EXECUTION VERSION
AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER
This Agreement and Plan of Merger (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of December
15, 2010, by and among iCAD, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (“Buyer”), XAC, Inc., a
Delaware
corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Buyer (“Merger Sub”), Xoft, Inc., a
Delaware corporation
(the “Company”), and Xxxxxxx Xxxx as the representative of the Company’s stockholders (the
“Stockholder Representative”).
BACKGROUND
The Company is in the business of designing, developing, manufacturing, marketing and selling
Products in the field of electronic brachytherapy (eBx) (the “Business”). The Stockholders own,
collectively, 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company.
Merger Sub is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Buyer. Buyer intends to acquire the Company on the
terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.
At the Closing (as defined herein), the parties desire that the Company be merged with and
into the Merger Sub (with the Merger Sub surviving the merger) on the terms and subject to the
conditions set forth in this Agreement. In the Merger, each issued and outstanding share of
capital stock of the Company will be converted into the right to receive a portion of the Merger
Consideration.
The Boards of Directors of Merger Sub and Company have each approved this Agreement and the
Merger, and all transactions contemplated thereby or herein, in accordance with the General
Corporation Law of the State of
Delaware (the “DGCL”), and determined that the Merger is advisable.
Buyer has adopted this Agreement and approved the Merger and all transactions contemplated thereby
or herein on behalf of Merger Sub, as the sole stockholder of Merger Sub, and in accordance with
the DGCL; and
The Company’s Board of Directors has recommended the Merger and this Agreement for approval by
the Stockholders, and those Stockholders required by the Company’s constituent documents to approve
the Merger, prior to the Closing Date, will have adopted this Agreement and will have approved the
Merger.
INTENDING TO BE LEGALLY BOUND, in consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein and
subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions set forth herein, the parties hereto agree
as follows:
Section 1 Defined Terms
Certain capitalized or defined terms used in this Agreement and not specifically defined in
context shall have their respective meanings contained in Exhibit 1A attached hereto.

Agreement and the applicable provisions of the DGCL, the Company shall be merged with and into the
Merger Sub, the separate corporate existence of the Company shall cease and the Merger Sub shall
continue as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”). The Merger Sub, as the surviving corporation
of the Merger, is hereinafter sometimes referred to as the “Surviving Corporation.”
2.2 Effective Time; Closing.
2.2.1 The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall
take place at 10:00 a.m., New York, New York time on the later of (a) the second day after
satisfaction or waiver of the conditions specified in Sections 7 and 8 hereof or
(b) such later date as Buyer and the Company may agree (the “Closing Date”). It is contemplated
that the Closing shall occur by the exchange of Closing deliveries through the mail and, if
necessary, by electronic mail or facsimile. However, if it is required for all parties to be

DGCL. The Merger shall become effective at such time as the Certificate of Merger is duly filed
with the Secretary of State of the State of
Delaware, or at such subsequent date or time as Buyer
and the Company shall agree and as so specified in the Certificate of Merger (the time at which the
Merger becomes effective being hereinafter referred to as the “Effective Time”).
2.3 Effect of the Merger. At the Effective Time, the effect of the Merger shall be as
provided in this Agreement and the applicable provisions of the DGCL. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, at and after the Effective Time: (i) the Surviving Corporation shall
possess all of the rights, privileges, powers and franchises, and be subject to all the
restrictions, liabilities and duties of each of the Merger Sub and the Company; (ii) all the
rights, privileges, immunities, powers and franchises, of a public as well as of a private nature,
and all property, real, personal and mixed, and all debts due on whatever account, including,
without limitation, all choses in action, and all and every other interest of or belonging to or
due to either the Merger Sub or the Company shall be taken and deemed to be transferred to, and
vested in, the Surviving Corporation without further act or deed; and all property, rights and
privileges, immunities, powers and franchises and all and every other interest shall be thereafter
as effectually the property of the Surviving Corporation as they were of either Merger Sub or the
Company prior to the Effective Time; and (iii) subject to the terms of this Agreement, all debts,
liabilities, duties and obligations of the Company shall become the debts, liabilities, duties and
obligations of the Surviving Corporation, and the Surviving Corporation shall henceforth be
responsible and liable for all the debts, liabilities, duties and obligations of the Company, and

91,930 shares of Buyer Common Stock multiplied by the Closing Price (the “Cash Consideration”);
less (c) the Closing Date Retention Bonus Amount (as defined below); less (d) the

any Indebtedness not paid by the Company prior to Closing, including any amounts outstanding under
the Note and Security Agreement; less (e) the number and amount of Buyer Common Shares and
Cash Consideration that together equals the Transaction Expenses in excess of $1,002,000 (plus an
additional $50,000) in the aggregate; less (f) any portion of the Escrow Amount remitted by
the Escrow Agent to Buyer pursuant to the Escrow Agreement; less (g) Twenty Five Thousand

(x) the dollar value, if any, by which the Final Closing Working Capital is less than the Target

less than $25,000, then the reduction in this subclause (h) will be equal to zero; and plus
(i) any amounts payable to the Stockholders pursuant to Section 2.11; provided,
however, that there shall not be any duplication in any of the foregoing reductions.
2.6.2 At Closing, the Buyer and Merger Sub shall pay the amounts in clauses (a) and (b) in
Section 2.6.1 above, as adjusted by clauses (c) through (g), minus (i) the number

the dollar value, if any, by which the Estimated Closing Date Working Capital is less than the
Target Working Capital Amount divided by (y) the Closing Price, provided, however, that if such
amount is less than $25,000, then the reduction in this subclause (i) will be equal to zero,
and minus (ii) the Escrow Amount (collectively, the “Closing Date Merger
Consideration”). The Closing Date Merger Consideration shall be deposited by Buyer on the Closing
Date with the Exchange Agent in accordance with Section 2.7.1 to comprise the “Exchange
Fund.”
3
2.6.3 For purposes of Sections 2.6.1 and 2.6.2, any reductions or additions
shall occur in a proportionate amount of Cash Consideration and Buyer Common Shares where the

Preferred Stock held by the Stockholders as set forth on the Merger Consideration Calculation
Statement delivered pursuant to Section 2.6.7.
2.6.4 Escrow Amount. The Escrow Amount shall be deposited at the Closing with Continental

(other than the last sentence of each such Section) within thirty (30) days of Closing shall be
referred to herein as the “Closing Date Retention Bonus Amount.”

a portion of the Merger Consideration (including the Earnout Payment) in cash allocable to each
such share of Company Common Stock, as set forth on the Merger Consideration Calculation Statement
delivered pursuant to Section 2.6.7.
2.6.7 Pre-Closing Delivery of Information Necessary for Determination of Merger Consideration
Payments. No later than five (5) Business Days prior to the scheduled Closing Date, the Company
shall deliver to Buyer a true, complete and correct schedule detailing the Company’s calculation of
the Merger Consideration payments specified in Section 2.6.1 (including the aggregate
amount of Merger Consideration allocable to each class of Company Capital Stock, name of each
holder owning stock within a class, and the liquidation amount payable to such holder, and
specifying any holder of Dissenting Shares) (the “Merger Consideration Calculation Statement”).
Such schedules shall be attached as Schedule 2.6.7.
2.6.8 Stock of Merger Sub. Each share of the common stock, $0.01 par value, of Merger Sub
then outstanding shall be converted into one validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable share of
common stock of the Surviving Corporation. Each stock certificate, if any, of Merger Sub
evidencing ownership of any such shares shall, from and after the Effective Time, evidence
ownership of such shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation.

2.7 Exchange Procedures.
2.7.1 The Buyer shall appoint Continental Stock Transfer and Trust Company, or such other
entity that is acceptable to Buyer and the Shareholder Representative, to act as
exchange agent (the “Exchange Agent”) pursuant to an exchange agent agreement mutually
agreeable to the parties (the “Exchange Agent Agreement”). The fees and expenses of the Exchange
Agent (the “Exchange Agent Amount”) shall be paid by the Buyer. The Company and the Stockholder
Representative will cooperate with Buyer to provide such assistance or documents as may be
reasonably required pursuant to the Exchange Agent Agreement. Buyer will deposit, on or before the
Effective Time (i) with the Exchange Agent, cash and certificates representing shares of Buyer
Common Stock sufficient to pay in a timely manner, and Buyer shall instruct the Exchange Agent to
timely pay, the aggregate Closing Date Merger Consideration and (ii) with the Escrow Agent pursuant
to the Escrow Agreement, cash and certificates representing shares of Buyer Common Stock in the
amount of the Escrow Amount. In addition, Buyer shall make available to the Exchange Agent on a
timely basis sufficient cash to permit prompt payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares of Buyer
Common Stock, and Buyer shall instruct the Exchange Agent to timely pay such amounts. All
certificates representing shares of Buyer Common Stock issued pursuant to this Agreement shall bear
a legend substantially as set forth in Schedule 2.7.1.
2.7.2 As soon as reasonably practicable, Buyer shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each
holder of record of a certificate(s) which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented
outstanding shares of Company Capital Stock (“Company Stock Certificates”) whose shares are to be
converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.6.6 and
any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Buyer Common Stock to be issued or paid in consideration
therefor: (i) a letter of transmittal in substantially the form attached to this Agreement as
Exhibit 2.7.2 (the “Transmittal Letter”), pursuant to which such holder expressly
acknowledges and agrees to the terms of those sections of this Agreement where the Stockholders
have expressly undertaken an obligation, including, without limitation, Section 12, and
(ii) instructions for use in either surrendering the Company Stock Certificate(s), or for providing
separate stock powers to the extent that such Company Stock Certificates are already in the
Company’s possession, in exchange for the allocable portion of the Merger Consideration and any
cash in lieu of fractional shares of Buyer Common Stock to be issued or paid in consideration
therefor upon surrender of such certificate in accordance with Sections 2.6.6 and
2.7.7. No interest shall accrue on the Merger Consideration payable upon the surrender of
the Company Stock Certificates for the benefit of, or be paid to, the holders of the Company Stock
Certificates. Buyer and the Company shall reasonably cooperate to facilitate delivery of
Transmittal Letters and related instructions to the Company (which the Company may disseminate to
its stockholders) sufficiently in advance of Closing so as to enable the Company’s stockholders to
deliver completed materials to the Exchange Agent within such a time frame as will permit receipt
by such stockholders of any cash payments due on the Closing Date.
2.7.3 Upon surrender to the Exchange Agent of its Company Stock Certificate(s), accompanied by
a properly completed Transmittal Letter, a holder of Company Capital Stock will be entitled to
receive, promptly after the Effective Time, the Merger Consideration, without interest, in respect
of the shares of Company Capital Stock represented by its Company Stock Certificate. Until so
surrendered, each such Company Stock Certificate shall represent after the Effective Time, for all
purposes, only the right to receive the allocable portion of the Merger Consideration and any cash
in lieu of fractional shares of Buyer Common Stock to be issued or paid in consideration therefor
upon surrender of such certificate in accordance with Sections 2.6.6 and 2.7.7
hereof.
6
2.7.4 All Cash Consideration and Buyer Common Shares issued upon the surrender of shares of
Company Capital Stock in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been issued in
full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Company Capital Stock, and there shall
be no further registration of transfers on the records of the Surviving Corporation of shares of
Company Capital Stock which were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.
2.7.5 At any time following the twelve month anniversary of the Effective Time, the Buyer
shall be entitled to require the Exchange Agent to deliver to the Buyer any remaining portion of
the Exchange Fund that was deposited with the Exchange Agent at the Effective Time, and
Stockholders shall be entitled to look only to the Buyer (subject to abandoned property, escheat or
other similar Laws) with respect to the Merger Consideration and any cash in lieu of fractional
shares of Buyer Common Stock, without any interest thereon. Neither Buyer nor the Exchange Agent
shall be liable to any holder of a Company Stock Certificate for Merger Consideration or cash from
the Exchange Fund in each case delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned
property, escheat or similar Law.
2.7.6 In the event any certificates representing Company Capital Stock shall have been lost,
stolen or destroyed, the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration shall be deliverable
against delivery of an affidavit of that fact, in customary form and containing customary
indemnities, executed by the holder thereof.
2.7.7 No fractional shares of Buyer Common Stock shall be issued in connection with the
Merger, and no certificates or scrip for any such fractional shares shall be issued. Any holder of
Company Capital Stock who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Buyer
Common Stock (after aggregating all fractional shares of Buyer Common Stock issuable to such
holder) shall, in lieu of such fraction of a share and upon surrender of such holder’s
certificate(s) representing such holder’s Company Capital Stock, be paid in cash the dollar amount
(rounded to the nearest whole cent), without interest, determined by multiplying such fraction by
the Closing Price.
2.8 Withholding Taxes. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, the Buyer, the
Surviving Corporation, or the Exchange Agent (upon notification to the Stockholder Representative)
shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable (directly or
indirectly) pursuant to this Agreement to any Stockholder such amounts as the Buyer, the Surviving
Corporation or the Exchange Agent is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of
such payment under the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax law. To the extent
that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate taxing authority by the Buyer, the
Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all
purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to such holder in respect of which such deduction
and withholding was made by the Buyer, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent, as
applicable.
7
2.9 Dissenting Stockholders.
2.9.1 Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any shares of Company
Capital Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time eligible under
the DGCL to exercise appraisal or dissenters’ rights and held by a holder, if any, who has not
voted in favor of the Merger or consented thereto in writing and who has exercised and perfected
appraisal or dissenters’ rights for such shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL and has
not effectively withdrawn or lost such appraisal or dissenters’ rights (collectively, the
“Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into or represent the right to consideration for
Company Capital Stock set forth in Section 2.6.6, and the holder or holders of such shares
shall be entitled only to such rights as may be granted to such holder or holders in Section 262 of
the DGCL.
2.9.2 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.9.1, if any holder of Dissenting
Shares shall effectively withdraw or lose (through failure to perfect or otherwise) such holder’s
appraisal rights and dissenters’ rights under Section 262 of the DGCL, then, as of the later of the
Effective Time and the occurrence of such event, such holder’s shares shall automatically be
converted into and represent only the right to receive the consideration for such shares pursuant
to Section 2.6.6, without interest, less their portion of the Escrow Amount, as set forth
in Schedule 2.6.7, upon surrender of the certificate representing such shares.
2.9.3 The Company shall (i) comply with the requirements of Section 262 of the DGCL, (ii) give
Buyer prompt notice of any written demand received by Company pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL,
and of withdrawals of such demands, and provide copies of any documents or instruments served
pursuant to the DGCL and received by Company and (iii) give Buyer the opportunity to participate in
all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demands. Company shall not make any
payment or settlement offer prior to the Effective Time with respect to any such demand unless
Buyer shall have consented in writing to such payment or settlement offer.
2.9.4 Any amount paid by Buyer or the Surviving Corporation to any Person with respect to
Dissenting Shares pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL in excess of the amount that would otherwise
be payable pursuant to Section 2.6.6 hereof for each such Dissenting Share (such amount,
unless determined in a final, non- appealable judgment of a court, being subject to the written
approval of the Stockholder Representative, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed), and all interest, costs, expenses and fees as incurred by Buyer or the
Surviving Corporation in connection with the exercise of all rights under Section 262 of the DGCL,
shall constitute “Losses” for purposes of this Agreement, and Buyer and the Surviving Corporation,
as the case may be, shall be entitled to recover such Losses as provided in Section 12 of
this Agreement, provided that such Losses shall not be subject to the Threshold.
2.10 Merger Consideration Adjustment.
2.10.1 No later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall
prepare and deliver to Buyer (i) a balance sheet of the Company, prepared in accordance with GAAP,
as of the Closing Date (the “Closing Balance Sheet”), and (ii) an estimate of the Working Capital
(the “Estimated Closing Date Working Capital”) of the Company as of the Closing Date.
8
2.10.2 Within forty-five (45) days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall cause Buyer Accountant
at its sole cost and expense to (i) review and/or conduct certain procedures upon the components of
the Estimated Closing Date Working Capital and prepare detailed statements (the “Working Capital
Statement”) of its calculation of the actual Working Capital of the Company as of the Closing Date
(“Actual Closing Working Capital”), which shall be appropriately adjusted for any audit adjustments
for the year ended December 31, 2010 and (ii) deliver the Working Capital Statement to the
Stockholder Representative on behalf of the Stockholders. The Stockholder Representative shall
have a thirty (30) day period to review the Working Capital Statement following receipt thereof and
during such period Buyer shall cause the Buyer Accountant to share its work papers with the
Stockholder Representative or its professional advisers and to make itself reasonably available to
the Stockholder Representative and its professional advisers. If the Buyer’s Accountant fails to
deliver the Working Capital Statement within the allotted time period, the Stockholder
Representative shall give notice thereof to the Buyer, and the Buyer shall have ten (10) days from
receipt of such notice to deliver the Working Capital Statement to the Stockholder Representative.
If Buyer does not deliver the Working Capital Statement within such ten (10) day period, Buyer
shall be deemed to have agreed to the calculations in the Estimated Closing Date Working Capital.
2.10.3 If the Stockholder Representative disputes the Actual Closing Working Capital stated in
the Working Capital Statement, it shall deliver a notice to Buyer no later than thirty (30) days
after their receipt of the Working Capital Statement (the “Calculation Dispute Notice”). The
Stockholder Representative shall set forth in reasonable detail in the Calculation Dispute Notice
the basis for their disagreement with the calculations of the Actual Closing Working Capital. If
the Stockholder Representative fails to deliver the Calculation Dispute Notice within the allotted
time period, the Stockholder Representative, on behalf of the Stockholders, shall be deemed to have
agreed to the calculations of the Actual Closing Working Capital prepared by Buyer Accountant,
which calculations shall be final, conclusive and binding upon the parties.
2.10.4 If the Stockholder Representative, on behalf of the Stockholders, disputes the Actual
Closing Working Capital as determined by the Buyer Accountant within the allotted time period, the
parties in good faith will attempt to jointly resolve any dispute during the thirty day period
following the delivery of the Calculation Dispute Notice. If Buyer and the Stockholder
Representative can resolve their dispute and agree upon the Actual Closing Working Capital balance
of the Company, they shall memorialize their agreement in writing and such mutually agreed upon
figure(s) shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all of the parties.
2.10.5 If Buyer and the Stockholder Representative cannot resolve the dispute to their mutual
satisfaction, Buyer and the Stockholder Representative shall engage the Independent Accountants to
determine the Actual Closing Working Capital balance of the Company as of the Closing Date. The
costs and expenses of the Independent Accountants shall be borne fifty percent (50%) by Buyer and
fifty percent (50%) by the Stockholder Representative. To the extent that the Independent
Accountants desire the parties to this Agreement to meet in person, the parties shall choose a
mutually acceptable location for such meeting. Each of Buyer and the Stockholder Representative
shall cause their accounting professional advisers to provide the Independent Accountants such of
their respective work papers as may be requested by the Independent Accountants. The Independent
Accountants shall
be requested to complete their engagement within forty-five (45) days of being retained by
Buyer and the Stockholder Representative. The determination of the Independent Accountants shall
be final, conclusive and binding upon the parties.
9
2.10.6 The final determination of the Actual Closing Working Capital of the Company as of the
Closing Date pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be referred to herein as the “Final
Closing Working Capital.” The extent, if any, to which the Final Closing Working Capital is less
than the Estimated Closing Date Working Capital shall be referred to herein as a “Negative Working
Capital Balance.”
2.10.7 The Merger Consideration shall be reduced to the extent of the Negative Working Capital
Balance, with the reduction in a proportionate amount of Cash Consideration and Buyer Common
Shares, where such proportion of Cash Consideration to Buyer Common Shares is equal to the
proportion of the number of shares of Company Common Stock held by the Stockholders to the number
of shares of Company Preferred Stock held by the Stockholders as set forth on the Merger
Consideration Calculation Statement delivered pursuant to Schedule 2.6.7. The number of
Buyer Common Shares will be based on the Closing Price. Any such decrease in the Merger
Consideration shall be reimbursed by the Stockholders, through the Stockholder Representative, to
the Buyer from the Escrow Amount within five (5) Business Days after the determination of the Final
Working Capital.
2.11 Earnout Payment.
2.11.1 Buyer shall, or Buyer shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, pay the Earnout Payment
to the Exchange Agent, on behalf of the Stockholders, in the amounts set forth below:
2.11.2 The Stockholders shall be entitled to (i) $770,000 (the “Base Payment”) if the
aggregate of the Net Revenues earned by Buyer, Surviving Corporation and their Affiliates
(including, without limitation, from sales by licensees and distributors of each of the foregoing),
from end sales of the Xoft Products (as defined below) for the thirty-six (36) month period (the
“Earnout Period”) beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the third anniversary of the Closing
Date (the “Earnout Net Revenues”) is equal to or greater than Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000)
(the “Minimum Threshold”); plus (ii) $0.7396 for each dollar of Earnout Net Revenues above that
Minimum Threshold, up to a maximum Earnout Payment, including the Base Payment, of Forty Million
Dollars ($40,000,000) (the amounts described in (i) and (ii), the “Earnout Payment”). The “Xoft
Products” shall include: (x) all products that, as of the Closing Date, are manufactured,
produced, tested, processed, labeled, stored, sold, marketed distributed or under development by or
on behalf of the Company, as well as (y) any enhancements or modifications to such existing
products and any new products covered by a claim of a patent or patent application within the
Company Intellectual Property or that otherwise use the same intellectual property (other than
trademarks and trade names and off-the-shelf software that is not specific to Xoft Products) as
that used in such existing products, in each case whether or not manufactured post-Closing on
behalf of the Company, the Surviving Corporation, Buyer or its Affiliates or any licensees of the
foregoing.
10
2.11.3 Subject to Section 2.11.9, at the discretion of Buyer consistent with this
Section 2.11.3, the Earnout Payment shall be payable in cash or a combination of cash and
Buyer Common Shares; provided, however, that the Buyer will not issue Buyer Common Shares in
satisfaction of the Earnout Payment without obtaining approval of its stockholders if stockholder
approval to issue such Buyer Common Shares is then required by either (i) NASDAQ (whether or not
the Common Shares are then listed on NASDAQ), or (ii) any securities exchange (other than NASDAQ)
on which the Buyer Common Shares are then traded; and provided further that Buyer Common Shares
will not be issued to any holder of Company Common Stock or Cash Bonus Recipient. If the Buyer
decides to pay any part of the Earnout Payment in Buyer Common Shares, the number of Buyer Common
Shares paid to the Stockholders under Section 2.11.2 shall be equal to the Earnout Payment
divided by the Earnout Price. To the extent that Buyer decides to pay any portion of the Earnout
Payment in cash rather than Buyer Common Shares, the total amount of Merger Consideration paid in
cash shall not exceed an amount equal to sixty percent (60%) of the value of the total Merger
Consideration paid to the Stockholders hereunder (based on the Closing Price and the Earnout
Price).
2.11.4 During the Earnout Period, Buyer shall provide the Stockholder Representative with a
quarterly report, within forty-five (45) days after the end of each calendar quarter setting forth
a reasonably detailed calculation of Net Revenue earned by the Surviving Corporation and Buyer.
Within thirty (30) days following the third anniversary of the Closing Date, Buyer shall (i)
calculate the Earnout Net Revenues and the amount of the Earnout Payment, if any, and prepare
detailed statements (the “Earnout Statements”) of its calculation of the Earnout Net Revenues and
the Earnout Payment and (ii) deliver the Earnout Statements to the Stockholder Representative on
behalf of the Stockholders. The Stockholders shall have a thirty (30) day period to review the
Earnout Statements and during such period Buyer, if requested, shall share its relevant supporting
documentation with the Stockholder Representative or its professional adviser.
2.11.5 If the Stockholder Representative disputes either the Earnout Net Revenues or the
Earnout Payment stated in the Earnout Statements, the Stockholder Representative shall deliver a
notice to Buyer no later than thirty (30) days after delivery of the Earnout Statements (the
“Earnout Dispute Notice”). The Stockholder Representative shall set forth in detail in the Earnout
Dispute Notice the basis for their disagreement with the calculations of the Earnout Net Revenues
or Earnout Payment specified in the Earnout Statements. If the Stockholder Representative fails to
deliver the Earnout Dispute Notice within the allotted time period, the Stockholder Representative,
on behalf of the Stockholders, shall be deemed to have agreed to the calculations of the Earnout
Net Revenues and Earnout Payment specified in the Earnout Statements, which calculations shall be
final, conclusive and binding upon the parties.
2.11.6 If the Stockholder Representative disputes the Earnout Net Revenues or Earnout Payment
as specified in the Earnout Statements within the allotted time period, the parties in good faith
will attempt to jointly resolve any dispute during the thirty day period following the delivery of
the Earnout Dispute Notice. If Buyer and the Stockholder Representative can resolve their dispute
and agree upon the Earnout Net Revenues and Earnout Payment, they shall memorialize their agreement
in writing and such mutually agreed upon figure(s) shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all
of the parties.
11
2.11.7 If Buyer and the Stockholder Representative cannot resolve the dispute to their mutual
satisfaction, Buyer and the Stockholder Representative shall engage the Independent Accountants to
determine the Earnout Net Revenues and Earnout Payment. The costs and expenses of the Independent
Accountants incurred by the Parties pursuant to this Section 2.11.7 shall be borne fifty
percent (50%) by Buyer and fifty percent (50%) by the Stockholder Representative, unless such
Independent Accountant’s review reveals an underreporting of the Earnout Net Revenues of greater
than five percent (5%), in which case Buyer shall bear all costs and expenses of the Independent
Accountant incurred in making such determination. To the extent that the Independent Accountants
desire the parties to this Agreement to meet in person, the parties shall choose a mutually
acceptable location for such meeting. Each of Buyer and the Stockholder Representative shall
provide or cause their accounting professional advisers, to provide, as the case may be, the
Independent Accountants such of their respective work papers or other relevant supporting
documentation as may be requested by the Independent Accountants. The Independent Accountants
shall be requested to complete their engagement within forty-five (45) days of being retained by
Buyer and the Stockholder Representative. The determination of the Independent Accountants shall
be final, conclusive and binding upon the parties.
2.11.8 Following the Closing until the third anniversary of the Closing Date, Buyer shall and
shall cause the Surviving Corporation to (i) operate the Business in the ordinary course of
business consistent with past practice, (ii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell Xoft
Products in order to achieve the maximum Earnout Payment, and (iii) not take any action with the
primary intent of avoiding or reducing the Earnout Payment. Buyer and Surviving Corporation shall
not be deemed to have breached the immediately preceding sentence where the failure to achieve the
maximum Earnout Payment results from the outcome of the Zeiss Matter (as defined herein) and/or any
breach of a representation or warranty of the Company set forth in Section 3 hereof. The
Buyer shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, use their respective commercially
reasonable efforts to maintain adequate financial books and records, in accordance with GAAP, as
applicable, with respect to the Earnout Net Revenues included in the calculation of the Earnout
Payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall not be limited in its ability to change the
corporate structure of Surviving Corporation (including merging Surviving Corporation into Buyer),
or to enter into a transaction of a strategic nature (including one involving a change of control),
in either case so long as adequate books and records are kept with respect to the Earnout Net
Revenues and Earnout Payment consistent with this Section 2.11.8.
2.11.9 In the event of a Change of Control of Buyer, Buyer shall require that any successor to
Buyer’s Business expressly assume the obligations of Buyer under this Section 2.11, and
that the successor agrees to pay the Earnout Payment in the same form of consideration paid to
Buyer or the shareholders of Buyer in the Change of Control transaction, provided that the payment
in such form of consideration is consistent with the treatment of the Merger as a tax free
reorganization in Section 2.11.3. If the successor to Buyer’s Business decides not to pay,
or is unable to pay due to Section 2.11.3, the full amount of the Earnout Payment in cash,
it shall pay the Earnout Payment by using its shares, rather than Buyer Common Shares, and, to the
extent it determines, subject to Section 2.11.3, cash.
12
2.11.10 The rights to the Earnout Payment are personal to each Stockholder and Cash Bonus
Recipient and Stock Bonus Recipient, shall not be represented by any separate certificate or
instrument, and shall not be transferable for any reason other than be operation of law, will or
the laws of descent and distribution. Any attempted transfer of such right by any holder thereof
(other than as permitted by the immediately preceding sentence) shall be null and void.
2.12 Stock Options.
2.12.1 On or prior to the date of this Agreement, the board of directors of the Company (or,
if appropriate, any committee administering the Xoft, Inc. 2000 Stock Option Plan) shall adopt such
resolutions or take such other actions as are required to fully accelerate all outstanding options
and give notice to such the optionholders under such plan of a proposed change of control event so
that such optionholders must exercise any outstanding options within fifteen (15) days of the date
of such notice or such options terminate; provided, however, the Company shall not disclose the
Buyer’s name in such notice unless Buyer has publicly disclosed its execution of this Agreement.
2.12.2 The board of directors of the Company shall adopt resolutions terminating the Xoft,
Inc. 2000 Stock Option Plan, and any other Company Stock Plan, each of which shall be contingent
and effective as of the Effective Time.
2.13 Accountant Fees, Change in Control Payments, Stockholder Expense Account. Buyer shall
pay the following expenses of the Company, when and to whom such expenses are owed: (i) the fees
and expenses of the Company owed to PricewaterhouseCoopers for its review of the Company’s
financial statements in connection with this transaction, which amount shall not exceed One Hundred
and Thirty Thousand Dollars ($130,000), and (ii) the amounts owed by the Company to Xxxxxxx Xxxxx
upon his termination of employment by the Company, the Surviving Corporation or Buyer pursuant to
his Employment and Change of Control Agreements with the Company and to Xxxxxx Xxxxx upon her
termination of employment by the Company, the Surviving Corporation or Buyer pursuant to her Change
of Control Agreement with the Company, which aggregate amount shall not exceed Four Hundred and
Five Thousand Dollars ($405,000), and subject in each case to the execution of a release in the
form attached hereto as Exhibit 2.13. At Closing, Buyer shall pay Twenty Five Thousand
Dollars ($25,000) to an escrow account established by the Stockholder Representative pursuant to
wire instructions provided by the Stockholder Representative to the Buyer at least five Business
Days prior to Closing.
2.14 Indebtedness. At or prior to Closing, the Company shall pay in full any outstanding
Indebtedness of the Company.
2.15 Tax Consequences. The parties intend that the Merger shall constitute a tax free
reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and adopt this Agreement as a “plan
of reorganization” for purposes of Section 368(a) of the Code and such parties shall treat the
Merger consistent with that intent on all applicable Tax Returns.
13
2.16 Further Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is
reasonably determined by Buyer to be necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this
Agreement or to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession of and to all
rights and property of Merger Sub and the Company, the officers and directors of the Surviving
Corporation and Buyer shall be fully authorized (in the name of Merger Sub, in the name of the
Company and otherwise) to take such action.

Section 10 Certain Rights and Obligations of Buyer and the Stockholders after Closing
10.1 Restrictions on Dispositions of Buyer Shares. Each of the Stockholders understands that
the Buyer Common Shares to be issued hereunder have not been registered under either the Securities
Act or the securities laws of any state and, as a result thereof, are subject to substantial
restrictions on transfer and shall bear a legend restricting the transfer of such securities. From
and after the Closing Date, none of the Stockholders shall sell, assign, give, pledge or otherwise
transfer, dispose of or reduce his or its risk relating to any of his or its Buyer Common Shares
until the expiration of the period (the “Lock Up Period”) applicable to such Stockholder set forth
in Schedule 10.1 hereto, and, thereafter, only in compliance with applicable federal and
state securities Laws. Schedule 10.1 will provide for a Lock Up Period, starting on the
Closing Date, of twelve (12) months for Stockholders holding twenty-five percent (25%) of Buyer
Common Shares, of eighteen (18) months for Stockholders holding forty percent (40%) of Buyer Common
Shares, and of twenty-four (24) months for Stockholders holding thirty-five percent (35%) of Buyer
Common Shares, and will identify the Lock Up Period applicable to each Stockholder. Any transfer,
sale, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or other disposition of Buyer Common Shares in violation of
the restriction contemplated in this Section 10.1 shall be null and void.
48
10.2 Members of Buyer’s Board of Directors. For the three (3) year period from the Closing
Date until the third anniversary thereof, the Stockholder Representative shall have the right to
nominate (which nomination will be made in accordance with any applicable procedures set forth in
the Buyer’s by-laws) one member to the Buyer’s board of directors, who will serve as a full voting
member of the board of directors if such nominee is acceptable to the Nominating and Corporate
Governance Committee of the Buyer’s board of directors (or any successor committee) and its board
of directors, subject to any required stockholder approval. Xxxxxxx Xxxxx shall be the initial
nominee of the Stockholder Representative (the “Stockholder Board Representative”) and, subject to
the approval of the Buyer’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and its Board of
Directors, shall serve, by appointment on the Buyer’s board of directors, as the Stockholder Board
Representative from the Closing Date until the next annual meeting of the Buyer’s stockholders. In
connection with each annual stockholder meeting thereafter during the three year period referred to
above, the Stockholder Representative shall again have the right (for purposes of clarity such
right shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, the rights set forth in the preceding sentence)
to nominate (in accordance with any applicable procedures set forth in the Buyer’s by-laws) one
member to the board, who, (a) shall be the initial Stockholder Board Representative, and if not,
then an individual who is acceptable to the holders of a majority of Buyer Common Stock then held
by the Stockholders as evidenced by a written consent of the Stockholders and (b) if reasonably
acceptable to the Corporate Governance Committee of the Buyer’s board of directors (or any
successor committee) and its
board of directors, will be nominated by the Board to serve as a Stockholder Board
Representative, subject to stockholder approval. The Buyer’s Nominating and Corporate Governance
Committee and board of directors, consistent with their fiduciary duties, will make the final
determination in their sole reasonable discretion as to the appointment to Buyer’s board or
recommendation to Buyer’s stockholders of the Stockholder Board Representative. In the event that
Buyer’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee determines to appoint or recommend such
nominee, Buyer’s board of directors will further recommend to the stockholders of Buyer at any
annual or special meeting of such stockholders and in the proxy materials related to such meeting
that Buyer’s stockholders should vote in favor of such nominee. In the event that a Stockholder
Representative nominee to the board is not acceptable to the Buyer’s Nominating and Corporate
Governance Committee (or any successor committee) or its board of directors (in each case, whose
approval shall not be unreasonably withhold), the Stockholder Representative will be permitted to
nominate an alternative nominee (acceptable to holders of a majority of the shares of Buyer Common
Stock then held by the Stockholders, as evidenced by a written consent of the Stockholders) until
the individual nominated is acceptable to such committee and the board and is nominated by the
board for the position as the Stockholder Board Representative. In addition, Xxxx Xxxxxxxxxxx
shall serve, subject to the approval of the Buyer’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee
(or any successor committee) and its board of directors, as a member of the Buyer’s board of
directors from the Closing Date until the next annual meeting of the Buyer’s stockholders. Any
proposed Stockholder Board Representative and Xxxx Xxxxxxxxxxx shall be required to provide the
Buyer with any information reasonably necessary for the Buyer’s Nominating and Corporate Governance
Committee (or any successor committee) and its board of directors to consider the qualifications of
such proposed directors.
49
10.3 Registration Rights. At any time after two years following the Closing, the Stockholder
Representative shall have the right, subject to the following conditions, to request one
registration for the Buyer Common Stock that was paid to the Stockholders as Merger Consideration
on the Closing Date and, at any time after three years following the Closing, an additional
registration for the Buyer Common Stock that was paid to the Stockholders in satisfaction of the
Earnout Payments and, in each case, that is then currently held by such Stockholders (collectively,
the “Registrable Securities”). Upon the written request by the Stockholder Representative to the
Buyer (the “Resale Request”), Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) register the
resale of the Registrable Securities, subject to the terms of this Section 10.3 and
pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 or any successor form or other applicable form if
Form S-3 is not then available (the “Form S-3 Registration Statement”) and (ii) maintain the
effectiveness of the Form S-3 Registration Statement until the one (1) year anniversary following
the Effective Time of the Form S-3 Registration Statement. Buyer shall (i) file the Form S-3
Registration Statement with the SEC within thirty (30) days after the receiving the Resale Request
covering the resale of the Registrable Securities and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to
cause the Form S-3 Registration Statement to be declared effective as promptly as reasonably
practicable thereafter, provided, however, that any such Registrable Securities
shall cease to be Registrable Securities (and the Buyer shall not be required to maintain the
effectiveness of the Form S-3 Registration Statement, if it has been previously filed and declared
effective, or include any Registrable Securities in the Form S-3 Registration Statement) if (a)
such Registrable Securities have been disposed of by the holder(s) of such securities in accordance
with an effective registration statement, (b) such Registrable
Securities have been previously sold in accordance with Rule 144 of the Securities Act or any
other rule of similar effect (“Rule 144”), (c) such securities become eligible for resale under
Rule 144 without volume restriction or volume limitation and when either (i) the Buyer is
compliant with any applicable current public information requirements pursuant to Rule 144 or (ii)
the current information requirements of Rule 144 no longer apply, as reasonably determined by the
Buyer or (d) such Registrable Securities cease to be outstanding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
Buyer shall furnish to the Stockholder Representatives a certificate signed by the Chairman of the
Board, the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer or the General Counsel of Buyer
stating that a material corporate development has occurred or a material corporate transaction is
under consideration and, in the reasonable good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of Buyer,
after consulting with its counsel, disclosure of such development or transaction in an amendment or
supplement to the registration statement (or the related prospectus) would be seriously detrimental
to Buyer (or would deprive Buyer of the opportunity to pursue a significant favorable transaction),
then Buyer shall have the right to suspend the effectiveness of such registration statement and to
prohibit each former stockholder of the Company from effecting any sale of Registrable Securities
pursuant to such registration statement (and the related prospectus) for one or more periods, which
shall not exceed ninety (90) days in any single instance or one hundred eighty (180) days in the
aggregate. The Buyer shall not be required to conduct any special audit (or any audit not in the
ordinary course of its business) in connection with any registration hereunder. In connection with
any Form S-3 Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Section 10.3 the holders of the
Registrable Securities shall be solely responsible for the fees of any counsel retained by the
holders or their Stockholder Representative in connection with such registration and any transfer
taxes or underwriting discounts, commissions or fees applicable to the Registrable Securities sold
by the holders pursuant thereto. The Buyers obligations to include any Registrable Securities in
any Form S-3 Registration Statement filed hereunder are subject to the holder of the Registrable
Securities providing to the Buyer such information as the Buyer shall reasonably request for
inclusion in the Form S-3 Registration Statement.
50
10.4 Director and Officer Insurance. The Surviving Corporation shall maintain, and Buyer
shall cause the Surviving Corporation to maintain, at no expense to the Seller Indemnified Parties,
in effect for six (6) years after the Closing Date insurance “tail” or other insurance policies
with respect to liability insurance for the Company directors and officers with respect to acts or
omissions existing or occurring at or prior to the Closing Date in an amount and scope at least as
favorable as the coverage applicable to the Company directors and officers as of the Closing Date
under its directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy; provided, however,
that if such “tail” or other policies are not available at an annual cost not greater than 125% of
the last annual premium paid prior to the date hereof under such policy (the “Insurance Cap”), then
the Surviving Corporation shall notify the Stockholder Representative and cause to be obtained as
much comparable insurance as can reasonably be obtained in its good faith judgment at a cost up to
but not exceeding the Insurance Cap.
10.5 Employee Benefits. Buyer will use its commercially reasonable efforts to offer on the
Closing Date to Company Employees as of the Closing Date group health, group dental, short-term
disability, long-term disability and group term life insurance coverage under Buyer or applicable
subsidiary plan(s) (“Buyer Plans”), subject to the terms of the applicable plan and insurance
contracts and to Buyer’s (or applicable subsidiary’s) right to amend or terminate any or
all such Buyer Plans in its discretion. Buyer will offer to Company Employees as of the
Closing Date participation in the ICAD, Inc. 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan (“401(k) Plan”) no later
than February 1, 2011, subject to the terms of the 401(k) Plan and to Buyer’s right to amend or
terminate the 401(k) Plan in its discretion.
Section 11 Certain Obligations of the Stockholders, Buyer and/or Merger Sub After Closing
11.1 Taxes.
11.1.1 Tax Periods Through the Closing Date. Except as provided in Section 11.2,
Buyer shall prepare or cause to be prepared all Tax Returns required by applicable Law with respect
to the Company or the Surviving Corporation which are filed after the Closing Date. To the extent
such Tax Returns relate to a taxable period or portion thereof ending on or before the Closing
Date, Buyer shall provide such Tax Return to the Stockholder Representative for its review and
comment at least thirty (30) days prior to the filing of such Tax Return, and shall revise such Tax
Return to reflect any of the Stockholder Representative’s reasonable comments. All such Tax
Returns shall be filed consistent with past practices. The Company (or Surviving Corporation, if
applicable) shall timely pay all Taxes due after the Closing.
11.2 Transfer Taxes. The Stockholders agree to pay all Transfer Taxes imposed by Law on
Stockholders solely by reason of the Closing of the Merger. Buyer and Surviving Corporation agree
to pay all Transfer Taxes imposed by Law on Buyer, Merger Sub or Surviving Corporation solely by
reason of the Closing of the Merger. Tax Returns in respect of Transfer Taxes shall be prepared
and filed by the party responsible thereof under applicable Law provided that such party shall
provide a draft of each such Return to the other parties within a reasonable amount of time prior
to the due date thereof and shall make any changes to such draft return as may be reasonably
requested by the other parties.
51
11.3 Reportable Transactions. The Company agrees to retain all documents and other records
for the appropriate period of time as set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4(g) which
relate to any Reportable Transaction in which the Company has participated.
11.4 Audits. The Stockholders shall have sole control over all audits and other proceedings
(at their own expense) that relate to Taxes of the Company or the Stockholders for any period that
ends on or before the Closing Date for which the stockholders are liable pursuant to this
Agreement; provided, that (i) the Stockholders shall consult with Buyer regarding any such audit
and Buyer shall have the right to review any adjustments related to the same before they are made,
(ii) Buyer and counsel of its own choosing shall have the right to participate in, but not direct,
the prosecution or defense of such proceedings at Buyer’s sole expense, and (iii) with respect to
any proceeding that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the Company or Buyer, the
Stockholders shall consult with Buyer prior to the settlement of any such proceedings and shall
obtain the prior written consent of Buyer prior to the settlement of any such proceedings, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Buyer shall have sole control over all audits and
other proceedings that relate to Taxes of the Surviving Corporation or Buyer for any period that
begins after the Closing Date; provided, that with respect to any audit or other proceeding that
would reasonably be expected to adversely affect Stockholders in any
taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date (i) Buyer shall consult with Stockholders
regarding any such audit and the Stockholders shall have the right to review any adjustments
related to the same before they are made, (ii) Stockholders and counsel of their own choosing shall
have the right to participate in, but not direct, the prosecution or defense of such proceedings at
Stockholders’ sole expense, and (iii) Buyer shall consult with Stockholders prior to the settlement
of any such proceedings, and shall obtain the prior written consent of the Stockholders prior to
the settlement of any such proceedings, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The
Stockholders and Buyer shall cooperate as to any audits or other proceedings that relate to Taxes
of the Company and Surviving Corporation (or Buyer, if applicable) for any period that straddles
the Closing Date. Buyer and each of the Stockholders shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent
reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to
this Section 11 and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such
cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of
records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or other
proceeding.
11.5 Tax-Free Reorganization.
11.5.1 Buyer and the Company shall each use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the
Transactions to be treated as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.
11.5.2 The Company, Buyer, and Merger Sub shall each report the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code in all federal,

Company or to use a significant portion of the Company’s historic business assets in a business

Section 12 Indemnification
12.1 Indemnification by the Company and the Stockholders. Subject to the conditions and
limitations expressed in this Section 12, the Stockholders, severally but not jointly, and
the Company (but the Company’s indemnification obligations under this Section 12 shall
expire on the Closing) shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer and Merger Sub and the
Surviving Corporation, and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents,
representatives and their successors and assigns (each a “Buyer Indemnified Party” or,
collectively, “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all actions, suits, claims,
demands, debts, liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, costs and expenses, including reasonable
attorney’s fees and court costs, except for attorney’s fees and court costs related to the Zeiss
Matter described in Schedule 12.1.4 (“Loss”, or “Losses”), sustained or incurred by a Buyer
Indemnified Party, arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, any of the following:
12.1.1 Any misrepresentation, breach or failure of any warranty or representation made by the
Company in or pursuant to this Agreement.
12.1.2 Any failure or refusal by the Company to satisfy or perform any covenant, term or
condition of this Agreement or any agreement to be executed and delivered pursuant to this
Agreement that is required to be satisfied or performed by the Company.
12.1.3 Any deficiency, adjustment or assessment for Taxes made against or imposed upon the
Company (or any of its predecessors or successors) with respect to any period ending on or before
the Closing Date that is not accrued on the Closing Balance Sheet, other than Taxes attributable to
the Merger, which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include any Taxes arising from the Merger,
including the failure of the Merger to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section
368(a) of the Code, other than such Taxes arising as a result of actions taken by any Stockholder
not expressly contemplated by this Agreement. The right of the Buyer Indemnified Parties to
indemnification under this Section 12.1.3 shall not be affected by the fact that such
deficiency, adjustment or assessment is made against or imposed upon the Buyer Indemnified Parties
as a result of the fact that, after the Closing Date, the Surviving Corporation shall be included
in the consolidated federal income tax returns filed by the Buyer.
12.1.4 The Zeiss Matter, as and to the extent set forth on Schedule 12.1.4 hereto.
12.1.5 Any claims by any Stockholder, holder of Company Options or of Dissenting Shares or
claims by any other Person, (A) claiming that any amount is owed to such Person other than that
portion of the Merger Consideration allocated to such Person pursuant to the Merger Consideration
Calculation Statement, or (B) claiming that such Person has an equity interest in Surviving
Corporation or Buyer (whether through ownership of capital stock, options, warrants convertible
securities or otherwise).
53
12.2 Indemnification by Buyer. Subject to the conditions and limitations expressed in this
Section 12, Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Stockholders and the
Company (but the indemnification obligation benefiting the Company under this Section 12
shall expire upon the occurrence of the Closing) and their respective officers, managers,
employees, agents, representatives and successors and assigns (each a “Seller Indemnified Party”
or, collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all Losses, arising
out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, any or all of the following:
12.2.1 Any misrepresentation, breach or failure of any warranty or representation made by
Buyer or Merger Sub in or pursuant to this Agreement.
12.2.2 Any failure or refusal by Buyer or Merger Sub to satisfy or perform any covenant, term
or condition of this Agreement or any agreement to be executed and delivered pursuant to this
Agreement that is required to be satisfied or performed by any or all of them.
12.3 Indemnification Procedures.
With respect to each event, occurrence or matter (an “Indemnification Matter”) as to which any
member of the Buyer Indemnified Parties or the Seller Indemnified Parties, as the case may be (the
“Indemnitee”) is entitled to indemnification from Buyer or the Stockholders, as the case may be
(the “Indemnitor”) under Section 12.1 and 12.2:
12.3.1 Within ten (10) days after the Indemnitee receives written documents underlying the
Indemnification Matter or, if the Indemnification Matter does not involve a third party action,
suit, claim or demand, promptly after the Indemnitee first has actual knowledge of the
Indemnification Matter, the Indemnitee shall give notice to the Indemnitor (“Indemnification
Notice”) of the nature of the Indemnification Matter and the amount demanded or claimed in
connection therewith, together with copies of any such written documents; provided, however, that
failure to timely provide such notice shall not be a defense to the underlying indemnity claim
except to the extent that delay in providing such notice has damaged the Indemnitor. Within thirty
(30) days of delivery of the Indemnification Notice, the Indemnitor shall deliver to the Indemnitee
a written response, in which the Indemnitor shall either: (i) agree that Indemnitee is entitled to
receive all of the amounts demanded or claimed (in which case, the written response shall be
accompanied by an acknowledgement executed by the Indemnitor authorizing delivery to Indemnitee,
such amounts demanded or claimed), (ii) agree that the Indemnitee is entitled to receive a portion
of the amount claimed (in which case the written response shall be accompanied by an
acknowledgement executed by the Indemnitor authorizing delivery to the Indemnitee, such portion of
the amount demanded or claimed, or (iii) dispute that the Indemnitee is entitled to receive any of
the amounts demanded or claimed.
54
12.3.2 If a third party action, suit, claim or demand (a “Third Party Claim”) is involved,
then, upon receipt of the Indemnification Notice, the Indemnitor shall, at its expense and through
counsel of its choice, promptly assume and have sole control over the litigation, defense or
settlement (the “Defense”) of the Indemnification Matter, except that (i) the Indemnitee may, at
its option and expense and through counsel of its choice, participate in (but not control) the
Defense; (ii) if the Indemnitee reasonably believes that the handling of the Defense by the
Indemnitor may have a material adverse effect on the Indemnitee, its business or financial
condition, or its relationship with any customer, prospect, supplier, employee, salesman,
consultant, agent or representative, then the Indemnitee may, at its option and expense and through
counsel of its choice, assume control of the Defense, provided that the Indemnitor shall be
entitled to participate in the Defense at its expense and through counsel of its choice; (iii) the
Indemnitor shall not consent to any Judgment, or agree to any settlement, without the Indemnitee’s
prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) unless the result of such
settlement is the complete and final release of Indemnitee with respect to the matter in dispute;
and (iv) if the Indemnitor does not promptly assume control over the Defense or, after doing so,
does not continue to prosecute the Defense in good faith, the Indemnitee may, at its option and
through counsel of its choice, but at the Indemnitor’s expense, assume control over the Defense.
In any event, the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee shall fully cooperate with each other in connection
with the Defense, including by furnishing all available documentary or other evidence as is
reasonably requested by the other.
12.3.3 All amounts owed by the Indemnitor to the Indemnitee (if any) shall be paid in full
within ten (10) Business Days after a final Judgment (without further right of appeal) determining
the amount owed is rendered, or after a final settlement or agreement as to the amount owed is
executed (the “Indemnification Amount”). If the Indemnification Amount owed by the Indemnitor to
the Indemnitee is not paid when due, interest shall accrue on such amount at the rate of ten
percent (10%) per annum compounded until paid in full.
12.4 Limits on the Company and Stockholder Liability. The liability of the Company and the
Stockholders under this Section 12 shall be limited as follows:
12.4.1 Except with respect to Carve-Outs (as defined below), and any Indemnification Matters
arising under Sections 12.1.2 through 12.1.5, and except pursuant to Section
2.9.4 hereof, the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to be indemnified for Losses
under this Section 12 unless the aggregate of such Losses arising hereunder for which
indemnification liability would, but for this proviso, exist equals or exceeds Two Hundred
Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($225,000) (the “Threshold”); provided, however, that at such time as
the aggregate of such Losses equals or exceeds the Threshold, the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall
be entitled to be indemnified against the full amount of such Losses that have been incurred or
suffered by such parties (and not merely the portion in excess of the Threshold). For purposes of
this Agreement, a “Carve-Out” shall mean an Indemnification Matter involving (a) intentional
misrepresentation or fraud, (b) Taxes, and (c) the representations contained in Section
3.1.1 (Organization and Corporate Power), Section 3.2 (Authorization), and Section
3.3.1 (Capital Stock).
12.4.2 In the absence of fraud, except with respect to the Carve-Outs and any Indemnification
Matters arising under Sections 12.1.2, 12.1.3, and 12.1.5 and except
pursuant to Section 2.9.4 hereof, recourse to the Escrow Amount and the Earnout Escrow
Amount shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of Buyer Indemnified Parties for any Losses incurred
by any Buyer Indemnified Party arising out of, relating to, or in connection with this Agreement,
including but not limited to, liability for Losses in connection with Section 12.1.1 and
12.1.4 and (b) the maximum liability of any Stockholder in any event will not exceed the
Merger Consideration actually received by such Stockholder (collectively, the “Indemnification
Cap”). Except for fraud, with respect to any Loss resulting from a claim for indemnification
pursuant to Section 12.1, the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall seek to recover first from the Escrow
Amount and Earnout Amount, if any, before seeking to recover directly from the Stockholders.
55
12.4.3 Representations and warranties made by the Company in Section 3, and by the
Buyer and Merger Sub in Section 4, shall survive the consummation of the Merger and
continue as follows:
(a) the representations and warranties in Section 3.1.1 (Organization and Corporate
Power), Section 3.2 (Authorization), Section 3.3.1 (Capital Stock), Section
3.26 (Brokerage), Sections 3.11 (second sentence) (Title to Properties), Section
3.19 (Tax Matters) and Section 3.16 (Employee Benefit Plans) shall survive until the
relevant statute of limitations has expired, and
(b) all other representations and warranties shall terminate on the date which is fifteen (15)
months after the date hereof.
No claim for indemnification hereunder for breach of any such representations and warranties
may be made after the expiration of such survival period; provided, however that any representation
and warranty in respect of which indemnity may be sought under Section 12.1 or under
Section 12.2 and the indemnity with respect thereto shall survive the time at which it
would otherwise terminate pursuant to this Section 12.4.3 if written notice of a claim of
breach
thereof giving rise to such right of indemnity shall have been given to the Person against
whom such indemnity may be sought prior to such time. Notwithstanding any provision to the
contrary in this Agreement, (i) any covenant or agreement that is to be performed after the Closing
Date shall survive the Closing in accordance with its terms, and (ii) any claim for fraud shall
survive until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitation.
12.4.4 Notwithstanding anything herein, the limitations set forth in this Section
12.4.4 as applicable to the Company and Stockholders shall not be applicable in the case of
fraud on the part of the Company or any of the Stockholders, and, as applicable to Buyer, shall not
be applicable in the case of fraud on the part of Buyer.
12.4.5 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Buyer Indemnified Party
shall be entitled to make any claim for recovery for any Loss related to or arising from (A) the
value or condition of any Tax attribute (e.g., net operating loss carry forward or tax credit carry
forward) of the Company, or (B) the ability of Buyer or the Surviving Corporation to utilize such
Tax attribute following the Effective Time.
12.5 Limits on Buyer Liability. The liability of Buyer and its Affiliates for any Losses that
the Stockholders or the Stockholder Representative may incur, suffer, sustain or become subject to
in connection with this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby shall not exceed
(i) the sum of (w) the Closing Date Merger Consideration, (y) the Escrow Amount and (z) the
Earnout Payment, less (b) any amounts previously paid to the Stockholders pursuant to Section
2 hereof.
56
12.6 Form of Indemnification.
12.6.1 Except in the case of fraud and subject to Buyer’s right to satisfy Indemnification
Matters from the Escrow Amount pursuant to Section 12.6 below, following Closing, Buyer’s
rights to indemnification pursuant to Section 12.1 shall be satisfied by the delivery by
the Stockholders of their pro rata share of the Losses (determined based upon their relative
Indemnification Caps) (the “Pro Rata Share”) to the Buyer, at the election of the Stockholder
Representative, of: (i) cash equal to the dollar value of the Loss(es) or (ii) that number of Buyer
Common Shares equal to (x) the dollar value of the Loss(es) for which such Buyer Indemnified Party
is entitled to indemnification under this Section 12, divided by (y) the Indemnification
Price.
12.6.2 The prohibition on transfer of the Buyer Common Shares as contained in Section
10.1 is incorporated herein by reference and shall be deemed extended hereunder if any
Indemnification Matter for which a Buyer Indemnified Party is the Indemnitee is pending at the end
of the applicable Lock Up Period until a final determination of such pending Indemnification
Matter, and if applicable, satisfaction thereof; provided, however, that the extension of the
prohibition on transfer shall only apply to that number of Buyer Common Shares which the Indemnitor
may become liable to deliver as a result of such Indemnification Matter. Any transfer, sale,
assignment, pledge, encumbrance or other disposition of Buyer Common Shares in violation of the
restriction contemplated in this Section 12.6.2 shall be null and void.
12.6.3 If it is necessary for the Stockholders to deliver Buyer Common Shares to Buyer
pursuant to Section 12.6.1, each Stockholder shall, within ten (10) days of receiving the
applicable Indemnification Notice, return to Buyer any certificate(s) representing such Buyer
Common Shares for cancellation and Buyer, in exchange, will issue or cause to be issued to each
Stockholder a new certificate reflecting the appropriate number of Buyer Common Shares held by each
such Stockholder after the reduction contemplated in Section 12.6.1 herein. If a
Stockholder does not deliver to Buyer its certificate(s) as contemplated in the preceding sentence,
(i) such certificate(s) shall immediately be deemed cancelled and Buyer shall xxxx its records to
indicate that such certificate(s) have been cancelled and (ii) Buyer shall issue a new certificate
to such Stockholder in accordance with the previous sentence. Each Stockholder hereby gives the
Secretary of Buyer an irrevocable power of attorney to make such cancellations on Buyer’s books on
behalf of each such Stockholder in accordance with the foregoing.
12.7 Release of Indemnity Escrow Amount and Earnout Escrow Amount. Subject to the limitations
set forth in Section 12.4, the Escrow Amount or any portion thereof shall be released to
satisfy Losses of the Buyer Indemnified Parties under this Section 12, or to the Exchange
Agent as provided in the Escrow Agreement (the “Escrow Release Amount”). The Escrow Release Amount

performance, injunctive or other equitable relief for any breach of any obligation required to be
performed hereunder and for fraud.

certain estimates, plans and budget information. Buyer and Merger Sub acknowledge and agree that
(i) there are uncertainties inherent in attempting to make such projections, forecasts, estimates,

and Merger Sub are taking full responsibility for making their own evaluations of the adequacy and
accuracy of all estimates, projections, forecasts, plans and budgets so furnished to them or their
representatives.

representations or warranties whatsoever regarding the subject matter of this Agreement, express or
implied, except as provided in Section 3 hereto (and any certificate delivered by the

warranties whatsoever regarding the subject matter of this Agreement, express or implied, except

court of competent jurisdiction shall have issued an order, decree or ruling permanently
restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement,

13.1.4 by the Company if Buyer and/or Merger Sub (x) breach their material representations and
warranties in any material respect, or (y) fail to comply in any material respect with any of their
material covenants or agreements contained herein, in each case of (x)
and (y) which breach or failure to comply cannot be cured or, if it can be cured, still exists
ten (10) days following Company’s notification thereof; or
13.1.5 by Buyer and Merger Sub if the Company (x) breaches material representations and
warranties in any material respect, or (y) fails to comply in any material respect with any of its

to the Company for up to One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) with a maturity date of one hundred
twenty (120) days from the acceptance of the line of credit by the Company, all pursuant to the
terms and conditions set forth in a Note and Security Agreement to be entered into by the Company
and Buyer. The Company shall have ten (10) Business Days following the Loan Notice Date to accept
or reject the line of credit. For the Company to accept the line of credit, the Company must
timely (a) execute the Note and Security Agreement in the form of Exhibit 13.2.1, (b)

Authorizations in the forms attached as Exhibit 13.2.3, and (c) cause the existing secured
note holders (or the collateral agent on their behalf) to execute the Subordination Agreements in

deliver the foregoing shall be deemed a rejection of the credit facility by the Company, and Buyer
will have no further obligation to make the credit facility available.
59

Agreement shall be terminated pursuant to Section 13.1 hereof, all obligations of the

14.4 Reliance; Interpretation of Representations. Notwithstanding any right of Buyer to fully
investigate the affairs of the Company (and vice versa) and notwithstanding any knowledge of facts
determined or determinable by Buyer pursuant to such investigation or right of investigation (and
vice versa), Buyer and Merger Sub, on the one hand, and the Company and the Stockholders, on the
other hand, have the right to rely fully upon the representations, warranties, covenants and
agreements contained in this Agreement. The representations and warranties are bargained for
assurances. Each warranty, representation and covenant contained in this Agreement is independent
of all other warranties, representations and covenants contained herein (whether or not covering
identical or related subject matter) and must be independently and separately complied with and
satisfied.
14.5 Entire Understanding. This Agreement, together with the Exhibits and Schedules hereto
(including the Ancillary Agreements and the Confidentiality Agreement), state the entire
understanding among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersede all prior
oral and written communications and agreements, and all contemporaneous oral communications and
agreements, with respect to the subject matter hereof, including all letters of intent (including
but not limited to those certain Letters of Intent dated November 9, 2010 and November 12, 2010)
previously entered into among some or all of the parties hereto. No amendment or modification of
this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the party against whom
enforcement is sought.

by and against the Company, Buyer, and Merger Sub and their respective successors and assigns, and
the Stockholders and their respective heirs, estates and personal representatives. No party shall
in any manner assign any of its or his rights or obligations under this Agreement without the
express prior written consent of the other parties.
14.7 Waivers. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no waiver with respect to this
Agreement shall be enforceable unless in writing and signed by the party against whom enforcement
is sought. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no failure to exercise, delay in
exercising, or single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy by any party, and no course
of dealing between or among any of the parties, shall constitute a waiver of, or shall preclude any
other or further exercise of, any right, power or remedy.
14.8 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is construed to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable, then the remaining provisions hereof shall not be affected thereby and shall be
enforceable without regard thereto.
14.9 Counterparts; Facsimile and Electronic Delivery. This Agreement may be executed in any
number of counterparts, any one of which need not contain the signature of more than one party, but
all such counterparts taken together shall constitute the same instrument. This Agreement and any
signed agreement entered into in connection herewith or contemplated hereby, and any amendments
hereto or thereto, to the extent signed and delivered by means of a facsimile machine or by e-mail
(provided such documents are in PDF (portable document format)), shall be treated in all manner and
respects as an original contract and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effects as
if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. At the request of any party
hereto or to any such contract, each other party hereto or thereto shall re-execute original forms
thereof and deliver them to all other parties. No party hereto or to any such contract shall raise
the use of a facsimile machine or computer in the manner described in this Section 14.9 to
deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or contract was transmitted or communicated
through the use of facsimile machine or computer in the manner described in this Section
14.9 as a defense to the formation of a contract and each such party forever waives any such
defense.
62
14.10 Section Headings. Section and subsection headings in this Agreement are for convenience
of reference only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement, and shall not affect its

ACTION OR PROCEEDING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF THE
TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, REGARDLESS OF WHICH PARTY INITIATES SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING.
14.14 Consent to Jurisdiction. Except for any dispute arising out of, relating to, or in
connection with Sections 2.9 and 2.11, which shall be resolved exclusively set
forth in the manner set forth in such sections, in any action or proceeding between any of the
parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement, any of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement or any dispute arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement, each of
the parties hereto: (i) irrevocably and unconditionally consents and submits, for itself and its

(or, in the case of a claim as to which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction, the Federal
Court of the United States of America, sitting in Delaware); (ii) agrees that all claims in respect
of such action or proceeding must be commenced, and may be heard and determined, exclusively in the
Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if applicable, such Federal Court); (iii) waives,
to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or
hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such action or proceeding in the Court of Chancery of
the State of Delaware (and, if applicable, such Federal Court); and (iv) waives, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or
proceeding in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if applicable, such Federal

Section 2.6 and 2.11 and (iii) the directors and officers of the Company on the

this Agreement.
14.17.2 By virtue of the approval of the Merger and adoption of this Agreement by the

shall have the full power, authority and right to perform, do and take any and all actions he deems
necessary or advisable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby all without liability to such Stockholder, so long as same are carried out by
the Stockholder Representative in good faith. Such actions include the power to amend, modify or
waive any agreement in the name of each Stockholder as if such Stockholder had himself amended,
modified or waived such agreement; provided that the Stockholder Representative shall have no power
(the “Limitations”) to alter any term of this Agreement which would (a) increase the scope of his
powers, (b) reduce the amount or change the type of Merger Consideration to be received by any
Stockholder unless a majority of the Stockholders shall so agree or (c) change the terms of a
provision that provides rights to a specific Stockholder for purposes of compliance with the
Investment Company Act of 1940. In particular, but not by way of limitation, the Stockholder
Representative shall have the power to make and carry out decisions under this Agreement or in
furtherance of the Transactions on behalf of each Stockholder and to sign documents and make
filings on behalf of each Stockholder as if such Stockholder had himself or itself signed or filed
such document.
64
14.17.3 The Stockholders shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify the Stockholder
Representative and hold the Stockholder Representative harmless against any loss, liability or
expense incurred on the part of the Stockholder Representative (so long as the Stockholder’s
Representative was acting in good faith in connection therewith) and arising out of or in
connection with the acceptance or administration of the Stockholder Representative duties
hereunder, including the reasonable fees and expenses of any legal counsel retained by the
Stockholder Representative (the “Stockholder Representative Expenses”). The Stockholder
Representative shall be able to recover any Stockholder Representative Expenses first from the
Representative Reimbursement Amount and then from the Escrow Release Amount and any Earnout Payment
that is made to the Stockholders, by setting off such Stockholder Representative Expenses against
any of such amounts that are required to be paid to the Stockholders pursuant to the Escrow

Stockholders.
14.17.4 The Stockholder Representative may resign at any time. Upon such resignation, each
Stockholder hereby authorizes the Stockholder Representative to appoint a new Stockholder
Representative to replace such resigning Stockholder Representative with the same powers and duties
