(a) In consideration of the sale, assignment and delivery of the Purchased Shares as contemplated herein, Purchaser shall pay the Parent as provided herein and the Parent shall accept a purchase price of

(i)

Four Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($4,500,000), the “Fixed Portion of the Purchase Price”) as adjusted in accordance with Section 1.2(b).

(ii)

Additional payments in an amount equal to five percent (5%) of Net Sales (as hereinafter defined) for each quarterly period ending March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 commencing with the quarterly period commencing April 1, 2017 (each a “Quarter”) until the aggregate payments made to Parent equals One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000) (the “Variable Portion of the Purchase Price,” and together with the Fixed Portion of the Purchase Price, the “Purchase Price”). The Variable Portion of the Purchase Price shall be payable in quarterly installments on the thirtieth (30th) day immediately following each March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year (each a “Payment Period”), except that the initial payment shall be in respect of the period commencing April 1, 2017.

The term “Net Sales” shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in Appendix 2.3.

(b) The Fixed Portion of the Purchase Price shall be subject to adjustment as follows:

(i)

The Fixed Portion of the Purchase Price shall be increased to the extent the Adjusted Working Capital of the Company as of the Effective Date is more than $50,000 in excess of the Adjusted Working Capital of the Company as of December 31, 2016, to wit, $733,776.66 (the “Working Capital Surplus Amount”).

(ii)

The Fixed Portion of the Purchase Price shall be decreased to the extent the Adjusted Working Capital of the Company as of the Effective Date is more than $50,000 below the Adjusted Working Capital of the Company as of December 31, 2016, to wit, $733,776.66 (the “Working Capital Deficit Amount”).

(c) For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Adjusted Working Capital” as of any date shall be equal to the sum as of such date of the cash, accounts receivable, other receivables, inventories (raw materials, supplies and work-in-process), deposits, and prepaid expenses of the Company minus the sum as of such date of the accounts payable, other accrued expenses, accrued employee compensation and benefits and customer advances of the Company. For purposes hereof, unless the parties agree otherwise 12:01 AM of the Effective Date is the date the parties will use for estimating the adjustments pursuant to this Section 1.2.

(d) The Fixed Portion of the Purchase Price as so adjusted is hereinafter referred to as the “Adjusted Fixed Portion of the Purchase Price.”

1.3 Determination of Adjusted Fixed Portion of the Purchase Price.

(a) The parties have already exchanged a computation of the Adjusted Working Capital as of December 31, 2016. No later than three days prior to the Closing Date, the Parent will deliver to Purchaser a reasonable good faith estimate of the Adjusted Working Capital of the Company as of the Effective Date (the “Estimated Adjusted Working Capital”). The Parent will provide Purchaser access to such back up data related to the preparation of the Estimated Adjusted Working Capital as Purchaser reasonably requests. Upon receipt of the Estimated Adjusted Working Capital, the parties will determine whether there is a Working Capital Surplus Amount or Working Capital Deficit Amount and the “Estimated Fixed Portion of the Purchase Price,” based upon the Estimated Adjusted Working Capital.

(b) Not later than thirty (30) days following the Closing Date, Purchaser, with the full cooperation of the Parent, shall prepare a statement of the Company’s Adjusted Working Capital (the “Closing Statement”) as at the Effective Date and deliver the Closing Statement to the Parent, together with a certificate of Purchaser’s principal financial and accounting officer specifying the Adjusted Fixed Portion of the Purchase Price. Purchaser will compute the Adjusted Working Capital consistent with the manner in which the Estimated Adjusted Working Capital was computed and the Adjusted Fixed Portion of the Purchase Price shall equal the Fixed Portion of the Purchase Price increased by the Working Capital Surplus Amount or decreased by the Working Capital Deficit Amount, as the case may be. Purchaser will provide Parent access to such back up data related to the preparation of the Adjusted Working Capital as Purchaser reasonably requests. The Closing Statement shall be prepared on a basis consistent with the Books and Records of the Company and the methodology used in preparing the Estimated Adjusted Working Capital.

(c) The Parent shall have fifteen (15) days from the date of receipt of the Closing Statement to review the Closing Statement and the Adjusted Fixed Portion of the Purchase Price reflected thereon. If the Parent does not agree with the Closing Statement, within such fifteen (15) day period, it shall deliver a written objection to Purchaser that shall specify in reasonable detail the basis for the objection and a computation of the Adjusted Fixed Portion of the Purchase Price asserted by the Parent (the “Objection”). Upon Purchaser’s receipt of the Objection, Purchaser and the Parent shall negotiate in good faith to resolve the Objection, but if the Objection cannot be resolved by negotiation within thirty (30) days after Purchaser’s receipt of the Objection, Purchaser and the Parent shall submit any disputed items included in the Objection, to a reputable certified public accounting firm as to which Purchaser and the Parent have no reasonable objection (the “Accounting Arbitrator”), who shall review the same, together with the Closing Statement (together with any relevant accounting records, the “Determination Materials”) and, based solely upon the Determination Materials, determine the Adjusted Fixed Portion of the Purchase Price and notify the parties in writing of its determination of the Adjusted Fixed Portion of the Purchase Price within thirty (30) days following the receipt of the Determination Materials, which determination shall be final, conclusive and binding on all parties. The date upon which the Adjusted Fixed Portion of the Purchase Price is determined or agreed upon as provided above is hereinafter referred to as the “Adjustment Date”.

(d) The fees and expenses of the Accounting Arbitrator shall be shared equally by the Parent and Purchaser.

(e) If the Adjusted Fixed Portion of the Purchase Price is less than the Estimated Fixed Portion of the Purchase Price, the Parent shall pay the deficit to Purchaser by wire transfer within two (2) business days of the determination of the Adjusted Fixed Portion of the Purchase Price and if the Adjusted Fixed Portion of the Purchase Price exceeds the Estimated Fixed Portion of the Purchase Price, Purchaser shall pay the excess to the Parent, by wire transfer, within two (2) business days of the determination of the Adjusted Fixed Portion of the Purchase Price.

Appendix 2.3

AGREEMENT

This Agreement is made as of January 27, 2017 between XXXXX TOOL, INC. (“Xxxxx”) and AIR NDUSTRIES GROUP (“Parent”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

The Stock Purchase Agreement being entered into as of the date hereof among Xxxxx, Parent, AMK Welding, Inc. (“AMK”) and Air Industries Group Poland, LLC, provides for the payment by Xxxxx to Parent of an amount equal to five (5%) per cent (the “Additional Payments”) of the Net Sales of AMK commencing April 1, 2017, until the aggregate Additional Payments made to Parent equal One Million Five Hundred Thousand ($1,500,000) Dollars.

The parties are entering into this Agreement to confirm certain rights and procedures with respect to the Additional Payments.

All capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Stock Purchase Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

DEFINITIONS

As used throughout this Agreement, the following terms, whether used in the singular or the plural, shall have the following meanings:

"Affiliate" shall mean any corporation, partnership or other business entity which owns or controls, is owned or controlled by or is under common ownership or control with a party to this Agreement. A corporation, partnership or other business entity shall be regarded as in control of another corporation if it owns or directly or indirectly controls at least forty percent (40%) of the voting stock of said other corporation, or in the absence of such ownership, it possesses, directly or indirectly, the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of said other corporation.

"Net Sales" shall mean the revenue received by AMK from the sale of products to or the provision of services to Third Parties less: (i) credits or allowances actually granted upon claims or returns regardless of the party requesting the return; (ii) freight charges; and (iii) taxes or other governmental charges levied on or measured by the amount invoiced by AMK. In the case of sales to or the provision of services to an Affiliate, the Net Sales attributed to such product or service shall be based upon the price that would have been charged in an arms’ length transaction.

"Third Party" shall mean parties other than AMK, Xxxxx and their respective Affiliates.

ARTICLE 2

ADDITIONAL PAYMENTS, REPORTS AND ACCOUNTING

2.1 Xxxxx and Parent have agreed that Xxxxx shall pay Parent an amount equal to 5% of the Net Sales of AMK for each quarterly period ending March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31, commencing with the quarterly period commencing April 1, 2017 and ending June 30, 2017 (each, a “Quarter”), which payments in the aggregate shall not exceed One Million Five Hundred Thousand ($1,500,000) Dollars.

2.2 Within thirty days of the end of each Quarter, AMK shall furnish or cause to be furnished to Parent a report covering such Quarter showing: (i) the Net Sales for such Quarter; (ii) the amount of the Additional Payment, payable in US Dollars, due Parent in respect of such sales for such Quarter with a summary computation of the Additional Payment for such Quarter; and (iii) withholding taxes, if any, required by law to be deducted in respect of such Additional Payment. The report shall be accompanied by the payment of amount of the Additional Payment due at that time.

2.3 Parent shall have the right prior to the payment of $1,500,000 in Additional Payments hereunder to have an independent accountant to whom Xxxxx has no reasonable objection, examine the relevant books and records of account of AMK during normal business hours and no more than once during each calendar year, to verify the accuracy of the reports and to determine whether appropriate payment has been made by Xxxxx hereunder.

2.4 Any payments due hereunder on sales made by AMK outside the United States shall be payable in United States Dollars at the prevailing rate of exchange of the currency of the country in which the sales are made (said exchange rate being taken as the rates published in the Wall Street Journal under the caption "Currency Trading -- Exchange Rates" on the last business day of the Quarter for which the Additional Payment is payable).

2.5 Any sum required under the laws of the United States or any other country to be withheld by Xxxxx from payments to be made hereunder shall be promptly paid by Xxxxx to the appropriate tax authorities and Xxxxx shall furnish Parent with official tax receipts or other appropriate evidence issued by the appropriate tax authorities sufficient to enable Parent to support a claim for income tax credit in respect of any sum so withheld.

2.6 Parent recognizes that Xxxxx shall have the right to set off against any Additional Payment payable to Parent any amount due Xxxxx in respect of the indemnification provisions contained in the Stock Purchase Agreement.

2.7 Xxxxx acknowledges that the Additional Payment provided for herein is additional compensation for the stock of AMK being acquired by Xxxxx concurrently herewith. Xxxxx agrees that as a condition to the sale by it of the stock of AMK or substantially all of AMK’s assets prior to the payment of the entire $1,500,000 payable hereunder, including a transfer in connection with a reorganization of Xxxxx and its affiliates, Xxxxx shall cause the transferee of such stock or assets to assume the obligation to pay the balance of the Additional Payments that may accrue hereunder.

For the avoidance of duplication, Sections 11.3 through 11.10 of the Stock Purchase Agreement are incorporated herein and shall govern the rights and obligations of the parties in respect of this Agreement.
