For a period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the date that is the later of one (1) year after the Closing Date or, if the Vendor or its Affiliate has entered into an Employment Agreement, six (6) months after the expiration or termination of the Vendor’s or its Affiliate’s Employment Agreement (the “Restricted Period”), Vendor shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, directly or indirectly: (i) engage in or assist others in engaging in any business that would be directly or indirectly competitive with the Target Corporations as of the Closing Date in the Territory; (ii) have an interest in any Person that engages directly or indirectly in any business that would be directly or indirectly competitive with the Target Corporations as of the Closing Date in the Territory in any capacity, including as a partner, shareholder, member, employee, principal, agent, trustee or consultant; or (iii) intentionally

interfere in any material respect with the business relationships (whether formed before or after the date of this Agreement) between the Target Corporations and customers or suppliers of the Target Corporations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Vendor may own, directly or indirectly, solely as an investment, securities of any Person traded on any stock exchange if Vendor is not a controlling Person of, or a member of a group that controls, such Person and does not, directly or indirectly, own 5% or more of any class of securities of such Person.

(b)

During the Restricted Period, Vendor shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, hire or solicit any Employee or encourage any Employee to leave his or her employment or hire any Employee who has left such employment, except pursuant to a general solicitation that is not directed specifically to any such employees; provided that nothing in this Section 5.04(b) shall prevent Vendor or any of its Affiliates from hiring: (i) any Employee whose employment has been terminated by the Target Corporations or Purchaser; or (ii) after 180 days from the date of termination of employment, any Employee whose employment has been terminated by the Employee.

(c)

During the Restricted Period, Vendor shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, solicit or entice, or attempt to solicit or entice, any clients or customers of the Target Corporations or potential clients or customers of the Target Corporations for purposes of diverting their business or services from the Target Corporations.

(d)

Vendor acknowledges that a breach or threatened breach of this Section 5.08 would give rise to irreparable harm to Purchaser, for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy, and hereby agrees that, in the event of a breach or a threatened breach by Vendor of any such obligations, Purchaser shall, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies that may be available to it in respect of such breach, be entitled to equitable relief, including a temporary restraining order, an interim or permanent injunction, specific performance and any other relief that may be available from a court of competent equitable jurisdiction (without any requirement to post a bond or other security).

(e)

Vendor acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 5.04 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of Purchaser and constitute a material inducement to Purchaser’s entering into this Agreement and consummating the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The covenants contained in this Section 5.04 and each provision hereof are severable and distinct covenants and provisions. The invalidity or unenforceability of any such covenant or provision as written shall not invalidate or render unenforceable the remaining covenants or provisions hereof, and any such invalidity or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such covenant or provision in any other jurisdiction.

(f)

Restrictive Covenant. The parties hereto intend that the conditions set forth in section 56.4(7) of the Tax Act have been satisfied such that section 56.4(5) of the Tax Act applies to any “restrictive covenants” (as defined in section 56.4(1) of the Tax Act) granted by Vendor under this Agreement with respect to the Business (collectively, the “Restrictive Covenants”). Accordingly, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that: (i) no proceeds shall be received or receivable by Vendor for granting the Restrictive Covenants for purposes of section 56.4(7)(d) of the Tax Act; and (ii) the Restrictive Covenants are integral to this Agreement and have been granted to maintain or preserve the fair market value of the Shares.

Section 5.05Other Approvals and Consents

(a)

Vendor and Purchaser shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to give all notices to, and obtain all consents from, all third parties that are described in Section 3.05 and Section 4.02 of the Disclosure Schedules.

(b)

If any consent, approval or authorization necessary to preserve any right or benefit under any Contract to which the Target Corporations are a party is not obtained before the Closing, Vendor shall, after the Closing, cooperate with Purchaser and the Target Corporations in attempting to obtain such consent, approval or authorization as promptly thereafter as practicable. If such consent, approval or authorization cannot be obtained, Vendor shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Target Corporations with the rights and benefits of the affected Contract for the term thereof and, if Vendor provides such rights and benefits, the Target Corporations shall assume all obligations and burdens thereunder.

Section 5.06Books and Records

(a)

To facilitate the resolution of any claims made against or incurred by Vendor before the Closing or, for any other reasonable purpose, for a period of ten (10) years after the Closing, Purchaser shall:

(i)

retain the Books and Records (including personnel files) of the Target Corporations relating to periods before the Closing in a manner reasonably consistent with the prior practices of the Target Corporations; and

(ii)

upon reasonable notice, afford the Representatives of Vendor reasonable access (including the right to make, at Vendor’s expense, photocopies), during normal business hours, to the Books and Records.

(b)

To facilitate the resolution of any claims made by or against or incurred by the Target Corporations after the Closing, or for any other reasonable purpose, for a period of ten (10) years after the Closing, Vendor shall:

(i)

retain the Books and Records (including personnel files) of Vendor that relate to the Target Corporations and its operations for periods before the Closing; and

(ii)

upon reasonable notice, afford the Representatives of Purchaser or the Target Corporations reasonable access (including the right to make, at Purchaser’s expense, photocopies), during normal business hours, to the Books and Records.

(c)

Neither Purchaser nor Vendor shall be obligated to provide the other party with access to any Books or Records (including personnel files) under this Section 5.06 where such access would violate any Law.

Section 5.07Benefit Plans and Employees

(a)

On Closing, the participation of the Employees in the Benefit Plans will cease and Vendor shall, subject to this Section 5.07(a) and Section 5.07(d) cease to have any liability or obligation to the Corporation, the Employees or any former employees of the Corporation.

(b)

Purchaser agrees to provide or cause the Target Corporations to establish and provide, effective as of the Closing Date, benefit plans that contain benefit provisions that are substantially similar in the aggregate to those provided under the existing Benefit Plans immediately before the Closing Date (the “Purchaser Benefit Plans”). Purchaser will use

commercially reasonable efforts to obtain waiver of insurability requirements, actively at work requirements, pre-existing conditions, exclusions and eligibility periods in respect of the Purchaser Benefit Plans and shall honour any deductible, co-payments, co-insurance or out-of-pocket expenses paid or incurred by such Employees, including with respect to their covered dependents, under the Benefit Plans from the beginning of the current coverage period to the Closing Date, as though such amounts had been paid in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Purchaser Benefit Plans; provided that, during the period from the Closing Date to the end of the current coverage period, for the purposes of determining the maximum benefit under a Purchaser Benefit Plan, Purchaser may recognize amounts that had been paid before the Closing in such current coverage period in respect of an Employee under a corresponding Benefit Plan. Without limiting the foregoing, any Employee’s maximum benefit amount recognized under a Benefit Plan will remain unchanged and in place for the remainder of the calendar year under the comparable Purchaser Benefit Plan upon Closing. Nothing in this Section 5.07(b) prohibits Purchaser from changing any of the provisions under the Purchaser Benefit Plans at any time.

(c)

Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Vendor in respect of any Liability owed to Employees to the extent resulting from the Purchaser Benefit Plans or constructive dismissal or breach of contract claims that arise after Closing relating to the Purchaser Benefit Plans or the other terms and conditions of the Employees after Closing but excluding any Liability that Purchaser was unaware of as a result of a breach by Vendor of any of its representations and warranties in this Agreement (without reference to any survival period otherwise provided in this Agreement).

(d)

Purchaser shall not be responsible for Pre-Closing Benefit Liability or any Equity Compensation Plan Liability, and Vendor shall indemnify Purchaser for any, and all, Pre-Closing Benefit Liability and Equity Compensation Liability under Section 7.02.

Section 5.08Pre-Closing Tax Period and Closing Date Tax Year

(a)

On or before the statutory due date, Vendor shall prepare in accordance with applicable Law and past practice of the Target Corporations and after providing Purchaser with a reasonable opportunity (which, in any event, shall not be fewer than 15 Business Days before the date on which such Tax Returns are required to be filed) to review and, in the case of any Tax Returns upon receipt of Purchaser’s approval, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, file, on behalf of and in the name of the Corporation, all income Tax Returns of the Target Corporations required by Law to be filed for any Pre-Closing Tax Period of the Target Corporations that are not required to be filed on or before the Closing Date.

(b)

(c)

After Closing, Purchaser shall provide, and shall cause the Target Corporations to provide, to Vendor such information and assistance as is reasonably requested by the Vendor for the purposes of preparing the Tax Returns referred to in Section 5.08(a).

The parties will inform each other of, and cooperate with each other in respect of, any audit inquiries with respect to any Tax Return involving the Target Corporations in respect of any Pre-Closing Tax Period or in connection with the Closing.

(e)

If Purchaser or the Target Corporations receive an assessment or reassessment (each, an “Assessment”) from any Governmental Authority in respect of any Tax Return in respect of any Pre-Closing Tax Period or any Tax Return filed under the Tax Act for the Closing Date Tax Year, Purchaser shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Vendor a copy of the Assessment within 30 days of receiving the Assessment, provided that the failure to do so shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except only to the extent that Vendor shall have been actually prejudiced as a result of such failure. The parties will cooperate in responding to or contesting any Assessment.

Section 5.09Public Announcements. Unless otherwise required by applicable Law or stock exchange requirements (based upon the reasonable advice of counsel), no party to this Agreement shall make any public announcements in respect of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or otherwise communicate with any news media without the prior written consent of the other party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and the parties shall cooperate as to the timing and contents of any such announcement.

Section 5.10Public Company Obligations. The Parties acknowledge that, as subsidiaries of a publicly traded company listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market, the Target Corporations may become subject to reporting or disclosure requirements of Canadian securities regulatory authorities, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and/or the NASDAQ stock exchange in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Parties agree to work collaboratively to perform all such acts and things as may be required and to execute and deliver any and all documents or instruments necessary to comply with such requirements.

Section 5.11Further Assurances. Following the Closing, each of the parties hereto shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, execute and deliver such additional documents, instruments, conveyances and assurances, and take such further actions as may be reasonably required to carry out the provisions hereof and give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 7.02Indemnification by Vendor. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this ARTICLE VII, Vendor shall indemnify and defend each of Purchaser and its Affiliates (including the Target Corporations) and their respective Representatives (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnitees”) against, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against, and shall pay and reimburse each of them for, any and all Losses incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, the Purchaser Indemnitees based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of:

(a)

any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of Vendor set out in this Agreement or in any certificate or instrument delivered by or on behalf of Vendor under this Agreement, as of the date such representation or warranty was made or as if such representation or warranty was made on and as of the Closing Date (except for representations and warranties that expressly relate to a specified date, the inaccuracy in or breach of which will be determined with reference to such specified date); or

(b)

any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by Vendor under this Agreement.

Section 7.03Indemnification by Purchaser.

For purposes of this ARTICLE VII, any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty shall be determined without regard to any materiality, Material Adverse Effect or other similar qualification contained in or otherwise applicable to such representation or warranty.

Section 7.05Indemnification Procedures. The party making a claim under this ARTICLE VII is referred to as the “Indemnified Party”, and the party against whom such claims are asserted under this ARTICLE VII is referred to as the “Indemnifying Party”.

(a)

Third-Party Claims. If any Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any Action made or brought by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement or a Representative of the foregoing (a “Third-Party Claim”) against such Indemnified Party with respect to which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than 30 calendar days after receipt of such notice of such Third-Party Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defences by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail, include copies of all material written evidence thereof and indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party, to assume the defence of any Third-Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defence; provided that, if the Indemnifying Party is Vendor, such Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to defend or direct the defence of any such Third-Party Claim that: (i) is asserted directly by or on behalf of a Person that is a supplier or customer of the Target Corporations; or (ii) seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defence of any Third-Party Claim, subject to Section 7.05(b), it shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counter-claims pertaining to any such Third-Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defence of any Third-Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defence thereof. The fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party; provided that, if in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party, (A) there are legal defences available to an Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party, or (B) there exists a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party that cannot be waived, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party in each jurisdiction for which the Indemnified Party determines counsel is required. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend such Third-Party Claim, fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement or fails to diligently prosecute the defence of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may, subject to Section 7.05(b), pay, compromise, defend such Third-Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third-Party Claim. Vendor and Purchaser shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defence of any Third-Party Claim, including making available (subject to the provisions of Section 5.06) records relating to such Third-Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defence of such Third-Party Claim.

(b)

Settlement of Third-Party Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, except as provided in this Section 7.05(b). If a firm offer is made to settle a Third-Party Claim without leading to liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third-Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party shall give written notice to that effect

to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer within 10 days after its receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest or defend such Third-Party Claim and, in such event, the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party as to such Third-Party Claim shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to assume the defence of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may settle the Third-Party Claim upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle such Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defence under Section 7.05(a), it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(c)

Direct Claims. Any Action by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third-Party Claim (each, a “Direct Claim”) shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than 30 days after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of such Direct Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defences by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have 30 days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. The Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim, and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving such information and assistance (including access to the Target Corporations’ premises and personnel and the right to examine and copy any accounts, documents or records) as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such 30 day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 7.06Payments. Once a Loss is agreed to by the Indemnifying Party or finally adjudicated to be payable under this ARTICLE VII, the Indemnifying Party shall satisfy its obligations within 15 Business Days of such final, non-appealable adjudication by wire transfer of immediately available funds. The parties agree that, if the Indemnifying Party does not make full payment of any such obligations within such 15-Business Day period, any amount payable shall accrue interest from and including the date of agreement of the Indemnifying Party or final, non-appealable adjudication to but excluding the date such payment has been made at a rate per annum equal to 5%. Such interest shall be calculated daily on the basis of a 365 day year and the actual number of days elapsed, without compounding.

Section 7.07Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

Section 7.08Effect of Investigation. The representations, warranties and covenants of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification with respect thereto, shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party (including by any of its Representatives) or by reason of the fact

that the Indemnified Party or any of its Representatives knew or should have known that any such representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate or by reason of the Indemnified Party’s waiver of any condition set forth in Section 6.02 or Section 6.03, as the case may be.

Section 7.09Exclusive Remedies. Subject to Section 5.07 and Section 9.11, the parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than claims arising from fraud, criminal activity or wilful misconduct on the part of a party hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be under the indemnification provisions set forth in this ARTICLE VII. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other parties hereto and their Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Law, except under the indemnification provisions set forth in this ARTICLE VII. Nothing in this Section 7.09 shall limit any Person’s right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Person shall be entitled or to seek any remedy on account of any party’s fraudulent, criminal or wilful misconduct.
