STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT

THIS STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of April 1, 2015, by and among Apparatus, Inc., an Indiana corporation (the “Company”), Virtusa Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Buyer”), Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx (“Major Seller Shareholder”) and the other persons listed on Schedule 2.2 hereto (collectively, “Seller Shareholders”). Terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning given such terms in Article 7 hereof.

WHEREAS, as described on Schedule 2.2, the Seller Shareholders own beneficially and of record all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company as set forth on Schedule 2.2 (the “Securities”).

WHEREAS, this Agreement contemplates a transaction in which, pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, Buyer will purchase from the Seller Shareholders all of the issued and outstanding Securities and the Seller Shareholders will sell to Buyer, all of the issued and outstanding Securities (the “Purchased Securities”) for the consideration and on the terms and conditions, as set forth below.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE 1
PURCHASE AND SALE OF PURCHASED SECURITIES

1.1 Purchase and Sale. Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, at the Closing (as defined below) and in the amounts and for an aggregate purchase price as determined pursuant to this Article 1, the Seller Shareholders hereby sell, assign, transfer, convey and deliver to Buyer, and Buyer hereby accepts and purchases from the Seller Shareholders, the Purchased Securities free and clear of all Liens in exchange for the Purchase Price (as defined below). For the avoidance of doubt, in connection with such purchase and sale, Buyer shall collectively own, upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, all of the outstanding Purchased Securities free and clean of all Liens.

1.2 The Closing.

(a) The closing of the purchase and sale of the Purchased Securities (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Xxxxxxx Procter LLP, 00 Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxx, XX 00000, at 10:00 a.m. local time on the date of this Agreement, or at such other place as is mutually acceptable to Buyer and the Seller Shareholders. In lieu of an in-person Closing, the Closing may instead be accomplished by facsimile or email (in PDF format) transmission to the respective offices of legal counsel for the parties of the requisite documents, duly executed where required. The date of the Closing hereunder is referred to herein as the “Closing Date” and the Closing will be deemed to be effective as of 12:01 a.m. Eastern daylight time on the Closing Date.

(b) At the Closing, the initial purchase price (the “Closing Purchase Price”) to be paid by Buyer for the Purchased Securities shall be $34,951,254, plus (x) an amount equal to the Estimated Working Capital Adjustment (which may be negative). Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, and on the basis of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein, the Closing Purchase Price shall be paid by Buyer at the Closing pursuant to this Section 1.2(b) in the following order:

(i) at the Closing, Buyer shall deliver, in exchange for the Purchased Securities, the Closing Purchase Price, except as delivered pursuant to Sections 1.2(b)(ii) through (vi), to the Seller Shareholders in the amounts as set forth on Schedule 1.2(b)(i) in immediately available funds by wire transfer to the account of the Seller Shareholders designated by the Seller Shareholders by notice to Buyer (the parties having mutually agreed in in advance for wire transfer, or if not so designated or agreed, then by certified or official bank check payable in immediately available funds to the order of the Seller Shareholders in such amount).

For purposes of this agreement, “Estimated Working Capital Adjustment” shall be equal to an amount, which may be negative, obtained by subtracting the Target Working Capital from the Estimated Working Capital.

(ii) at the Closing, Buyer shall deliver to the payees of all Indebtedness which are required to be paid by the Company as of the Closing Date as specified in a payoff letter or similar letters delivered by the Company to Buyer before the Closing Date) an amount to pay all such Indebtedness with the result that following the Closing there will be no further monetary obligations of the Company with respect to any Indebtedness.

(iii) At the Closing, the Buyer shall deliver to the Company or the Company’s payroll provider, and the Company and the Company’s payroll provider shall pay, the amount of the SAR Plan Obligations that remain outstanding and unpaid on the Closing Date immediately prior to the various payments made by the Company on or before the Closing pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Immediately prior to, but upon the Closing, the Seller Shareholders shall cause the Company to deliver to the payees of the holders of vested stock appreciation rights listed on Schedule 1.2(b)(iii) hereto (“SAR Holders”) pursuant to each SAR Holder’s respective stock appreciation right agreement (collectively, the “SAR Plan”) all amounts due to each such SAR Holder upon the Closing as set forth in Schedule 1.2(b)(iii) hereto (collectively, the “SAR Plan Obligations”), with the result that following the Closing there will be no further monetary obligations of the Company with respect to the SAR Plan Obligations and the SAR Plan shall be terminated and any remaining monetary obligations shall be assumed and borne by the Seller Stockholders. All amounts payable in cash to the SAR Holders upon the Closing shall be paid in immediately available funds, either by wire transfer to one or more accounts designated in writing by the SAR Holders (or through the Company’s payroll practices and all applicable Taxes withheld). The amounts paid to the SAR Holders by the Company shall not be accrued for as a Liability on the Estimated Closing Date Balance Sheet, the Closing Date Balance Sheet or included in the calculation of the

Closing Working Capital. The payments made to the SAR Holders at Closing will be reflected and treated as pre-Closing payments by the Company for all purposes.

(iv) At the Closing, the Buyer shall deliver to the payees of the Company Transaction Expenses to the extent not paid by the Company or the Seller Shareholders prior to the Closing, the amounts specified by the Major Seller Shareholder in writing, and to the Escrow Agent, 50% of the Escrow Fees.

(v) At the Closing, Buyer shall withhold from the Purchase Price and deposit in an escrow account held by XX Xxxxxx Chase Bank National Association (“Escrow Agent”) the amount of 8.5% of the Closing Purchase Price (the “Escrow Amount”), subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 1.7 and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Escrow Amount shall be held for the purpose of the payment to Buyer of the Final Working Capital adjustment amount, if any such payment is required by Section 1.4, and will serve as one source, but not the exclusive source, for the satisfaction of any indemnification or other claims of any Buyer Party pursuant to Article 6 (the “Escrow Fund”). On the date that is twelve (12) months following the Closing Date, any remaining Escrow Amount shall be released to the Major Seller Shareholder or as directed by the Major Seller Shareholder from the Escrow Fund, less the amount of any pending or unresolved claim properly made by Buyer against the Escrow Fund. The Buyer, on one hand, and the Seller Stockholders, on the other hand, shall share the escrow fees equally.

(vi) At the Closing, Buyer shall deliver on behalf of the Seller Shareholders, $50,000 (the “Administrative Expense Amount”) in immediately available funds by wire transfer to an account designated by the Major Seller Shareholder (the “Administrative Expense Account”) by notice to Buyer.

(c) Closing Deliveries. At the Closing, subject to and on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement: (a) the Buyer shall deliver to the Company or Seller Shareholders, as appropriate, each of the documents required to be delivered by the Buyer pursuant to Section 5.2 that has not been delivered prior to the Closing Date; and (b) the Company shall deliver to the Buyer each of the documents required to be delivered by such Parties pursuant to Section 5.1 that has not been delivered prior to the Closing Date.

1.3 Working Capital Adjustment.

(a) Attached hereto as Schedule 1.3(a) is the estimated closing date balance sheet of the Company as of the close of business on the day immediately prior to the Closing Date (“Estimated Closing Date Balance Sheet”), which was prepared and delivered by the Major Seller Shareholder in good faith and in accordance with GAAP and Schedule 1.3(b) and a statement of the amount of Closing Working Capital which Major Seller Shareholder estimates in good faith to exist (the “Estimated Working Capital”).

(b) As promptly as practicable, but no later than 75 days following the Closing Date, Buyer will cause to be prepared and delivered to the Major Seller Shareholder (i) a closing date balance sheet of the Company as of the close of business on the day immediately

prior to the Closing prepared in accordance with GAAP (“Closing Date Balance Sheet”) and (ii) a certificate setting forth Buyer’s calculation of each component of Closing Working Capital, including any adjustments to Estimated Closing Date Balance Sheet to ensure the Estimated Closing Date Balance Sheet and the Closing Working Capital amount conforms to GAAP. “Closing Working Capital” means the Working Capital as of the close of business on the day preceding the Closing Date determined for accounting and tax purposes as if such date were the end of the fiscal year and prepared in accordance with GAAP and Schedule 1.3(b). Buyer will make available to the Major Seller Shareholder and his agents all files and records (including financial statements and work papers) of the Company and all personnel of the Company or Buyer involved with the preparation and/or financial affairs of the Company and/or used in preparing the Closing Date Balance sheet or the calculation of the Closing Working Capital, and any adjustments to the Estimated Closing Date Balance Sheet to ensure compliance with GAAP.

(c) If the Major Seller Shareholder disagrees with Buyer’s calculation of the Closing Date Balance Sheet or the Closing Working Capital delivered pursuant to Section 1.3(b), the Major Seller Shareholder may, within 30 days after delivery of the documents referred to in Section 1.3(b), deliver a written notice (the “Objection Notice”) to Buyer disagreeing with such calculation and setting forth the Major Seller Shareholder’s calculation of such amount. Any such Objection Notice shall specify those items or amounts as to which the Major Shareholder disagrees, and the Major Seller Shareholder (and Seller Shareholders) shall be deemed to have agreed with all other items and amounts contained in Buyer’s calculation of the Closing Date Balance Sheet and the Closing Working Capital delivered pursuant to Section 1.3(b) other than those not directly disputed by which are affected by or relate to the items or amounts in dispute. If the Major Seller Shareholder does not deliver an Objection Notice within such 30 day period, then the Closing Date Balance Sheet and the amount of Closing Working Capital shall be deemed to be finally determined as set forth on Buyer’s calculation thereof.

(d) If an Objection Notice shall be delivered pursuant to Section 1.3(c), the Major Shareholder and Buyer shall, during the 15 day period following the delivery of the Objection Notice, use their reasonable best efforts to reach agreement on the disputed items or amounts in order to determine, as may be required, the amount of Closing Working Capital, which amount shall not be less than the amount thereof shown in Buyer’s calculations delivered pursuant to Section 1.3(b), nor more than the amount thereof shown in the Major Seller Shareholder’s calculation delivered pursuant to Section 1.3(c). If, during such period, the Major Seller Shareholder and Buyer are unable to reach such agreement, they shall promptly thereafter cause the Independent Accounting Firm to promptly to review this Agreement and the disputed items or amounts for the purpose of calculating Closing Working Capital. In making such calculation, the Independent Accounting Firm shall consider only those items or amounts in the Closing Date Balance Sheet or Buyer’s calculation of Closing Working Capital as to which the Major Seller Shareholder has disagreed. The Independent Accounting Firm’s determination will be based solely on presentations by the Major Seller Shareholder and Buyer and the Independent Accounting Firm shall deliver to the Major Seller Shareholder and Buyer as promptly as practicable (but in any event within thirty (30) days of its retention) a report setting forth such calculation (such date, the “Final Resolution Date”). Such report shall be final and binding upon the Seller Shareholders and Buyer. Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller Shareholders, on the other hand (with such fees to deducted from the Escrow Account), shall share in the fees of the Independent Accounting Firm.

1.4 The Post-Closing Adjustment Payments.

(a) Buyer and the Major Seller Shareholder agree that they will, and agree to cause their respective independent accountants to cooperate and assist in the preparation of the Closing Date Balance Sheet and the calculation of the Closing Working Capital and in the conduct of the reviews referred to in Section 1.3 including without limitation, the making available to the extent necessary of books, written and electronic records, work papers and personnel.

(b) If the Final Working Capital is less than the Estimated Working Capital, the Major Seller Shareholder shall, within 5 days after the Final Resolution Date, deliver to the Escrow Agent a notice of the aggregate amount by which the Final Working Capital is less than the Estimated Working Capital with a request to release the aggregate amount from the Escrow Fund.

(c) If the Final Working Capital exceeds the Estimated Working Capital, Buyer shall, within 5 days after the Final Resolution Date, deliver to the Major Seller Shareholder, on behalf of the Seller Shareholders, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by the Major Seller Shareholder, the amount by which the Final Working Capital exceeds the Estimated Working Capital. “Final Working Capital” means Closing Working Capital as shown in Buyer’s calculation delivered pursuant to Section 1.3(b), if no Objection Notice with respect thereto is duly delivered pursuant to Section 1.3(c); or, if an Objection Notice is delivered, as agreed by Buyer and the Major Seller Shareholder pursuant to Section 1.3(d) or in the absence of such agreement, as shown in the Independent Accounting Firm’s calculation delivered pursuant to Section 1.3(d); provided that, in no event shall Final Working Capital be less than Buyer’s calculation of Closing Working Capital delivered pursuant to Section 1.3(b), or more than the Major Seller Shareholder’s calculation of Closing Working Capital delivered pursuant to Section 1.3(c).

1.5 Intentionally Omitted.

1.6 Post-Closing Allocations; Earn-out.

(a) Allocation. No later than ninety (90) days after the Closing, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to the Major Seller Shareholder a proposed schedule computing the “aggregate deemed sales price” (as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.338-4(b)), the “aggregate grossed-up basis” (as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.338-5(b)) and the allocation among the assets of the Company and all other relevant items for purposes of Section 338 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Allocation”). For purposes of the Allocation, the non-compete covenant in Section 4.3 shall not be valued separately from goodwill or other intangibles. The Major Seller Shareholder shall have fifteen (15) days from the date such Allocation is provided by Buyer to provide comments to Buyer on such Allocation. If the Major Seller Shareholder does not respond by the end of such fifteen (15) day period, the Major Seller Shareholder shall be deemed to have agreed with such Allocation. In the event the Major Seller Shareholder disagrees with the proposed allocation, Buyer and the Major Seller Shareholder agree to negotiate in good faith to determine the allocation hereunder within ten (10) days from the date on which the Major Seller Shareholder notified Buyer of such

disagreement. Any issues with respect to the allocations under this Section which have not been resolved by the Parties within such ten (10) day period shall be referred to the Independent Accounting Firm whose determination shall be final and binding upon the Parties. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be shared equally by Buyer, on one hand, and the Seller Shareholders, on the other hand. Each of Buyer and the Seller Shareholders shall timely file IRS Form 8883 in accordance with the Allocation within the applicable statutory time limits and shall file all other Tax Returns in a manner consistent with such IRS Form 8883. Neither Buyer nor the Company shall take any position for Tax purposes (whether in audits, Tax Returns, or otherwise) that is inconsistent with such final IRS Form 8883 unless otherwise required by applicable law.

(b) Earn-Out Statement. Promptly, but in any event within sixty days (60) calendar days after the end of the date which is 12 full calendar months after the Closing Date (the “Earn-out Period”), Buyer shall in good faith prepare or cause to be prepared and furnished to the Major Seller Shareholder a written statement (the “Earn-Out Statement”) setting forth its calculation of the Revenue Earn-out and EBITDA Earn-out (each as defined on Schedule 1.6(b)), in each case, prepared in accordance with Schedule 1.6(b) hereto for the Earn-out Period. Following receipt of the Earn-Out Statement for the Earn-out Period, the Major Seller Shareholder shall be afforded a period of thirty (30) calendar days to review the Buyer’s calculation of the Revenue Earn-out and EBITDA Earn-out. At or before the end of the thirty (30) day review period, the Major Seller Shareholder shall either (i) accept the Earn-Out Statement in its entirety or (ii) deliver to the Buyer a written notice (a “Dispute Notice”) setting forth a detailed explanation of those items in or omitted from the Earn-Out Statement that the Major Seller Shareholder disputes, including the amount thereof (each, an “Item of Dispute”); provided, that the only basis on which the Major Seller Shareholder shall be permitted to submit an Item of Dispute is if such Item of Dispute was not prepared in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and Schedule 1.6(b) or contains a mathematical or clerical error or other errors. If the Major Seller Shareholder does not deliver a Dispute Notice to the Buyer within the thirty (30) day review period, the Major Seller Shareholder (and Seller Shareholders) shall be deemed to have accepted the Earn-Out Statement in its entirety. If the Major Seller Shareholder delivers a Notice of Dispute in which some, but not all, of the items in the Earn-Out Statement are properly disputed, the Major Seller Shareholder (and the Seller Shareholders) shall be deemed to have accepted all of the items not disputed other than those not directly disputed but which are affected by or relate to an Item of Dispute. The Parties shall and shall cause their respective Affiliates to cooperate fully with Buyer in connection with the preparation of the Earn-Out Statement. After the delivery of the Earn-Out Statement, Buyer shall cooperate with the Major Seller Shareholder and his representatives in connection with his review of the Earn-Out Statement, including by providing the Major Seller Shareholder and his agents reasonable access during business hours to the files and records of the Company and Buyer (including the financial statements and materials used in the preparation of the Earn-Out Statement) and access to personnel of Buyer and/or the Company who assisted in the preparation of the Earn-Out Statement.

(c) Company Revenue Record Retention. During the Earn-out Period and for one (1) year thereafter, Buyer shall keep, and shall cause the Company and their respective Affiliates to keep, complete and accurate books and records of all Revenue Earn-out and EBITDA Earn-out matters. Upon the written request of the Major Seller Shareholder, Buyer

shall permit, and shall cause the Company and their respective Affiliates to permit, at the expense of the Major Seller Shareholder, an independent certified public accounting firm, selected by the Major Seller Shareholder and reasonably acceptable to the Buyer, to have access during normal business hours to such of the records of the Buyer and the Company as may be reasonably necessary to verify the Revenue Earn-out and EBITDA Earn-out matters; provided, however, that such accounting firm has entered into a confidentiality agreement in reasonably customary form and substance with the Buyer.

(d) Dispute Resolution by the Parties. If the Major Seller Shareholder delivers a Dispute Notice to Buyer within the required thirty (30) day period set forth in Section 1.6(b), Buyer and the Major Seller Shareholder shall use reasonable best efforts to resolve their differences concerning the Items of Dispute, and if any Item of Dispute is so resolved, the Earn-Out Statement shall be modified as necessary to reflect such resolution. If all Items of Dispute are so resolved, the Earn-Out Statement (as so modified) shall be conclusive and binding on all Parties.

(e) Determination by Independent Accounting Firm. If any Item of Dispute remains unresolved for a period of fifteen (15) days after Buyer’s receipt of a Dispute Notice, then either the Buyer or the Major Seller Shareholder may, within fifteen (15) days thereafter, submit the outstanding Items of Dispute to the Independent Accounting Firm. Buyer and the Major Seller Shareholder shall each provide their respective calculations of the Revenue Earn-out and the EBITDA Earn-out and the Items of Dispute in writing to the Independent Accounting Firm and shall request that the Independent Accounting Firm render a written determination, which determination (i) shall be based solely on whether each such Item of Dispute was prepared in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and Schedule 1.6(b) or whether each such Item of Dispute contains a mathematical or clerical error or other errors and (ii) shall not be resolved so the final amount determined by the Independent Accounting Firm is more favorable to the Major Seller Shareholder than the calculation(s) presented in any Item of Dispute delivered by the Major Seller Shareholder or more favorable to the Buyer than the calculation(s) presented in any Item of Dispute delivered by Buyer, as to each unresolved Item of Dispute as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after its retention, and the Parties shall cooperate fully with the Independent Accounting Firm so as to enable it to make such determination as quickly and as accurately as practicable. The Independent Accounting Firm’s determination as to each Item of Dispute submitted to it shall be in writing and shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties, absent fraud, manifest error or willful misconduct, and the Revenue Earn-out and/or EBITDA Earn-out shall be modified to the extent necessary to reflect such determination. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be shared equally by the Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller Shareholders, on the other hand (and Seller Shareholders’ allocation of the fees and expenses may be deducted from the Escrow Amount).

(f) Final Revenue Earn-out and EBITDA Earn-out. The Revenue Earn-out and EBITDA Earn-out shall be deemed final for the purposes of Section 1.6(b) upon the earliest of (x) the failure of the Major Seller Shareholder to provide Buyer with a Dispute Notice within thirty (30) days of the Buyer’s delivery of the Earn-Out Statement, (y) the resolution of all Items of Dispute pursuant to Section 1.6(d) by the Seller Shareholder and the Buyer and (z) the resolution of all Items of Dispute, pursuant to Section 1.6(e), by the Independent Accounting

Firm. Upon the final determination of the Revenue Earn-out and EBITDA Earn-out as set forth in this paragraph, Buyer shall adjust, if applicable, the Earn-Out Statement accordingly and such adjusted Earn-Out Statement shall be deemed final.

(g) Purchase Price Adjustment. Subject to and in accordance with Schedule 1.6(b), if the amount of the Revenue Earn-out or EBITDA Earn-out as reflected on the final Earn-Out Statement is equal to or greater than 90% of the Revenue Earn-out Target or 90% of the EBITDA Earn-out Target, as the case may be, as set forth on Schedule 1.6(b) such that additional amounts are owed to the Seller Shareholders, the Purchase Price shall be adjusted upward by the amounts as set forth in and subject to the terms and conditions of Schedule 1.6(b) and this Agreement (“Earn-out Amount”).

(h) Payment of Earn-out Amount. The payment of the applicable Earn-out Amount (as defined in Schedule 1.6(b)) for the Earn-out Period, if any, payable by Buyer to the Seller Shareholders pursuant to this Section 1.6 and Schedule 1.6(b) hereto shall be paid in cash to the Seller Shareholders in accordance with the percentages set forth on Schedule 1.2(b)(i) in immediately available funds by wire transfer within ten (10) Business Days after the Earn-Out Statement is deemed final pursuant to Section 1.6(f); provided, however, that the portion of the Earn-out Amount not subject to dispute shall be paid within ten (10) Business Days after delivery of the Dispute Notice or acceptance by the Major Seller Shareholder of the Earn-Out Statement. Any additional amounts paid pursuant to Section 1.6(g) shall be treated as additional Purchase Price hereunder.

(i) Financial Information; Conduct. During the Earn-out Period, Buyer will, and will cause the Company to, (A) account for the businesses of the Company as a separate accounting entity and such accounting shall include the operations of VIBU (as defined in Schedule 1.6(b)); (B) use its reasonable efforts to maintain good relationships with the customers and suppliers of the Company; (C) deliver to the Major Seller Shareholder within forty-five (45) days after the end of each quarter containing the Earn-out Period an unaudited statement of income and a calculation of EBITDA in accordance with GAAP (which financials shall include the operations of VIBU) (which will not be audited and will not contain any notes); and (D) be operated in a manner consistent with the general practices of the Buyer with respect to its Subsidiaries or operating divisions (including VIBU).

1.7 Escrow Amount Adjustments. To the extent that Buyer is required to make payments to the Seller Shareholders pursuant to Sections 1.4, then the Escrow Amount shall be proportionately adjusted by Buyer in connection with any post-closing adjustments to the Purchase Price made pursuant to Sections 1.4, such that following any such payments the Escrow Amount shall equal eight and half percent (8.5%) of the Closing Purchase Price as adjusted pursuant to Section 1.4.

(a) All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, notaries fees and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement (including any gains tax, transfer tax and any similar tax imposed in any state or subdivisions), shall be borne and paid by the Seller Shareholders. The Company will file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other Taxes and fees, and, if required by applicable law, the Seller Shareholders, the Company and Buyer will, and will cause their respective Affiliates to, join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation; provided that any expenses of the Company pursuant to this Section 4.2(a) shall be paid by the Seller Shareholders.

(b) The Seller Shareholders, at their sole cost and expense, shall prepare and timely file all income Tax Returns, other than those income Tax Returns that could give rise to an entity level Tax, of the Company for any Pre-Closing Tax Period that are required to be filed after the Closing Date (including the IRS Form 1120S for the Company and any comparable state and local Tax Returns) (the “S Corporation Returns”). Each S Corporation Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past Tax Returns in accordance with existing procedures, practices and accounting methods of the Company except as required by applicable Legal Requirements. The Major Seller Shareholder shall provide any such S Corporation Return due after the Closing Date to the Buyer at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date for filing such S Corporation Return (taking into account any applicable extensions) and shall incorporate any comments reasonably requested by the Buyer on such S Corporation Returns prior to filing. If the Major Seller Shareholder, on one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, are unable to agree on any comments requested by Buyer, the disputed issues shall be submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm whose determination shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the parties and whose costs shall be borne equally by Buyer, on the one hand, and the Seller Shareholders on the other. To the extent it is necessary for the Buyer to cause the Company to file any S Corporation Return prepared by the Seller Shareholders, the Buyer shall cause the Company to file such S Corporation Return prepared by the Seller Shareholders and timely delivered to the Buyer in accordance with this Section 4.2(b) and the Seller Shareholders shall pay to Buyer the amount of Taxes with respect to such Tax Returns fifteen (15) days prior to such filing by Buyer. Except as required by Legal Requirements, without the prior written consent of the Major Seller

Shareholder, which consent shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld, Buyer, the Company, and their Affiliates will not, and Buyer will not permit any of the foregoing to, amend any S Corporation Return described in this Section 4.2(b) or any Tax Return of the Company that was filed prior to the Closing Date.

(c) Buyer shall prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, all Tax Returns (other than the S Corporation Returns) required to be filed for the Company for Pre-Closing Tax Periods and Straddle Periods (the “Buyer Prepared Returns”). To the extent that a Buyer Prepared Return relates solely to a taxable period ending on or prior to the Closing Date, such Buyer Prepared Return shall be prepared, at the Seller Shareholders’ expense, consistent with past practice of the Company in accordance with existing procedures, practices and accounting methods, except to the extent required by applicable Legal Requirements. Buyer shall provide a copy of the Buyer Prepared Returns to the Major Seller Shareholder at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date for filing such Tax Returns (taking into account any applicable extensions) to allow the Major Seller Shareholder to review and comment on such Tax Returns, and shall incorporate any reasonable comments requested by the Major Seller Shareholder on such Buyer Prepared Returns prior to filing. Seller Shareholders shall pay to Buyer the amount of Taxes with respect to such Tax Returns for which they are responsible pursuant to Section 6.2(a)(iii). Except as required by Legal Requirements, without the prior written consent of the Major Seller Shareholder, which consent shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld, Buyer, the Company and their Affiliates shall not, and Buyer shall not permit any of the foregoing to, amend, refile or modify any Tax Return described in this Section 4.2(c) if such amendment, refiling or modification could reasonably be expected to give rise to an indemnification obligation of the Seller Shareholders under this agreement.

(d) In the case of Taxes of the Company that are payable with respect to any Straddle Period, the portion of any such Tax that is allocable to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall include the following: (i) in the case of any Taxes based upon or measured by income, gain or receipts, sales or use, or payroll Taxes of the Company, the amount of such Tax which would be payable if the relevant Taxable period actually ended at the end of the day on the Closing Date based on an interim closing of the books and (ii) in the case of any other Taxes, the amount of such Tax for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period prior to and including the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Straddle Period. Except as otherwise required by Legal Requirements, the Company Transaction Expenses shall be allocable to and treated solely as income Tax deductions of the Company for the Tax year or portion of the Straddle Period that ends on the Closing Date.

(e) The amount of any Tax due from Seller Shareholders pursuant to Section 4.2(b) and Section 4.2(c), shall be reduced to the extent such Tax was reflected as an accrual, reserve or liability in the Final Working Capital. In addition, Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Seller Shareholders for any increase in income tax liability of the Seller Shareholders that is attributable to income or gain realized by the Company on the Closing Date after the Closing that is outside of the ordinary course of business other than Taxes imposed as a result of the Section 338(h)(10) Election.

(f) Buyer shall file or cause to be filed all Tax Returns for the Company that are required to be filed, and pay or cause to be paid, all Taxes that are required to be paid by or with respect to the income, assets or operations of the Company for any Tax period beginning after the Closing Date (the “Post-Closing Tax Period”).

(g) After the Closing, any Tax refunds or credits for overpayment of Taxes (including any interest paid or credited with respect thereto) of, or with respect to, the Company that are attributable or allocable to any Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be for the account of the Seller Shareholders. Buyer will or will cause the Company to use reasonable efforts to promptly inform the Major Seller Shareholder of any refunds or credits for overpayment to which the Seller Shareholders is entitled hereunder Buyer shall control (at the Major Seller Shareholder’s expense) the prosecution and content of any such refund or credit claim (including, but not limited to, any position to be taken on such claim). Buyer shall pay over to the Seller Shareholders any such refund or the amount of any such credit (net of any cost to Buyer and its Affiliates attributable to the obtaining and receipt of such refund or credit) within ten (10) calendar days after receipt thereof or entitlement thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such refund or credit for overpayment shall be for the account of Buyer to the extent such refund or credit is attributable (determined on a marginal basis) to the carryback from a Post-Closing Tax Period of items of loss, deduction or credit, or other Tax items, of the Company (or any of its respective Affiliates, including Buyer). To the extent such refund (or credit) is subsequently disallowed or required to be returned to the applicable Governmental Entity, the Seller Shareholders agree to promptly repay the amount of such refund (or credit), together with any interest, penalties or other additional amounts imposed by such Governmental Entity, to Buyer.

(h) Buyer, the Company and their Affiliates, on one hand, and the Major Seller Shareholder, on the other hand, will promptly (and in any event, within ten (10) days) notify the other party in writing upon receipt by any of the foregoing of any inquiries, claims, assessments, audits, examinations, or similar events with respect to Tax Returns of the Company for any Tax period beginning before the Closing or with respect to Taxes for which any of the Seller Shareholders could be liable under this Agreement (any such inquiry, claim, assessment, audit or similar event, a “Tax Matter”); provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the indemnifying party has been materially prejudiced as a result of such failure. The Major Seller Shareholder shall be entitled to control the defense of any such Tax Matter related to the Company before any Governmental Entity that relates solely to an S Corporation Return, provided, however, that Buyer, at Buyer’s cost and expense, shall have the right to participate in and be reasonably informed of the progress of any Tax Matter controlled by the Major Seller Shareholder, and the Major Seller Shareholder shall not settle or compromise any such Tax Matter without obtaining Buyer’s prior written consent thereto, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Buyer shall be entitled to control the defense of any other Tax Matter related to the Company before any Governmental Entity, provided, however, that the Major Selling Shareholder, at the Major Selling Shareholder’s cost and expense, shall have the right to participate in and be reasonably informed of the progress of any Tax Matter controlled by the Buyer, and the Buyer shall not settle or compromise any such Tax Matter without obtaining the Major Selling Shareholder’s prior written consent thereto, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If the Buyer does not elect to control the defense of such a Tax Matter, the Major Seller Shareholder may control the defense of such Tax

Matter but shall keep the Buyer informed of the progress of such Tax Matter, and the Buyer shall be entitled to participate in such Tax Matter relating to the Company (including through participation in meetings and conference calls with the relevant Governmental Entity, receipt of copies of correspondence relating to such Tax Matter and the right to review and comment on any submissions to be made to any Governmental Entity in connection with such Tax Matter); provided, further, that no settlement shall be agreed to without the prior written consent of the Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Any indemnification Proceedings relating to Tax Matters shall be governed solely by this Section 4.2(h) and not by Article VI.

(i) The Company and Buyer shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Section 4.2 and any audit, litigation, or other matter with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the maintenance and retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation, or other proceeding or matter, including information necessary for Buyer to evaluate the making of the Section 338(h)(10) Election, and making employees reasonably available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.

(j) Buyer and the Seller Shareholders shall jointly make an election under Code Section 338(h)(10) (and any corresponding election under state, local, and non-U.S. Tax Legal Requirements) with respect to the purchase and sale of the Purchased Securities hereunder (collectively a “Section 338(h)(10) Election”), and shall cooperate with each other and take all actions necessary and appropriate (including the execution and filing of Tax forms and such other documents as may be required) to effect and preserve a timely election. At the Closing, the Seller Shareholders and the Buyer shall exchange properly executed IRS Forms 8023 in connection with the purchase and sale of the Purchased Securities and any applicable state or local forms in a form reasonably acceptable to Buyer. The Seller Shareholders shall include any income, gain, loss, deduction, or other tax item resulting from the Section 338(h)(10) Election on their Tax Returns to the extent required by applicable Legal Requirements and shall be responsible for any Tax imposed on the Company attributable to the making of the Section 338(h)(10) Election (“Company 338(h)(10) Taxes”), including (i) any Tax imposed under Code Section 1374, (ii) any Tax imposed under Reg. Section 1.338(h)(10)-1(d)(2), or (iii) any state, local, or non-U.S. Tax imposed on the Company’s gain.

(k) The Company and Seller Shareholders shall not revoke the Company’s election to be taxed as an S corporation within the meaning of Code Sections 1361 and 1362. The Company and Seller Shareholders shall not take or allow any action that would result in the termination of the Company’s status as a validly electing S corporation within the meaning of Code Sections 1361 and 1362. In connection thereto, the Company and Seller Shareholders shall not allow the Company to make any distribution that could cause the Company to have more than one class of stock within the meaning of Code section 1361 and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.

4.3 Confidentiality; Non-Compete: Non-Solicitation; Non-Disparagement. In further consideration for the payment of the Purchase Price hereunder and in order to protect the value

Each Seller Shareholder shall use reasonable care to safeguard Confidential Information and to protect it against disclosure, misuse, espionage, loss and theft.

(b) (i) Each Seller Shareholder further agrees that, at any time requested, such Seller Shareholder shall promptly deliver to the Company and Buyer all Confidential Information and other Intellectual Property of the Company in such Seller Shareholder’s possession and control and all copies thereof, in whatever form or medium, including, without limitation, written records, optical and magnetic media, and all other materials containing or embodying any such Intellectual Property. If the Company requests, each Seller Shareholder shall promptly provide written confirmation that such Seller Shareholder has returned all such materials.

(c) Each Seller Shareholder agrees that the Company has received from third parties their confidential or proprietary information subject to a duty on the Company’s part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. Each Seller Shareholder agrees that he or she owes the Company and such third parties a duty to hold all such confidential or proprietary information in the strictest confidence and not to disclose it to any Person (except as necessary in carrying out such Seller Shareholder’s future work for the Company consistent with the Company’s agreement with such third party) or to use it for the benefit of anyone other than for the Company or such third party (consistent with the Company’s agreement with such third party) without the express authorization of the Company.

(d) With respect to the Major Seller Shareholder only, the Major Seller Shareholder acknowledges that he has and shall become familiar with Confidential Information concerning the Company and the Buyer and its Affiliates. Therefore, the Major Seller Shareholder agrees that during the period beginning on the date hereof and ending on the three (3) year anniversary of the Closing (the “Non-compete Period”), he shall not (and shall not take any steps toward or preparations in respect of), directly or indirectly, for himself or for any other

Person, own, manage, control, participate in, consult with, render services for, or in any other manner engage in any business or enterprise (i) which is competitive to the Business as conducted during the period of Major Seller Shareholder’s employment with the Company or Buyer or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or (ii) which provides global information technology services using an off-shore model where at least a majority of such Person’s (or in the case of a business unit, division or subsidiary, majority of its employees, as the case may be) employees are located in non-US locations (i.e., India, Sri Lanka, China etc.) or (iii) which provides any services that are competitive to the Business as conducted by the Company or Buyer or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates during the period of Major Seller Shareholder’s employment with the Company or Buyer or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates and whether on such Major Seller Shareholder’s own or on behalf of any Apparatus Competitor to any Person that was either a Company Customer or a Prospective Customer. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “participate” includes any direct or indirect interest in any enterprise, whether as an officer, director, employee, partner, sole proprietor, agent, representative, independent contractor, seller, franchisor, franchisee, creditor, or owner; provided that the foregoing activities shall not include passive ownership of less than 3% of the stock of a publicly-held corporation whose stock is traded on a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter market by the Major Seller Shareholder. The Major Seller Shareholder agrees that this covenant is reasonable with respect to its duration, geographical area and scope.

(i) During the Non-compete Period, each Seller Shareholder (other than the Major Seller Shareholder) shall not directly (A) induce or attempt to induce any employee of the Company to leave the employ of the Company, (B) hire or employ any person who was an employee of the Company at any time during the six month period immediately prior to the date hereof, or (C) induce or attempt to induce any Company Customer, supplier, licensee, licensor or other business relation of the Company to cease doing business with the Company. This Section 4.3(e)(i) shall not prevent general advertising in publications of general circulation for employment not specifically directed at employees of the Company.

(ii) During the Non-compete Period, the Major Seller Shareholder shall not directly or, indirectly through another Person, (A) induce or attempt to induce any employee of the Company or Buyer to leave the employ of the Company or Buyer, (B) hire or employ any person who was an employee of the Company or Buyer at any time during the six month period immediately prior to the date hereof, (C) induce or attempt to induce any Company Customer or Buyer Customer, supplier, licensee, licensor or other business relation of the Company or Buyer and its subsidiaries, affiliates to cease doing business with the Company or Buyer or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or (D) call on, solicit, or service any Company Customer, supplier, licensee, licensor or Prospective Customer with respect to provision of products and/or services that are provided by the Company or Buyer or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates during the period of Major Seller Shareholder’s employment with the Company or Buyer or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates for the purpose of diverting or attempting to divert or influence any business of such Person to any Apparatus Competitor or Person competitive to Buyer.

(f) Each of the Seller Shareholders acknowledges that, in the course of his employment with the Company, if applicable, or holding Securities thereof, he has become familiar with the Confidential Information of the Company, and with respect to Major Seller Shareholder, shall become familiar with the Confidential Information of Buyer and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates. The Major Seller Shareholder further acknowledges that the scope of the business of the Company or Buyer and its subsidiaries or affiliates is independent of location (such that is not practical to limit the restrictions contained in Section 4.3(d) to a specified country, city, or part thereof) and, that the Major Seller Shareholder has had direct or indirect responsibility, oversight or duties with respect to all of the businesses of the Company and its current and prospective employees, vendors, customers, clients and other business relations, and Major Seller Shareholder shall become familiar with the business of Buyer and its Affiliates and Subsidiaries and that, accordingly, the restrictions contained in this Section 4.3 are reasonable in all respects and necessary to protect the goodwill and Confidential Information of the Company and Buyer and that, without such protection, the Company and Buyer customer and client relationship and competitive advantage would be materially adversely affected. It is specifically recognized by the Major Seller Shareholder that his services to the Company and services to be performed to Buyer are special, unique, and of extraordinary value, that the Company and Buyer have a protectable interest in prohibiting the Major Seller Shareholder as provided in this Section 4.3, that the Major Seller Shareholder was significantly responsible for the creation and preservation of the Company and Buyer goodwill, and that money damages are insufficient to protect such interest, and that such prohibitions would be necessary and appropriate without regard to payments being made to the Major Seller Shareholder hereunder. The Major Seller Shareholder further acknowledges that the restrictions contained in Section 4.3(d) do not impose an undue hardship on him and, since he has general business skills which may be used in industries other than that in which the Company or Buyer conducts its business and do not deprive the Major Seller Shareholder of his livelihood.

(g) If, at the time of enforcement of this Agreement, a court holds that the restrictions stated in this Section 4.3 are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the Parties hereto agree that the maximum period, scope or geographical area reasonable under such circumstances as determined by such court shall be substituted for the stated period, scope or area. The Parties hereto agree that money damages would not be an adequate remedy for any breach of this Agreement. Therefore, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of any provisions of this Section 4.3 that is continuing, the Company, Buyer and their respective successors and permitted assigns and any third party beneficiary to this Agreement may, in addition to other rights and remedies existing in their favor, apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for specific performance and/or injunctive or other relief in order to enforce, or prevent any violations of, the provisions hereof (without posting a bond or other security). In addition, in the event of a breach or violation by any Seller Shareholder of this Section 4.3, the Non-compete Period shall be tolled until such breach or violation has been duly cured. Each Seller Shareholder agrees that the restrictions contained in this Section 4.3 are reasonable.

(h) Each Seller Shareholder acknowledges and represents that: (i) sufficient consideration has been given by each party to this Agreement to the other as it relates hereto; (ii) he has consulted with independent legal counsel regarding his or her rights and obligations under this Section 4.3, (iii) that he fully understands the terms and conditions contained herein,

and (iv) that the agreements in this Section 4.3 are reasonable and necessary for the protection of the Company and Buyer and are an essential inducement to Buyer to enter into this Agreement.

4.4 Litigation Support. Subject to Section 6.4, in the event that, and for so long as, any Party is actively contesting or defending against any Action in connection with (a) any transaction contemplated by any of the Transaction Documents or (b) any fact, situation, circumstance, status, condition, activity, practice, plan, occurrence, event, incident, action, failure to act, or transaction prior to the Closing Date involving the Company, each of the other Parties will reasonably cooperate with such contesting or defending Party and its counsel in the contest or defense, make available their personnel, and access to their books and records as shall be reasonably necessary in connection with the contest or defense, all at the sole cost and expense of the contesting or defending Party (unless the contesting or defending Party is entitled to indemnification therefor under the provisions of this Agreement).

4.5 Transition Services. The Seller Shareholders will not take any action which is designed intended or would reasonably be anticipated to have the effect of discouraging customers, suppliers, vendors, employees (other than as contemplated hereby), service providers, lessors, licensors and other business associates from maintaining the same business relationships with the Company after the date of this Agreement.

4.6 Proceeds from Purchase Price. From and after the Closing, Seller Shareholders agree not to use any of the proceeds from the Purchase Price to make any payments to any customer of the Company or to the employees of the Company, except that the Company and the Seller Shareholders (and the Major Seller Shareholder) may pay the SAR Holders pursuant to the terms of the cash-out agreements entered into by the Company and the Major Seller Shareholder with each of the SAR Holders (the “Cash-Out Agreements”).

4.7 Key Employee Restricted Stock Bonus Pool. The board of directors of Buyer has authorized and approved, and will not revoke, modify or alter, the grant of an aggregate amount of three million dollars ($3,000,000) (but in no event shall such incentive pool grant exceed eighty thousand (80,000) shares of common stock of Buyer)) (the “Incentive Pool”) in the form of restricted shares of common stock of Buyer for certain key employees (“Key Employees”) of the Company pursuant to Buyer’s 2007 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (“Buyer Stock Plan”).

(d) So long as the Indemnifying Party is conducting the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 6.4(b) above, (i) the Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim, (ii) the Indemnified Party will 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 Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be withheld unreasonably) and (iii) the Indemnifying Party will not consent to the entry or any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be withheld unreasonably) unless (A) the settlement is solely for monetary damages, (B) the Indemnified Party has no liability with respect to such settlement and (C) the terms of such settlement provide for a full release of the Indemnified Party.

6.6 Insurance and Third Party Recovery. In determining the liability of a Indemnifying Party for any Loss pursuant to this Article 6, no Loss shall be deemed to have been sustained by the Indemnified Party to the extent of any proceeds previously received by the Indemnified Party from any insurance recovery (net of all out-of-pocket costs directly related to such recovery) with respect to insurance coverage in place as of the date of such Loss or other recovery from a third party (net of all out-of-pocket costs directly related to such recovery). If an amount is actually recovered from an insurance carrier or other third party after damages have been paid by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to Article 6 hereof, then the Indemnified Party receiving such amount shall promptly remit such amount to the Indemnifying Party. Buyer shall, and shall cause the Company to, make any and all insurance claims under such policies relating to any claim for which a Buyer Party is seeking indemnification under this Article 6.

6.7 Offset. If any claims for Losses by any Buyer Party pursuant to Section 6.4 are unresolved as of the date any Earn-Out Amount is due and payable pursuant to Section 1.6 and the Escrow Fund is no longer available or the claimed Losses exceed the amount remaining in the Escrow Fund, Buyer shall deposit with the Escrow Agent the amount of such claimed Losses or the portion thereof in excess of the Escrow Fund, as applicable, from the Earn-Out Amount or any other right of payment to Seller Shareholders to be held by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the Escrow Agreement and this Agreement.

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. Any Action permitted by the terms of this Agreement to be filed in a court (which shall not include disputes which are reserved in Article 1 and Section 4.2 to be resolved by the Independent Accounting Firm), which Action is brought to enforce, challenge or construe the terms or making of any of the Transaction Documents, and any claims arising out of or related to any of the Transaction Documents, shall be exclusively brought and litigated exclusively in a state or federal court having subject matter jurisdiction and located in the State of Delaware. For the purpose of any Action instituted with respect to any claim arising out of or related to any of the Transaction Documents, each Party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state or federal courts having subject matter jurisdiction and located in the State of Delaware. Each Party hereby irrevocably waives any objection or defense which it may now or hereafter have of improper venue, forum non conveniens or lack of personal jurisdiction. Each Party further irrevocably consents to the service of process out of such courts by the mailing of a copy thereof, by registered mail, postage prepaid, to the party and agrees that such service, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws, (i) shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon it in any Action arising out of or related to any of the Transaction Documents and (ii) shall be taken and held to be valid personal service upon and personal delivery to it. Nothing herein contained shall affect the right of each party to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Legal Requirements.

(b) In the event of any litigation with regard to this Agreement, the prevailing party or parties shall be entitled to receive from the non-prevailing party or parties, and the non-prevailing party or parties shall pay, all reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by the prevailing

party or parties in connection with the resolution of such litigation. The term “prevailing party” shall include, but not be limited to, a party who obtains legal counsel or brings an action or makes a claim against the other by reason of the other’s alleged breach or alleged default and obtains substantially the relief sought.

8.8 Amendments and Waivers. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Parties hereto. No waiver by any Party of any default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence.

8.10 Construction.

If any covenant, agreement, provision or term of this Agreement is held to be invalid for any reason whatsoever, then such covenant, agreement, provision or term will be deemed severable from the remaining covenants, agreements, provisions and terms of this Agreement and will in no way affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement.

not performed in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise are breached.
