into the Company, and the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall thereupon cease, (ii)
the Company shall be the surviving corporation in the Merger (sometimes hereinafter referred to as
the “Surviving Corporation”) and shall continue to be governed by the CGCL as a wholly

the State of California, in such form as required by and executed in accordance with the relevant
provisions of the CGCL (the “Plan of Merger”), and (ii) making such other filings and
taking such other actions as may be required by Law to make the Merger effective hereinafter. The

the Secretary of State of the State of California or at such later date and time as may be
permitted or required by the CGCL and specified in the Plan of Merger by mutual agreement of
Parent, Merger Sub and the Company (the date and time the Merger becomes effective being the

1.3 Effect of the Merger. At the Effective Time, the effect of the Merger shall be as
provided in this Agreement, in the Plan of Merger and in the applicable provisions of the CGCL.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time the
Surviving Corporation shall succeed, without other transfer, to all the rights and property of each

the Company and Merger Sub in the same manner as if the Surviving Corporation had itself incurred
them.
1.4 Articles of Incorporation; Bylaws. At the Effective Time and without any further

Merger as a result of any cash proceeds received by the Company from the date hereof to the Closing
Date pursuant to the exercise of Company Options or any other options, warrants or other rights to
acquire Company Stock (it being understood, however, that any such cash proceeds, to the extent in
existence and constituting an asset of the Company at the Closing, would be taken into account as a
cash asset in the calculation of Estimated Net Assets and Closing Net Assets and would not be
excluded in calculating any adjustment to be made pursuant to Section 1.9 or Section 1.10).
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the

will be converted automatically into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest,

Common Pro Rata Share multiplied by (B) any proceeds or distributions of the Escrow Deposit (if,
when and to the extent distributed from escrow to the Shareholders pursuant to the Escrow

of the Escrow Deposit (if, when and to the extent distributed from escrow to the Shareholders
pursuant to the Escrow Agreement);

provided in Section 1.14) will be converted automatically into the right to receive an amount in
cash, without interest, equal to the Series D Closing Consideration Per Share plus an amount equal
to the product of (A) the Series D Pro Rata Share multiplied by (B) any proceeds or distributions
of the Escrow Deposit (if, when and to the extent distributed from escrow to the Shareholders
pursuant to the Escrow Agreement); and

equal to the product of (A) the Series D-1 Pro Rata Share multiplied by (B) any proceeds or

certificate representing any such share of Company Stock shall cease to have any rights with
respect thereto, except the right to receive such holder’s respective portion of the Total

prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically converted into one (1) validly issued, fully
paid and nonassessable share of Common Stock, no par value per share, of the Surviving Corporation,
and all of such shares, as converted, shall thereafter constitute all of the issued and outstanding
capital stock of the Surviving Corporation. Each stock certificate of Merger Sub evidencing
ownership of any shares of Merger Sub Common
4
Stock shall continue to evidence ownership of such shares of capital stock of the Surviving
Corporation.
1.7 Stock Options, Warrants and Restricted Stock.
(a) The Company shall take all actions necessary to provide that at the Effective Time (i)
each Director Option that is outstanding, unexercised and unexpired immediately prior to the
Effective Time, whether vested or unvested, and as to which the holder thereof executes a Director
Option Termination Agreement shall be accelerated in full, cancelled and converted into and
represent the right to receive the Option Spread Amount in accordance with the Director Option
Termination Agreement, (ii) each Vested Non-Employee Option that is outstanding, vested,
unexercised and unexpired immediately prior to the Effective Time, and as to which the holder
thereof executes an Option Termination Agreement shall be cancelled and converted into and
represent the right to receive the Option Spread Amount with respect to the vested portion of such
Company Option and the unvested portion of such Company Option, if any, shall be cancelled without
any payment to the holders, in accordance with the Option Termination Agreement, and (iii) all
options to purchase Company Stock that are not Assumed Options shall be terminated and cancelled by
the Company and shall be of no further force or effect. The amount of cash each holder of Director
Options or Vested Non-Employee Options that are outstanding, unexercised and unexpired immediately
prior to the Effective Time (collectively, “Cashed-Out Options”) is entitled to receive for
the Cashed-Out Options held by such holder shall be rounded to the nearest cent and computed after
aggregating cash amounts for all Cashed-Out Options held by such holder. Any amount paid pursuant
to this Section 1.7(a) in respect of Cashed-Out Options shall be subject to any applicable Taxes
required to be withheld with respect to such payment.
(b) At the Effective Time, the 2000 Stock Plan shall be assumed by Parent; provided that prior
to Closing, the Company shall make such amendments and modifications to the 2000 Stock Plan as
Parent shall reasonably request. Each Assumed Option shall be assumed by Parent in a manner
consistent with Code Sections 409A and 424(a) and the Treasury regulations thereunder (including
proposed regulations). Each such Assumed Option so assumed by Parent shall continue to have, and
be subject to, the same terms and conditions as set forth in the 2000 Stock Plan, as the same may
be amended (and any related Contract), pursuant to which such Assumed Option was granted and
issued, in each case, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that (x) each
such Assumed Option shall become exercisable in accordance with its terms for that number of shares
of Parent Common Stock equal to the product obtained by multiplying (A) the number of shares of
Common Stock that were issuable upon the exercise in full of such Assumed Option immediately prior
to the Effective Time by (B) the Assumed Company Option Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest
whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock, (y) the per share exercise price for the Parent
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of each such Assumed Option assumed shall be equal to the
quotient obtained by dividing (A) the exercise price per share of Common Stock at which such
Assumed Option was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by (B) the Assumed Company
Option Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent, and (z) if a holder of an Assumed
Option executes and delivers to Parent and the Company an option amendment agreement in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit F (an “Option Amendment Agreement”), such Assumed Option
shall vest and be immediately exercisable (subject to the provisions of the Option Amendment
5
Agreement). Following the assumption of the Assumed Options, all references to the Company in
any such Assumed Options and the 2000 Stock Plan shall be deemed to refer to Parent.
(c) Parent shall pay or cause the Company to pay (at the same time as any payment of any
proceeds or distributions of the Escrow Deposit, if and when distributed from escrow to the
Shareholders in accordance with the Escrow Agreement) to each Company Employee holding an Assumed
Option immediately prior to the Effective Time (whether or not such Company Employee has executed
and delivered an Option Amendment Agreement) an amount in cash per Assumed Option Share equal to:
(i) the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the Aggregate Option Holdback Amount (less amounts
set-off against such Aggregate Option Holdback Amount pursuant to Section 9.4(c) hereof) by (y) the
number of Assumed Option Shares, less (ii) applicable Taxes required to be withheld with respect to
the payment of such amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all amounts distributable pursuant to
this Section 1.7(c) shall be paid no later than five years after the Closing Date in accordance
with Proposed Regulation 1.409A-3(g)(5)(iv). Parent shall be entitled, pursuant to Section 9.4(c)
hereof, to set off indemnity claims against the Aggregate Option Holdback Amount from time to time.
(d) With respect to Director Option Termination Agreements, Option Termination Agreements and
Option Amendment Agreements, the Company shall mail such agreements to the applicable holders of
Company Options no later than three business days following the date of this Agreement, and shall
use reasonable efforts to have such agreements executed by such holders and delivered to the
Company at least one day prior to the Closing Date.
(e) The Company shall use reasonable efforts to provide that each holder of Company Warrants
shall have executed and delivered to Parent a Warrant Termination Agreement prior to the Effective
Time.
(f) The Company shall take all actions to provide that each holder of Restricted Shares, if
any, shall have duly executed and delivered to Parent a Restricted Stock Amendment Agreement prior
to the Effective Time. Subject to the Restricted Stock Amendment Agreements, the portion of the
Merger Consideration issued in exchange for any such Restricted Shares will be unvested and subject
to the same repurchase option, substantial risk of forfeiture or other similar condition to which
the Restricted Shares are subject. The Company shall use reasonable efforts to ensure that, from
and after the Effective Time, Parent is entitled to exercise any such repurchase option or other
right set forth in any such restricted stock purchase agreement or other agreement. Subject to the
last sentence of this Section 1.7(f), after the Effective Time, Parent shall pay the Merger
Consideration to which such Restricted Shares are entitled in accordance with the vesting schedule
applicable to the Restricted Shares, subject to applicable withholdings for Taxes. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the amount of cash contributed to the Escrow Deposit on behalf of any Shareholder
holding Restricted Shares pursuant to Section 1.8 shall be contributed from that portion that is
vested or otherwise unrestricted and free from a repurchase option, risk of forfeiture or other
condition under any applicable restricted stock purchase agreement or other agreement with the
Company. To the extent that the vested or unrestricted cash payable to any Shareholder pursuant to
this Agreement is less than the amount to be contributed to the Escrow Deposit on behalf of such
Shareholder pursuant to this Agreement, the restricted cash amounts contributed to the Escrow
Deposit on
6
behalf of such Shareholder shall vest or otherwise become free from a repurchase option, risk
of forfeiture or other condition under any applicable restricted stock purchase agreement or other
agreement with the Company in priority to other cash amounts otherwise receivable by such
Shareholder pursuant to this Agreement and no payment shall be made to such Shareholder unless and
until all of the cash amounts contributed to the Escrow Deposit on behalf of such Shareholder has
vested and is otherwise free from a repurchase option, risk of forfeiture or other condition under
any applicable restricted stock purchase agreement or other agreement with the Company.
1.8 Escrow. On the Closing Date, the Shareholders’ Representative, Parent, Merger Sub
and Branch Banking and Trust Company of Virginia, a Virginia banking corporation (the “Escrow
Agent”), shall enter into an Escrow Agreement in substantially the form attached hereto as
Exhibit G (the “Escrow Agreement”). In order to secure (i) the payment of the
Post-Closing Adjustment, if any, pursuant to Section 1.10 hereof and (ii) the satisfaction of
claims pursuant to Article IX of this Agreement, Parent is hereby directed by the Shareholder
Representative to deposit with the Escrow Agent at the Closing an amount in cash equal to the
Escrow Deposit and Parent shall make such deposit as so directed.
1.9 Adjustments to Total Consideration.
(a) At least five (5) days prior to the Closing, the Company and Parent shall jointly prepare
and finalize (i) the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet and (ii) the Statement of Estimated Closing
Liabilities.
(b) The Total Consideration shall be adjusted, as indicated below, by the following amounts,
if any, shown on the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet or Statement of Estimated Closing Liabilities,
as applicable: (i) the Total Consideration shall be reduced dollar for dollar by the amount of any
Indebtedness (other than Bridge Notes as to which the Company has timely received a Conversion
Notice); (ii) the Total Consideration shall be reduced dollar for dollar by the amount of any
Non-Ordinary Course Liabilities (other than Paid Transaction Expenses the payment of which has been
given effect on the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet); and (iii) the Total Consideration shall be
reduced dollar for dollar by the amount of the Estimated Net Assets Deficit, if any, or increased
dollar for dollar by the amount of the Estimated Net Assets Surplus, if any. The adjustments set
forth in this Section 1.9(b) shall be referred to herein collectively as the “Estimated Closing
Adjustment.” The Estimated Closing Adjustment shall be determined without regard to the
limitations set forth in Section 9.4 hereof.
(c) No later than five (5) days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall provide to Parent
a draft statement setting forth the following information as of immediately prior to the Effective
Time: (i) the names and addresses of record of each holder (each a “Holder”) of Company
Stock, Company Options, Company Warrants, Bridge Notes or rights to receive payments pursuant to
the Carve-Out Plans, (ii) the type and number of shares of Company Stock held by each such Holder,
(iii) the number of Company Options held by each such Holder, (iv) the number and type of Company
Warrants held by each such Holder, and (v) each such Holder’s allocation of Total Consideration
(setting forth each security or right pursuant to which such allocation is made and the amount
allocated with respect to each such security or right together with all tax withholdings required
to be made in connection with the
7
payment of such allocated amount), Escrow Deposit, Aggregate Option Holdback Amount and
Aggregate Bonus Holdback Amount. The Company shall use all reasonable efforts to cause the Company
Options and the Company Warrants not to be exercised after the draft of the Statement of Closing
Consideration is prepared and delivered pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. No later
than two (2) business days prior to the Closing, the Parties shall agree upon a flow of funds
memorandum which shall set forth all payments required to be made by or on behalf of all Parties at
the Closing on an aggregate basis and not to each individual shareholder (which shall include,
without limitation, provision for the payment of any Indebtedness and any Non-Ordinary Course
Liabilities (other than any Paid Transaction Expenses the payment of which has been given effect on
the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet)), including for each such payment an identification of the
payor, the payee, the amount and the wire transfer information. The draft statement referred to in
the first sentence of this Section 1.9(c) shall be finalized by the Company and Parent no later
than 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the day before the Closing Date (such final statement, the
“Statement of Closing Consideration”).
(d) Promptly upon the Closing, the Company (or Parent on the Company’s behalf and at the
Company’s direction) shall repay all Indebtedness (other than Bridge Notes as to which the Company
has timely received a Conversion Notice) and all Non-Ordinary Course Liabilities (other than any
Paid Transaction Expenses the payment of which has been given effect on the Estimated Closing
Balance Sheet) from the Total Consideration. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, at
the Closing, the Company shall pay (or shall direct Parent to pay on the Company’s behalf) all
amounts due and owing pursuant to the Carve-Out Plans and any award agreements thereunder to the
participants in such Carve-Out Plans, and in connection therewith shall withhold (or direct Parent
to withhold on the Company’s behalf) from such payments (i) all amounts required under applicable
Law and the Benefit Plans to be withheld and shall pay (or direct Parent to pay on the Company’s
behalf) to the appropriate Tax authority (and to any applicable Benefit Plan) all such amounts as
required by such Law or Benefit Plan to be so paid, and (ii) in the case of the Management Bonus
Plan, an amount equal to the Aggregate Bonus Holdback Amount, pro rata from each Management Bonus
Plan participant in proportion to the aggregate Management Bonus Plan payments to which such
participant is entitled under the Management Bonus Plan. Parent shall be entitled to rely
exclusively on the amounts set forth on the Statement of Closing Consideration for the amounts of
any payments to be made or withheld. Parent shall be entitled, pursuant to Section 9.4(c) hereof,
to set off shareholder indemnity claims against the Aggregate Bonus Holdback Amount from time to
time. Parent shall pay (or cause to be paid) and at the same time as any payment of and proceeds
or distributions of the Escrow Deposit, if and when distributed from escrow to the Shareholders in
accordance with the Escrow Agreement to each Company Employee as of the Closing participating in
the Management Bonus Plan an amount in cash equal to such Company Employee’s pro rata share of such
Aggregate Bonus Holdback Amount (less in all cases applicable Taxes required to be withheld with
respect to the payment of such amount).
1.10 Post-Closing Adjustment.
(a) Within ninety (90) days following the Closing Date, Parent shall furnish the Shareholders’
Representative with the Closing Balance Sheet and the Statement of Closing Liabilities.
8
(b) The Shareholders’ Representative shall have a period of ten (10) days after receipt of the
Closing Balance Sheet to notify Parent of its election to accept or reject the Closing Balance
Sheet. In the case of a rejection, such notice must contain the reasons for such rejection in
reasonable detail and must set forth the amount of the requested adjustment. In the event no
notice is received by Parent during such ten (10) day period, the Closing Balance Sheet and any
required adjustments resulting therefrom shall be deemed accepted by the Shareholders’
Representative and the Key Shareholders and final and binding on the Parties hereto. In the event
that the Shareholders’ Representative shall timely reject the Closing Balance Sheet, Parent and the
Shareholders’ Representative shall promptly (and in any event within thirty (30) days following the
date upon which the Shareholders’ Representative shall reject the Closing Balance Sheet), attempt
to make a joint determination of the Closing Adjustments and such determination and any required
adjustments resulting therefrom shall be final and binding on the Parties hereto.
(c) In the event the Shareholders’ Representative and Parent shall be unable to agree upon a
joint determination of Closing Adjustments within one hundred seventy (170) days from the Closing
Date, then within one hundred eighty (180) days from the Closing Date, Parent and the Shareholders’
Representative shall submit the dispute to the Accounting Firm. Parent and the Shareholders’
Representative shall request that the Accounting Firm render its determination prior to the
expiration of two hundred forty (240) days from the Closing Date and such determination and any
required adjustments resulting therefrom shall be final and binding on all the Parties hereto. The
fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be allocated to be paid by Parent and/or the Key
Shareholders, respectively, based upon the percentage which the portion of the total amount
contested and not awarded to such party bears to the total amount contested, as determined by the
Accounting Firm.
(d) If the Closing Net Assets as finally determined in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 1.10 is less than the Estimated Net Assets, then Parent and Stockholders’ Representative
shall so notify the Escrow Agent and subject to Section 9.4(c), (i) the aggregate amount of such
deficit less the amount of the Holdback Claim Amount for such deficit shall be paid to Parent by
the Escrow Agent from the Escrow Deposit, as an adjustment to the Total Consideration, by wire
transfer in immediately available funds within seven (7) days after such determination and (ii)
Parent shall be entitled to set off and recover from the Aggregate Option Holdback Amount and the
Aggregate Bonus Holdback Amount, on a pro rata basis, an amount equal to the Holdback Claim Amount
for such deficit, and the Aggregate Option Holdback Amount and the Aggregate Bonus Holdback Amount
shall be reduced on a pro rata basis by the amount so set off and recovered. If the Closing Net
Assets as finally determined in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1.10 exceeds the
Estimated Net Assets, then Parent and the Stockholders’ Representative shall so notify the Escrow
Agent and (i) the aggregate amount of such surplus shall be paid by Parent to the Escrow Agent to
be added to the Escrow Deposit as an adjustment to the Total Consideration by wire transfer in
immediately available funds within seven (7) days after such determination and (ii) the Aggregate
Option Holdback Amount shall be increased on a pro rata basis with the amount of the increase in
the Escrow Deposit pursuant to clause (i) of this sentence.
(e) If the Indebtedness and/or the Non-Ordinary Course Liabilities (other than Paid
Transaction Expenses the payment of which has been given effect on the Closing Balance Sheet)
determined pursuant to this Section 1.10 exceed the Indebtedness and/or the Non-
9
Ordinary Course Liabilities (other than Paid Transaction Expenses the payment of which has
been given effect on the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet), respectively, set forth on the Estimated
Closing Balance Sheet, such excess shall be paid to Parent by the Escrow Agent from the Escrow
Deposit, as an adjustment to the Total Consideration, by wire transfer in immediately available
funds within seven (7) days after such determination. If the Indebtedness and/or the Non-Ordinary
Course Liabilities (other than Paid Transaction Expenses the payment of which has been given effect
on the Closing Balance Sheet) determined pursuant to this Section 1.10 are less than the
Indebtedness and/or the Non-Ordinary Course Liabilities (other than Paid Transaction Expenses the
payment of which has been given effect on the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet), respectively, set
forth on the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet, such deficit shall be paid by Parent to the Escrow
Agent to be added to the Escrow Deposit as an adjustment to the Total Consideration by wire
transfer in immediately available funds within seven (7) days after such determination. The
adjustments described in Sections 1.10(d) and (e) shall be referred to collectively as the
“Post-Closing Adjustment.”
1.11 Surrender of Certificates.
(a) Distribution of Transmittal Letter. Prior to the Closing Date, Parent shall make
available to the Company, and, as soon as practicable following the Effective Time (and, in any
event, within five (5) days thereafter), Parent shall cause to be mailed to each record holder of
certificates evidencing shares of Company Stock to be exchanged pursuant to Section 1.6 (the
“Certificates”) a letter of transmittal in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H
(the “Letter of Transmittal”) and instructions for such holder’s use in effecting the
surrender of the Certificates and the exercise of the rights of such holder to obtain the portion
of the Total Consideration payable to such holder pursuant to Section 1.6.
(b) Delivery of Total Consideration. Upon surrender to Parent or its designated
representative of any Certificates for cancellation, together with a Letter of Transmittal, duly
completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, together with such
other executed documents as may be required pursuant to the instructions set forth in the Letter of
Transmittal, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive, in exchange therefor the
portion of the Total Consideration to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 1.6 of this
Agreement. Parent shall transmit the applicable portion of the Total Consideration to which such
holder is entitled (subject to the portion escrowed pursuant to Section 1.6 and 1.8) in accordance
with the terms of Section 1.6 hereof within three (3) days after receipt of all such holder’s
Certificates for cancellation and a Letter of Transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in
accordance with the instructions thereto, together with such other executed documents as may be
required pursuant to the instructions set forth therein. No interest shall be paid or accrued on
any portion of the Total Consideration payable pursuant to Section 1.6. Until so surrendered, each
Certificate shall, after the Effective Time, represent for all purposes only the right to receive
the applicable portion of the Total Consideration payable pursuant to Section 1.6 in respect of the
shares of Company Stock represented by such Certificate. Any holder of Company Stock who has not
complied with this Article I shall be entitled to look only to Parent (subject to abandoned
property, escheat or other similar Laws) only as a general creditor thereof with respect to the
applicable portion of the Total Consideration payable in respect of such shares of Company Stock
pursuant to Section 1.6, without any interest thereon.
10
(c) No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of
Parent, Merger Sub or the Surviving Corporation shall be liable to a holder of a Certificate for
any applicable Total Consideration or any other amount due that was properly delivered to a public

payments made in the normal course of business and consistent with past practice.
(d) There has been no Prohibited Transaction with respect to any Benefit Plan which could
result in Liability to the Company, its ERISA Affiliates, any of their respective employees. There
has been no breach of fiduciary duty (including violations under Part 4 of Title I of ERISA) with
respect to any Benefit Plan which could result in Liability to the Company, its ERISA Affiliates or
any of their respective employees. No action, suit, proceeding, hearing or investigation relating
to any Benefit Plan (other than routine claims for benefits) is pending or, to the knowledge of the
Company, has been threatened, and the Company
20
does not have knowledge of any fact that could form the basis for such action, suit,
proceeding, hearing or investigation. No matters are currently pending with respect to any Benefit
Plan under the Employee Plans Compliance Resolution System maintained by the IRS or any similar
program maintained by any other Government Authority. None of the directors, officers or employees
(with responsibility for employee benefit matters) of the Company or any ERISA Affiliate have any
knowledge of any basis for any such action, suit, proceeding, hearing or investigation.
(e) Neither the Company, nor any ERISA Affiliate has ever sponsored, maintained, contributed
to, had any obligation to contribute to, or had any other Liability under or with respect to any
Employee Pension Benefit Plan covered by Title IV of ERISA, Section 302 of ERISA or Section 412 of
the Code. Neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has ever had any Liability under or with
respect to any “multiemployer plan” as defined in ERISA Section 3(37) or any “multiple employer
welfare arrangement” as defined in Section 3(40)(A) of ERISA.
(f) Neither the Company, nor any ERISA Affiliate has ever sponsored, maintained, administered,
contributed to, had any obligation to contribute to, or had any other Liability under or with
respect to any Employee Welfare Benefit Plan which provides health, life or other coverage for
former directors, officers or employees (or any spouse or former spouse or other dependent
thereof), other than benefits required by COBRA. Benefits under each Welfare Plan, with the
exception of any flexible spending arrangements subject to Sections 125 and 105 of the Code, are
provided exclusively through insurance contracts or policies issued by an insurance company, health
maintenance organization, or similar organization unrelated to the Company or any ERISA Affiliate,
the premiums for which are paid directly by the Company or any ERISA Affiliate from its general
assets or partly from its general assets and partly from contributions by its employees. No
insurance policy or contract relating to any such Welfare Plan requires or permits retroactive
increase in premiums or payments due thereunder.
(g) Neither the Company, nor any ERISA Affiliate has ever maintained a “voluntary employees
beneficiary association” within the meaning of Section 501(c)(9) of the Code or any other “welfare
benefit fund” as defined in Section 419(e) of the Code.
(h) All reports and information relating to each Benefit Plan required to be filed with a
Government Authority have been timely filed and are accurate; all reports and information relating
to each such Benefit Plan required to be disclosed or provided to participants or their
beneficiaries have been timely disclosed or provided, and there are no restrictions on the right of
the Company or any ERISA Affiliate to terminate or decrease (prospectively) the level of benefits
under any Benefit Plan after the Closing Date without Liability to any participant or beneficiary
thereunder.
(i) There has been made available to Parent, with respect to each applicable Benefit Plan, the
following: (i) a copy of the annual report (if required under ERISA) with respect to each such
Benefit Plan for the last three (3) years (including all schedules and attachments); (ii) a copy of
the summary plan description, together with each summary of material modification required under
ERISA with respect to such Benefit Plan; (iii) a true and complete copy of each written Benefit
Plan and, with respect to Pension Plans, each written plan
21
document and all amendments thereto which have been adopted since the inception of such plan;
(iv) the current IRS determination or opinion letter; (v) for all trust agreements, insurance
contracts, and similar instruments with respect to each funded or insured Benefit Plan; (vi) copies
of all nondiscrimination and top-heavy testing reports for the last three (3) plan years with
respect to each Benefit Plan that is subject to nondiscrimination and/or top-heavy testing; and
(vii) any investment management agreements, administrative services contracts or similar agreements
relating to the ongoing administration and investment of any Benefit Plan.
(j) Each ERISA Affiliate is identified on Schedule 3.8(j).
(k) Each Benefit Plan sponsored by the Company is terminable at the discretion of such entity
with no more than thirty (30) days advance notice and without cost to such entity. No Employee
Pension Benefit Plan, including the assets of such plan, is subject to any charge, market value
adjustment, deferred rules charge or other fee that is payable by reason of the termination of such
plan or investment. The Company may, without cost, withdraw their employees, directors, officers
and consultants from any Benefit Plan which is not sponsored by such entity. No Benefit Plan has
any provision which could increase or accelerate benefits or any provision which could increase
Liability to the Company or Parent as a result of the transactions contemplated hereby, alone or
together with any other event. No Benefit Plan imposes withdrawal charges, redemption fees,
contingent deferred sales charges or similar expenses triggered by termination of the plan or
cessation of participation or withdrawal of employees thereunder. No officer, director, agent or
employee of the Company or any ERISA Affiliate has made any oral or written representation which is
inconsistent with the terms of any Benefit Plan which may be binding on such plan, the Company or
any ERISA Affiliate.
(l) Each Benefit Plan, employment agreement, or other contract, plan, program, agreement, or
arrangement that is a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” (within the meaning of Section
409(A)(d)(1) of the Code) has been operated in good faith compliance with Section 409A of the Code
and the applicable provisions of IRS Notice 2005-1, Proposed Treasury Regulation §§ 1.409A-1
through 1.409A-6, and any subsequent guidance relating thereto; and no additional tax under Section
409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code has been or is reasonably expected to be incurred by a participant in any
such Benefit Plan, employment agreement, or other contract, plan, program, agreement, or
arrangement. Neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate is a party to, or otherwise obligated
under, any contract, agreement, plan or arrangement that provides for the gross-up of taxes imposed
by Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code.
(m) The execution and delivery by the Company of this Agreement and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated thereby, will not conflict with or result in any violation of or default
under (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both), or give rise to a right of termination,
cancellation, modification or acceleration of any obligation or loss of any benefit under any
Benefit Plan, trust or loan that will or may result in any payment (whether of severance pay or
otherwise), acceleration, forgiveness of indebtedness, vesting, distribution, increase in benefits
or obligation to fund benefits with respect to any employee.

or the right of any of them to compete with any Person or the right of any of them to sell to or
purchase from any other Person.
(b) Neither Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is, or has ever been, bound by or subject to
(and none of its assets or properties are bound by or subject to) any arrangement with any labor

Subsidiaries is or has ever been represented by any labor union or covered by any collective
bargaining agreement while employed by the Company or its Subsidiaries and no campaign to establish
such representation is in progress. With respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries, there is no

stoppage or employee grievance process, (ii) material charge, grievance proceeding or other claim
against or affecting the Company or its Subsidiaries relating to the alleged violation of any law

Commission or any comparable Government Authority, (iii) union organizational activity or other
labor or employment dispute against or affecting the Company or its Subsidiaries, or (iv)

compensation, family and medical leave, the Immigration Reform and Control Act, and occupational
safety and health requirements, and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has engaged in
any unfair labor practice. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is or has been liable
for the payment of any compensation, damages, taxes, fines, penalties or other amounts, however
designated, for failure to comply with any of the foregoing. All Persons classified by the Company
or its Subsidiaries as independent contractors do satisfy and have satisfied the requirements of
applicable Law to be so classified. No individual who has performed services for or on behalf of
the Company or its Subsidiaries and who has been treated by the Company or its Subsidiaries as an
independent contractor, is classifiable as a “leased employee” within the meaning of Section
414(n)(2) of the Code with respect to the Company or its Subsidiaries.

or former employees (other than in compliance with applicable Law and any Contract to which such
person is party or is bound). To the knowledge of the Company, no person employed by the Company
or its Subsidiaries has employed any trade secret or any confidential information or documentation
proprietary to any former employer or violated any confidential relationship which such person had
with any third party, in connection with the development, manufacture or sale of any Product or
proposed Product or the development or sale of any service or proposed service of the Company or
its Subsidiaries.
(e) Schedule 3.9(e) to the Disclosure Schedule lists all the Company Employees who are
on leave as of the date of this Agreement relating to work-related injuries and/or receiving
disability benefits under any Benefit Plan.
3.10 Taxes.
(a) The Company and its Subsidiaries have filed (or has had filed on its behalf) on a timely
basis all Tax Returns it is required to have filed. Neither the Company nor any of its
Subsidiaries has requested or obtained any extension of time within which to file any Tax Return,
which Tax Return has not since been filed.
(b) All such Tax Returns are correct and complete in all respects. All Taxes required to have
been paid by the Company and its Subsidiaries (whether or not shown on any Tax Return) have been
paid on a timely basis. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has any Liabilities for
Taxes not yet required to have been paid, other than Liabilities for Taxes reflected on the Balance
Sheet, or incurred in the ordinary course of business since the date of the Balance Sheet. There
are no Encumbrances on any of the assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that arose in
connection with any failure (or alleged failure) timely to pay any Tax.
24
(c) The Company and its Subsidiaries have complied in all respects with all applicable Laws
relating to withholding Taxes and information reporting, and has, within the time and manner
prescribed by law, withheld from employee wages and other payments and paid over to the proper
Government Authority all amounts required to have been so withheld and paid.
(d) No claim has ever been communicated to the Company by a Government Authority in a
jurisdiction where the Company and its Subsidiaries do not file Tax Returns that any of them are or
may be subject to taxation by that jurisdiction. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries
has commenced activities in any jurisdiction which would reasonably be expected to require the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries to make an initial filing of any Tax Return with respect to
Taxes imposed by a Government Authority that it had not previously been required to file in the
immediately preceding taxable period.
(e) Except as set forth on Schedule 3.10(e), neither the Company nor any of its
Subsidiaries has a “permanent establishment” in any foreign country as such term is defined in any
applicable Tax treaty or convention between the United States and such foreign country and has not
otherwise taken steps or conducted business operations that have exposed, or will expose it to the
taxing jurisdiction of a foreign country.
(f) There are no existing circumstances which would reasonably be expected to result in the
assertion of any claim for Taxes against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries by any Government
Authority with respect to any period for which Tax Returns are required to have been filed or Tax
is required to have been paid. There is no audit or other proceeding presently pending or
threatened in writing (or to the Company’s knowledge, otherwise) with regard to any Tax Liability
or Tax Return of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any Shareholder relating to the Company
or its Subsidiaries. No issue has been raised by any Government Authority with respect to Taxes of
the Company or its Subsidiaries in any prior examination which, by application of the same or
similar principles, would reasonably be expected to result in a proposed deficiency for any other
taxable period of the Company or its Subsidiaries.
(g) Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries nor any person on behalf of the Company or
its Subsidiaries has waived any statute of limitations or agreed to any extension of time that has
continuing effect with respect to assessment or collection of any Tax for which the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries may be held liable. There is not currently in effect any power of attorney
authorizing any Person to act on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or receive

Subsidiaries has made any payments, is obligated to make any payments, and is a party to any
contract, agreement, plan or arrangement requiring the Company or its Subsidiaries to make payments
to any person that would be a parachute payment as a result of any event connected with the
acquisition by Parent or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement, and neither the
Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to any contract or agreement that will have
continuing effect after the Closing Date that under certain circumstances could require any payment
(or be deemed to give rise to any payment) that would
25
be a parachute payment. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries nor any ERISA
Affiliate is a party to, or otherwise obligated under, any contract, agreement, plan or arrangement
that provides for the gross-up of taxes imposed by Section 4999 of the Code.
(i) Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has made or agreed to make, and is not
required to make, any change in method of accounting previously used by it in any Tax Return filed
by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries which change in method would require the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries to make an adjustment to its income pursuant to Section 481(a) of the Code (or
any similar provision) on any Tax Return for any taxable period for which the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries has not yet filed a Tax Return; and neither is there any application pending with any
Government Authority requesting permission for the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to make any
change in any accounting method, nor has the Company or any of its Subsidiaries received any notice
that a Government Authority proposes to require a change in method of accounting used in any Tax
Return which has been filed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.
(j) Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has taken any action not in accordance
with past practice that would have the effect of deferring a measure of Tax from a period (or
portion thereof) ending on or before the Closing Date to a period (or portion thereof) beginning
after the Closing Date. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has deferred income or Tax
Liability arising out of any transaction, except to the extent adequately reserved for on its
Balance Sheet, including without limitation, any (i) intercompany transaction (as defined in
Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-13), (ii) the disposal of any property in a transaction
accounted for under the installment method pursuant to Section 453 of the Code, (iii) use of the
long-term contract method of accounting or (iv) receipt of any prepaid amount on or before the

into any agreement under Section 341(f) of the Code with respect to any of its assets.

holding corporation within the meaning of Section 897(c)(2) of the Code at any time during the
preceding five (5) years. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to any safe
harbor lease within the meaning of Section 168(f)(8) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as in
effect prior to amendment by the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982. No property
owned by the Company is (i) “tax-exempt use property” within the meaning of Section 168(h)(1) of
the Code or (ii) “tax-exempt bond financed property” within the meaning of Section 168(g) of the
Code. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has constituted either a “distributing
corporation” or a “controlled corporation” within the meaning of Section 355(a)(1)(A) of the Code
in a distribution qualifying (or intended to qualify) under Section 355 of the Code (or so much of

owned (directly or indirectly) an interest in a passive foreign investment company within the
meaning of Section 1297 of the Code. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is, or at any
time has been, subject to (i) the dual consolidated loss provisions of the Section 1503(d) of the

been a member of an “affiliated group” (within the meaning of Section 1504(a) of the Code) or
similar group of entities with which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries joined, or was or may
be required to join, for any taxable period in making a consolidated federal income Tax Return or
other Tax Return in which Tax Liability was or would be computed on a consolidated, combined,
unitary or similar basis, and (ii) has or has had a relationship to any other Person which would
cause it to be liable for Taxes owed by any other Person, including, without limitation, Tax
payable by reason of Contract, assumption, transferee liability, operation of Law, Treasury
Regulation Section 1.1502-6(a) (or any predecessor or successor thereof or any analogous or similar

forth on Schedule 3.11(a) to the Disclosure Schedule are in full force and effect and
constitute valid and binding agreements of the Company (or one or more of its Subsidiaries) and, to

the Closing and (b) any failure of the Company or any Key Shareholder, respectively, to comply with
or satisfy in any material respect any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or

or otherwise affect the remedies available hereunder to Parent.

Closing, the Company shall supplement Schedule 3.9(a)(i) to the Disclosure Schedule with a
complete and accurate list of all Company Employees as of the Closing Date.

47
pursuant to resolutions duly adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company or other
duly-designated authority. In addition, at the request of Parent, the Company will terminate any
one or more Welfare Plans, including any group health, dental, severance, separation or salary
continuation plans, programs or arrangements, effective as of the date specified by Parent (but in
no event to be effective prior to immediately prior to the Closing) and, at the request of Parent,
the Company will provide Parent with evidence that such Welfare Plans have been so terminated
pursuant to resolutions duly adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company or other
duly-designated authority. The Company also shall take such other actions in furtherance of
terminating such Benefit Plans as Parent may reasonably require.
(b) To the extent permitted under applicable Law and under the terms of the applicable Parent
employee benefit plan (including any applicable break in service or similar rule), each Company
Employee who is a participant in a Benefit Plan (a “Company Participant”) shall be given
service credit for all purposes, including for eligibility to participate (provided that no
retroactive contributions shall be required), eligibility for vesting under Parent’s employee
benefit plans and arrangements (other than the 2000 Stock Plan, as to which the provisions of
Article I and the Option Amendment Agreements and Restricted Stock Amendment Agreements shall
control, and any Parent equity or option plans) with respect to his or her length of service with
the Company prior to the Closing Date; provided, however, that no such credit shall be given for
purposes of the accrual of benefits, eligibility for any post-employment welfare benefits, or for
purposes of determining the amount of benefits that may become payable under any severance plans or
programs maintained by the Parent. To the extent permitted under applicable Law and the terms and
provisions of Parent’s employee benefit plans and arrangements, Parent shall use reasonable efforts
to cause any and all pre-existing conditions (or actively at work or similar) limitations,
eligibility waiting periods and evidence of insurability requirements under any Parent employee
welfare benefit plans and arrangements to be waived with respect to such Company Participants (and
their beneficiaries) and shall provide them with credit for any co-payments, deductibles, and

which their participation in such Parent plans commences. Nothing in this Section 6.11(b) shall
prevent Parent from changing its compensation structure or employee benefit programs or obligate
Parent to provide any particular type or amount of compensation or benefits to any employee. This
Section 6.11 is not intended, nor will be interpreted, to provide or create any third party
beneficiary rights in any Company Employee.

meaning of Section 280G(b)(1) of the Code) (the “280G Payments”);

Regulation Section 1.280G-1); and (iii) deliver to Parent evidence reasonably satisfactory to
Parent that the shareholder vote was held in conformance with Section 280G and Treasury Regulation
Section 1.280G-1, and either (x) the requisite shareholder approval was obtained with respect to
the 280G Payments; or (y) the requisite shareholder approval was not obtained with respect to 280G

Closing Date, the provisions in its articles of incorporation and bylaws providing for exculpation
of director liability and its indemnification of officers and directors of the Company (the

Unanticipated Development with a disclosure of such Company Unanticipated Development and its

Disclosure Schedule with respect to any such Parent Unanticipated Development with a disclosure of
such Parent Unanticipated Development and its relevant facts in reasonable detail, together with a

conditions of this Section 6.17(c), such Parent Proposed
51
Supplement shall be effective for purposes of the representations and warranties made at the
Closing, but shall in no way be effective for purposes of amending, supplementing or revising any

inaccuracy or misrepresentation made as of the date hereof, and shall be disregarded for purposes
of Section 8.1 and Section 10.1(a)(i) hereof.

respect to which any Indemnified Party may be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article
IX, Parent shall have the right, at its election, to proceed with the defense (including settlement
or compromise) of such claim, demand or Proceeding on its own; provided, however, that if Parent
settles or compromises any such claim, demand or Proceeding without the consent of the
Shareholders’ Representative, such settlement or compromise shall not be conclusive evidence of the
amount of Damages incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with such claim, demand or
Proceeding (it being understood that if Parent requests that the Shareholders’ Representative
consent to a settlement or compromise, the Shareholders’ Representative shall act reasonably in
determining whether to provide such consent). Parent shall give the Shareholders’ Representative
prompt notice after it becomes aware of the commencement of any such claim, demand or legal
proceeding against Parent; provided, however, any failure on the part of Parent to so notify the
Shareholders’ Representative shall not limit any of the obligations of the Shareholders or the
Shareholders’ Representative, or any of the rights of any Indemnified Party, under this Article IX
(except to the extent such failure materially adversely prejudices the defense of such claim,
demand or Proceeding). If Parent does not elect to proceed with the defense (including settlement
or compromise) of any such claim, demand or Proceeding, the Shareholders’ Representative may
proceed with the defense of such claim, demand or Proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory
to Parent; provided, however, that the Shareholders’ Representative may not settle or compromise
any such claim, demand or Proceeding without the prior written consent of Parent (which consent may
not be unreasonably withheld). No Indemnified Party (other than Parent or any successor thereto or
assign thereof) shall be permitted to assert any indemnification claim or exercise any other remedy
under this Agreement unless Parent (or any successor thereto or assign thereof) shall have
consented to the assertion of such indemnification claim or the exercise of such other remedy.
9.3 Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants.
(a) Each covenant and agreement contained in this Agreement or in any agreement or other
document required to be executed and delivered contemporaneously herewith or at the Closing (other
than those covenants and agreements that are required to be fully performed at or prior to the
Closing) shall survive the Closing and be enforceable until such covenant or agreement has been
fully performed. All covenants and agreements that are required to be fully performed at or prior
to the Closing and all representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any
agreement or other document required to be executed and delivered contemporaneously herewith or at
the Closing pursuant hereto shall survive the Closing until the date that is 18 months after the
Closing Date and shall thereafter expire, except that any indemnification claim that has been made
for a Breach of any such covenant, agreement, representation or warranty prior to such date shall
survive until such claim is resolved.
58
(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.3(a), the limitations on survival set forth in
Section 9.3(a) shall not apply to (i) claims against a Shareholder, Party or other Person based on
criminal matters, actual fraud or intentional misrepresentation by such Shareholder, Party or other
Person, of which such Shareholder, Party or other Person had actual knowledge, or in which such
Shareholder, Party or other Person is otherwise implicated (collectively, “Specific Fraud
Claims”) which shall survive without limitation (and in no event less than six years), (ii)
claims (other than Specific Fraud Claims) relating to criminal matters, actual fraud or intentional
misrepresentation (“General Fraud Claims,”), which shall survive the Closing until the date
that is forty-two (42) months after the Closing Date and shall thereafter expire, except that any
such indemnification claim that has been made on or prior to such date shall survive until such
claim is resolved, (iii) the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.2 (Authority),
3.4 (Capitalization) and 3.18 (Intellectual Property) which shall survive the Closing until the
date that is forty-two (42) months after the Closing Date and shall thereafter expire, except that
any such indemnification claim that has been made on or prior to such date shall survive until such
claim is resolved, and (iv) the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.8 (Employee
Benefit Plans) and 3.10 (Taxes) which shall survive the Closing until the date that is twenty-four
(24) months after the Closing Date and shall thereafter expire, except that any such
indemnification claim that has been made prior to such date shall survive until such claim is
resolved, (collectively, (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) are referred to as the “Excluded
Claims”).
(c) Claims for indemnification pursuant to Sections 9.1(iv), (viii) or (ix) hereof must be
made on or prior to the date that is twenty-four (24) months after the Closing Date, except that
any such indemnification claim that has been made on or prior to such date shall survive until such
claim is resolved. Claims for indemnification pursuant to Sections 9.1(iii), (v), (vi) or (vii)
hereof must be made on or prior to the date that is forty-two (42) months after the Closing Date,
except that any such indemnification claim that has been made on or prior to such date shall
survive until such claim is resolved.
(d) Nothing herein shall be deemed to prevent the Indemnified Party from making a claim, and
an Indemnified Party may make a claim hereunder, for potential or contingent claims or demands, if
the notice of such claim sets forth the basis for any such potential or contingent claim or demand
to the extent then reasonably feasible and the Indemnified Party has reasonable grounds to believe
that such a claim or demand may be made.
9.4 Limitations on Indemnification.
(a) After the Closing Date, the Escrow Deposit, the Aggregate Option Holdback Amount and the
Aggregate Bonus Holdback Amount shall be the Indemnified Parties’ sole recourse for (i) any
indemnification claims made pursuant to Sections 9.1(i) or (x) hereof (except for Excluded Claims,
as to which the foregoing limitation shall not apply) and (ii) indemnification claims made against
Shareholders who are not Key Shareholders (except for Specific Fraud Claims, as to which the
foregoing limitation shall not apply). Except in the case of Excluded Claims, there shall be no
liability for Damages for indemnification claims pursuant to Sections 9.1(i) or (iv) hereof unless
and until the aggregate amount of all Damages for all claims asserted by the Indemnified Parties
exceeds $200,000; provided that, after the aggregate amount of Damages exceeds
$200,000, all Damages in excess of the first $50,000 of such Damages shall be recoverable by the
Indemnified Parties. Prior to the date that is eighteen (18)
59
months after the Closing Date, indemnification claims pursuant to this Agreement shall be
satisfied first from the Escrow Deposit, Aggregate Option Holdback Amount and Aggregate Bonus
Holdback Amount, if and to the extent the Escrow Deposit, Aggregate Option Holdback Amount and
Aggregate Bonus Holdback Amount are then available to satisfy such claims; provided
that, the foregoing provisions of this sentence shall not apply to Specific Fraud Claims.
The aggregate liability of each Key Shareholder for Excluded Claims (other than Specific Fraud
Claims) or claims pursuant to Sections 9.1(ii), (iii), (v), (vi) or (vii) hereof shall not exceed
an amount equal to the amount of the Merger Consideration received by such Key Shareholder in the
Merger. From and after the earlier to occur of (x) the date that is 18 months after the Closing
Date and (y) such time as the Escrow Deposit, Aggregate Option Holdback Amount and Aggregate Bonus
Holdback Amount shall have been fully depleted, the Indemnified Parties shall pursue
indemnification claims of the nature described in Section 9.1(a)(v) (other than such claims which
also constitute Specific Fraud Claims) pursuant to Section 11 of the Voting Agreement. The
aggregate liability of the Key Shareholders for indemnification claims for breaches of
representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.8 (Employee Benefit Plans) and 3.10 (Taxes)
hereof and claims described in Sections 9.1(iv), (viii) and (ix) hereof shall not exceed an amount
equal to the greater of (A) $15,000,000 or (B) the product of (x) 50%, multiplied by (y) the
aggregate amount of the Merger Consideration (provided that, in no event shall the aggregate
liability of a Key Shareholder for such claims (other than Specific Fraud Claims) exceed an amount
equal to the amount of the Merger Consideration received by such Key Shareholder). The amount of
Damages incurred by an Indemnified Party which relate to any Liabilities which are set forth on, or
for which reserves exist on, the Closing Balance Sheet (or which the Shareholders’ Representative
can demonstrate by clear and convincing written evidence was taken into account in the calculation
of Closing Net Assets) that shall be recoverable hereunder in indemnification shall be the amount
of such Damages that exceeds the amount of such Liability or reserve (but only if the Liability set
forth or reserved against on the Closing Balance Sheet is specifically identified thereon).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement (including, without
limitation, Section 9.3 hereof and this Section 9.4 hereof), there shall be no limitation,
restriction or prohibition on the rights, remedies or entitlement of the Indemnified Parties (or
any of them) to claim and recover Damages from any Shareholder or any other Party or Person, or
otherwise exercise any rights or remedies (at law or in equity) available to such Indemnified Party
with respect to any Shareholder or other Party or Person, whether pursuant to Section 9.1 or
pursuant to applicable Law in connection with, resulting from or arising out of, directly or
indirectly, Specific Fraud Claims against such Shareholder, Party or Person. Except for Fraud
Claims and except in the case of injunctive relief as set forth in Article XI hereof, the
indemnification provisions contained in this Article IX are Parent’s exclusive remedy for claims
arising from this Agreement.
(b) For purposes of quantifying Damages resulting from any Breach of any representation or
warranty for purposes of indemnification under this Article IX, all representations and warranties
shall be treated as if the words “materially,” “in all material respects” or similar words were
omitted from such representations and warranties. The indemnification obligations of the parties
hereto and the rights and remedies that may be exercised by an Indemnified Party shall not be
limited or otherwise affected by or as a result of any information furnished to, or any
investigation made by or knowledge of any of the Indemnified Parties or any of their
Representatives.
60
(c) In the event Parent shall make an indemnification claim against the Escrow Deposit (or
there shall be a deficit in Closing Net Assets pursuant to Section 1.10) pursuant to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement and, as a result of such claim or deficit,
amounts are to be paid from the Escrow Deposit to Parent (or an other Indemnified Party), then (i)
the amount payable from the Escrow Deposit as a result of the claim or deficit shall be equal to
the full amount to be paid as a result of the claim or deficit (the “Claim Payment”)

ARTICLE XI
MISCELLANEOUS
MISCELLANEOUS
11.1 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon the Parties and their respective successors and assigns; provided,
however, that the Company and the Key Shareholders may not make any assignment of this
Agreement or any interest herein without the prior written consent of Parent. Any such purported
assignment without such prior written consent shall be void and of no force or effect. This
Agreement or any of the severable rights and obligations inuring to the benefit of or to be
performed by Parent hereunder may be assigned by Parent to a third party, in whole or in part, and
to the extent so assigned, the Company and the Key Shareholders hereby recognize said assignee as
the party-in-interest with respect to the rights and obligations assigned and agrees to look solely
to said assignee for the purpose of conferring benefits, or requiring performance of obligations,
assigned to it by Parent.
11.2 Governing Law. This Agreement shall in all respects be interpreted, construed
and governed by and in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, without regard to
its conflicts of laws principles; provided that the Merger shall be governed by the CGCL.
11.3 Specific Performance. Each Party acknowledges that the other Parties shall be
irreparably harmed and that there shall be no adequate remedy at law for any violation by any of
them of any of the covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement. It is accordingly agreed
that, in addition to, but not in lieu of, any other remedies which may be available upon the breach
of any such covenants or agreements, each Party shall have the right to obtain injunctive relief
before the Closing (and, in the case of Fraud Claims and claims relating to the enforcement of the
provisions of Section 6.14, Section 6.16, Articles I, IX or XI hereof, after the Closing) to
restrain a breach or threatened breach of, or otherwise to obtain specific performance of, the
other Parties’ covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement. All rights and remedies of
the Parties under this Agreement shall be cumulative, and the exercise of one or more rights or
remedies will not preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy available under this Agreement
or applicable law.
11.4 Severability. Each section, subsection and lesser section of this Agreement
constitutes a separate and distinct undertaking, covenant and/or provision hereof. In the event
that any provision of this Agreement shall finally be determined to be unlawful, such provision
shall be deemed severed from this Agreement, but every other provision of this Agreement shall
remain in full force and effect; provided, however that if such unlawful clause is
so material to the Party for whose benefit the clause was originally included so that such Party
would not have entered into this Agreement without such unlawful clause, the severability of such
clause shall be arbitrated pursuant to Section 11.9 hereof.
11.5 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended, supplemented or modified only by
execution of an instrument in writing signed by Parent, the Company and the Shareholders’
Representative.
63
11.6 Waiver. Any Party hereto may to the extent permitted by applicable Law (i)
extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other Parties
hereto, (ii) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other Parties
hereto contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto or (iii) waive compliance with
any of the agreements of the other Parties hereto contained herein. No such extension or waiver
shall be effective unless set forth in a written instrument duly executed by or on behalf of the
Party extending the time of performance or waiving any such inaccuracy or non-compliance. No
waiver by any Party of any term of this Agreement, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to
be or construed as a waiver of the same or any other term of this Agreement on any future occasion.

11.9 Arbitration.
(a) Except as set forth in Section 11.3 and Section 11.9(c) hereof, any dispute, difference,
controversy or claim arising in connection with or related or incidental to, or question occurring
under, this Agreement or the subject matter hereof shall be finally settled under the Commercial
Arbitration Rules (the “Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”),
unless otherwise agreed, by an arbitral tribunal composed of three (3) arbitrators, at least one
(1) of whom shall be an attorney experienced in corporate transactions, appointed by agreement of
Parent and the Shareholders’ Representative in accordance with said Rules. In the event Parent and
the Shareholders’ Representative fail to agree upon a panel of arbitrators from the first list of
potential arbitrators proposed by the AAA, the AAA will submit a second list in accordance with
such Rules. In the event Parent and the Shareholders’ Representative shall have failed to agree
upon a full panel of arbitrators from such second list, any remaining arbitrators to be selected
shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with such Rules. If at the time of the arbitration
Parent and the Shareholders’ Representative agree in writing to submit the dispute to a single
arbitrator, such single arbitrator shall be appointed by agreement of Parent and the Shareholders’
Representative in connection with the foregoing procedure or failing such agreement by the AAA in
accordance with such Rules. All arbitrators shall be neutral arbitrators and subject to Rule 19 of
the Rules.
(b) The arbitrators shall not have the authority to add to, detract from, or modify any
provision hereof nor to award punitive damages to any injured Party. A decision by a majority of

and reasoned award with respect to the dispute to each of the parties, who shall promptly act in
accordance therewith. Any arbitration proceeding shall be held in Fairfax County, Virginia.
(c) The Parties hereby exclude any right of appeal to any court on the merits of the dispute.
The provisions of this Section 11.9 may be enforced in any court having jurisdiction over the award
or any of the Parties or any of their respective assets, and judgment on the award (including
without limitation equitable remedies) granted in any arbitration hereunder may be entered in any
such court. Nothing contained in this Section 11.9 shall prevent any Party from seeking injunctive
or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction, without the need to resort to
arbitration.
(d) In any arbitration hereunder, the holders of Company Stock and their respective successors
shall be bound by any and all actions taken by the Shareholders’ Representative on their behalf
pursuant to Section 2.3. All communications or writings sent to the Shareholders’ Representative
shall be deemed notice to all of the holders of Company Stock hereunder.
11.10 Complete Agreement. This Agreement, those documents expressly referred to
herein, including all exhibits and schedules hereto, and the other documents of even date herewith,
together with the Non-Disclosure Agreement, dated as of February 24, 2006, between the Company and
Parent, embody the complete agreement and understanding among the Parties and supersede and preempt
any prior understandings, agreements or representation by or among the Parties, written or oral,
which may have related to the subject matter herein.
66

(other than Section 6.14, which shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Indemnified
Officers/Directors, and Article IX, which shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the
Indemnified Parties) is intended, nor will be interpreted, to provide or create any third party
beneficiary rights or any other rights of any kind in any client, customer, Affiliate, shareholder,
employee or partner of any Party hereto or any other Person.
11.12 Mutual Drafting. This Agreement is the mutual product of the Parties, and each
provision hereof has been subject to the mutual consultation, negotiation and agreement of each of
the Parties, and shall not be construed for or against any Party hereto.

that it is being independently advised as to the Tax or securities consequences of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement and is not relying on any representation or statements made by any
other Party as to such Tax and securities consequences.
11.14 Gender. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, where appropriate the
singular shall include the plural and the masculine shall include the feminine or neuter, and
vice versa, to the extent necessary to give the terms defined herein and/or the
terms otherwise used in this Agreement the proper meanings.
11.15 Headings. The headings in this Agreement are intended solely for convenience of
reference and shall be given no effect in the construction or interpretation of this Agreement.
11.16 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each
