(a) As used herein, the term “Working Capital” shall mean the “Net, Accounts Receivable”, “Other Receivables – Other”, and “Prepaids – Rent-Leased Space” less the “Liabilities – Accrued Expenses – Other” as of the Closing Date, as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied (“GAAP“), including the methods and practices as historically applied by the Company prior to the Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the “Net, Accounts Receivable” for purposes of calculating Working Capital shall only include those accounts receivable that were outstanding on the Closing Date and were collected by the Company on or before December 31, 2005. Seller will retain “Cash and Current Assets-Other” and will pay all liabilities that relate to a period of time ending on or before the Effective Time.

All collections after the Closing Date shall be applied first to the oldest outstanding invoice of the payor that was included in accounts receivable on the Closing Date unless (i) the payor has objected in writing to any specific invoice, or (ii) it is clear that the payor intends the payment to apply to a specific invoice, either because the payor has designated the invoice in writing or because the amount of the payment matches the amount of an invoice. Buyer acknowledges that the Company’s accounts receivable include amounts for services that have been provided by the Company but which have not yet been invoiced.

Membership Interest Purchase Agreement 6.

(c) Any accounts receivable that were outstanding on the Closing Date and remain outstanding on December 31, 2005 shall be assigned to Seller. Seller recognizes that some of the account debtors on these accounts may be ongoing customers of the Company, and Seller agrees to use only those collection efforts that it uses for its current customers. Buyer agrees to cause the Company to provide Seller with reasonable access to or copies of information reasonably required by Seller to respond to disputes raised by account debtors on the assigned accounts.

(d) On or before January 10, 2006, Buyer shall deliver to Seller its determination of Working Capital. Each Party shall have full access to the financial books and records pertaining to the Company to confirm or audit Working Capital computations. Should Seller disagree with Buyer’s determination of Working Capital, Seller shall notify Buyer in writing within fifteen (15) days after Buyer’s delivery of its determination of Working Capital and state the basis for its disagreement. If Seller and Buyer fail to agree within thirty (30) days after Seller’s delivery of notice of disagreement on the amount of Working Capital, such disagreement shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 4.3(d), which shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for resolving disputes relative to the determination of Working Capital. The Purchase Price shall be increased or decreased based on the difference between the amount of the Working Capital and Two Million Four Hundred Twenty-Three Thousand Eight Hundred Twenty-Eight and No/100 Dollars ($2,423,828.00) (the “Base Amount”). Within five (5) business days after determination thereof, any excess of actual Working Capital over the Base Amount shall be paid in cash to Seller, and any deficiency in Working Capital to the Base Amount shall be paid in cash to Buyer, in either case without interest on such amount.

(e) Any liability reflected in Working Capital shall remain a liability of the Company (the “Company Liabilities”) and Seller shall have no liability therefor. No liability shall be included in the Working Capital unless such liability would have been included in the Company’s balance sheet using the methods and practices of the Company as historically applied by the Company prior to the Closing.

(f) In the event that Seller and Buyer are not able to agree on the actual Working Capital within thirty (30) days after Seller’s delivery of notice of disagreement in accordance with Section 4.3(b) hereof, Seller and Buyer shall each have the right to require that such disputed determination be submitted to the Dallas office of Ernst & Young, LLP, or if Ernst & Young, LLP is not available for any reason or does not maintain its independent status, such other independent certified public accounting firm as Seller and Buyer may then promptly mutually agree upon in writing (the “Accounting Firm”) for computation or verification in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. The Accounting Firm shall review the matters in dispute and, acting as arbitrators, shall promptly decide the proper amounts of such disputed entries (which decision shall also include a final calculation of Working Capital). The submission of the disputed matter to the Accounting Firm shall be the exclusive remedy for resolving disputes relative to the determination of Working Capital. The Accounting Firm’s determination shall be binding upon Seller and Buyer. The Accounting Firm’s fees and expenses shall be borne equally by Seller and Buyer.

Buyer shall keep and save Seller and Seller’s officers, directors, managers, employees, agents and other representatives (the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) forever harmless from and shall indemnify and defend the Seller Indemnified Parties against any and all Damages, to the extent arising or resulting from (i) any breach of any representation or warranty of Buyer under this Agreement, (ii) any breach or default by Buyer under any covenant or agreement of Buyer under this Agreement, (iii) any account payable of the Company that was accounted for as part of the calculation of Working Capital, (iv) any professional liability claim arising out of the business operations of the Company on and after the Effective Time, and (v) any claim by a third party with respect to any act or omission of the Company in connection with the operation of the Business, which claim has accrued, arisen or come into existence at any time after the Closing Date, but only to the extent such claims do not arise out of any Seller Assumed Liabilities. No provision in this Agreement shall prevent Buyer from pursuing any of its legal rights or remedies that may be granted to Buyer by law against any person or legal entity other than Seller Indemnified Parties.

(b) Indemnification Limitations. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Buyer shall be under no liability to indemnify Seller under Section 8.3(a) and no claim under Section 8.3(a) shall be made:

(i) unless notice thereof shall have been given by or on behalf of Seller to Buyer in the manner provided in Section 8.4, unless failure to provide such notice in a timely manner does not materially impair Buyer’s ability to defend its rights, mitigate damages, seek indemnification from a third party or otherwise protect its interests;

(ii) to the extent related to a claim under Section 8.3(a)(i) related to Buyer’s breach of any representation or warranty of Buyer under this Agreement or any documents delivered pursuant hereto, unless and only to the extent that the actual liability of Buyer in respect of any single claim or multiple claims in the aggregate exceeds the Relevant Claim amount in which event Seller shall be entitled to seek indemnification for the total amount of the Relevant Claim(s);

Membership Interest Purchase Agreement 20.

(iii) for any Seller Assumed Liabilities;

(iv) to the extent that Seller had actual written knowledge at or prior to the Effective Time of (A) the respective breach of a representation or warranty by Buyer or (B) the breach of a covenant required to be performed or satisfied at or prior to the Effective Time; or

(v) to the extent such claim relates to an obligation or liability for which Seller has agreed to indemnify Buyer pursuant to Section 8.2.

Section 8.4 Method of Asserting Claims. All claims for indemnification under this Section 8 by any person entitled to indemnification (an “Indemnified Party”) under this Section 8 will be asserted and resolved as follows:

(a) In the event any claim or demand, for which a Party hereto (an “Indemnifying Party”) would be liable for the Damages to an Indemnified Party, is asserted against or sought to be collected from an Indemnified Party by a person other than Seller, Buyer or their Affiliates (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall give a notice of its claim (a “Claim Notice”) to the Indemnifying Party within thirty (30) calendar days after the Indemnified Party receives written notice of such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that notice shall be given by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party within fifteen (15) calendar days after receipt of a complaint, petition or institution of other formal legal action against the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to provide the Claim Notice within such applicable time period after the Indemnified Party receives written notice of such Third Party Claim and thereby materially impairs the Indemnifying Party’s ability to protect its interests, the Indemnifying Party will not be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party will notify the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of the Claim Notice (the “Notice Period”) whether the Indemnifying Party desires, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, to defend the Indemnified Party against such Third Party Claim.

(i) If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party within the Notice Period that the Indemnifying Party desires to defend the Indemnified Party with respect to the Third Party Claim pursuant to this Section 8.4(a), then the Indemnifying Party will have the right to defend, at its sole cost and expense, such Third Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings will be prosecuted by the Indemnifying Party to a final conclusion or will be settled at the discretion of the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party will have full control of such defense and proceedings, including any compromise or settlement thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Party may, at its sole cost and expense, file during the Notice Period any motion, answer or other pleadings that the Indemnified Party may deem necessary or appropriate to protect its interests or those of the Indemnifying Party and which is not prejudicial, in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnifying Party, to the Indemnifying Party. Except as

Membership Interest Purchase Agreement 21.

provided in Section 8.4(a)(ii) hereof, if an Indemnified Party takes any such action that is prejudicial and causes a final adjudication that is adverse to the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party will be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to the portion of such Third Party Claim prejudiced by the Indemnified Party’s action. If requested by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party agrees, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, to cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in contesting any Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party elects to contest, or, if appropriate and related to the Third Party Claim in question, in making any counterclaim against the person asserting the Third Party Claim, or any cross-complaint against any person (other than the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates). The Indemnified Party may participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement of any Third Party Claim controlled by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section 8.4(a)(i), and except as specifically provided in this Section 8.4(a)(i), the Indemnified Party will bear its own costs and expenses with respect to such participation.

(ii) If the Indemnifying Party fails to notify the Indemnified Party within the Notice Period that the Indemnifying Party desires to defend the Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 8.4(a), or if the Indemnifying Party gives such notice but fails to prosecute diligently or settle the Third Party Claim, or if the Indemnifying Party fails to give any notice whatsoever within the Notice Period, then the Indemnified Party will have the right to defend, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Third Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings will be promptly and reasonably prosecuted by the Indemnified Party to a final conclusion or will be settled at the discretion of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party will have full control of such defense and proceedings, including any compromise or settlement thereof; provided, however, that if requested by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party agrees, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, to cooperate with the Indemnified Party and its counsel in contesting any Third Party Claim which the Indemnified Party is contesting, or, if appropriate and related to the Third Party Claim in question, in making any counterclaim against the person asserting the Third Party Claim, or any cross-complaint against any person (other than the Indemnifying Party or any of its Affiliates). Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.4(a)(ii), if the Indemnifying Party has notified the Indemnified Party with reasonable promptness that the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim and if such dispute is resolved in favor of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party will not be required to bear the costs and expenses of the Indemnified Party’s defense pursuant to this Section 8.4(a)(ii). Subject to the above terms of this Section 8.4(a)(ii), the Indemnifying Party may participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement controlled by the Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 8.4(a)(ii), and the Indemnifying Party will bear its own costs and expenses with respect to such participation. The Indemnified Party shall give sufficient prior notice to the Indemnifying Party of the initiation of any discussions relating to the settlement of a Third Party Claim to allow the Indemnifying Party to participate therein.

(b) In the event any Indemnified Party should have a claim against any Indemnifying Party hereunder that does not involve a Third Party Claim being asserted against or sought to be collected from the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall deliver an

Membership Interest Purchase Agreement 22.

Indemnity Notice to the Indemnifying Party. The term “Indemnity Notice” shall mean written notification of a claim for indemnity under Section 8 hereof (which claim does not involve a Third Party Claim) by an Indemnified Party to an Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section 8.4, specifying the nature of and specific basis for such claim and the amount or the estimated amount of such claim. The failure by any Indemnified Party to give the Indemnity Notice shall not impair such party’s rights hereunder except to the extent that an Indemnifying Party demonstrates that it has been prejudiced thereby.

(c) If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) calendar days following its receipt of a Claim Notice or an Indemnity Notice that the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party hereunder, such claim specified by the Indemnified Party will be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party hereunder and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such liability to the Indemnified Party on demand, or on such later date (i) in the case of a Third Party Claim, as the Indemnified Party suffers the Damages in respect of such Third Party Claim, or (ii) in the case of an Indemnity Notice in which the amount of the claim is estimated, when the amount of such claim becomes finally determined. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its liability with respect to such claim, as provided above, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party agree to proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute, and if not resolved through negotiations, such dispute will be resolved by adjudication by a court or similar tribunal.

(d) The Indemnified Party agrees to give the Indemnifying Party reasonable access to the books and records and employees of the Indemnified Party in connection with the matters for which indemnification is sought hereunder, to the extent the Indemnifying Party reasonably deems necessary in connection with its rights and obligations hereunder.

(e) The Indemnified Party shall assist and cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the conduct of litigation, the making of settlements and the enforcement of any right of contribution to which the Indemnified Party may be entitled from any person or entity in connection with the subject matter of any litigation subject to indemnification hereunder. In addition, the Indemnified Party shall, upon request by the Indemnifying Party or counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party (without payment of any fees or expenses to the Indemnified Party or an employee thereof), attend hearings and trials, assist in the securing and giving of evidence, assist in obtaining the presence or cooperation of witnesses, and make available its own personnel; and shall do whatever else is reasonably necessary and appropriate in connection with such litigation. The Indemnified Party shall not make any demand upon the Indemnifying Party or counsel for the Indemnifying Party in connection with any litigation subject to indemnification hereunder, except a general demand for indemnification as provided hereunder. If the Indemnified Party shall fail to perform such obligations as Indemnified Party hereunder or to cooperate fully with the Indemnifying Party in Indemnifying Party’s defense of any suit or proceeding, such cooperation to include, without limitation, attendance at all depositions and the provision of all documents relevant to the defense of any claim, then, except where such failure does not have an adverse effect on the Indemnifying Party’s defense of such claims, the Indemnifying Party shall be released from all of its obligations under this Agreement with respect to that suit or proceeding and any other claims which had been raised in such suit or proceeding.

Membership Interest Purchase Agreement 23.

(f) Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party with respect to all persons or entities relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made.

Section 8.5 Right of Offset. In addition to any other rights provided under this Agreement, Buyer shall be entitled to offset the amount of any indemnification claims against Seller that have been resolved against any payments due under Note A or Note B. Any claims that have been asserted on or before a payment date under Note A or Note B but are not resolved prior to the payment date may be offset against the payment then due if Buyer shall deposit such withheld funds in an escrow account with a national bank to be held until receipt of joint disbursement directions signed by Seller and Buyer or upon the resolution of such unresolved claims. The rights of offset described in this Section 8.5 shall not be the sole and exclusive remedy of Buyer.

Section 8.6 Exclusive Remedy. Other than claims for fraud or equitable relief, any claim for indemnification arising under this Agreement shall, unless otherwise specifically stated in this Agreement, be governed solely and exclusively by the provisions of this Section 8. If Seller and Buyer cannot resolve such claim by mutual agreement, such claim shall be determined by adjudication by a court or similar tribunal in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.

Section 8.7 Survival. The provisions of this Section 8 and the obligations of the parties hereunder shall survive the Closing.

Section 8.8 Release. Seller hereby releases the Company of and from any claims that it may be able to assert for indemnity for acts performed in its capacity as a member or manager of the Company. Buyer, for itself and on behalf of the Company, hereby releases Seller from any claims that the Company may have against Seller for acts performed by Seller in its capacity as a member or manager of the Company; provided, however, that such release shall not apply to any of the Seller Assumed Obligations, any of the indemnification obligations, or any other obligations arising under this Agreement.

Section 9. Non-Disclosure. Confidential Information means all: (i) of the Company’s trade secrets and confidential information; (ii) information treated by the Company as confidential; and (iii) information provided by third parties that the Company must keep confidential; provided, however, that Confidential Information does not include any information that (a) is available to the public through no fault of Seller, (b) is furnished by the Company to third parties without any disclosure restriction, or (c) Seller is legally obligated to disclose, but only if Seller first gives the Company prompt notice thereof so that the Company may challenge the legally compelled disclosure. Seller must not disclose any Confidential Information to any other person, unless that other person is authorized by Buyer to have access to the Confidential Information. All Confidential Information is the Company’s exclusive property.
