(a) Seller shall be required to deliver the Company on the Closing Date with Working Capital equal to $7,960,000 (the “Working Capital Floor”). The parties acknowledge that insufficient information will be available on the Closing Date to determine the actual Working Capital on such date, and accordingly, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser no later than two business days prior to the Closing Date a good faith estimate of Working Capital as of the Closing Date together with appropriate supporting documentation. If the Company is delivered on the Closing Date with such estimated Working Capital below the Working Capital Floor, the Purchase Price shall be adjusted downward dollar-for-dollar in the amount of the deficiency.

(i) As soon as practicable following the Closing, with the assistance of the Company’s accountants, Purchaser shall prepare a draft statement of actual Working Capital as of the Closing Date (the “Draft Working Capital Closing Statement”). The Draft Working Capital Closing Statement shall be prepared in conformity with the definition of Working Capital and shall be delivered together with such documentation as is reasonably necessary to substantiate the calculations shown therein. Purchaser shall deliver the Draft Working Capital Closing Statement and documentation to Seller not later than 90 calendar days following the Closing Date.

Any such objections shall be set forth in reasonable detail in a report (the “Seller’s Report”) that shall indicate the grounds upon which Seller disputes that the Draft Working Capital Closing Statement has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement. Purchaser shall provide to Seller full access, during normal business hours and with reasonable advance notice, to the books and records of the Company and to the Company’s personnel and accountants in connection with Seller’s preparation of the Seller’s Report, provided that Seller shall not interfere with the Business in the exercise of such right.

(iii) Within 10 calendar days after the receipt by Purchaser of the Seller’s Report, Seller and Purchaser shall endeavor in good faith to agree on any matters in dispute.

(iv) If Purchaser and Seller are unable to agree on any matters in dispute within such 10 calendar day period after receipt by Purchaser of the Seller’s Report, the matters in dispute will be submitted for resolution to the office of Deloitte & Touche located in Phoenix, Arizona or such other independent accounting firm of national reputation as may be mutually acceptable to Purchaser and Seller (the “Independent Accounting Firm”), which Independent Accounting Firm shall, within 30 calendar days after such submission, determine and issue a written report to Purchaser and Seller regarding, such disputed items, which written report shall be final and binding upon the parties.

In acting under this Agreement, the Independent Accounting Firm shall be entitled to the privileges and immunities of arbitrators.

(v) The Working Capital statement incorporating the resolution of matters in dispute with respect to Working Capital (or, if a Seller’s Report is not provided within the time prescribed in Section 2.3(b)(ii), the Draft Working Capital Closing Statement) is referred to as the “Working Capital Closing Statement.” The Working Capital Closing Statement shall have the legal effect of an arbitral award and shall be final, binding and conclusive on the parties.

(vi) If the Working Capital calculated by reference to the Working Capital Closing Statement (the “Closing Working Capital”) is less than the estimated Working Capital, the Purchase Price shall be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by an amount equal to such shortfall (the “Working Capital Shortfall”). In such event, Seller shall pay to Purchaser the amount of the Working Capital Shortfall within 10 calendar days after the date of receipt by Seller of the Working Capital Closing Statement as finally established pursuant to this Section 2.3(b). If the Closing Working Capital is more than the estimated Working Capital described in Section 2.3(a), the Purchaser Price shall be increased on a dollar-for-dollar basis by an amount equal to such surplus (the “Working Capital Surplus”). In such event, Purchaser shall pay Seller in cash the amount of the Working Capital Surplus within 10 calendar days after the date of receipt by Purchaser of the Working Capital Closing Statement as finally established pursuant to this Section 2.3(b).

2.5 Bonus Payment.

(a) Purchaser shall pay Seller a one-time bonus payment (the “Bonus Payment”), based on the percentage representing the Company’s actual Gross Profit for its 2006 fiscal year ending December 31, 2006, compared to its forecasted Gross Profit of $17,907,676 (the “Gross Profit Achievement”), in the amount, calculated on a straight line pro rata basis, set forth opposite such percentage in the table below:


Gross Profit Achievement		Bonus Payment
<85%		$0
85%		$1,000,000

100%		$5,000,000

(a) For purposes of this Section 11.3, a party against which indemnification may be sought is referred to as the “Indemnifying Party” and the party which may be entitled to indemnification is referred to as the “Indemnified Party.”

(b) If any third party shall notify the Indemnified Party with respect to any matter (a “Third Party Claim”) that may give rise to a claim for indemnification against the Indemnifying Party under this Section 11, then the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify each Indemnifying Party thereof in writing setting forth, in reasonable detail, the nature and basis of the claim and the amount thereof, to the extent known, and any other relevant documentation in the possession of the Indemnified Party (a “Notice of Claim”); provided, however, that failure on the part of the Indemnified Party to notify any Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent) the Indemnifying Party is thereby materially prejudiced by such failure.

such claim, suit, action or proceeding, and that the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the entire amount of any Loss, at any time during the course of any such claim, suit, action or proceeding, assume the defense thereof, provided that the Indemnifying Party’s counsel is reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, and the Indemnifying Party shall thereafter consult with the Indemnified Party upon the Indemnified Party’s reasonable request for such consultation from time to time with respect to such claim, suit, action or proceeding.

If, however, the Indemnifying Party reasonably determines, based upon written advice of counsel, that the representation by the Indemnifying Party’s counsel of both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party would present a conflict of interest, then such Indemnified Party may employ separate counsel (Indemnifying Party’s consent to the choice of counsel is required, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) to represent or defend it in any such claim, action, suit or proceeding and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of one such separate counsel. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any such claim, suit, action or proceeding, all of the Parties hereto shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof.

(d) Any settlement or compromise made or caused to be made by the Indemnified Party or the Indemnifying Party, as the case may be, of any such claim, suit, action or proceeding of the kind referred to in this Section 11.3 shall also be binding upon the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be, in the same manner as if a final judgment or decree had been entered by a court of competent jurisdiction in the amount of such settlement or compromise, provided that no obligation, restriction or Loss shall be imposed on the Indemnified Party as a result of such settlement without its prior written consent. The Indemnified Party will give the Indemnifying Party at least 30 days’ notice of any proposed settlement or compromise of any claim, suit, action or proceeding it is defending, during which time the Indemnifying Party may reject such proposed settlement or compromise; provided that from and after such rejection, the Indemnifying Party shall be obligated to assume the defense of and full and complete liability and responsibility for such claim, suit, action or proceeding and any and all Losses in connection therewith in excess of the amount of unindemnifiable Losses which the Indemnified Party would have been obligated to pay under the proposed settlement or compromise.

Purchaser shall promptly pay to Seller upon receipt of demand therefor (which demand shall be accompanied by copies of the documentation and computations described in the immediately following sentence) as additional Purchase Price an amount equal to the increased Taxes, if any, incurred by Seller with respect to the year in which the Closing occurs and the year in which any payments are made pursuant to this provision (including any additional Taxes in respect of such amounts) as a result of any Section 338(h)(10) Election or analogous elections made such that Seller will receive the same after-Tax proceeds with respect to the year in which the Closing occurs and the year in which any payments are made pursuant to this provision as if Seller had sold stock and no Section 338(h)(10) Election or analogous elections had been made. Such determinations shall be based upon documentation and computations made by Seller with respect to amounts due hereunder presented to Purchaser. Seller shall provide such documentation and computations to Purchaser no later than 90 calendar days after (i) the Closing Date and (ii) the date of any payment of additional Purchase Price giving rise to the obligation to pay additional amounts hereunder; provided, however, that Seller’s failure to provide such documentation and computations within such time shall not constitute a waiver of its rights to additional amounts hereunder. Any item of income, expense, gain, or loss (other than any amount in respect of allocations of Purchase Price in connection with a Section 338(h)(10) Election or additional amounts payable hereunder) occurring after the Closing Date shall not be considered in calculating increased Taxes.

13.4 Returns

(a) Purchaser shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, and timely file, or cause to be timely filed, all Returns for periods that end after the Closing Date.

(b) If a 338(h)(10) election pursuant to Section 13.3 is not made by Purchaser, such Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the past practices of Seller and the Company in preparing Returns. Purchaser shall furnish Seller drafts of Returns as proposed to be filed for periods that end after the Closing Date no later than 30 calendar days prior to the due date (without extensions) for the filing of such Returns for Seller’s review and approval. Seller shall have 15 calendar days to review such Returns, and shall, at or prior to the end of such period, furnish its approval of such Returns or provide its comments and modifications to such Returns. Purchaser shall accept Seller’s comments and modifications to such Returns, and such Returns, as modified to reflect Seller’s comments and modifications, shall be deemed to have been approved by Seller. If Purchaser disagrees with or refuses to accept any of Seller’s comments or modifications, the parties shall consult and cooperate in good faith to resolve such disagreements and refusals, and the Returns as agreed to after such consultation shall be filed in such form as agreed to. If, however, the parties cannot reach agreement within 30 calendar days after Seller’s delivery of its comments and modifications to the draft Returns as originally proposed by Purchaser, the parties shall refer the resolution of such disagreement to a nationally recognized accounting firm reasonably acceptable to both

parties for final resolution of such disagreement. Such accounting firm’s decision shall be binding on both parties, and shall be made not later than seven calendar days prior to the due date (including extensions) for the filing of such Returns. Each party shall bear 50% of the costs of such accounting firm incurred in connection therewith.

13.5 Mutual Cooperation. The parties hereto shall cooperate with each other to achieve the purpose of this Agreement and shall execute such other and further documents and take such other and further actions as may be necessary or convenient to effect the transaction described herein.

13.6 No Implied Representations. Purchaser and Seller acknowledge that, except as expressly provided in Section 4 and Section 5, neither party hereto, and none of the representatives of either party hereto, has made or is making any representations or warranties whatsoever, implied or otherwise.

13.7 Public Announcements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, each party to this Agreement hereby agrees with the other party hereto that, without first consulting with the other party, except as may be required to comply with the requirements of any applicable Laws, and the rules and regulations of each stock exchange upon which the securities of one of the parties is listed, if any, no press release or similar public announcement or communication shall, prior to the Closing, be made or caused to be made concerning the execution or performance of this Agreement.

13.8 Materiality. For purposes of this Agreement, a Contract, obligation, liability, transaction, change, breach, encumbrance, proceeding or other matter or event shall not be deemed to be “material” unless the existence or occurrence of such matter or event would, by itself, cause a reasonable purchaser to reverse its decision to enter into a transaction of the type contemplated by this Agreement.

13.9 Arbitration. Any dispute that the parties are unable to resolve through mediation will be submitted to arbitration in accordance with the following procedures:

(a) Demand for Arbitration; Location. Either party may demand arbitration by giving the other party written notice to such effect, which notice will describe, in reasonable detail, the facts and legal grounds forming the basis for the filing party’s request for relief and will include a statement of the total amount of damages claimed, if any, and any other remedy sought by that party. The arbitration will be held before one neutral arbitrator in Phoenix, Arizona before a mutually agreeable nationally or regionally recognized arbitration organization utilizing retired judges of that region such as J.A.M.S., and will proceed in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). If the parties are unable to agree on the organization to administer the arbitration, it will be administered by the AAA under its procedures for large and complex cases. There will be no discovery in such arbitration other than document requests for documents specifically related to this Agreement and the transaction contemplated herein, which documents will be produced within 15 calendar days after such requests. Pending the arbitrator’s determination of the merits of

the dispute, either Party may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction to seek injunctive or other extraordinary relief.

(b) Award. The decision of, and award rendered by, the arbitrator will be final and binding on the parties. Upon the request of a party, the arbitrator’s award will include written findings of fact and conclusions of law. Judgment on the award may be entered in and enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction.

(c) Attorney’s Fees. The losing party shall pay the prevailing party’s attorney’s fees, costs and expenses (including filing fees) with respect to the arbitration, unless otherwise determined by the arbitrator.

13.10 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with, and governed in all respects by, the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law.

13.11 Notices. All notices and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given and duly delivered when received by the intended recipient at the following address (or at such other address as the intended recipient shall have specified in a written notice given to the other party hereto):

13.14 Parties in Interest. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to provide any rights or remedies to any Person (including any employee or creditor of the Company) other than the parties hereto.

In the event that any provision of this Agreement, or the application of such provision to any Person or set of circumstances, shall be determined to be invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Agreement, and the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is determined to be invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable, shall not be affected and shall continue to be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. The parties further agree to replace such invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

13.16 Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that Purchaser would suffer irreparable damage in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that prior to the Closing, Purchaser shall be entitled to seek to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of the United States or any state having jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

13.17 Exclusive Remedies After Closing.

13.18 Counterparts.

13.20 Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding of Purchaser and Seller and supersedes all other agreements and understandings between Purchaser and Seller relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

13.21 Waiver. No failure on the part of either party hereto to exercise any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, and no delay on the part of either party hereto in exercising any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, shall operate as a waiver thereof; and no single or partial exercise of any such power, right, privilege or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right, privilege or remedy.

13.22 Amendments. This Agreement may not be amended, modified, altered or supplemented except by means of a written instrument executed by Purchaser, Seller, and the Company.
