(iii) As soon as practicable after the Effective Time but in no event later than five Business Days thereafter, the Purchaser will cause the Escrow and Exchange Agent to mail, to each Shareholder at the respective addresses set forth on the Final Merger Consideration Allocation Schedule the following: (A) notice that the Closing has occurred; (B) a letter of transmittal in the form attached to the Exchange Agent Agreement (the “Transmittal Letter”); and (C) instructions for effecting the surrender of the Certificates (as defined herein) in exchange for the Closing Payment payable with respect thereto.

(iv) Upon surrender of a certificate or certificates after the Effective Time which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented any Outstanding Company Shares (a “Certificate”) (or an effective affidavit of loss required by Section 2.3(b)), together with a duly executed Transmittal Letter (collectively, the “Transmittal Documentation”), to the Escrow and Exchange Agent, the holder of such Certificate will be entitled to receive in exchange for that portion of the Closing Payment that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of this Article 2, all as set forth in the Final Merger Consideration Allocation Schedule, subject to any required Tax withholding, and the surrendered Certificate will immediately be cancelled.

(v) Within five Business Days of receipt by the Escrow and Exchange Agent of the duly executed Transmittal Documentation, the Escrow and Exchange Agent will pay the tendering holder the portion of the Closing Payment or other payments payable to such Person in accordance with the provisions of this Article 2, as set forth in Section 6 of the Exchange Agent Agreement.

2.5 Dissenter’s Rights. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any Company Capital Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a holder who has properly exercised the holder’s dissenters rights in accordance with the Laws of the British Virgin Islands (“Dissenting Shares”) will not be converted into, or represent the right to receive, the Merger Consideration, but shall instead be entitled to receive the fair value of the holder’s shares in accordance with the Laws of the British Virgin Islands.

2.6 Pre-Closing Adjustment to Merger Consideration.

(a) Estimated Closing Balance Sheet. No later than three Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company will prepare and deliver to the Purchaser an unaudited consolidated balance sheet (the “Estimated Closing Balance Sheet”) as of a date within three Business Days prior to the Closing Date. The Estimated Closing Balance Sheet will be prepared in accordance with PRC GAAP or Hong Kong GAAP, as appropriate, applied on a basis that is consistent with the Interim Balance Sheet, but in all instances in accordance with PRC GAAP or Hong Kong GAAP, as appropriate, and will be accompanied by (i) an income statement for the period from the date of the Balance Sheet through the Closing Date and all relevant backup materials and schedules in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser, (ii) a certificate based on such Estimated Closing Balance Sheet setting forth the Company’s itemized calculation of (A) the Closing Working Capital and (B) the amount of the adjustment(s), if any, calculated in accordance with Section 2.6(b) hereof (the “Estimated Closing Balance Sheet Certificate”), and (iii) a certification of each of the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer that, based solely on the knowledge of such signing officer, the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet, the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet Certificate and the related financial statements delivered in accordance with this Section 2.6(a) fairly present, in all material respects, the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of the Company for the periods and dates so covered.

(b) Adjustment.

(i) Estimated Closing Working Capital. If the Closing Working Capital stated in the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet Certificate (the “Estimated Closing Working Capital”) is less than $20,384,000 (such working capital amount, the “Target Working Capital”), the Initial Merger Consideration payable as of the Closing will be reduced by an amount equal to $0.5967 multiplied by the difference between the Estimated Closing Working Capital and the Target Working Capital. If the Estimated Closing Working Capital is more than the Target Working Capital, the Initial Merger Consideration payable as of the Closing will be increased by an amount equal to $0.5967 multiplied by the difference between the Target Working Capital and the Estimated Working Capital.

2.7 Post-Closing Adjustment.

(a) As soon as commercially practicable but in no event later than the earlier of (i) 10 days after the filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by the Purchaser of the first periodic report on Form 10-Q or Form 10-K that the Purchaser files at least 30 days after the Closing Date, or (ii) 90 days after the Closing Date, the Purchaser will prepare and deliver to the Shareholder Representative (with contemporaneous delivery to the Escrow and Exchange Agent if the Purchaser claims that it is entitled to payment pursuant to Section 2.7(f)) written notice (the “Adjustment Notice”) containing (i) an unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of the close of business on the Closing Date (the “Closing Balance Sheet”), (ii) the Purchaser’s calculation of Closing Working Capital (the “Final Closing Working Capital”), based on the Closing Balance Sheet, and (iii) the Purchaser’s calculation of the amount of any payments required pursuant to Section 2.7(f) (the “Adjustment Calculation”). The Closing Balance Sheet will be prepared in accordance with PRC GAAP or Hong Kong GAAP, as appropriate, applied on a basis that is consistent with the Interim Balance Sheet but in all instances in accordance with PRC GAAP or Hong Kong GAAP, as appropriate.

(b) Within 30 days after delivery of the Adjustment Notice, the Shareholder Representative will deliver to the Purchaser (with contemporaneous delivery to the Escrow and Exchange Agent if the Purchaser claims that it is entitled to payment pursuant to Section 2.7(f)) a written response in which the Shareholder Representative will either:

(i) agree in writing with the Adjustment Calculation, in which case such calculation will be final and binding on the parties for purposes of Section 2.7(f); or

(ii) dispute the Adjustment Calculation by delivering to the Purchaser a written notice (a “Dispute Notice”) setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for each such disputed item and certifying that all such disputed items are being disputed in good faith.

For purposes of this Section 2.7(b), the Shareholder Representative may only deliver a Dispute Notice on the basis that the Purchaser’s calculations of Final Closing Working Capital were not in accordance with PRC GAAP or Hong Kong GAAP, as appropriate, applied on a basis consistent with the Interim Balance Sheet, or that the Adjustment Calculation contains mathematical errors on its face.

(c) If the Shareholder Representative fails to take either of the foregoing actions within 30 days after its receipt of the Adjustment Notice, then the Securityholders will be deemed to have irrevocably accepted the Adjustment Calculation, in which case, the Adjustment Calculation will be final and binding on the parties for purposes of Section 2.7(f).

(d) If the Shareholder Representative timely delivers a Dispute Notice to the Purchaser, then the Purchaser and the Shareholder Representative will attempt in good faith, for a period of 30 days, to agree on the Adjustment Calculation for purposes of Section 2.7(f). Any resolution by the Purchaser and the Shareholder Representative during such 30-day period as to any disputed items will be final and binding on the parties for purposes of Section 2.7(f). If the Purchaser and the Shareholder Representative do not resolve all disputed items by the end of 30 days after the date of delivery of the Dispute Notice, then the Purchaser and the Shareholder Representative will jointly select and engage a mutually agreeable independent accounting firm of recognized standing, which firm is not the regular auditing firm of the Purchaser or the Company, and submit the remaining items in dispute to such independent accounting firm. If the Purchaser and the Shareholder Representative are unable to jointly select such independent accounting firm within 10 days after such 30-day period, the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Shareholder Representative, on the other hand, will each select an independent accounting firm of recognized standing and each such selected accounting firm will select a third independent accounting firm of recognized international standing, which firm is not the regular auditing firm of the Purchaser or the Company; provided, however, that if either the Purchaser, on the one hand, or the Shareholder Representative, on the other hand, fails to select such independent accounting firm during this 10-day period, then the parties agree that the independent accounting firm selected by the other party will be the independent accounting firm selected by the parties for purposes of this Section 2.7 (such selected independent accounting firm, whether pursuant to this sentence or the preceding sentence, the “Independent Accounting Firm”). The Purchaser and the Shareholder Representative will instruct the Independent Accounting Firm to render its determination with respect to the items in dispute in a written report that specifies the conclusions of the Independent Accounting Firm as to each item in dispute and the resulting Adjustment Calculation. The Purchaser and the Shareholder Representative will each use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Independent Accounting Firm to render its determination within 30 days after referral of the items to such firm or as soon thereafter as reasonably practicable. The Independent Accounting Firm’s determination of the Adjustment Calculation as set forth in its report will be final and binding on the parties for purposes of Section 2.7(f). The Purchaser will revise the Closing Balance Sheet and the calculation of Final Closing Working Capital as appropriate to reflect the resolution of the issues in dispute pursuant to this Section 2.7(d) and the Purchaser will provide instructions to the Escrow and Exchange Agent consistent with such resolution. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm will be shared by the Purchaser and the Securityholders in inverse proportion to the relative amounts of the disputed amount determined to be for the account of the Purchaser and the Securityholders, respectively.

(e) For purposes of complying with this Section 2.7, the Purchaser and the Shareholder Representative will furnish to each other and to the Independent Accounting Firm such work papers and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues as the Independent Accounting Firm may request and are available to that party (or its independent public accountants) and will be afforded the opportunity to present to the Independent Accounting Firm any material related to the disputed items and to discuss the items with the Independent Accounting Firm. The Purchaser may require that the Independent Accounting Firm enter into a customary form of confidentiality agreement with respect to the work papers and other documents and information regarding the Company provided to the Independent Accounting Firm pursuant to this Section 2.7.

(f) If the Final Closing Working Capital as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.7 is less than the Estimated Closing Working Capital, then the Purchaser will be entitled to recover the difference multiplied by $0.5967 from the Purchase Price Adjustment Fund in accordance with the provisions hereof and of the Escrow Agreement. If the Final Closing Working Capital as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.7 is greater than the Estimated Closing Working Capital, then the Purchaser shall deposit the excess amount multiplied by $0.5967 into the Purchase Price Adjustment Fund for immediate distribution to the Securityholders in the proportions set forth in the Final Merger Consideration Allocation Schedule and in accordance with the Escrow Agreement.

(g) The purpose of this Section 2.7 is to determine the final amount of Initial Merger Consideration to be paid by the Purchaser under this Agreement. Accordingly, any adjustment pursuant hereto will neither be deemed to be an indemnification pursuant to Article 9, nor preclude the Purchaser from exercising any indemnification rights pursuant to Article 9 or Article 10 hereof; provided, however, that in no event will the Shareholders be obligated to indemnify any Purchaser Indemnified Party for any Loss arising out of, resulting from, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by any Liability, to the extent, but only to the extent, such Liability is reflected in the calculation of the Final Closing Working Capital, as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.7. Any payment made pursuant to this Section 2.7 will be treated by the parties for all purposes as a decrease in the Merger Consideration and will not be subject to offset for any reason.

2.9 Earnout.

(a) Subject to the terms set forth herein, the Purchaser will pay to the Securityholders and to Pool Participants pursuant to Section 2.10, as additional consideration, an amount (the “Earnout”) in cash not to exceed $5,967,264, calculated as follows (the “Earnout Calculation”):

(i) an amount equal to $2,983,632 (the “Initial Earnout Consideration”), to be paid only if the Gross Profit during the period commencing on July 4, 2010 and ending on July 3, 2011 (such amount, referred to as the “Earnout Period Profit”, and such period, referred to as the “Earnout Period”) is equal to or exceeds $8,718,000; and

(ii) an amount equal to the product of (x) the Earnout Period Profit minus $8,718,000 and (y) $1.2223 (the “Additional Earnout Consideration”). In no event will the Additional Earnout Consideration exceed $2,983,632, and the Additional Earnout Consideration will only be payable if the Earnout Period Profit exceeds $8,718,000.

(b) The actual aggregate amount of cash payable as the Earnout pursuant to the two calculations set forth in subsection (i) above (the “Aggregate Earnout Amount”) will be determined on the basis of the Gross Profit. In no event will the Purchaser be obligated to pay any amounts in the aggregate in excess of $5,967,264 under this Section 2.9 and under Section 2.10 as the Aggregate Earnout Amount, irrespective of the amount of Gross Profit during the Earnout Period. The Purchaser shall pay to Securityholders eighty percent (80%) of the Initial Earnout Consideration and eighty percent (80%) of the Additional Earnout Consideration. The Aggregate Earnout Amount will be payable in accordance with subsection (c) below and Section 2.10.

(c) As soon as practicable but in no event later than the earlier of (i) 10 days after the filing with the SEC by the Purchaser of the first periodic report on Form 10-Q or Form 10-K that the Purchaser files at least 30 days after the expiration of the Earnout Period, or (ii) 90 days after the expiration of the Earnout Period, the Purchaser will deliver to the Shareholder Representative a computation of the Earnout Period Profit (the “Earnout Statement”). Unless within 20 days after receipt of such computation, the Shareholder Representative tenders written notice to the Purchaser setting forth any and all items of disagreement relating to such computation, the computation will be conclusive and binding on the Securityholders. The Purchaser will deposit with the Escrow and Exchange Agent via wire transfer within such 20-day period an amount equal to eighty percent (80%) of the Aggregate Earnout Amount based on the Earnout Period Profit set forth in such Earnout Statement. With respect to any portion of the Aggregate Earnout Amount set forth in the Earnout Statement that is not disputed by the Shareholder Representative, the Escrow and Exchange Agent will pay to the Shareholders and the holders of Convertible Options, as applicable, in each case in the proportions set forth in the Final Merger Consideration Allocation Schedule such undisputed portion of the Aggregate Earnout Amount, as soon as practicable but in no event later than 10 days following the expiration of such 20-day period.

(d) If the Shareholder Representative delivers a dispute notice within such 20-day period, the Purchaser and the Shareholder Representative will attempt in good faith, for a period of 10 days, to resolve their differences. Any resolution by the Purchaser and Shareholder Representative during such 10-day period as to any disputed items will be final and binding on the parties for purposes of Section 2.9. If the Purchaser and the Shareholder Representative are unable to resolve their differences within such period, the Purchaser and the Shareholder Representative will jointly select and retain a mutually agreeable independent accounting firm of recognized standing, which firm is not the regular auditing firm of the Purchaser or the Company and submit the items in dispute to such independent accounting firm. If the Purchaser and the Shareholder Representative are unable to jointly select such independent accounting firm within 10 days after such 10-day period, the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Shareholder Representative, on the other hand, will each select an independent accounting firm of recognized standing and each such selected accounting firm will select a third independent accounting firm of recognized international standing, which firm is not the regular auditing firm of the Purchaser or the Company; provided, however, that if either the Purchaser, on the one hand, or the Shareholder Representative, on the other hand, fail to select such independent accounting firm during this 10-day period, then the parties agree that the independent accounting firm selected by the other party will be the independent accounting firm selected by the parties for purposes of this Section 2.9(d) (such selected independent accounting firm, whether pursuant to this sentence or the preceding sentence, the “Earnout Referee”) The Purchaser and Shareholder Representative will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Earnout Referee to render its determination as to the computation of Gross Profit within 45 days after its retention or as soon thereafter as reasonably practicable. In making such resolution, the Earnout Referee will consider only those items or amounts in the Earnout Statement as to which Shareholder Representative has disagreed in writing. The Earnout Referee’s final determination (the “Final Earnout Report”) will be in writing and will be binding on the Purchaser and the Securityholders, and the fees and expenses of the Earnout Referee will be allocated between the parties in the same proportion that the aggregate amount of dispute items so submitted to the Earnout Referee that is unsuccessfully disputed by such Party (as finally determined by the Earnout Referee) bears to the total amount of such remaining disputed items so submitted. In the event that any amount is payable as a portion of the Earnout Amount following the final resolution of a dispute hereunder, the Purchaser will deposit such amount with the Escrow and Exchange Agent via wire transfer of immediately available funds as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than five (5) Business Days following the receipt of the Final Earnout Report, and the Escrow and Exchange Agent will pay such amount to the Securityholders, in each case in the proportions set forth in the Final Merger Consideration Allocation Schedule, within five (5) Business Days following the receipt of such funds from the Purchaser.

(e) For purposes of complying with this Section 2.9, the Purchaser and the Shareholder Representative will furnish to each other and to the Earnout Referee such work papers and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues as the Earnout Referee may request and are available to that party (or its independent public accountants). The Purchaser may require that the Earnout Referee enter into a customary form of confidentiality agreement with respect to the work papers and other documents and information regarding the Company provided to the Earnout Referee pursuant to this Section 2.9.

(f) The Purchaser agrees, with respect to the Earnout, except as otherwise agreed by the Shareholder Representative, such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, that, during the Earnout Period:

(i) it will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Acquired Companies with such resources as are reasonably required to support the manufacture and sale of the Company Products;

(ii) it will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Company Products to be integrated with its existing products; and

(iii) it will cause the Company to maintain a cost structure substantially consistent with the Company’s operating budget plan (the “Operating Plan”) attached hereto as Exhibit E; provided, that, the Purchaser may in good faith revise the Operating Plan and the Company’s cost structure in light of the Company’s actual operating profits during the Earnout Period and in light of global or national political conditions or general economic or market conditions affecting the Company or its business.

Subject to the foregoing, the Company and the Shareholder Representative acknowledge that (i) upon the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Purchaser has the right to operate the Acquired Companies and the Purchaser’s other businesses in any way that the Purchaser deems appropriate in the Purchaser’s sole and absolute discretion, (ii) the Purchaser has no obligation to operate the Acquired Companies solely in order to achieve the payment of any Earnout Amount or to maximize the amount of the Aggregate Earnout Amount during the Earnout Period, (iii) the Earnout Amount is speculative and is subject to numerous factors outside the control of the Purchaser, (iv) there is no assurance that the Securityholders will receive any Aggregate Earnout Amount and the Purchaser has not promised nor projected any Aggregate Earnout Amount, (v) the Aggregate Earnout and the definition of Gross Profit are based on forecasted financial projections prepared by the Company, which are based on numerous assumptions and qualifications and (vi) the Parties solely intend the express provisions of this Agreement to govern their contractual relationship.

2.10 Performance Bonus Pool. Following the final calculation of Initial Earnout Consideration and Additional Earnout Consideration pursuant to Section 2.9, the Purchaser shall establish a performance bonus pool (the “Performance Pool”), which shall be a cash amount equal to 20% of the aggregate of the Initial Earnout Consideration and the Additional Earnout Consideration, it being understood that the Performance Pool shall only be established if the aggregate of the Initial Earnout Consideration and the Additional Earnout Consideration is greater than $0.00. Purchaser shall pay the Performance Pool to employees of the Company, as of the date of this Agreement, who continue as employees of the Purchaser after the Closing (“Pool Participants”). The management of the Purchaser shall, at its sole discretion, determine the exact portions of the Performance Pool to be paid to specific Pool Participants. Payments pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be made no later than a reasonable time after the final Earnout Payment to Securityholders pursuant to Section 2.9. The Performance Pool shall be based on Earnout Period Profit set forth in the Earnout Statement, as determined by Section 2.9 and the Pool Participants shall have no right to dispute the Earnout Period Profit or Earnout Statement, as determined by Section 2.9. In no event shall the Performance Pool exceed twenty percent (20%) of $5,967,264. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Performance Pool and any amounts therefrom paid to the Pool Participants pursuant to this Section 2.10 do not constitute Merger Consideration for purposes of this Agreement or for any other purpose.

2.11 Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Purchaser with control over, and to vest the Surviving Company with full right, title and possession to, all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company, the officers and directors of the Company and the Shareholder Representative will and are hereby authorized to, in the name of their respective corporations or otherwise, take all such lawful and necessary action as may be requested by the Purchaser.

(i) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive all of the Losses at issue in the Claim Notice; or

(ii) dispute the Indemnified Party’s entitlement to indemnification by delivering to the Indemnified Party a written notice (an “Objection Notice”) setting forth in reasonable detail each disputed item, the basis for each such disputed item and certifying that all such disputed items are being disputed in good faith.

(c) If the Indemnifying Party fails to take either of the foregoing actions within 30 days after delivery of the Claim Notice, then the Indemnifying Party will be deemed to have irrevocably accepted the Claim Notice and the Indemnifying Party will be deemed to have irrevocably agreed to pay the Losses at issue in the Claim Notice; provided, that if the Losses are incurred or suffered or arise out of the matters specified in Section 9.1, the payment by the Indemnifying Party shall be 0.5967 multiplied by the amount of Losses claimed in the Claim Notice.

(g) The foregoing indemnification payments will be made within five Business Days after the date on which (i) the amount of such payments are determined by mutual agreement of the parties, (ii) the amount of such payments are determined pursuant to Section 9.3(c) if an Objection Notice has not been timely delivered in accordance with Section 9.3(b) or (iii) both such amount and the Indemnifying Party’s obligation to pay such amount have been determined by a final Judgment of a court having jurisdiction over such proceeding as permitted by Section 11.11 if an Objection Notice has been timely delivered in accordance with Section 9.3(b) (the “Settlement Date”).

For purposes of Section 9.3 and Section 9.4, (i) if the Shareholders comprise the Indemnifying Party, any references to the Indemnifying Party (except provisions relating to an obligation to make or a right to receive any payments) will be deemed to refer to the Shareholder Representative and (ii) if the Shareholders comprise the Indemnified Party, any references to the Indemnified Party (except provisions relating to an obligation to make or a right to receive any payments) will be deemed to refer to the Shareholder Representative.

9.4 Third Party Claims.

(a) In the event that the Indemnified Party is entitled, or is seeking to assert rights, to indemnification under this Article 9 relating to a claim by another Person, then the Indemnified Party will deliver a Claim Notice to the Indemnifying Party and will include in such Claim Notice (i) notice of the commencement of any Proceeding relating to such claim within 30 days after the Indemnified Party has received written notice of the commencement of such Proceeding, and (ii) the facts constituting the basis for such Proceeding and the amount of the damages claimed by the other Person, in each case to the extent known to the Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no delay or deficiency on the part of the Indemnified Party in so notifying the Indemnifying Party will relieve the Indemnifying Party of any Liability or obligation under this Agreement except to the extent the Indemnifying Party has suffered actual Losses directly caused by the delay or other deficiency.

(b) Within 30 days after the Indemnified Party’s delivery of notice of the commencement of such Proceeding under this Section 9.4, the Indemnifying Party may assume control of the defense of such Proceeding by giving to the Indemnified Party written notice of the intention to assume such defense, but if and only if the Indemnifying Party further:

(i) acknowledges in writing to the Indemnified Party that any Losses that may be assessed in connection with such Proceeding constitute Losses for which the Indemnified Party will be indemnified pursuant to this Article 9 without contest or objection and that the Indemnifying Party will advance all expenses and costs of defense; and

(ii) retains counsel for the defense of such Proceeding reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and furnishes to the Indemnified Party evidence satisfactory to the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party has and will have sufficient financial resources to fund on a current basis the cost of such defense and paying all Losses that may arise under the claim.

However, in the event that the Shareholders are the Indemnifying Party, in no event may the Indemnifying Party assume or maintain control of the defense of any Proceeding (A) involving criminal liability, (B) involving claims relating to any Company Intellectual Property or the Intellectual Property of another Person, (C) in which any relief other than monetary damages is sought against the Indemnified Party, or (D) in which the outcome of any Judgment or settlement in the matter could materially adversely affect the business of any of (I) the Purchaser, (II) the business unit of the Purchaser that acquires the Company, or (III) the Company or the Surviving Company. An Indemnifying Party will lose any previously acquired right to control the defense of any Proceeding if for any reason the Indemnifying Party ceases to actively, competently and diligently conduct the defense.

(c) If the Indemnifying Party does not, or is not able to, assume or maintain control of such defense in compliance with Section 9.4(b), the Indemnified Party will have the right to control such defense. If the Indemnified Party controls such defense, the Indemnifying Party agrees to pay to the Indemnified Party promptly upon demand from time to time all reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses of defense. The party not controlling such defense (the “Noncontrolling Party”) may participate therein at its own expense. However, if the Indemnifying Party assumes control of such defense and the Indemnified Party reasonably concludes that the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party have conflicting interests or different defenses available with respect to such Proceeding, then the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party will be considered and included as “Losses” for purposes of this Agreement. The party controlling such defense (the “Controlling Party”) will reasonably advise the Noncontrolling Party of the status of such Proceeding and the defense thereof and will consider in good faith recommendations made by the Noncontrolling Party. The Noncontrolling Party will furnish the Controlling Party with such information as it may have with respect to such Proceeding (including copies of any summons, complaint or other pleading which may have been served on such party and any written claim, demand, invoice, billing or other document evidencing or asserting the same) and will otherwise cooperate with and assist the Controlling Party in the defense of such Proceeding.

(d) If the Indemnified Party is controlling the defense of such Proceeding, the Indemnified Party has the right to agree in good faith to any compromise or settlement of, or the entry of any Judgment arising from, such Proceeding without prior notice to or consent of the Indemnifying Party. All amounts paid or payable under such settlement or Judgment are Losses that the Indemnifying Party owes to the Indemnified Party under this Article 9. The Indemnifying Party will not agree to any compromise or settlement of, or the entry of any Judgment arising from, any such Proceeding without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent the Indemnified Party will not unreasonably withhold or delay. The Indemnified Party will have no Liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of, or the entry of any Judgment arising from, any such Proceeding effected without its consent.

(e) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article 9, if a Person not a party to this Agreement asserts that a Purchaser Indemnified Party is liable to such Person for a monetary or other obligation which relates to any of items (A) – (D) of Section 9.4(b) hereof for which the Purchaser Indemnified Party may be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article 9, and the Purchaser Indemnified Party reasonably determines that it has a business reason to fulfill such obligation, then (i) the Purchaser Indemnified Party will be entitled to satisfy such obligation, with notice to the Indemnifying Party, (ii) the Purchaser Indemnified Party may subsequently make a claim for indemnification in accordance with the provisions of this Article 9 and (iii) the Purchaser Indemnified Party will be reimbursed, in accordance with the provisions of this Article 9, for any such Losses for which it is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article 9, subject to the right of the Indemnifying Party to dispute the Purchaser Indemnified Party’s entitlement to indemnification.

(f) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 11.11, the Shareholder Representative consents to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any court in which a Proceeding is brought by another Person against any Purchaser Indemnified Party for purposes of any claim that a Purchaser Indemnified Party may have under this Agreement with respect to the Proceeding or the matters alleged therein, but only to the extent that the participation of the Shareholder Representative in such Proceeding is necessary for the Purchaser Indemnified Parties to properly conduct the defense of such Proceeding. In such circumstances, the Shareholder Representative agrees that process may be served on them with respect to such a claim anywhere in the world.

9.5 Survival.

(a) All representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and any certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement will survive the Closing, irrespective of any facts known to any Indemnified Party at or prior to the Closing or any investigation at any time made by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party, for a period of 12 months from the Closing Date (the “Indemnification Period”); provided, however, that (i) representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.15 (Tax Matters), and the corresponding right to make claims thereunder, will survive until the expiration of the statute of limitations applicable to the underlying matters covered by such provision, (ii) the representations and warranties in Section 3.4 (Capitalization and Ownership), and the corresponding right to make claims thereunder, will survive for a period of 36 months from the Closing Date , (iii) in the event of fraud or willful misconduct, the corresponding right to make claims will survive until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations for such claims and (iv) representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.2(a) (Authority and Enforceability) ), and the corresponding right to make claims thereunder, will survive indefinitely, and (v) the right to indemnification for Losses pursuant to Section 9.1(i) will survive for a period of 36 months from the Closing Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, all covenants to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date shall survive the Closing in accordance with their terms and the rights of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties and the Shareholders to make claims for indemnification or reimbursement based upon any covenant to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date will survive indefinitely.

(b) If an Indemnified Party delivers to an Indemnifying Party, before expiration of a representation or warranty, either a Claim Notice based upon a breach of any such representation or warranty, or a notice that, as a result of a Proceeding instituted or claim made by a Person not a party to this Agreement, the Indemnified Party reasonably expects to incur Losses, then the applicable representation or warranty will survive until, but only for purposes of, the resolution of the matter covered by such notice. If the Proceeding or written claim with respect to which such notice has been given is definitively withdrawn or resolved in favor of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party will promptly so notify the Indemnifying Party.

9.6 Limitations on Liability.

(a) Except as set forth in Sections 9.6(d) and (f) below, the rights of a Purchaser Indemnified Party to assert claims against the Escrow Fund under this Article 9 will be the sole and exclusive remedy of a Purchaser Indemnified Party for any such claims under Article 9 (other than with respect to any equitable remedies available to any Purchaser Indemnified Party) and no Shareholder will have any liability in excess of its pro rata share of the Escrow Fund.

(b) Notwithstanding anything contained here to the contrary, the Shareholders will not be obligated to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnified Parties under this Agreement unless and until the aggregate Losses subject to such indemnification collectively exceed $223,772 (the “Threshold”), whereupon such indemnification will be made by the Shareholders with respect to the aggregate amount of such Losses; provided, however, that the Threshold will not apply to the matters described in Sections 9.1(e), 9.1(f), 9.1(g), 9.1(h), or 9.1(i) hereof.

(c) Notwithstanding anything contained here to the contrary, the Purchaser will not be obligated to indemnify the Shareholders under this Agreement unless and until the aggregate Losses subject to such indemnification collectively exceed the Threshold, whereupon such indemnification will be made by the Purchaser with respect to the aggregate amount of such Losses. Except as set forth in Section 9.6 (e) and (f) below, in no event will the Purchaser’s Liability under this Agreement exceed the dollar amount that is equivalent to the Escrow Fund amount.

(d) The Securityholders shall be severally liable for any Losses of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties arising under (i) Section 9.1(a), solely as Section 9.1(a) relates to a breach of any representation or warranty of the Company in Section 3.2 (Authority and Enforceability), Section 3.4 (Capitalization and Ownership) and Section 3.15 (Tax Matters) (ii) Section 9.1(b), (iii) Section 9.1(f), (iv) Section 9.1(h), or (v) Section 9.1(i). The aggregate Liability of the Securityholders under this Section 9.6(d) shall be fifty percent (50%) of the aggregate amount of the Merger Consideration.

(e) The aggregate Liability of the Purchaser for a breach of Section 9.2(a), solely as Section 9.2(a) relates to a breach of any representation or warranty of the Purchaser in Section 4.3 (Authority and Enforceability) shall be the aggregate amount of the Merger Consideration.

(f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement limits the Liability of a party to another party for fraud or willful misconduct.

9.7 No Right of Indemnification or Contribution. No Shareholder has any right of indemnification or contribution against the Company with respect to any breach by the Shareholders of any of their representations, warranties, covenants or agreements in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, whether by virtue of any contractual or statutory right of indemnity or otherwise, and all claims to the contrary are hereby waived and released.

9.8 Exercise of Remedies by Purchaser Indemnified Parties other than the Purchaser. No Purchaser Indemnified Party (other than the Purchaser or any successor or assignee of the Purchaser) is entitled to assert any indemnification claim or exercise any other remedy under this Agreement unless the Purchaser (or any successor or assignee of the Purchaser) consents to the assertion of the indemnification claim or the exercise of any other remedy.

ARTICLE 10

TAX MATTERS

10.1 Tax Covenants.

Unless otherwise stated, for purposes of this Section 10.1, references to “the Company” will be deemed to include all of the Acquired Companies.

(a) Subject to the limitations set forth in Article 9, the Shareholders will have an obligation during the Indemnification Period, on an individual basis solely in proportion to the aggregate Merger Consideration payable to them pursuant to this Agreement, to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Purchaser Indemnified Party against all Losses (i) relating to Taxes imposed on the Company for any taxable year or period that ends on or before the Closing Date and, with respect to any Straddle Period, the portion of such Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date, (ii) incurred or suffered by any Purchaser Indemnified Party directly or indirectly arising out of, relating to or resulting from any breach of any tax filing or reporting obligations by the Shareholders set forth in Section 2.12, (iii) incurred or suffered by any Purchaser Indemnified Party directly or indirectly arising out of, relating to or resulting from any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Section 3.15 or (iv) incurred or suffered by any Purchaser Indemnified Party as a result of deprivation or disallowance of any Relief which would have been available to the Company as a result of any transaction, matter or event effected or happened on or before the Closing Date if there had been no such deprivation or disallowance.

(b) Subject to the limitations set forth in Article 9, the Purchaser will have an obligation to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Shareholder from and against any Losses actually incurred by such Shareholder relating to Taxes imposed on the Company, or for which the Company may otherwise be liable, for any taxable year or period that begins after the Closing Date and, with respect to any Straddle Period, the portion of such Straddle Period beginning after the Closing Date. The Purchaser will be entitled to any refund of (or credit for) Taxes allocable to any taxable year or period that begins after the Closing Date and, with respect to any Straddle Period, the portion of such Straddle Period beginning after the Closing Date.

(c) For purposes of Sections 10.1(a) and 10.1(b), whenever it is necessary to determine the liability for Taxes of the Company for a Straddle Period, the determination of the Taxes of the Company for the portion of the Straddle Period ending on and including, and the portion of the Straddle Period beginning after, the Closing Date will be determined in the following manner:

(i) in the case of any Taxes that are either based on or related to income or receipts by assuming that the Straddle Period consisted of two taxable years or periods, one which ended at the close of the Closing Date and the other which began at the beginning of the day following the Closing Date, and items of income, gain, deduction, loss or credit of the Company for the Straddle Period will be allocated between such two taxable years or periods on a “closing of the books basis” by assuming that the books of the Company were closed at the close of the Closing Date; provided, however, that exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis, such as the deduction for depreciation, will be apportioned between such two taxable years or periods on a daily basis; and

(ii) in the case of Taxes not described in subparagraph (i) above that are imposed on a periodic basis and measured by the level of any item, such Taxes will be deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire period (or, in the case of such Taxes determined on an arrears basis, the amount of such Taxes for the immediately preceding period) multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is either the number of calendar days in the Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date or the number of calendar days in the Straddle Period after the Closing Date, as the case may be, and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire relevant period.

(d) In the event of any deprivation or disallowance of a Relief, there shall be for the purpose of Section 10.1(a) above treated as an amount of Tax for which a Loss has arisen, the amount of such Relief or repayment or (if smaller) the amount by which the Tax of the Company would have been reduced by the Relief if there had been no such deprivation or disallowance as aforesaid, applying the relevant rates of Tax in force in the period or periods in respect of which the Relief would have applied or (where the rate has at the relevant time not been fixed) the last known rate and assuming that the Company had sufficient profits against which the Relief might be set or given.

10.2 Assistance and Cooperation. The Purchaser, the Company and the Shareholder Representative will cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Agreement and any Proceeding with respect to Taxes.

10.3 Tax Sharing Agreement. Any tax sharing agreements or arrangements to which the Company may be a party or have liability will be terminated effective as of the Closing. After the Closing, neither the Shareholders nor their Affiliates will have any further rights or liabilities thereunder, and this Agreement will be the sole Tax sharing agreement relating to the Company for all periods beginning before the Closing.

10.4 Powers of Attorney. Any power of attorney or similar agreement to which the Company may be a party with respect to Taxes will be terminated effective as of the Closing.

ARTICLE 11

GENERAL PROVISIONS

11.1 Shareholder Representative.

(a) By virtue of their approval of the Merger, each Securityholder designates and appoints the Shareholder Representative as such Securityholder’s agent and attorney-in-fact with full power and authority to act for and on behalf of each Securityholder to give and receive notices and communications, to accept service of process on behalf of the Shareholders pursuant to Section 9.4(f) and Section 11.11, to authorize and agree to adjustments to the Merger Consideration under Sections 2.6 and 2.7 and other applicable provisions of this Agreement, to agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and comply with Judgments of courts or other Governmental Authorities and awards of arbitrators, with respect to, any claims by any Purchaser Indemnified Party against any Shareholder or by any Shareholder against any Purchaser Indemnified Party, or any other dispute between any Purchaser Indemnified Party and any Securityholder, in each case relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to take all actions that are either (i) necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Shareholder Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing or (ii) specifically mandated by the terms of this Agreement. Notices or communications to or from the Shareholder Representative constitute notice to or from each of the Securityholders for all purposes under this Agreement.

(b) The Shareholder Representative may delegate its authority as Shareholder Representative to any one of the Shareholders for a fixed or indeterminate period of time upon not fewer than 10 Business Days’ prior written notice to the Purchaser in accordance with Section 11.2. In the event of the death or incapacity of the Shareholder Representative, a successor Shareholder Representative will be elected promptly by the Shareholders whose interests aggregate not less than a majority of the Net Notional Merger Consideration and the Securityholders will so notify the Purchaser. Each successor Shareholder Representative has all of the power, authority, rights and privileges conferred by this Agreement upon the original Shareholder Representative, and the term “Shareholder Representative” as used in this Agreement includes any successor Shareholder Representative.

(c) A decision, act, consent or instruction of the Shareholder Representative constitutes a decision of all the Securityholders and is final, binding and conclusive upon the Securityholders, and the Purchaser and any Indemnified Party may rely upon any such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Shareholder Representative as being the decision, act, consent or instruction of the Securityholders. The Purchaser is hereby relieved from any Liability to any Person for any acts done or omissions by the Purchaser in accordance with such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Shareholder Representative. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Purchaser is entitled to rely, without inquiry, upon any document delivered by the Shareholder Representative as being genuine and correct and having been duly signed or sent by the Shareholder Representative.

(d) The Shareholder Representative will have no Liability to any Person for any act done or omitted under this Agreement as the Shareholder Representative while acting in good faith and not in a manner constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct, and any act done or omitted pursuant to the advice of counsel will be conclusive evidence of such good faith. The Securityholders will severally indemnify and hold harmless the Shareholder Representative from and against any Losses the Shareholder Representative may suffer as a result of any such action or omission.

(e) The Shareholder Representative will receive no compensation for services as the Shareholder Representative. The Securityholders will reimburse, on a pro rata basis in proportion to their interest in the Merger Consideration, the Shareholder Representative for professional fees and expenses of any attorney, accountant or other advisors retained by the Shareholder Representative and other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Shareholder Representative in connection with the performance of the Shareholder Representative’s duties under this Agreement.

(f) This appointment and grant of power and authority by the Securityholders to the Shareholder Representative pursuant to this Section 11.1 is coupled with an interest, is in consideration of the mutual covenants made in this Agreement, is irrevocable and may not be terminated by the act of any Shareholder or by operation of Law, whether upon the death or incapacity of any Shareholder, or by the occurrence of any other event.

11.2 Notices. All notices and other communications under this Agreement must be in writing and are deemed duly delivered when (a) delivered if delivered personally or by nationally recognized overnight courier service (costs prepaid), (b) sent by facsimile with confirmation of transmission by the transmitting equipment (or, the first Business Day following such transmission if the date of transmission is not a Business Day), (c) received or rejected by the addressee, if sent by certified mail, return receipt requested or (d) sent by electronic email with confirmation of delivery; in each case to the following addresses, facsimile numbers or electronic mail address and marked to the attention of the individual (by name or title) designated below (or to such other address, facsimile number or individual as a party may designate by notice to the other parties):

11.3 Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except in a written document signed by each party to be bound by the amendment and that identifies itself as an amendment to this Agreement. Any amendment of this Agreement signed by the Shareholder Representative is binding upon and effective against each Shareholder regardless of whether or not such Shareholder has in fact signed such amendment.

11.4 Waiver and Remedies. The parties may (a) extend the time for performance of any of the obligations or other acts of any other party to this Agreement, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of any other party to this Agreement contained in this Agreement or in any certificate, instrument or document delivered pursuant to this Agreement or (c) waive compliance with any of the covenants, agreements or conditions for the benefit of such party contained in this Agreement. Any such extension or waiver by any party to this Agreement will be valid only if set forth in a written document signed on behalf of the party or parties against whom the waiver or extension is to be effective. Any such extension or waiver signed by the Shareholder Representative is binding upon and effective against each Shareholder regardless of whether or not such Shareholder has in fact signed the extension or waiver. No extension or waiver will apply to any time for performance, inaccuracy in any representation or warranty, or noncompliance with any covenant, agreement or condition, as the case may be, other than that which is specified in the written extension or waiver. No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right or remedy under this Agreement or any of the documents delivered pursuant to this Agreement, and no course of dealing among the parties, operates as a waiver of such right or remedy, and no single or partial exercise of any such right or remedy precludes any other or further exercise of such right or remedy or the exercise of any other right or remedy. Any enumeration of a party’s rights and remedies in this Agreement is not intended to be exclusive, and a party’s rights and remedies are intended to be cumulative to the extent permitted by law and include any rights and remedies authorized in law or in equity.

11.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the schedules and exhibits hereto and the documents and instruments referred to in this Agreement that are to be delivered at the Closing) constitutes the entire agreement among the parties and supersedes any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the parties, or any of them, written or oral, with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.

11.6 Assignment and Successors. This Agreement binds and benefits the parties and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, except that the Company may not assign any rights under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Purchaser. No party may delegate any performance of its obligations under this Agreement, except that the Purchaser may at any time delegate the performance of its obligations to any Affiliate of the Purchaser so long as the Purchaser remains fully responsible for the performance of the delegated obligation. Nothing expressed or referred to in this Agreement will be construed to give any Person, other than the parties to this Agreement, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or with respect to this Agreement or any provision of this Agreement except such rights as may inure to a successor or permitted assignee under this Section.

11.7 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement are not affected or impaired in any way and the parties agree to negotiate in good faith to replace such invalid, illegal and unenforceable provision with a valid, legal and enforceable provision that achieves, to the greatest lawful extent under this Agreement, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.

11.8 Exhibits and Schedules. The exhibits and schedules to this Agreement are incorporated herein by reference and made a part of this Agreement. The Company Disclosure Schedule is arranged in sections and paragraphs corresponding to the numbered and lettered sections and paragraphs of Article 3. The disclosure in any section or paragraph of the Company Disclosure Schedule qualifies other sections and paragraphs in this Agreement only to the extent it is clear by appropriate cross-references that a given disclosure is applicable to such other sections and paragraphs. The listing or inclusion of a copy of a document or other item is not adequate to disclose an exception to any representation or warranty in this Agreement unless the representation or warranty relates to the existence of the document or item itself.

11.9 Interpretation. The language used in this Agreement is the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no provision of this Agreement will be interpreted for or against any party because that party or its attorney drafted the provision.

11.10 Governing Law. The internal laws of the British Virgin Islands will govern the provisions of this Agreement which relate to mechanics of the Merger and its effects. With respect to all other matters, unless any exhibit or schedule specifies a different choice of law, the internal laws of the State of California (without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of California or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of laws of any other jurisdiction) govern all matters arising out of or relating to this Agreement and its exhibits and schedules and all of the transactions it contemplates, including its validity, interpretation, construction, performance and enforcement and any disputes or controversies arising therefrom.

11.11 Dispute Resolution.

(a) Generally. Subject to the provisions of Sections 2.7, 2.9 and 9.3 hereof, any dispute, claim or controversy arising from or related in any way to this Agreement, or the interpretation, application, breach, termination or validity thereof, including any claim of inducement of this Agreement by fraud or otherwise (“Dispute”) will be resolved exclusively pursuant to the procedures set forth in this Section 11.11.

(b) Arbitration. The parties mutually desire that friendly collaboration will develop between them. Either party may give written notice of a Dispute (the “Notice”) to the other, upon receipt of which the parties agree to undertake a good faith effort to resolve the Dispute on mutually acceptable terms. If the parties are unable to agree to resolve a Dispute within 30 days of receipt of the Notice (or within such different period to which the parties agree in writing), either party may seek binding arbitration of the Dispute (“Arbitration”) pursuant to the procedures set forth below.

(i) The Dispute will be submitted for binding resolution by arbitration pursuant to the International Arbitration Rules of the International Chamber of Commerce (the “Rules”) in effect at the time of commencement of the Arbitration, except to the extent that the Rules conflict with the provisions hereof, in which case the provisions hereof control. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any provision in the Rules, in no event will either party be entitled to seek, nor will the Arbitration Tribunal (as defined herein) be permitted to render an Award which includes, any form of equitable relief.

(ii) Either party may commence the Arbitration by submitting a notice of arbitration pursuant to the Rules.

(iii) The Arbitration will be conducted by an arbitral tribunal (the “Arbitral Tribunal”) consisting of three arbitrators. Each Party will appoint one arbitrator. The two arbitrators so appointed will attempt to agree upon the third arbitrator (who will act as Chair of the Arbitral Tribunal for administrative purposes only). In the event that two party-nominated arbitrators will fail to agree upon a third, or in the event that either party fails to nominate an arbitrator, such arbitrator will be appointed pursuant to the Rules.

(iv) The Arbitration will be conducted in the English language. The Arbitration will be conducted in San Francisco, California if it is commenced by the Securityholders or the Company, and will be conducted in Hong Kong if it is commenced by the Purchaser.

(v) The Arbitral Tribunal will render a written award (“Award”) in English stating the relief granted and supported by a written opinion setting forth findings of fact and conclusions of law.

(i) The Award will not be subject to further review, except pursuant to applicable Laws, and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction having jurisdiction over the parties or over property belonging to a party upon which the Award may be executed pursuant to the law of the place where such property is situated.

(ii) The Award may be used in a court of law only for the purpose of enforcing the Award. In no event will the Award involve any form of equitable relief.

(d) The parties agree that the United Nations Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards applies to this Section 11.11.

(e) TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW THEN IN EFFECT, EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL OF ANY ISSUE BY JURY.

(f) EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED OTHERWISE IN THIS AGREEMENT EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES ANY CLAIM FOR ATTORNEYS’ FEES, COSTS OR PREJUDGMENT INTEREST FROM THE OTHER.

11.12 Limitation of Liabilities. IN NO EVENT WILL ANY PARTY WHICH IS A SIGNATORY TO THIS AGREEMENT BE LIABLE TO ANY PARTY OR OTHER PERSON FOR ANY LOST PROFITS, OTHER CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, COLLATERAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH PARTY WILL BE ADVISED, WILL HAVE OTHER REASON TO KNOW, OR IN FACT WILL KNOW OF THE POSSIBILITY OF THE FOREGOING UNLESS, SOLELY WITH RESPECT TO CONSEQUENTIAL OR SPECIAL (TO THE EXTENT THAT SUCH DAMAGES ARE DEEMED TO BE CONSEQUENTIAL), ANY SUCH DAMAGES ARE PART OF A JUDGMENT IN CONNECTION WITH A CLAIM OF A THIRD PERSON AGAINST AN INDEMNIFIED PARTY.

11.13 Counterparts. The parties may execute this Agreement in multiple counterparts, each of which constitutes an original as against the party that signed it, and all of which together constitute one agreement. This Agreement is effective upon delivery of one executed counterpart from each party to the other parties. The signatures of all parties need not appear on the same counterpart. The delivery of signed counterparts by facsimile or email transmission that includes a copy of the sending party’s signature is as effective as signing and delivering the counterpart in person.

11.14 Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each party will bear its respective direct and indirect expenses incurred in connection with the preparation and negotiation of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including all fees and expenses of its advisors and representatives. If this Agreement is terminated, the obligation of each party to pay its own expenses will be subject to any rights of such party arising from any breach of this Agreement by another party.

11.15 Construction. Any reference in this Agreement to an “Article,” “Section,” “Exhibit” or “Schedule” refers to the corresponding Article, Section, Exhibit or Schedule of or to this Agreement, unless the context indicates otherwise. The table of contents and the headings of Articles and Sections are provided for convenience only and are not intended to affect the construction or interpretation of this Agreement. All words used in this Agreement should be construed to be of such gender or number as the circumstances require. The term “including” means “including without limitation” and is intended by way of example and not limitation. Any reference to a statute is deemed also to refer to any amendments or successor legislation, and all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, as in effect at the relevant time. Any reference to a Contract or other document as of a given date means the Contract or other document as amended, supplemented and modified from time to time through such date.
