All costs directly attributable to performance of the work to generate the revenues credited to the Company (even if incurred by Buyer or its affiliates) and a fair allocation of the cost of Buyer for resources directly used in generating Company revenue shall be charged to the Company in calculating the Company’s EBITDA (and any resulting Earnout Payment).

ARTICLE VI: TAX MATTERS

6.1 Returns. The Shareholder, at his expense, shall prepare and timely file, or cause to be prepared and timely filed, all Returns of the Company that are due with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period (which shall include preparation of all Returns for the stub period ending on or before the Closing Date). The Buyer, at its expense, shall prepare and timely file, or cause to be prepared and timely filed, all Returns of the Company that are due with respect to any Straddle Period or Post-Closing Tax Period. The party responsible for preparing a Return (the “Preparing Party”) shall have authority to determine the manner in which any items of income, gain, deduction, loss or credit arising out of the income, properties and operations of the Company will be reported or disclosed in such Returns; provided, however, that Returns for any Pre-Closing Tax Period will be prepared by treating items on such Returns in a manner consistent with past practice with respect to such items, unless otherwise required by Law. Except with respect to Returns for a Post-Closing Tax Period, the Preparing Party shall provide, or cause to be provided, to the other party (the “Reviewing Party”) drafts of all Returns required to be prepared and filed by the Preparing Party under this Section 6.1 at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date for the filing of such Returns (including any extensions). At least fifteen (15) days prior to the due date for the filing of such Returns (including any extensions), the Reviewing Party will notify the Preparing Party of the existence of any objection (specifying in reasonable detail the nature and basis of such objection) the Reviewing Party may have to any items set forth on such draft Returns (a “Dispute Notice”). The Buyer and the Shareholder shall consult and resolve in good faith any such objection. The Preparing Party shall not file, or cause to be filed, any Return (other than Returns for a Post-Closing Tax Period) without the prior written consent of the Reviewing Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that no such consent will be required if the Reviewing Party shall not have delivered a Dispute Notice fourteen (14) days prior to the due date of a Return or the objections contained in a Dispute Notice related to such Return have been finally resolved by Buyer and the Shareholder.

37

6.2 Apportionment of Taxes. All Taxes and Tax liabilities with respect to the income, property or operations of the Company that relate to a Straddle Tax Period will be apportioned between the periods before and after Closing as follows: (a) in the case of Taxes other than income Taxes and sales and use Taxes, on a per diem basis, and (b) in the case of income Taxes and sales and use Taxes, as determined from the books and records of the Company, between the periods before and after Closing as though the taxable year of the Company terminated at the Closing and the Company had determined its taxes on the accrual basis. The Shareholder will be liable for the payment of all Taxes of the Company that are attributable to any Pre-Closing Tax Period and that portion of a Straddle Tax Period occurring prior to Closing, whether shown on any original Returns or amended Returns for the period referred to in such Returns. The Buyer will be liable for the payment of all Taxes that are attributable to any Post-Closing Tax Period and that portion of a Straddle Tax Period occurring after Closing, whether shown on any original Returns or amended Returns for the period referred to in such Returns. All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, value added and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) imposed on the Buyer or the Company in connection with this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements to which Buyer and Shareholder are parties will be borne and paid equally by the Shareholder, on the one hand, and the Buyer, on the other hand, when due, and the Shareholder, at the shared expense of Buyer, on the one hand, and the Shareholder, on the other hand, will cause to be filed all necessary Returns and other documentation with respect to all such Taxes and fees.

6.3 Cooperation; Audits. In connection with the preparation of Returns, audit examinations, and any administrative or judicial proceedings relating to the Tax liabilities imposed on the Company for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods and Straddle Tax Periods, the Buyer and the Company, on the one hand, and the Shareholder, on the other hand, shall cooperate fully with each other, including, without limitation, the furnishing or making available during normal business hours of records, personnel (as reasonably required), books of account, powers of attorney or other materials necessary or helpful for the preparation of such Returns, the conduct of audit examinations or the defense of claims by Tax Authorities as to the imposition of Taxes.

6.4 Controversies. The Buyer shall notify the Shareholder in writing upon receipt by the Buyer or any Affiliate of the Buyer (including the Company after the date of this Agreement) of written notice of any inquiries, claims, assessments, audits or similar events with respect to Taxes relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Tax Period for which the Shareholder may be liable under this Agreement (any such inquiry, claim, assessment, audit or similar event, a “Tax Matter”). With respect solely to Pre-Closing Tax Periods, the Shareholder will have the exclusive authority to represent the interests of the Company with respect to any Tax Matter before the IRS or any other Tax Authority and will have the sole right to extend or waive the statute of limitations with respect to a Tax Matter and to control the defense, compromise or other resolution of any Tax Matter, including responding to inquiries, filing Returns and settling audits; provided, however, that the Shareholder will not enter into any settlement of or otherwise compromise any Tax Matter that affects or may affect the Tax liability of the Buyer, the Company or any Affiliate of the foregoing for any Post-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Tax Period, without the prior written consent of the Buyer. The Buyer will not enter into any settlement of or otherwise compromise any Tax Matter that affects or may affect the Tax liability of the Shareholder, or any Affiliate of the Shareholder for any Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Tax Period, without the prior written consent of the Shareholder. The

38

Shareholder and the Buyer shall each keep the other fully and timely informed with respect to the commencement, status and nature of any Tax Matter. The Shareholder and the Buyer shall each, in good faith, allow the other to consult with him or it regarding the conduct of or positions taken in any such proceeding.

6.5 Amended Returns. The Shareholder may not file or cause or permit to be filed any amended Returns that affect or may affect the Tax liability of the Buyer, the Company, or any Affiliate of the foregoing for any Post-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Tax Period, without the prior written consent of the Buyer. The Buyer shall not file or cause or permit to be filed any amended Returns covering any period or adjusting any Taxes for a period that includes any period prior to the date of this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Shareholder. The Shareholder shall cooperate with the Company and the Buyer in obtaining Tax refunds, including through the filing of amended Returns or refund claims. The Buyer shall pay or cause to be paid to the Shareholder any Tax refunds received by the Buyer attributable to any Pre-Closing Tax Period or that portion of a Straddle Tax Period occurring before Closing.

6.6 Allocation of Purchase Price. The Buyer and the Shareholder agree that the Purchase Price and the liabilities of the Company (plus other relevant items) will be allocated to the assets of the Company as mutually agreed between the parties, and for all purposes (including Tax and financial accounting) in a manner consistent with Sections 338(h)(10) and 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. Each of the Shareholder, the Buyer and any of their respective Affiliates will adhere to, and be bound by, such allocation for foreign, U.S. federal, state or local income tax purposes. None of the Shareholder, the Buyer and any of their respective Affiliates will take any position contrary to such allocation unless required to do so by applicable Tax Laws.

6.7 Section 338(h)(10) Election.

(a) Buyer and Shareholder agree, with respect to the acquisition of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement, to prepare, execute, and file the election provided by Section 338(h)(10) of the Code and any comparable election under state, county, or local law (collectively and separately the “Election”). Each party shall provide to the other all information reasonably necessary to permit the making of the Election. Buyer shall, no later than thirty (30) days prior to the last date for filing a timely Election, execute and file Internal Revenue Service Form 8023 and all other forms, returns, elections, schedules, and documents as may be required to effect and preserve a timely Election.

(b) In connection with the Election and no later than thirty (30) days prior to the last date for filing a timely Election, Buyer shall in good faith (i) determine the amount of the “adjusted grossed-up basis” of the Company’s assets (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations adopted under Section 338(h)(10) and pursuant to Section 6.6, (ii) allocate the adjusted grossed-up basis among the Company’s assets in accordance with the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Allocation”), and (iii) permit Shareholder to review and comment on the Allocation. The Shareholder and Buyer will not take any position inconsistent with the Election, the Allocation, or the amount of the adjusted grossed-up basis in any tax return or otherwise; provided, however, that Shareholder shall be entitled to take into account his Transaction Expenses when calculating such gain or loss; and provided further,

39

however, that if, in any audit of any Tax Return of the Shareholder, Company or Buyer by a Taxing Authority, the fair market values are finally determined to be different from the Allocation, Buyer, Company and Shareholder may take any position or action consistent with the fair market values as finally determined in such audit, but shall not be obligated to do so if such audit is not binding on such Person. Subject to the preceding sentence, Buyer shall allocate the adjusted grossed-up basis among the Company’s assets in a manner consistent with the Allocation and will not take any position inconsistent with the Election, the Allocation or the amount of the adjusted grossed-up basis in any tax return or otherwise.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, the Company shall pay all state corporate income and franchise taxes imposed on the Company generated by or arising as a consequence of the Election (which tax amounts shall be accrued on the Closing Balance Sheet).

6.8 Actions on Closing Date Controlled by Buyer. Buyer covenants that it will not and will not cause or permit Company or any Affiliate of Buyer to take any action on the Closing Date other than the Election or in the Ordinary Course of Business, including, without limitation, the distribution of any dividend or the effectuation of any redemption, that could give rise to any Tax liability or give rise to any loss to the Shareholder with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Tax Period.

ARTICLE VII: REMEDIES

7.1 General Indemnification Obligation. Subject to the limitations contained in Section 7.3, the Shareholder shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Buyer, and its officers, directors, employees, agents and Affiliates (“Buyer Parties”) from and against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages, penalties, fines, judgments, awards, settlements, taxes, costs, fees, expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) and disbursements (collectively “Losses”) sustained by any Buyer Party based upon, arising out of or otherwise in respect of (a) any inaccuracies in or any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Shareholder contained in this Agreement (including any Schedule or Exhibit attached hereto) or any Ancillary Agreement to which the Shareholder is a party, (b) any Indebtedness or Transaction Expenses of Company not fully paid prior to the Closing, other than liabilities included in the final Closing Balance Sheet, (c) the matters described in Schedule 4.8 (but only to the extent that the aggregate amount of any Losses relating thereto exceeds the accrual for such Losses on the Closing Balance Sheet) or Schedule 4.9, (d) any Taxes of Company attributable to any Pre-Closing Tax Period or that portion of a Straddle Tax Period occurring prior to the Closing not fully paid when due and payable, and not listed as a liability on the final Closing Balance Sheet, or (e) all Losses arising from or pursuant to (i) the Child Care Agreement or (ii) the operation of the Child Care Center prior to or after the Closing Date, including any period after the delivery of notice of termination of the Child Care Agreement until the termination thereof, as provided in Section 2.4 hereof, or (iii) the assignment of the Child Care Agreement from the Company to the Child Care Entity. The Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Shareholder and his agents and Affiliates (“Shareholder Parties”) from and against any and all Losses sustained by a Shareholder Party based upon, arising out of or otherwise in respect of (x) any inaccuracies in or any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Buyer contained in this Agreement

40

(including any Schedule or Exhibit attached hereto) or any Ancillary Agreement to which the Buyer is a party, (y) any Taxes of Company attributable to any Post-Closing Tax Period or that portion of a Straddle Tax Period occurring after the Closing, and (z) Company’s operation of its business on or after the Closing Date.

7.2 Notice and Opportunity to Defend.

(a) Notice of Asserted Liability. As soon as is reasonably practicable after a Shareholder Party, on the one hand, or a Buyer Party, on the other hand, becomes aware of any claim that such Person has under Section 7.1 that may result in a Loss (a “Liability Claim”), such Person (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give notice of such Liability Claim (a “Claims Notice”) to the party indemnifying such Person (the “Indemnifying Party”). A Claims Notice must describe the Liability Claim in reasonable detail and must indicate the amount (estimated, if necessary and to the extent feasible) of the Loss that has been or may be suffered by the Indemnified Party. No delay in or failure to give a Claims Notice by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section 7.2(a) will adversely affect any of the other rights or remedies that the Indemnified Party has under this Agreement or alter or relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party to the extent that such delay or failure has not materially prejudiced the Indemnifying Party. After receipt of a Claims Notice, the Indemnifying Party may make such investigation of the Liability Claim as it shall deem necessary or desirable, and the Indemnified Party agrees to make available to the Indemnifying Party and/or its authorized representative(s) the information relied upon by the Indemnified Party to substantiate the Liability Claim.

(b) Opportunity to Defend. The Indemnifying Party has the right, exercisable by written notice to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days after receipt of a Claims Notice from the Indemnified Party of the commencement or assertion of any Liability Claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Article VII, to assume and conduct the defense of such Liability Claim in accordance with the limits set forth in this Agreement with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the (i) Indemnifying Party has sufficient financial resources, in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnified Party, to satisfy the amount of any adverse monetary judgment that is reasonably likely to result; and (ii) the Liability Claim primarily seeks monetary damages (the conditions set forth in clauses (i) through (ii) are, collectively, the “Litigation Conditions”). If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of a Liability Claim in accordance with this Section 7.2(b), the Indemnified Party may continue to defend the Liability Claim. If the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of a Liability Claim as provided in this Section 7.2(b), then (x) the Indemnified Party shall cooperate fully with the Indemnifying Party in defending the Liability Claim, (y) as between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party may only satisfy and discharge the Liability Claim in accordance with the limits set forth in this Agreement and (z) the Indemnifying Party will not be liable for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense of the Liability Claim; provided, however, that if (i) any of the Litigation Conditions ceases to be met or (ii) the Indemnifying Party fails to take reasonable steps necessary to defend diligently such Liability Claim, the Indemnified Party may assume its own defense, and the Indemnifying Party will be liable for all reasonable costs or expenses paid or incurred in connection with such defense. The Indemnifying Party or the

41

Indemnified Party, as the case may be, has the right to participate in (but not control), at its own expense, the defense of any Liability Claim which the other is defending as provided in this Agreement. The Indemnifying Party, if it has assumed the defense of any Liability Claim as provided in this Agreement, may not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such Liability Claim that (i) does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the Indemnified Party a complete release from all liability in respect of such Liability Claim, or (ii) grants any injunctive or equitable relief. An Indemnified Party may not settle a Liability Claim without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party unless (W) the Indemnifying Party has received the Claims Notice related to such Liability Claim, (X) the Indemnifying Party has had a reasonable period of time to investigate such Liability Claim with the cooperation of Indemnified Party, (Y) the Indemnified Party has delivered a written request to the Indemnifying Party asking the Indemnifying Party to confirm that it is liable for such Liability Claim pursuant to and subject to the limits contained in this Article VII and (Z) the Indemnifying Party has not, within ten (10) business days following its receipt of the foregoing written request, agreed in writing that it is liable for such Liability Claim pursuant to and subject to the limits contained in this Article VII.

7.3 Survivability; Limitations.

(a) The representations and warranties of the Shareholder and the Buyer contained in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement will survive for a period ending eighteen (18) months after the date of this Agreement (the “Expiration Date”); provided, however, that (i) the Expiration Date for any Liability Claim relating to fraud or a breach of or inaccuracy in the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.13 (Employee Benefit Plans), Section 4.14 (Environmental), the first sentence of Section 4.19(e) (DCAA audits) and Section 4.24 (Taxes) will be the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations; (ii) there will be no Expiration Date for any Liability Claim: (A) for which common law fraud is established, or (B) relating to claims based on a breach of or inaccuracy in the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.4 (Capitalization), and the first two sentences of Section 4.7(a) (Title to Shares) (the representations and warranties identified in clause (ii) above, the “Excluded Representations”); and (iii) any Liability Claim pending on any Expiration Date for which a Claims Notice has been given in accordance with Section 7.2 on or before such Expiration Date, or any potential Liability Claim described in specific detail in a Claims Notice which has been given in accordance with Section 7.2 on or before the Expiration Date, may continue to be asserted and indemnified against until finally resolved. Except as provided in (iii) above, no claim for indemnification may be made under Section 7.1 after the relevant Expiration Date. All of the covenants and agreements of the Shareholder and the Buyer contained in this Agreement will survive after the date of this Agreement until the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article VII, the Shareholder will not have any liability as a result of any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation or warranty referred to in this Agreement (other than the Excluded Representations), until the aggregate amount of all such Losses sustained by the Buyer exceeds One Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($150,000), in which case the Shareholder will be liable for all such Losses from the first dollar of loss without regard to such amount provided, however,

42

any Loss, which is less than Two Thousand Dollars ($2,000) (excluding fees) after aggregating such Loss with all Losses of a similar nature (i.e., uncollectible receivables) shall be excluded from Losses entitled to indemnification. Losses with respect to Excluded Representations will be subject to indemnification from the first dollar of loss.

(c) The maximum aggregate indemnification obligations of the Shareholder to the Buyer pursuant to Section 7.1 (excluding the Excluded Representations) made by the Shareholder in this Agreement will not exceed Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000).

7.4 Specific Performance. Each party’s obligation under this Agreement is unique. If any party should breach its covenants under this Agreement, the parties each acknowledge that it would be extremely impracticable to measure the resulting damages; accordingly, the nonbreaching party or parties, in addition to any other available rights or remedies under this Article VII, may xxx in equity for specific performance of such covenant, and each party expressly waives the defense that a remedy in damages will be adequate.

7.5 Setoff. An Indemnified Party is entitled to recover any indemnification payment or other amount due from an Indemnifying Party by setting off and retaining any amounts due or to become due from the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party, provided the Indemnified Party complies with all of the provisions contained in this Article VII and gives the Indemnifying Party proper written notice of such setoff.

7.6 Subrogation. Upon making an indemnity payment pursuant to this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party will, to the extent of such payment, be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party against any third party in respect of the damages to which the payment related. Without limiting the generality of any other provision hereof, each such Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party will duly execute upon request all instruments reasonably necessary to evidence and perfect the above described subrogation rights.

7.7 Exclusive Remedies. The remedies provided for in this Agreement shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of the parties and their respective officers, directors, employees, Affiliates, agents, representatives, successors and assigns for any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement; provided, however, that nothing herein is intended to waive any claims for fraud or willful misconduct or waive any equitable remedies to which a party may be entitled.

7.8 No Double Recovery; Use of Insurance. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification or reimbursement under any provision of this Agreement for any amount to the extent such Indemnified Party or its Affiliate has been indemnified or reimbursed for such amount under any other provision of this Agreement, the Exhibits or Schedules attached hereto, or any document executed in connection with this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements. Furthermore, in the event any losses, liabilities or damages related to a claim by a Buyer Party are covered by insurance, the Buyer Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to seek recovery under such insurance and the Buyer Party shall not be entitled to recover from the Shareholder (and shall refund amounts received up to the amount of indemnification actually received) with respect to such damages to the extent the Buyer Party recovers the insurance payment specified in the policy.

43

7.9 Treatment of Indemnity Payments Between the Parties. Unless otherwise required by applicable Law, all indemnification payments shall constitute adjustments to the Purchase Price for all Tax purposes, and no party shall take any position inconsistent with such characterization.

7.10 Mitigation. The Buyer Parties and Shareholder Parties shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate any loss, liability or damage which forms the basis of a Liability Claim.

ARTICLE VIII: MISCELLANEOUS
