Subject to the terms and conditions herein stated, WWG agrees to sell, assign, transfer and deliver to the Purchaser on the Closing Date (as defined in Section 2.2), and the Purchaser agrees to purchase from WWG on the Closing Date, the Purchased Interests.

ARTICLE II

PURCHASE PRICE AND CLOSING

Section 2.1 Purchase Price; Working Capital Adjustment.

2.1.1 Purchase Price. In full consideration for the purchase by the Purchaser of the Purchased Interests, the purchase price (the "Purchase Price"), shall be calculated and paid by the Purchaser to WWG, as set forth below (capitalized terms used in this Article II and not otherwise defined, shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in Sections 2.1.2 or 2.1.3 below):

(a) Closing Payment. At the Closing, the Purchaser shall pay to WWG an amount equal to $11,000,000 ("CP").

(b) Working Capital Payment. If the Closing Date Working Capital, as finally determined pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 2.1.4, is less than the Target Working Capital (such difference being referred to herein as the "Working Capital Shortfall"), then within five business days after the Special Determination (as defined in Section 2.1.4(i) below) and any adjustments thereto shall have become binding on the parties pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 2.1.4, (A) WWG shall pay to the Purchaser 60% of the Working Capital Shortfall and (B) immediately thereafter, WWG, WWG2 and the Purchaser shall contribute to the capital of the Company as a contribution to capital, 39% by WWG, 1% by WWG2 and 60% by the Purchaser, respectively, of the Working Capital Shortfall. If WWG fails to make the payment referred to in (A) above or if WWG or WWG2 fails to make the contribution referred to in (B) above, in addition to any other legal remedies available to it, the Purchaser shall have the right to offset such amount against any future Purchase Price payments to WWG. If the Closing Date Working Capital, as finally determined pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 2.1.4, is greater than Target Working Capital, within five days after the Special Determination and any adjustments thereto shall have become binding on the parties pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 2.1.4, the Company shall make a distribution to WWG in the amount of the difference between Target Working Capital and the Closing Date Working Capital. Any amount paid pursuant to this Section 2.1.1(b) shall be referred to as the "Working Capital Payment."

(c) First Interim Payment. Provided that WWG shall not have validly made a FIP Prepayment Election (as defined in Section 2.1.1(h) below), within five business days after the Annual Determination for calendar year 2010 and any adjustments thereto shall have become binding on the parties as provided in Section 2.1.4 below, the Purchaser shall pay to WWG the First Interim Payment ("FIP"), calculated as follows:

FIP shall equal the lesser of:

(A) $5,000,000

and

(B) {60% x [5.0 x (2009 PBT + 2010 PBT)]} – {CP}

(d) First Additional Payment. Within five business days after the Annual Determination for calendar year 2010 and any adjustments thereto shall have become binding on the parties as provided in Section 2.1.4 below, the Purchaser shall pay to WWG the First Additional Payment ("FAP"), calculated as follows:

FAP = 90% x (2010 Adjusted Profits x 40%)

; provided, however, in the event that 2010 Adjusted Profits is less than the result of (x) $1,833,333 divided by (y) 60%, then FAP shall equal (A) the excess, if any, of (i) 2010 Adjusted Profits over (ii) $1,833,333, multiplied by (B) 90%.

(e) Final Interim Payment. Provided that WWG shall not have validly made a FIIP Prepayment Election (as defined in Section 2.1.1(h) below), within five business days after the Annual Determination for calendar year 2011 and any adjustments thereto shall have become binding on the parties as provided in Section 2.1.4 below, the Purchaser shall, subject to Section 2.1.1(i) below, pay to WWG the Final Interim Payment ("FIIP"), calculated as follows:

(A) In the event both:

(x) (2009 PBT + 2010 PBT) is equal to or greater than $6,333,333

and

(y) 2011 PBT is equal to or greater than {90% x (2009 PBT + 2010 PBT)},

then:

FIIP = {$19,000,000} – {CP + FIP}

(B) In the event

(x) (2009 PBT + 2010 PBT) is less than $6,333,333

(y) 2011 PBT is less than {90% x (2009 PBT + 2010 PBT)},

then:

FIIP = {60% x [4.5 x (2009 PBT + 2010 PBT + 2011 PBT)]} – {CP + FIP}

(f) Second Additional Payment. Within five business days after the Annual Determination for calendar year 2011 and any adjustments thereto shall have become binding on the parties as provided in Section 2.1.4 below, the Purchaser shall pay to WWG the Second Additional Payment ("SAP"), calculated as follows:

SAP = 90% x (2011 Adjusted Profits x 40%)

; provided, however, in the event that 2011 Adjusted Profits is less than the result of (x) the sum of (i) $2,200,000 plus (ii) (FIP times 20%), divided by (y) 60%, then SAP shall equal (A) the excess, if any, of (i) 2011 Adjusted Profits over (ii) the sum of (X) $2,200,000 plus (Y) (FIP times 20%), multiplied by (B) 90%;

; provided further, however, in the event that 2010 Adjusted Profits were less than $1,833,333, then for purposes of the calculations of SAP above, 2011 Adjusted Profits shall be reduced by the amount of such shortfall.

(g) Final Additional Payment. Within five business days after the Annual Determination for calendar year 2012 and any adjustments thereto shall have become binding on the parties as provided in Section 2.1.4 below, the Purchaser shall pay to WWG the Final Additional Payment ("FIAP"), calculated as follows:

FIAP = 90% x (2012 Adjusted Profits x 40%)

; provided, however, in the event that 2012 Adjusted Profits is less than the result of (x) the sum of (i) $2,200,000 plus (ii) (FIP times 20%), plus (iii) (FIIP times 20%), divided by (y) 60%, then FIAP shall equal (A) the excess, if any, of (i) 2012 Adjusted Profits over (ii) the sum of (X) $2,200,000, plus (Y) (FIP times 20%) plus (Z) (FIIP times 20%), multiplied by (B) 90%;

; provided further, however, in the event that the sum of 2010 Adjusted Profits and 2011 Adjusted Profits were less than the sum of (I) $4,033,333 plus (II) (FIP times 20%), then for purposes of the calculations of FIAP above, 2012 Adjusted Profits shall be reduced by the amount of such shortfall.

(h) Prepayment Elections. In the event that changes in United States long-term capital gains tax rates are established which result in either an (x) increase in 2011 long-term capital gains rates from 2010 rates (a "2011 Rate Increase") or (y) an increase in 2012 long-term capital gains rates from 2010 rates or 2011 rates (a "2012 Rate Increase"), WWG shall have the option to elect to receive a prepayment of the FIP (a "FIP Prepayment Election"), in the case of a 2011 Rate Increase, or to receive a prepayment of the FIIP (a "FIIP Prepayment Election"; the FIP Prepayment Election and the FIIP Prepayment Election are sometimes referred to herein as a "Prepayment Election"), in the case of a 2012 Rate Increase, as follows:

(A) To exercise a Prepayment Election, (i) WWG shall deliver notice to the Purchaser on or prior to December 10, 2010, in the case of a FIP Prepayment Election, or on or prior to December 10, 2011, in the case of a FIIP Prepayment Election and (ii) WWG shall have timely and fully delivered the 2010 Financial Information or the 2011 Financial Information, as the case may be.

(B) If a FIP Prepayment Election is validly exercised, then on or prior to December 31, 2010, the Purchaser shall pay to WWG an amount (the "FIP Prepayment") equal to the result of (x) the Estimated FIP divided by (y) the sum of (i) one plus (ii) the MDC Cost of Funds Rate (as defined in Section 2.1.3(vii) below) divided by 4. Within five business days after the Annual Determination for 2010 and any adjustments thereto shall have become binding on the parties pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 2.1.4 below, (i) if FIP (as calculated pursuant to Section 2.1.1(c) above using actual 2010 PBT) is greater than Estimated FIP, then the Purchaser shall pay WWG such excess, or (ii) if Estimated FIP is greater than FIP (as calculated pursuant to Section 2.1.1(c) above using actual 2010 PBT), then WWG shall pay the Purchaser such excess. If WWG fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Purchaser, in addition to any other legal remedies available to it, the Purchaser shall have the right to offset such amount against any future Purchase Price payments to WWG.

(C) If a FIIP Prepayment Election is validly exercised, then on or prior to December 31, 2011, the Purchaser shall pay to WWG an amount (the "FIIP Prepayment") equal to the result of (x) the Estimated FIIP divided by (y) the sum of (i) one plus (ii) the MDC Cost of Funds Rate divided by 4. Within five business days after the Annual Determination for 2011 and any adjustments thereto shall have become binding on the parties pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 2.1.4 below, (i) if FIIP (as calculated pursuant to Section 2.1.1(e) above using actual 2011 PBT) is greater than Estimated FIIP, then the Purchaser shall, subject to Section 2.1.1(i), pay WWG such excess, or (ii) if Estimated FIIP is greater than FIIP (as calculated pursuant to Section 2.1.1(e) above using actual 2011 PBT), then WWG shall pay the Purchaser such excess. If WWG fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Purchaser, in addition to any other legal remedies available to it, the Purchaser shall have the right to offset such amount against any future Purchase Price payments to WWG.

(D) In the event that a Prepayment Election is made, (i) FIP as ultimately determined pursuant to clause (B) above shall be the value for "FIP" and (ii) FIIP as ultimately determined pursuant to clause (C) shall be the value for "FIIP" for purposes of making other calculations of Purchase Price that rely on FIP or FIIP, as the case may be.

(i) Purchase Price Cap. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the sum of the CP, FIP (inclusive of any Estimated FIP) and FIIP (inclusive of any Estimated FIIP) be greater than $19,000,000.

(j) No Negative Payments. In the event that the calculation of FIP, FAP, FIIP, SAP or FIAP, as the case may be, results in an amount which is less than zero, such Purchase Price component shall be deemed to be zero and accordingly, the amount of FIP, FAP, FIIP, SAP or FIAP, as the case may be, included in any Purchase Price calculation, shall be zero

(k) Payment of the Purchase Price. Payment of each component of the Purchase Price and any payment that is required to be made under Section 2.1 above shall be made in United States Dollars by the Purchaser by direct wire transfer to the account of WWG, as set forth on Schedule 2.1.1 (or to such other account as WWG may notify the Purchaser in writing). Each of the FIP, FAP, FIIP, SAP or FIAP (including amounts payable pursuant to the Prepayment Election provisions of Section 2.1.1(h) above), as the case may be, shall be deemed to include imputed interest, to the extent required by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").

2.1.2 PBT. The term "PBT" for any relevant period shall mean the consolidated net income (loss) of the Company and its subsidiaries, if any, before provision for all federal, state and local income and franchise taxes for such period, determined in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied ("GAAP"); provided, however, for calendar year 2010, 2010 PBT shall mean the sum of (x) the consolidated PBT of WWG, TEAM, O-A and Pulse from January 1, 2010 through and including the Closing Date (the "Pre-Closing Period") and (y) the consolidated PBT of the Company and its subsidiaries, if any, after the Closing Date through and including December 31, 2010 (the "Post-Closing Period"); and provided that in making such determinations:

2.1.4 Accounting Procedures.

(i) The Purchaser shall, or shall cause BDO Xxxxxxx LLP, or another independent accounting firm chosen by the Purchaser (the "Accountants"), as soon as practicable after the Closing, to prepare in accordance with GAAP and deliver to the Representative, a report containing a consolidated balance sheet of the Company and the Subsidiaries as of the close of business on the Closing Date and taking into account the transactions effected by the Formation and the NT Conveyance Document (the "Closing Balance Sheet"), together with a statement of the Accountants based upon such report which sets forth the Closing Date Working Capital (the "Special Determination"). If the Purchaser engages the Accountants, the Purchaser shall have the option, in its sole discretion (and at its sole expense) to instruct the Accountants to audit or perform agreed upon procedures on the Closing Balance Sheet and to determine the scope of such audit or procedures. If the Representative does not agree that the Special Determination correctly states the Closing Date Working Capital, the Representative shall promptly (but not later than 30 days after the delivery to him of the Special Determination) give written notice to the Purchaser of any exceptions thereto (in reasonable detail describing the nature of the disagreement asserted). If the Representative and the Purchaser reconcile their differences, the Closing Date Working Capital calculation shall be adjusted accordingly and shall thereupon become binding, final and conclusive upon all of the parties hereto and enforceable in a court of law. If the dispute relates to an accounting issue and if the Representative and the Purchaser are unable to reconcile their differences in writing within 20 days after written notice of exceptions is delivered to the Purchaser (the "Reconciliation Period"), the accounting items in dispute shall be submitted to a mutually acceptable accounting firm (other than the Accountants) selected from any of the four largest accounting firms in the United States in terms of gross revenues (the "Independent Auditors") for final determination. The Closing Date Working Capital calculation shall be deemed adjusted in accordance with the determination of the Independent Auditors and shall become binding, final and conclusive upon all of the parties hereto and enforceable in a court of law. The Independent Auditors shall consider only the accounting items in dispute and shall be instructed to act within 20 days (or such longer period as the Representative and the Purchaser may agree) to resolve all accounting items in dispute. If the dispute involves a non-accounting issue and such dispute cannot be reconciled within the Reconciliation Period, the dispute shall be settled by a court of competent jurisdiction. If the Representative does not give written notice of any exception within 30 days after the delivery to it of the Special Determination or if the Representative gives written notification of his acceptance of the Closing Date Working Capital prior to the end of such 30 day period, the Closing Date Working Capital set forth in the Special Determination shall thereupon become binding, final and conclusive upon all the parties hereto and enforceable in a court of law.

(ii) As soon as reasonably practicable after receiving WWG's Estimated 2010 PBT or WWG’s Estimated 2011 PBT, as the case may be, the Purchaser shall use its reasonable best efforts to review such calculation. If the Purchaser does not agree with WWG's Estimated 2010 PBT or WWG’s Estimated 2011 PBT, as the case may be, the Purchaser shall promptly give written notice to the Representative of any exceptions thereto and provide its calculation of Estimated 2010 PBT or Estimated 2011 PBT, as the case may be (the "Purchaser's Estimated 2010 PBT" or the "Purchaser's Estimated 2011 PBT"). If the Representative and the Purchaser reconcile their differences prior to (x) December 24, 2010 with respect to Estimated 2010 PBT, such agreed upon calculation shall be deemed to be Estimated 2010 PBT for purposes of calculating Estimated FIP or (y) December 24, 2011 with respect to Estimated 2011 PBT, such agreed upon calculation shall be deemed to be Estimated 2011 PBT for purposes of calculating Estimated FIIP. If the Purchaser and the Representative are unable to reconcile their differences prior to (x) December 24, 2010 with respect to Estimated 2010 PBT, then there shall be deemed to be no agreement between the Purchaser and the Representative with respect to such calculation and the Purchaser's Estimated 2010 PBT shall be deemed to be Estimated 2010 PBT for purposes of calculating Estimated FIP or (y) December 24, 2011 with respect to Estimated 2011 PBT, then there shall be deemed to be no agreement between the Purchaser and the Representative with respect to such calculation and the Purchaser's Estimated 2011 PBT shall be deemed to be Estimated 2011 PBT for purposes of calculating Estimated FIIP. If the Purchaser does not give written notice of any exception to WWG’s Estimated 2010 PBT prior to December 24, 2010 or if the Purchaser gives written notification of its acceptance of WWG’s Estimated 2010 PBT prior to December 24, 2010, WWG’s Estimated 2010 PBT shall be deemed to be Estimated 2010 PBT for purposes of Estimated FIP. If the Purchaser does not give written notice of any exception to WWG’s Estimated 2011 PBT prior to December 24, 2011 or if the Purchaser gives written notification of its acceptance of WWG’s Estimated 2011 PBT prior to December 24, 2011, WWG’s Estimated 2010 PBT shall be deemed to be Estimated 2011 PBT for purposes of Estimated FIIP.

(iii) The Purchaser shall prepare, or cause the Accountants to prepare, as soon as practicable after the end of the calendar years 2010, 2011 and 2012, to prepare in accordance with GAAP, a report containing consolidated balance sheets of the Company and its subsidiaries, if any, as of the close of business on December 31, 2010, December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012, and related consolidated statements of income of the Company and its subsidiaries, if any, for each calendar year then ended, in each case together with a statement based upon such report which (x) states that it was prepared in accordance with this Agreement and (y) sets forth the calculation of PBT and Profits for calendar years 2010, 2011 and 2012, and (z) sets forth all adjustments required to be made to such audited financial statements in order to make the calculations required under this Section 2.1.4(iii) (the "Annual Determination"). For avoidance of doubt, the Annual Determination for calendar year 2010 shall include PBT of TEAM, O-A and Pulse for the Pre-Closing Period. If the Purchaser engages the Accountants, the Purchaser shall have the option, in its sole discretion, to instruct the Accountants to audit the annual financial statements for any period and to determine the scope of such audit. The Purchaser shall deliver, or shall instruct the Accountants to deliver, a copy of each such Annual Determination to the Representative not later than 150 days after the end of the period to which such Annual Determination relates; provided, however, any delay of the Accountants to meet such timetable shall impose no liability on the part of the Purchaser.

(iv) If the Representative does not agree that the Annual Determination correctly states the calculation of PBT and/or Profits for calendar years 2010, 2011 and 2012, as applicable, the Representative shall promptly (but not later than 30 days after the delivery of such Annual Determination to the Representative) give written notice to the Purchaser of any exceptions thereto (in reasonable detail describing the nature of the disagreement asserted). If the Representative and the Purchaser reconcile their differences, the Annual Determination shall be adjusted accordingly and shall thereupon become binding, final and conclusive upon all of the parties hereto and enforceable in a court of law. If the dispute relates to an accounting issue and if the Representative and the Purchaser are unable to reconcile their differences in writing within the Reconciliation Period, the accounting items in dispute shall be submitted to the Independent Auditors for final determination, and the Annual Determination shall be deemed adjusted in accordance with the determination of the Independent Auditors and shall become binding, final and conclusive upon all of the parties hereto and enforceable in a court of law. The Independent Auditors shall consider only the accounting items in dispute and shall be instructed to act within 20 days (or such longer period as the Representative and the Purchaser may agree) to resolve all accounting items in dispute. If the dispute involves a non-accounting issue and such dispute cannot be reconciled within the Reconciliation Period, the dispute shall be settled by a court of competent jurisdiction. If the Representative does not give written notice of any exception within 30 days after the delivery of the Annual Determination or if the Representative gives written notification of his acceptance of the Annual Determination prior to the end of such 30 day period, such Annual Determination shall thereupon become binding, final and conclusive upon all the parties hereto and enforceable in a court of law.

(v) In the event the Independent Auditors are for any reason unable or unwilling to perform the services required of it under this Section 2.1.4, then the Purchaser and the Representative agree to select another accounting firm from among the remaining four largest accounting firms in the United States (except the Accountants) in terms of gross revenues to perform the services to be performed under this Section 2.1.4 by the Independent Auditors. If the Purchaser and the Representative fail to select the Independent Auditors as required by Section 2.1.4(i) above within seven days after the expiration of the Reconciliation Period or fail to select another accounting firm within seven days after it is determined that the Independent Auditors will not perform the services required, either the Purchaser or the Representative may request the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. ("JAMS") located in New York, New York, or if JAMS is not so located, in the jurisdiction of closest proximity to New York, New York to appoint an independent firm of certified public accountants to perform the services required under this Section 2.1.4 by the Independent Auditors. The fees of JAMS shall be shared equally by the Purchaser and WWG. For purposes of this Section 2.1.4 the term "Independent Auditors" shall include such other accounting firm chosen in accordance with this Section 2.1.4(v).

(vi) The Independent Auditors shall determine the party (i.e., the Purchaser or the Representative) whose asserted position as to the calculation of the Closing Date Working Capital, Profits or PBT, as the case may be, is furthest from the determination of the Closing Date Working Capital, Profits or PBT, as the case may be, by the Independent Auditors, which non-prevailing party (WWG or the Purchaser) shall pay the fees and expenses of the Independent Auditors and shall reimburse the prevailing party for the portion of the fees of JAMS previously paid by it.

2.1.5 Examination of Books and Records. The books and records of WWG, TEAM, O-A and Pulse (with respect to periods prior to the Closing Date) and the Company and its subsidiaries (if any) shall be made available during normal business hours upon reasonable advance notice at the principal office of the Company, to the parties hereto, the Accountants and the Independent Auditors to the extent required to determine the calculations required under Section 2.1. The Principals, on the one hand, and the Purchaser, on the other hand, shall make available to the other party and their representatives (including auditors) any back-up materials generated by them to support a position that is contrary to the position taken by the other party.

Section 2.2 Closing. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the "Closing") shall take place simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement on the date hereof, at the offices of Xxxxx & Xxxxxxx LLP, 0000 Xxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000 or by the exchange of documents and instruments by mail, courier, telecopy and wire transfer to the extent mutually acceptable to the parties hereto (such date is herein referred to as the "Closing Date").

Section 2.3 Third Party Consents. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event an assignment or purported assignment to the Company or any Subsidiary of any of the agreements, contracts or commitments of TEAM, O-A or Pulse pursuant to the Formation and/or the NT Conveyance Document, as applicable, or any claim, right or benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom, without the consent of other parties thereto, would constitute a breach thereof or would not result in the Company or any Subsidiary receiving all of the rights of TEAM, O-A or Pulse, as the case may be, thereunder, such agreement, contract or commitment shall be deemed not to have been assigned by TEAM, O-A or Pulse, as the case may be, to the Company or any Subsidiary, as the case may be. In those circumstances, if requested by the Purchaser, after the Closing, the Principals will use their best efforts to obtain any such consent (excluding the payment of any fees). If such consent is not obtained and is required to effectively assign any agreement, contract or commitment to the Company or any Subsidiary, WWG and the Principals will cooperate with the Company or such Subsidiary to provide the Company or such Subsidiary with the full claims, rights and benefits thereunder, including enforcement at the cost and for the benefit of the Company or such Subsidiary of any and all rights of TEAM, O-A or Pulse, as the case may be, against a third party thereto arising out of the breach or cancellation by such third party or otherwise, and any amount received by TEAM, O-A or Pulse, as the case may be, in respect thereof shall be held for and paid over to the Company or such Subsidiary.

Section 2.4 Further Assurance; Post Closing Cooperation. WWG will, from time to time, at the request of the Purchaser, whether at or after the Closing Date, execute and deliver such other and further instruments of conveyance, assignment, transfer and consent necessary for the conveyance, assignment and transfer of the Assets pursuant to the NT Conveyance Document. Following the Closing, upon reasonable advance notice, each party will afford the other party, its counsel and its accountants, during normal business hours, reasonable access to the books, records and other data relating to TEAM, the Company and each Subsidiary in its possession with respect to periods prior to the Closing and the right to make copies and extracts therefrom, to the extent that such access may be reasonably required by the requesting party in connection with (i) the preparation of tax returns, (ii) the determination or enforcement of rights and obligations under this Agreement, (iii) compliance with the requirements of any Governmental or Regulatory Authority (as defined in Section 3.1.2), (iv) the determination or enforcement of the rights and obligations of any party entitled to indemnification under Article VII, (v) any actual or threatened action or proceeding, and (vi) the verification of the Assets and Assumed Liabilities (as defined in the NT Conveyance Document).

B. WWG and the Principals, jointly and severally, represent and warrant to and with the Purchaser, as follows:

Section 3.2 Execution and Validity; Existence and Good Standing. WWG has the full corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder and thereunder. Each of TEAM and NT has the full corporate power and authority to enter into the NT Conveyance Document, and to perform their respective obligations thereunder. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by WWG and the NT Conveyance Document by TEAM and NT, and the consummation by such parties of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have been duly authorized by all required corporate action on behalf of such parties. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by WWG and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of WWG, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors rights generally and subject, as to enforceability, to the effect of general principles of equity. The NT Conveyance Document has been duly and validly executed and delivered by TEAM and NT, and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of TEAM and NT, enforceable against each of them in accordance with their terms, subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors rights generally and subject, as to enforceability, to the effect of general principles of equity. The Company and TEAM are each duly organized and are each validly existing and in good standing (including tax status) under the laws of the State of Delaware and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, respectively, with the full power and authority to own their respective property and to carry on their respective businesses all as and in the places where such properties are now owned or operated or such businesses re now being conducted except where such failure to qualify would not have a material adverse effect on the respective business. The Company and TEAM are each duly qualified, licensed or admitted to do business and each of them is in good company and tax standing in the jurisdictions set forth on Schedule 3.2, which are the only jurisdictions in which the ownership, use or leasing of their assets and properties, or the conduct or nature of their business, makes such qualification, licensing or admission necessary.

Section 3.3 Capital Stock; Equity Ownership; No Options or Restrictions; Subsidiaries and Investments. WWG is the owner of record and beneficially has valid title to 99% of the Membership Interests of the Company and such ownership is free and clear of all Liens. WWG2 is the owner of record and beneficially has valid title to 1% of the Membership Interests of the Company and such ownership is free and clear of all Liens. There are no outstanding subscriptions, options, warrants, rights (including "phantom stock rights"), calls, commitments, understandings, conversion rights, rights of exchange, plans or other agreements of any kind providing for the purchase, issuance or sale of any equity or ownership or proprietary interest of the Company, or which grants any Person other than WWG or WWG2 the right to share in the earnings of the Company. There is no suit, action, claim, or to the knowledge of WWG, investigation or inquiry by any Governmental or Regulatory Authority, and no legal, administrative or arbitration proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of WWG, threatened against a Principal or the Company or any of the Membership Interests, with respect to the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the NT Conveyance Document or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any other agreement entered into by WWG, a Principal or the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. Except for the Subsidiaries, the Company does not, directly or indirectly, own any equity interest in or have any voting rights with respect to any Person. Schedule 3.3 lists the full legal name of each Subsidiary and all lines of business in which each Subsidiary is participating or engaged. Each Subsidiary is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, with full power and authority to own its assets and properties and to carry on its business all as and in the places where such properties are now owned or operated or such business is now being conducted. Each Subsidiary is duly qualified, licensed or admitted to do business and is in good standing in those jurisdictions specified on Schedule 3.3, which are the only jurisdictions in which the ownership, use or leasing of such Subsidiary's assets and properties, or the conduct or nature of its business, makes such qualification, licensing or admission necessary, except for those jurisdictions in which the adverse effects of all such failures by the Company and the Subsidiaries to be qualified, licensed or admitted and in good standing can in the aggregate be eliminated without material cost or expense by the Company or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, becoming qualified, licensed or admitted and in good standing. The Company is the owner of record and beneficially has valid title to 100% of the membership interests of each Subsidiary. All of the outstanding equity interests in each Subsidiary have been duly authorized and validly issued, are fully paid and nonassessable, have not been issued in violation of any preemptive rights of other equity interest holders, and are owned, beneficially and of record, by the Company (or Subsidiaries wholly owned by the Company) free and clear of all Liens. There are no (a) outstanding subscriptions, options, warrants, rights (including "phantom stock rights"), calls, commitments, understandings, conversion rights, rights of exchange, plans or other agreements of any kind providing for the purchase, issuance or sale of any equity interests in any Subsidiary, except pursuant to this Agreement or (b) voting trusts, proxies or other commitments, understandings, restrictions or arrangements in favor of any Person other than the Company or the Subsidiary with respect to the voting of or the right to participate in dividends, distributions or other earnings on any equity interest in any Subsidiary.

Section 3.4 Financial Statements and No Material Changes. Schedule 3.4(A) sets forth (a) the consolidated unaudited balance sheets of WWG and its subsidiaries as at December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2009 (the consolidated unaudited balance sheets of WWG and its subsidiaries as at December 31, 2009, hereinafter referred to as the "Balance Sheet") and the related consolidated unaudited statements of income for the calendar years then ended. Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP throughout the periods indicated except as set forth on Schedule 3.4(B). Each balance sheet fairly presents the financial condition of the entity or entities included within such balance sheet, at the respective date thereof, and reflects all claims against and all debts and liabilities of such entities, fixed or contingent, as at the respective date thereof, required to be shown thereon under GAAP and the related statements of income present the results of operations for the respective period indicated. Except for the transactions consummated pursuant to the Formation and the NT Conveyance Document, since December 31, 2009 (the "Balance Sheet Date"), there has been no material adverse change in the assets or liabilities, or in the business or condition, financial or otherwise, or in the results of operations of WWG or the Company.

The Company and each Subsidiary was created solely for the purpose of engaging in the transactions contemplated by the consummation of the reorganizations contemplated by the NT Conveyance Document and this Agreement. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has engaged in any activities other than in connection with its formation, the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement, the NT Conveyance Document and the Operating Agreement, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. Except for liabilities incurred in connection with its formation and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the NT Conveyance Document and the Operating Agreement, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has incurred any liabilities or entered into any agreements or arrangements with any Person. Prior to the date hereof, neither O-A or Pulse conducted any business of any nature (other than general start-up activities relating to the formation of such companies).

Section 3.7 Real Property.

3.7.1 Owned Real Property. None of TEAM, O-A, Pulse, the Company or any Subsidiary own any real property (including ground leases) or hold a freehold interest in any real property or any option or right of first refusal or first offer to acquire any real property.

3.7.2 Leased Real Property. Schedule 3.7.2 contains an accurate and complete list of all real property leases, subleases, real property licenses and other occupancy agreements, including without limitation, any modification, amendment or supplement thereto and any other related document or agreement executed or entered into by WWG, TEAM, O-A or Pulse, as the case may be, and assigned to the Company or any Subsidiary pursuant to the NT Conveyance Document to which the Company or a Subsidiary is a party (as lessee, sublessee, lessor, sublessor, licensor or licensee) (each individually, a "Real Property Lease" and collectively, the "Real Property Leases"). Each Real Property Lease set forth on Schedule 3.7.2 (or required to be set forth on Schedule 3.7.2) is valid, binding and in full force and effect; all rents and additional rents and other sums, expenses and charges due thereunder to date on each such Real Property Lease have been paid; and the lessee has been in peaceable possession since the commencement of the original term of such Real Property Lease and no waiver, indulgence or postponement of the lessee's obligations thereunder has been granted by the lessor. There exists no default or event of default by WWG, the Company or any Subsidiary or to the knowledge of WWG by any other party to any Real Property Lease; and there exists no occurrence, condition or act (including the purchase of the Purchased Interests hereunder) which, with the giving of notice, the lapse of time or the happening of any further event or condition, would become a default or event of default by WWG, the Company or any Subsidiary under any Real Property Lease, and there are no outstanding claims of breach or indemnification or notice of default or termination of any Real Property Lease. WWG, TEAM, O-A or Pulse, as the case may be, held and the Company or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, now holds the leasehold estate on all the Real Property Leases free and clear of all Liens except as set forth on Schedule 3.7.2. The real property leased by the Company and the Subsidiaries is in a state of good maintenance and repair (ordinary wear and tear excepted), adequate and suitable for the purposes for which it is presently being used, and there are no material repair or restoration works likely to be required in connection with any of the leased real properties. WWG, TEAM, O-A or Pulse, as the case may be, was, and the Company or a Subsidiary now is, in physical possession and actual and exclusive occupation of the whole of each of its leased properties. To the knowledge of WWG, no environmental claim has been made against WWG, TEAM, O-A, Pulse, the Company or any Subsidiary with respect to any Real Property Lease. None of WWG, TEAM, O-A, Pulse, the Company or any Subsidiary owes any brokerage commission with respect to any of the Real Property Leases.

Except as set forth in Schedule 3.9, no consent, approval or action of, filing with or notice to any Governmental or Regulatory Authority or other Person is necessary or required under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any Law or Order of any Governmental or Regulatory Authority or any Contract to which the Company or any Subsidiary or WWG, TEAM, O-A and Pulse is a party, or by which their respective assets or properties were or are bound for the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the NT Conveyance Document, the performance by the Company or any Subsidiary or WWG, TEAM, O-A and Pulse of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

Section 3.10 Litigation. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.10, there is no action, suit, proceeding at law or in equity by any Person, or any arbitration or any administrative or other proceeding by or before (or to the knowledge of WWG, any investigation by) any Governmental or Regulatory Authority, pending or, to the knowledge of WWG, threatened, against the Company or any Subsidiary or WWG, TEAM, O-A and Pulse with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or by the NT Conveyance Document, or any other agreement entered into by the Company or any Subsidiary or WWG, TEAM, O-A and Pulse in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, or against or affecting the business or the assets transferred to the Company or any Subsidiary pursuant to the NT Conveyance Document; and no acts, facts, circumstances, events or conditions occurred or exist which are a basis for any such action, proceeding or investigation. None of the Company, any Subsidiary, WWG, TEAM, O-A or Pulse is subject to any Order entered in any lawsuit or proceeding. Schedule 3.10 also sets forth with respect to each pending or threatened action, suit or proceeding listed thereon, the amount of costs, expenses or damages the Company, any Subsidiary or WWG, TEAM, O-A or Pulse has incurred to date and reasonably expects to incur through the conclusion thereof.

Section 3.11 Taxes. Each of WWG, TEAM, O-A, Pulse, the Company and each Subsidiary has timely completed and filed, or caused to be filed, taking into account any valid extensions of due dates, completely and accurately, all federal, state, local and foreign (if any) tax or information returns (including estimated tax returns) required under the statutes, rules or regulations of such jurisdictions to be filed by WWG, TEAM, O-A, Pulse, the Company and each Subsidiary. The term "Taxes" means taxes, duties, charges or levies of any nature imposed by any taxing or other Governmental or Regulatory Authority, including without limitation income, gains, capital gains, surtax, capital, franchise, capital stock, value-added taxes, taxes required to be deducted from payments made by the payor and accounted for to any tax authority, employees' income withholding, back-up withholding, withholding on payments to foreign Persons, social security, national insurance, unemployment, worker's compensation, payroll, disability, real property, personal property, sales, use, goods and services or other commodity taxes, business, occupancy, excise, customs and import duties, transfer, stamp, and other taxes (including interest, penalties or additions to tax in respect of the foregoing), and includes all taxes payable by WWG, TEAM, O-A, Pulse, the Company and each Subsidiary pursuant to Treasury Regulations §1.1502-6 or any similar provision of state, local or foreign law. All Taxes shown on said returns to be due and all other Taxes due and owing (whether or not shown on any Tax return) have been timely paid and all additional assessments received prior to the date hereof have been timely paid or are being contested in good faith, in which case, such contested assessments are set forth on Schedule 3.11. Each of WWG, TEAM, O-A, Pulse, the Company and each Subsidiary has collected all sales, use, goods and services or other commodity Taxes required to be collected and remitted or will remit the same to the appropriate taxing authority within the prescribed time periods. Each of WWG, TEAM, O-A, Pulse, the Company and each Subsidiary has withheld all amounts required to be withheld on account of Taxes from amounts paid to employees, former employees, directors, officers, members, residents and non-residents and remitted or will remit the same to the appropriate taxing authorities within the prescribed time periods. The amount set up as an accrual for Taxes (aside from any reserved for deferred Taxes established to reflect timing differences between book and Tax accrual) on the Balance Sheet (as opposed to the notes thereto) is sufficient for the payment of all unpaid Taxes of each of WWG, TEAM, O-A, Pulse, the Company and each Subsidiary, as the case may be, whether or not disputed, for all periods ended on and prior to the date thereof. Since the Balance Sheet Date, none of WWG, TEAM, O-A, Pulse, the Company or any Subsidiary has incurred any liabilities for Taxes other than in the ordinary course of their respective businesses consistent with past custom and practice. No stockholder, member, manager, director or officer (or employee responsible for Tax matters) of any of WWG, TEAM, O-A, Pulse, the Company or any Subsidiary expects any authorities to assess any additional Taxes for any period for which Tax returns have been filed.

7.2.2 Special Indemnity. Subject to the limitations contained in Sections 7.6.1 and 7.6.2, each of the Principals hereby severally agrees to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnified Parties against, and to protect, save and keep harmless the Purchaser Indemnified Parties from, and to assume liability for, the payment of all Losses that may be imposed on or incurred by any Purchaser Indemnified Party as a consequence of or in connection with, incident to, resulting from or arising out of or in any way related to or by virtue of: (a) any misrepresentation, inaccuracy or breach of a representation or warranty by such Principal contained in Article III.A hereof; or (b) any action, demand, proceeding, investigation or claim by any third party (including any Governmental or Regulatory Authority) against or affecting the Purchaser Indemnified Party which may give rise to or evidence the existence of or relate to a misrepresentation or breach of any of the representations and warranties of such Principal contained in Article III.A hereof or in any certificate delivered by such Principal at the Closing. Any claim for indemnity made under this Section 7.2.2 shall not be construed as a claim under Section 7.2.1 hereof even if the Purchaser Indemnified Party could have made a claim under Section 7.2.1 hereof in respect of the same matters.

7.2.3 "Losses". The term "Losses" as used in this Article VII is not limited to matters asserted by third parties against any Purchaser Indemnified Party but includes Losses incurred or sustained by a Purchaser Indemnified Party in the absence of Third Party Claims (as defined in Section 7.4.2 hereof).

Section 7.3 Obligation of the Purchaser to Indemnify. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7.6.3 hereof, the Purchaser hereby agrees to indemnify WWG and the Principals (individually a "Company Indemnified Party" and collectively, the "Company Indemnified Parties") against, and to protect, save and keep harmless the Company Indemnified Parties from, and to pay on behalf of or reimburse the Company Indemnified Parties as and when incurred for, any and all Losses that may be imposed on or incurred by the Company Indemnified Parties as a consequence of, in connection with, incident to, resulting from or arising out of or in any way related to or by virtue of: (a) any misrepresentation, inaccuracy or breach of any warranty or representation of the Purchaser contained in Article IV hereof or in any certificate delivered by the Purchaser at the Closing; or (b) any action, demand, proceeding, investigation or claim by any third party (including any Governmental or Regulatory Authority) against or affecting any Company Indemnified Party which may give rise to or evidence the existence of or relate to a misrepresentation or breach of any of the representations and warranties of the Purchaser contained in Article IV hereof or in any certificate delivered by the Purchaser at the Closing; or (c) any breach or failure by the Purchaser to comply with, perform or discharge any obligation, agreement or covenant by the Purchaser contained in this Agreement.

Section 7.4 Indemnification Procedures.

7.4.1 Non-Third Party Claims.

(a) In the event that any Person entitled to indemnification under this Agreement (an "Indemnified Party") asserts a claim for indemnification which does not involve a Third Party Claim (as defined in Section 7.4.2) (a "Non-Third Party Claim"), against which a Person is required to provide indemnification under this Agreement (an "Indemnifying Party"), the Indemnified Party shall give written notice to the Indemnifying Party (the "Non-Third Party Claim Notice"), which Non-Third Party Claim Notice shall (i) describe the claim in reasonable detail, and (ii) indicate the amount (estimated, if necessary, and to the extent feasible) of the Losses that have been or may be suffered by the Indemnified Party.

(b) The Indemnifying Party may acknowledge and agree by written notice (the "Non-Third Party Acknowledgement of Liability") to the Indemnified Party to satisfy the Non-Third Party Claim within 30 days of receipt of the Non-Third Party Claim Notice. In the event that the Indemnifying Party disputes the Non-Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall provide written notice of such dispute (the "Non-Third Party Dispute Notice") to the Indemnified Party within 30 days of receipt of the Non-Third Party Claim Notice (the "Non-Third Party Dispute Period"), setting forth a reasonable basis of such dispute. In the event that the Indemnifying Party shall fail to deliver the Non-Third Party Acknowledgement of Liability or Non-Third Party Dispute Notice within the Non-Third Party Dispute Period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have acknowledged and agreed to pay the Non-Third Party Claim in full and to have waived any right to dispute the Non-Third Party Claim. Once the Indemnifying Party has acknowledged and agreed to pay any Non-Third Party Claim pursuant to this Section 7.4.1, or once any dispute under this Section 7.4.1 has been finally resolved in favor of indemnification by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction, subject to the provisions of Section 7.6.1, the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such Non-Third Party Claim to the Indemnified Party within 10 days of the date of acknowledgement or resolution, as the case may be, to such account and in such manner as is designated in writing by the Indemnified Party.

7.4.2 Third-Party Claims.

(a) In the event that any Indemnified Party asserts a claim for indemnification or receives notice of the assertion of any claim or of the commencement of any action or proceeding by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an affiliate of a party to this Agreement in respect of which such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification by an Indemnifying Party under this Agreement (a "Third Party Claim"), the Indemnified Party shall give written notice to the Indemnifying Party (the "Third Party Claims Notice") within 20 days after asserting or learning of such Third Party Claim (or within such shorter time as may be necessary to give the Indemnifying Party a reasonable opportunity to respond to such claim), together with a statement specifying the basis of such Third Party Claim. The Third Party Claim Notice shall (i) describe the claim in reasonable detail, and (ii) indicate the amount (estimated, if necessary, and to the extent feasible) of the Losses that have been or may be suffered by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party must provide written notice to the Indemnified Party that it is either (i) assuming responsibility for the Third Party Claim or (ii) disputing the claim for indemnification against it (the "Indemnification Notice"). The Indemnification Notice must be provided by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party within 15 days after receipt of the Third Party Claims Notice or within such shorter time as may be necessary to give the Indemnified Party a reasonable opportunity to respond to such Third Party Claim (the "Indemnification Notice Period").

(b) If the Indemnifying Party provides an Indemnification Notice to the Indemnified Party within the Indemnification Notice Period that it assumes responsibility for the Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall conduct at its expense the defense against such Third Party Claim in its own name, or if necessary in the name of the Indemnified Party. The Defense Notice shall specify the counsel it will appoint to defend such claim ("Defense Counsel") provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall have the right to approve the Defense Counsel, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In the event that the Indemnifying Party fails to give the Indemnification Notice within the Indemnification Notice Period, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to conduct the defense and to compromise and settle such Third Party Claim without the prior consent of the Indemnifying Party and subject to the provisions of Section 7.6.1, the Indemnifying Party will be liable for all costs, expenses, settlement amounts or other Losses paid or incurred in connection therewith.

(c) In the event that the Indemnifying Party provides in the Indemnification Notice that it disputes the claim for indemnification against it, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to conduct the defense and to compromise and settle such Third Party Claim, without the prior consent of the Indemnifying Party. Once such dispute has been finally resolved in favor of indemnification by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction or by mutual agreement of the Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party, subject to the provisions of Section 7.6.1, the Indemnifying Party shall within 10 days of the date of such resolution or agreement, pay to the Indemnified Party all Losses paid or incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection therewith.

(d) In the event that the Indemnifying Party delivers an Indemnification Notice pursuant to which it elects to conduct the defense of the Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to have the exclusive control over the defense of the Third Party Claim and the Indemnified Party will cooperate in good faith with and make available to the Indemnifying Party such assistance and materials as it may reasonably request, all at the expense of the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right at its expense, which shall not be reimbursable by the Indemnifying Party, to participate in the defense assisted by counsel of its own choosing. The Indemnifying Party will not settle the Third Party Claim or cease to defend against any Third Party Claim as to which it has delivered an Indemnification Notice (as to which it has assumed responsibility for the Third Party Claim), without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, such consent may be withheld for any reason if, as a result of such settlement or cessation of defense, (i) injunctive relief or specific performance would be imposed against the Indemnified Party, or (ii) such settlement or cessation would lead to liability or create any financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party for which the Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder.

(e) If an Indemnified Party refuses to consent to a bona fide offer of settlement which the Indemnifying Party wishes to accept, which provides for a full release of the Indemnified Party and its affiliates relating to the Third Party Claims underlying the offer of settlement and solely for a monetary payment, the Indemnified Party may continue to pursue such matter, free of any participation by the Indemnifying Party, at the sole expense of the Indemnified Party. In such an event, the obligation of the Indemnifying Party shall be limited to the amount of the offer of settlement which the Indemnified Party refused to accept plus the reasonable costs and expenses of the Indemnified Party incurred prior to the date the Indemnifying Party notified the Indemnified Party of the offer of settlement.

(f) Notwithstanding clause (d) above, the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to control, but may participate in, and the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to have sole control over, the defense or settlement of (x) that part of any Third Party Claim (i) that seeks a temporary restraining order, a preliminary or permanent injunction or specific performance against the Indemnified Party, or (ii) to the extent such Third Party Claim involves criminal allegations against the Indemnified Party or (y) the entire Third Party Claim if such Third Party Claim would impose liability on the part of the Indemnified Party in an amount which is greater than the amount as to which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement.

(g) A failure by an Indemnified Party to give timely, complete or accurate notice as provided in this Section 7.4 will not affect the rights or obligations of any party hereunder except and only to the extent that, as a result of such failure, any party entitled to receive such notice was deprived of its right to recover any payment under its applicable insurance coverage or was otherwise directly and materially damaged as a result of such failure to give timely notice.

Section 7.5 Right of Offset. Without limiting any other rights or remedies available to it, the Purchaser shall be entitled to offset any claim for indemnity made pursuant to Section 7.2 and in accordance with Section 7.4, against any payment of the Purchase Price due under Section 2.1; provided, however, the Purchaser may only exercise such right of offset in respect of claims relating to Losses actually incurred by a Purchaser Indemnified Party (in which case the amount of such offset shall be the amount of such actual Loss) or claims actually asserted by a third party (in which case the amount of the offset shall not exceed the Purchaser's good faith, reasonable estimate of the amount of indemnifiable Losses that will ultimately be payable to a Purchaser Indemnified Party in respect of such claims). If any such claims for indemnity are resolved in favor of WWG and the Principals by mutual agreement or otherwise, or if the amount withheld exceeds the amount ultimately payable to a Purchaser Indemnified Party in respect of such claim, the Purchaser shall pay to WWG the excess amount withheld with respect to such claim, together with interest thereon for the period such amount has been withheld at a rate equal to the published prime rate of interest of X.X. Xxxxxx Xxxxx in New York, in effect from time to time during the relevant period.

Section 7.6 Limitations On and Other Matters Regarding Indemnification.

7.6.1 Indemnity Cushion and Cap. Subject to Section 7.6.5, neither WWG nor the Principals shall have any liability to any Purchaser Indemnified Party with respect to Losses arising out of any of the matters referred to in Section 7.2 until such time as the amount of such liability shall exceed $50,000 in the aggregate (in which case WWG and the Principals shall be liable for all Losses in excess of $50,000). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, subject to Section 7.6.5 below, the maximum aggregate liability of WWG and the Principals for indemnity payments under Section 7.2 shall be an amount equal to $11,000,000. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Principal's maximum aggregate liability for indemnity payments pursuant to Section 7.2.1 and Section 7.2.2, subject to Section 7.6.5 below, shall be such Principal's allocable portion of the total Purchase Price paid or payable pursuant to Section 2.1 of this Agreement.

7.6.2 Termination of Indemnification Obligations of WWG and the Principals. Subject to Section 7.6.5, the obligation of WWG and the Principals to indemnify under Section 7.2 hereof shall terminate on April 30, 2012, except as to matters as to which the Purchaser Indemnified Party has made a claim for indemnification on or prior to such date, in which case the right to indemnification with respect thereto shall survive the expiration of such period until such claim for indemnification is finally resolved and any obligations with respect thereto are fully satisfied.

7.6.3 Termination of Indemnification Obligations of the Purchaser. The obligation of the Purchaser to indemnify under Section 7.3 hereof shall terminate on April 30, 2012, except as to matters as to which WWG or the Principals have made a claim for indemnification on or prior to such date, in which case the right to indemnification with respect thereto for such party shall survive the expiration of such period until such claim for indemnification is finally resolved and any obligations with respect thereto are fully satisfied.

7.6.4 Treatment. Any indemnity payments by an Indemnifying Party to an Indemnified Party under this Article VIII shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

7.6.5 Exceptions. Each of the limitations set forth above in this Section 7.6 shall in no event (a) apply to any Losses incurred by a Purchaser Indemnified Party which relate, directly or indirectly, to (i) any fraudulent acts committed by WWG or the Principals; (ii) any breach of a representation or warranty contained in Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.6, 3.11, 3.19, 3.25 or any other provision hereof relating to Taxes, (iii) any indemnification obligation under Sections 7.2.1(c), 7.2.1(d), 7.2.1(e), 7.2.1(f), 7.2.1(g) or 7.2.1(h); and (iv) the obligations of WWG and the Principals set forth in Section 8.1 to pay certain expenses; or (b) apply to any Losses incurred by a Company Indemnified Party which relate, directly or indirectly, to (i) any fraudulent acts committed by the Purchaser; (ii) any indemnification obligation under Section 7.3(c); and (iii) the Purchaser's obligations set forth in Section 8.1 to pay certain expenses.

7.6.6 Control by MDC. All decisions and determinations to be made by the Purchaser and/or a Purchaser Indemnified Party under this Article VII shall be made by MDC in the name of and on behalf of the Purchaser and/or such other Purchaser Indemnified Party.

Such agency and that of any successor representative is irrevocable and coupled with an interest; provided, however, the Representative shall have no authority to act on behalf of any Principal and WWG with respect to an indemnity claim under Section 7.2.2. In the event the Representative refuses to, or is no longer capable of, serving as the Representative hereunder, the other Principals shall promptly appoint a successor Representative who shall thereafter be the successor Representative hereunder and the Representative shall serve until such successor is duly appointed and qualified to act hereunder.
