Section 2.7 Determination of Closing Purchase Price.

(a) Within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, the Purchaser will deliver to Seller a certificate (the “Closing Purchase Price Certificate”) executed by the Purchaser setting forth (i) an itemized statement of Company Cash of the Company as of the close of business on the day prior to the Closing Date, (ii) an itemized statement of Existing Indebtedness of the Company as of the Closing Date, (iii) a calculation of the Federal Net Operating Loss Carryforward, (iv) a calculation of the Purchase Price and (v) a calculation of the difference between the Estimated Purchase Price and the Purchase Price.

(b) If Seller delivers written notice (a “Dispute Notice”) to the Purchaser within ten (10) Business Days after receipt by Seller of the Closing Purchase Price Certificate, stating that Seller (the “Disputing Seller”) objects to any item in the Closing Purchase Price Certificate, specifying in reasonable detail the basis for such objection and setting forth the Disputing Seller’s proposed modification to such item, the Disputing Seller and the Purchaser will attempt to resolve and finally determine and agree upon such item as promptly as practicable. To the extent that any items that are components of the Estimated Purchase Price and the Purchase Price are not disputed, Seller, on the one hand, and the Purchaser, on the other hand, shall pay to the other party the difference between the Estimated Purchase Price and the Purchase Price, to the extent of such undisputed amounts, in the manner described in Section 2.7(e).

(c) If the Disputing Seller and the Purchaser are unable to agree upon the Purchase Price within ten (10) Business Days after delivery of the Dispute Notice, an independent, nationally recognized accounting firm reasonably acceptable to each of the Disputing Seller and the Purchaser, will resolve the amount of the Purchase Price. If the Purchaser and the Disputing Seller are unable to agree upon the selection of an accounting firm, the accounting firm shall be chosen by the American Arbitration Association. The accounting firm will make a determination of the Purchase Price. The accounting firm shall address only those items in dispute and may not determine a Purchase Price greater than the greatest price claimed by either party or smaller than the smallest price claimed by either party. The determination of the accounting firm will be made within sixty (60) days after being selected and shall constitute an arbitral award that is final, binding and non-appealable and upon which a judgment may be entered by a court having jurisdiction thereover. The fees, costs and expenses of the accounting firm will be borne pro rata as between the Disputing Seller, on the one hand, and the Purchaser, on the other hand, in proportion to the final allocation made by such accounting firm of the disputed items in relation to the claims made by the Disputing Seller and the Purchaser, such that the prevailing party pays the lesser proportion of such fees, costs and expenses.

(d) If Seller does not deliver a Dispute Notice to the Purchaser within fifteen (15) days after receipt by Seller of the Closing Purchase Price Certificate, the Purchase Price specified in the Closing Purchase Price Certificate will be conclusively presumed to be true and correct in all respects and will be final and binding upon the parties.

- 11 -

(e) At such time as the Purchase Price is finally determined or as agreed to by the Purchaser and Seller, either (i) the Purchaser shall pay Seller the excess, if any, of the Purchase Price over the Estimated Purchase Price or (ii) Seller shall pay to the Purchaser the excess, if any, of the Estimated Purchase Price over the Purchase Price. Any payments made under this Section 2.7(e) shall be made within three (3) Business Days following determination that such payment is required to be made hereunder, by wire transfer of immediately available funds. No adjustment to the Purchase Price pursuant to this Section 2.7 shall be considered a breach of any representation, warranty or other provision of this Agreement.

(f) The Purchaser will cause Seller and its accountants, lawyers and representatives to be given full access at all reasonable times to (and shall be allowed to make copies of) the books and records of the Company and its Subsidiaries and to any personnel of the Company or its Subsidiaries reasonably requested by such persons, in each case in connection with the final determination of the Purchase Price or any dispute relating thereto.

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 9.1 Indemnification.

(a) Indemnification of the Purchaser. Except as otherwise provided in this Article IX, the Seller (the “Seller Indemnifying Party”) agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of the Purchaser and its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, agents, employees, subsidiaries, partners, members and controlling persons (each, a “Purchaser Indemnified Party”) to the fullest extent permitted by law from and against any and all losses, injuries, demands, settlements, fines, penalties, Claims (including, without limitation, any Claim by a third party), damages, expenses (including reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel incurred by the Purchaser Indemnified Party in any action between the Seller Indemnifying Party and the Purchaser Indemnified Party or between the Purchaser Indemnified Party and any third party or otherwise) or other liabilities (collectively, “Losses”) resulting from or arising out of: (i) any breach of any representation or warranty by Seller in this Agreement (including any breach of a representation or warranty in Article IV which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be the responsibility solely of Seller making the relevant representation in such Article) or any certificate delivered by Seller pursuant to this Agreement (except for

- 39 -

the Estimated Closing Purchase Price Certificate); or (ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement by Seller in this Agreement; provided that, for purposes of this Section 9, the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements herein shall be deemed to have been made without any qualifications as to materiality and, accordingly, all references herein to “material,” “in all material respects” and similar qualifications as to materiality shall not be deemed as limiting or prohibiting Purchaser from submission of a claim for indemnification hereunder.

(b) Indemnification of the Seller. Except as otherwise provided in this Article IX, the Purchaser (the “Purchaser Indemnifying Party”) agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Seller and its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, agents, employees, subsidiaries, partners, members and controlling persons (each, a “Seller Indemnified Party”) to the fullest extent permitted by law from and against any and all Losses resulting from or arising out of: (i) any breach of any representation or warranty by the Purchaser in this Agreement or any certificate delivered by the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement; or (ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement by the Purchaser in this Agreement.

Section 9.2 Notification. Each indemnified party under this Article IX shall, promptly after the receipt of notice of the commencement of any Claim against such indemnified party in respect of which indemnity may be sought from the indemnifying party under this Article IX, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof. The omission of any indemnified party to so notify the indemnifying party of any such action shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which it may have to such indemnified party under this Article IX unless, and only to the extent that, such omission results in the indemnifying party’s being materially prejudiced thereby. In case any such Claim shall be brought against any indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof at its own expense, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party in its reasonable judgment; provided, however, that any indemnified party may, at its own expense, retain separate counsel to participate in such defense at its own expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in any Claim in which both the indemnifying party, on the one hand, and an indemnified party, on the other hand, are, or are reasonably likely to become, a party, such indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to control its own defense of such Claim if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel to such indemnified party, either (x) one or more defenses are available to the indemnified party that are not available to the indemnifying party or (y) a conflict or potential conflict exists between the indemnifying party, on the one hand, and such indemnified party, on the other hand, that would make such separate representation advisable; provided, however, that the indemnifying party (i) shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel to all indemnified parties and (ii) shall reimburse the indemnified parties for all of such fees and expenses of such counsel incurred in any action between the indemnifying party and the indemnified parties or between the indemnified parties and any third party, as such expenses are incurred. The indemnifying party agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened Claim relating to the matters contemplated

- 40 -

hereby (if any indemnified party is a party thereto or has been actually threatened to be made a party thereto) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising or that may arise out of such Claim. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any Claim effected against an indemnified party without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Section 9.3 Limitations on Indemnification of the Purchaser. The indemnification provided for in Section 9.1(a) shall be subject to the following limitations, except with respect to claims for fraud and intentional breach or misrepresentation, with respect to which this Section 9.3 shall not apply:

(b) Seller shall not be obligated to pay any amounts for indemnification for Losses arising under Section 9.1(a), except those based upon, arising out of or otherwise in respect of those arising out of fraud or an intentional breach until the aggregate amounts for indemnification under Section 9.1(a) from and after the Closing, equals $160,000 (the “Basket Amount”), whereupon Seller shall be obligated to pay all amounts for such indemnification that exceed $80,000. The Seller’s liability for Losses shall first be satisfied from the Reserve Amount and the Note and any remaining or unsatisfied Losses shall be the obligation of Seller.

(c) Seller shall be obligated to pay amounts for indemnification based on fraud or an intentional breach (in accordance with their liability as set forth in Article IX) without regard to the individual or aggregate amounts thereof and without regard to whether all other indemnification payments shall have exceeded, in the aggregate, the Basket Amount.

(d) Seller shall not be obligated to make any payment for indemnification for Losses arising under Section 9.1(a) (except those based upon, arising out of or otherwise in respect of, the Specified Representations or Article XII) in excess of a dollar amount equal to $8,000,000.

(e) Except with respect to claims based on fraud, claims for equitable relief after the Closing and claims arising pursuant to Article XII hereof, the rights of the parties under this Article IX shall be the exclusive remedy with respect to claims

resulting from or relating to any misrepresentation or breach of warranty, and each party hereby waives, to the full extent it may do so, any other rights or remedies that may arise under any applicable statute, rule or regulation with respect thereto.

(f) The indemnities herein are intended solely for the benefit of the persons expressly identified in this Article IX (and their permitted successors and assigns) and are in no way intended to, nor shall they, constitute an agreement for the benefit of, or be enforceable by, any other person.

(g) The amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided under this Article IX shall be net of any: (i) amounts actually recovered by the indemnified party under insurance policies in effect and applicable to such damages, and (ii) reserves in respect thereof reflected on the Financial Statements.

Section 9.4 Limitations on Indemnification of the Seller. The indemnification provided for in Section 9.1(b) shall be subject to the following limitations, except with respect to claims for fraud and intentional breach or misrepresentation, with respect to which this Section 9.4 shall not apply:

(b) The Purchaser shall not be obligated to pay any amounts for indemnification for Losses arising under Section 9.1(b), except those arising out of fraud or an intentional breach until the aggregate amounts for indemnification under Section 9.1(b), exclusive of those based on fraud or an intentional breach, equals the Basket Amount, whereupon the Purchaser shall be obligated to pay all amounts for such indemnification relating back to the first dollar.

(c) The Purchaser shall be obligated to pay amounts for indemnification based on fraud or an intentional breach (in accordance with its liability as set forth in Article IX) without regard to the individual or aggregate amounts thereof and without regard to whether all other indemnification payments shall have exceeded, in the aggregate, the Basket Amount.

(d) The Purchaser shall not be obligated to make any payment for indemnification for Losses arising under Section 9.1(b) (except those based upon, arising out of or otherwise in respect of fraud or an intentional breach) in excess of $8,000,000.

The Purchaser shall notify Seller of any amounts due from Seller in respect of any such Tax Return no later than ten (10) business days prior to the date on which such Tax Return is due, and Seller shall remit such payment to the Purchaser no later than five (5) business days prior to the date such Tax Return is due. Purchaser shall permit Seller to review and comment on each such Tax Return prior to filing and shall make such revisions to such Tax Returns as are reasonably requested by Seller.

(b) In the case of Tax Returns that are filed with respect to a taxable period that ends on or prior to the Closing Date, the Seller shall prepare such Tax Return in a manner consistent with past practice, except as otherwise required by law, and shall deliver any such Tax Return to Purchaser for review at least 30 days prior to the date such Tax Return is required to be filed. If Purchaser disputes any item on such Tax Return, it shall notify Seller of such disputed item (or items) and the basis for its objection. The parties shall act in good faith to resolve any such dispute prior to the date on which the relevant Tax Return is required to be filed.

The fees and expenses of such accounting firm shall be borne equally by Seller and the Purchaser.

(c) In the case of Tax Returns that are filed with respect to Straddle Periods (as defined in Section 10.6 below), the Purchaser shall prepare such Tax Return in a manner consistent with past practice, except as otherwise required by law.

Section 10.6 Straddle Periods.

(a) For purposes of this Agreement, in the case of any Taxes of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that are payable with respect to any Tax period that begins before and ends after the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”), the portion of any such Taxes that constitutes Pre-Closing Taxes shall: (i) in the case of Taxes that are either (x) based upon or related to income or receipts, or (y) imposed in connection with any sale, transfer or assignment or any deemed sale, transfer or assignment of property (real or personal, tangible or intangible), be deemed equal to the amount that would be payable if the Tax year or period ended on the Closing Date; and (ii) in the case of Taxes (other than those described in clause (i) above) that are imposed on a periodic basis with respect to the business or assets of the Company or its Subsidiaries or otherwise measured by the level of any item, be deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire Straddle Period (or, in the case of such Taxes determined on an arrears basis, the amount of such Taxes for the immediately preceding Tax period) multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period. For purposes of clause (i) of the preceding sentence, any exemption, deduction, credit or other item (including, without limitation, the effect of any graduated rates of tax) that is calculated on an annual basis shall be allocated to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date on a pro rata basis determined by multiplying the total amount of such item allocated to the Straddle Period times a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period. In the case of any Tax based upon or measured by capital (including net worth or long-term debt) or intangibles, any amount thereof required to be allocated under this Section 10.6 shall be computed by reference to the level of such items on the Closing Date. All determinations necessary to give effect to the foregoing allocations shall be made in a manner consistent with past practice of the Company and its Subsidiaries. The parties hereto will, to the extent permitted by applicable law, elect with the relevant Governmental Authority to treat a portion of any Straddle Period as a short taxable period ending as of the close of business on the Closing Date.

Accordingly, Seller covenants and agrees as follows:

(a) Non-Compete. For a period of five (5) years following the Closing (the “Restricted Period”), Seller shall not in the United States, directly or indirectly, (i) engage in the Company Business for Seller’s own account; (ii) except as agreed to in writing by the Purchaser and Seller, render any services to any person engaged in such activities; or (iii) become interested in any such person in any capacity, including as a partner, shareholder, principal, agent, trustee or consultant; provided, however, Seller may own, directly or indirectly, solely as an investment, securities of any person traded on any national securities exchange if Seller is not a controlling person of, or a member of a group which controls, such person and does not, directly or indirectly, own 1% or more of any class of securities of such person.

(b) Confidential Information; Personal Relationships. Seller promises and agrees that, either during the Restricted Period or at any time thereafter, Seller will not disclose to any person not employed by the Company or not engaged to render services to the Company, and that Seller will not use for the benefit of Seller or others, any confidential information or Trade Secrets of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries and other affiliates obtained by Seller while Seller was a stockholder of the Company; provided, however, that this provision shall not preclude Seller from use or disclosure of information if (i) use or disclosure of such information shall be required by applicable Law or Order of any Governmental Authority, (ii) use or disclosure of such information is reasonably required in connection with any Claim against or involving Seller, (iii) such information is readily ascertainable from public or published information or trade sources (other than information known generally to the public as a result of a violation of this Section 12.1 by any Seller); or (iv) use or disclosure of such information is reasonably required in connection with Seller’s continued employment with the Company or any of the Subsidiaries.

(c) Property of the Company. All memoranda, notes, lists, records and other Documents (and all copies thereof), including such items stored in computer memories, on microfiche or by any other means, made or compiled by or on behalf of Seller, or made available to Seller relating to the Company, are and shall be the property of the Company and shall be delivered to the Company promptly after the Closing or at any other time on request.

- 49 -

(d) Non-Solicitation. For a period of five (5) years from and after the Closing Date, Seller shall not directly or indirectly: (i) induce or attempt to induce any employee or independent contractor of the Company or any Affiliate to leave the employ (or other relationship) of the Company or such Affiliate in any way interfere with the relationship between the Company or any Affiliate and any such Person; (ii) hire any person who was an employee or independent contractor of the Company or any Affiliate on the date of this Agreement or on the Closing Date; or (iii) induce or attempt to induce any customer, supplier, licensee, licensor, franchisee or other business relation of the Company or any Affiliate to cease doing business with the Company or such Affiliate, or in any way interfere with the relationship between any such customer, supplier, licensee, licensor, franchisee or business relation and the Company or any Affiliate (including making any negative statements or communications about the Company or its Affiliates). In addition, all employees of the Company shall execute and be bound by Purchaser’s standard form of employee agreement providing for non-solicitation of either employees or customers of Purchaser for a period of one (1) year after their termination of employment.

Section 12.2 Rights and Remedies Upon Breach. If Seller breaches, or threatens to commit a breach of, any of the provisions of Section 12.1 (the “Restrictive Covenants”), the Purchaser, the Company and the Subsidiaries shall have the following rights and remedies, each of which rights and remedies shall be independent of the others and severally enforceable, and each of which is in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available to the Purchaser, the Company under Law or in equity:

(a) Specific Performance. The right and remedy to have the Restrictive Covenants specifically enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction, it being agreed that any breach or threatened breach of the Restrictive Covenants would cause irreparable injury to the Purchaser, the Company and that money damages would not provide an adequate remedy to the Purchaser, the Company.

(b) Accounting. The right and remedy to require Seller to account for and pay over to the Purchaser, or the Company, as the case may be, all compensation, profits, monies, accruals, increments or other benefits derived or received by Seller as the result of any transactions by Seller constituting a breach of the Restrictive Covenants.

Section 12.3 Severability of Covenants. Seller acknowledges and agrees that as to Seller the Restrictive Covenants are reasonable and valid in geographical and temporal scope and in all other respects. If any court determines that any of the Restrictive Covenants, or any part thereof, is invalid or unenforceable as to the Seller or to Seller, the remainder of the Restrictive Covenants shall not thereby be affected and shall be given full effect as to the Seller or the Seller, without regard to the invalid portions.

- 50 -

Section 12.4 Blue-Penciling. If any court determines that any of the Restrictive Covenants, or any part thereof, is unenforceable as to the Seller or to Seller because of the duration or geographic scope of such provision, such court shall have the power to reduce the duration or scope of such provision, as the case may be, as to Seller or Seller, and, in its reduced form, such provision shall then be enforceable.

Section 12.5 Enforceability in Jurisdictions. The Purchaser and Seller intend to and hereby confer jurisdiction to enforce the Restrictive Covenants upon the courts of any jurisdiction within the geographical scope of the Restrictive Covenants. If the courts of any one or more of such jurisdictions hold the Restrictive Covenants unenforceable by reason of the breadth of such scope or otherwise, it is the intention of the Purchaser and each Seller that such determination not bar or in any way affect the Purchaser’s, the Company’s or the Subsidiaries’ right to the relief provided above in the courts of any other jurisdiction within the geographical scope of the Restrictive Covenants, as to breaches of the Restrictive Covenants in such other respective jurisdictions, the Restrictive Covenants as they relate to each jurisdiction being, for this purpose, severable into diverse and independent covenants.
