws to consummate and make effective, as soon as reasonably practicable, the transactions contemplated hereby.

(d) such proceeding shall not involve criminal actions or allegations of criminal conduct by the Indemnifying Party, and shall not involve claims for specific performance or other equitable relief; and

(e) there does not exist, in the Indemnified Party’s good faith judgment, based on the advice of outside legal counsel, a conflict of interest which, under applicable principles of legal ethics, could reasonably be expected to prohibit a single legal counsel from representing both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party in such proceeding.
