4.03. Tax Matters.

(a) The Stockholders shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Returns of the Company which are due on or before the Closing Date and shall cause the Company to timely pay all Taxes shown as due on such Returns. The Stockholders shall prepare and file, at their own expense, income or franchise Tax Returns of the Company for the period ending on the Closing Date. All such Returns shall be prepared in accordance with past practices, except as required by applicable Law. The Stockholders shall permit Higher One to review and comment on each income or franchise Tax Return of the Company for a period of 10 business days prior to the filing date of such Return.

(b) Higher One shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Returns of the Company due after the Closing Date including any Tax Return for a Straddle Period (as defined below), other than all income or franchise Tax Returns of the Company for the period ending on the Closing Date, which shall be prepared and filed by the Stockholders pursuant to Section 4.03(a). With respect to any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”), the Taxes attributable to such Straddle Period shall be apportioned between the portion of the Straddle Period that begins on the first day of the Straddle Period and ends on the Closing Date (the “Pre-Closing Straddle Period”), which portion shall be the responsibility of Stockholders, and the portion of the Straddle Period that begins on the day immediately following the Closing Date and ends on the last day of the Straddle Period (“Post-Closing Straddle Period”), which portion shall be the responsibility of Higher One. In the case of income Taxes, sales and use Taxes, and Taxes based on gross or net receipts or payments, the

portion of the Tax allocated to the Pre-Closing Straddle Period shall equal the amount that would be payable if the Straddle Period ended on the last day of the Pre-Closing Straddle Period by means of closing of the books and records of the Company as of the last day of the Pre-Closing Straddle Period, provided that all permitted allowances, exemptions and deductions that are normally computed on the basis of an entire year or period (such as depreciation and amortization deductions) shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be allocated between the Pre-Closing Straddle Period and the Post-Closing Straddle Period in proportion to the number of days in each such period. In the case of Taxes not described in the immediately preceding sentence, the portion of the Tax allocated to the Pre-Closing Straddle Period shall equal the amount of Tax for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by the ratio of the number of days during the Pre-Closing Straddle Period to the number of days during the entire Straddle Period. The portion of the Tax allocated to the Post-Closing Straddle Period shall equal the balance of the Tax attributable to the Straddle Period. With respect to any Tax Return required to be filed by Higher One for a Straddle Period, Higher One shall deliver, at least 30 days prior to the due date for the filing of such Tax Return (taking into account extensions), to the Stockholders , a statement setting forth the amount of Tax for which the Stockholders are responsible. The Stockholders shall have the right to review such Tax Return and statement prior to the filing of such Tax Return. The Stockholders, on the one hand, and Higher One, on the other hand, agree to consult and resolve in good faith any issue arising as a result of the Stockholders review of such Tax Return and mutually to consent to the filing of such Tax Return as promptly as possible. Promptly upon Higher One’s delivery of demand for reimbursement to Stockholders, Stockholders shall reimburse Higher One or the Company for all Taxes of the Company (after taking into account all available net operating losses and tax attributes applicable to the calculation of Taxes in accordance with Law and this Section 4.03(b)) for periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date, including any Tax resulting from the distribution of the Healthcare Business to the Stockholders, and for all Pre-closing Straddle Period Taxes (“Pre-Closing Taxes”); provided, however, that the Stockholders shall not be liable for any Pre-Closing Taxes reflected as a liability on the Latest Balance Sheet. For purposes of determining the Pre-Closing Taxes attributable to the distribution of the Healthcare Business, the fair market value of the Healthcare Business shall be based on a reasonable valuation prepared by ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇, LLP, unless otherwise determined by a Governmental Entity.

(c) After the Closing Date, Higher One shall not have the right to amend, modify or otherwise change any Returns of the Company for any Pre-Closing or Straddle Periods (other than any amendment, modification or change necessary in order to comply with Law or to correct any inaccurate statement of fact), unless the Stockholders have consented in writing to such amendment, modification or change, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(d) The Stockholders, the Company and Higher One shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the preparation and filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Section 4.03 and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include signing any Tax Returns, amended Tax Returns, claims or other documents necessary to settle any Tax controversy, 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 and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereby.

(e) The Stockholders shall control the conduct of any Tax proceeding for which the Stockholders may have liability for Taxes under Section 5.02. Higher One shall have the right to participate in any Tax proceeding related to Pre-Closing Taxes of the Company which may have the effect of increasing Higher One’s or the Company’s Tax liability for any post-Closing Tax, and the Stockholders shall not settle or compromise any such proceeding without Higher One’s prior written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.

(f) Higher One and the Stockholders further agree, upon request from the other party, to use their commercially reasonable best efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental Entity or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including, but not limited to, with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby).

(g) Without the prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) of Higher One, neither the Company nor any of the Stockholders shall make or change any election, change an annual accounting period, file any amended Tax Return, enter into any closing agreement, settle any Tax claim or assessment relating to the Company, surrender any right to claim a refund of Taxes, or take any other similar action, or omit to take any action relating to the filing of any Tax Return or the payment of any Tax, if such action or omission would have the effect of increasing the present or future Tax liability or decreasing any present or future Tax asset of the Company, Higher One or any Affiliate of Higher One. The Stockholders shall notify Higher One of any consent to any extension or waiver of the limitation period applicable to any Tax claim or assessment relating to the Company within 15 days of making such consent or waiver.

(h) Without the prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) of the Stockholders, neither the Company nor Higher One shall make or change any election, change an annual accounting period, file any amended Tax Return, enter into any closing agreement, settle any Tax claim or assessment relating to the Company, surrender any right to claim a refund of Taxes, or take any other similar action, or omit to take any action relating to the filing of any Tax Return or the payment of any Tax except as required by Law, if such action or omission would have the effect of increasing the present or future Tax liability of the Stockholders. Any refund of Taxes attributed to any Pre-Closing Period or Pre-Closing Straddle Period that is not reflected as an amount on the Latest Balance Sheet shall be for the account of the Stockholders.

(i) All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with the transfer of Shares pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid, when due, by the party responsible for such Taxes and the responsible party shall, at their own expense, file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other Taxes and fees.

4.04. Investigation by the Stockholders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (a) no investigation by the Stockholders shall affect the representations and warranties of

Higher One under this Agreement or contained in any other writing to be furnished to the Stockholders in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and (b) such representations and warranties shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of the fact that the Stockholders knew or should have known that any of the same is or might be inaccurate in any respect.

Each Eligible Employee shall, to the extent permitted by law and applicable tax qualification requirements, and subject to any generally applicable break in service or similar rule, receive credit for purposes of eligibility to participate and vesting under the Higher One benefit plans for years of service with the Company or its subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time.

(vi) The consummation of a transaction pursuant to which: (i) any “person” or “group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act), becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of Higher One having the right to vote for the election of members of its board of directors, (ii) any reorganization, merger or consolidation of Higher One, other than a transaction or series of related transactions in which the holders of the voting securities of Higher One outstanding immediately prior to such transaction or series of related transactions retain, immediately after such transaction or series of related transactions, at least a majority of the total voting power represented by the outstanding voting securities of Higher One or such other surviving or resulting entity or (iii) a sale, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of Higher One;

(vii) Higher One shall consummate (i) an initial public offering of its common stock or (ii) a private offering of debt or equity securities with gross proceeds to Higher One in excess of $75,000,000;

(viii) Higher One shall incur or allow to be outstanding indebtedness for borrowed money in an aggregate principal amount in excess of $75,000,000 (provided that the Post-Closing Payments shall not be considered indebtedness for borrowed money);

ARTICLE V.

SURVIVAL; INDEMNIFICATION

5.01. Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants.

(a) Notwithstanding any investigation made by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto or the results of any such investigation and notwithstanding the participation of such party in the Closing, the representations and warranties contained in Article II and Article III hereof, and the indemnification obligations of the parties with respect thereto, shall survive the Closing until June 30, 2011, subject to the terms and conditions of this Article V. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the representations and warranties contained in Sections 2.01 (Incorporation and Corporate Power), 2.02 (Execution, Delivery; Valid and Binding Agreements), 2.06 (Capital Stock), 2.14 (Tax Matters), 2,18(a), 2.18(c), 2.18(d), 2.19 (Employee Benefits Plans) and 2.26 (Brokerage), and the indemnification obligations of the Stockholders with respect thereto, and the representations and warranties contained in Sections 3.01 (Incorporation and Corporate Power) and 3.02 (Execution, Delivery; Valid and Binding Agreements), and the indemnification obligations of Higher One with respect thereto, shall survive the Closing for a period of three (3) months after the expiration of the applicable statutes of limitations governing the respective matters set forth therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any representation or warranty, and the indemnification obligations with respect thereto, that would otherwise terminate in accordance with this Section 5.01 shall continue to survive, if notice of a reasonably specific claim shall have been timely given under Section 5.04 in good faith on or prior to such termination date, until such claim has been satisfied or otherwise resolved as provided in this Article V.

(b) Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, (i) each of the covenants set forth in Section 4.03 of this Agreement, and the indemnification obligations of the parties thereto, shall survive the Closing indefinitely, and (ii) each of the other covenants set forth in this Agreement, and the indemnification obligations of the parties with respect thereto, shall survive the Closing until June 30, 2011.

5.02. Indemnification by the Stockholders. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Article V and except as set forth in this Section 5.02, the Stockholders shall jointly and severally indemnify Higher One, the Company, and each of their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, Service Providers, agents and stockholders (collectively, the “Higher One Indemnified Parties”) and hold them harmless against any claim, loss, liability, deficiency, damage, amount paid in settlement, expense or cost (including reasonable costs of investigation, defense and legal fees and expenses) (collectively, “Losses”), whether or not actually incurred or paid prior to the expiration of the indemnification obligation of the Stockholders hereunder, so long as a Higher One Indemnified Party has in good faith made a claim for indemnification in accordance with Section 5.04 prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period under Section 5.01, which the Higher One Indemnified Parties may suffer, sustain or become subject to, as a result of any the following:

(a) any misrepresentation in any of the representations or any breach of the warranties of the Stockholders contained in Article II of this Agreement, the Stockholder Disclosure Schedule or any closing certificate delivered by the Stockholders or the Company pursuant to this Agreement (solely for purposes of determining the amount of any Losses no effect will be given to any qualifications as to materiality, Material Adverse Effect or similar qualifications contained in such representations and warranties);

(b) any breach of, or failure to perform, any agreement or covenant of the Stockholders contained in this Agreement;

(c) any Pre-Closing Taxes not reflected on the Latest Balance Sheet and/or the failure of the Company to be properly registered as a business entity in any U.S. taxing jurisdiction in which it was required by Law to be registered as of or prior to the Closing;

(d) the Healthcare Business Transfer or the conduct of the Healthcare Business prior to the Closing; or

(e) any items listed on Schedule 5.02(e) attached hereto.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Stockholders shall severally (in proportion to the number of Shares sold by each) and not jointly indemnify the Higher One Indemnified Parties (i) to the extent the Higher One Indemnified Parties are entitled pursuant to Article V to an amount of indemnification in excess of the Cap, for any such Losses in excess of the Cap, and (ii) for any Losses pursuant to Section 5.02(a) to the extent such Losses relate to any misrepresentation in any of the representations or any breach of the warranties of the Stockholders contained in Sections 2.02 and 2.03, in which case the Stockholder giving any such misrepresentation or responsible for any such breach shall be liable for such Losses. For the avoidance of doubt, the Stockholders shall have no liability related to the effect of the Closing on the availability of the Company’s net operating losses for any taxable period (or portion thereof) commencing on or after the Closing.

5.03. Indemnification by Higher One. Subject to the terms of this Article V, Higher One shall indemnify in full the Stockholders and their Affiliates (collectively the “Stockholders Indemnified Parties”), and hold them harmless against any Losses, whether or not actually incurred or paid prior to the expiration of the indemnification obligation of Higher One hereby, so long as the Stockholders have in good faith made a claim for indemnification in accordance with Section 5.04 prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period under Section 5.01, which the Stockholders Indemnified Parties may suffer, sustain or become subject to as a result of any of the following:

(a) any misrepresentation in any of the representations or any breach of the warranties of Higher One contained in Article III of this Agreement, the Buyer Disclosure Schedule or any closing certificate delivered by Higher One pursuant to this Agreement, solely for purposes of determining the amount of any Losses no effect will be given to any qualifications as to materiality or similar qualifications contained in such representations and warranties; and

(b) any breach of, or failure to perform, any agreement or covenant of Higher One contained in this Agreement.

5.04. Method of Asserting Claims. As used herein, an “Indemnified Party” shall refer to a Higher One Indemnified Party or a Stockholder Indemnified Party, as applicable, the “Notifying Party” shall refer to the party hereto who is or whose Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification hereby, and the “Indemnifying Party” shall refer to the party hereto obligated to indemnify such Notifying Party or Notifying Party’s Indemnified Parties.

(a) In the event that any of the Indemnified Parties is made a defendant in or party to any action or proceeding (including, without limitation, any audit, action or proceeding relating to Taxes), judicial or administrative, instituted by any third party for which the liability or the costs or expenses are Losses reasonably likely to result in an indemnification claim pursuant to this Article V (any such third party action or proceeding being referred to as a “Third Party Claim”), the Notifying Party shall give the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice thereof by delivery of a Certificate (as defined below). For purposes hereof, a “Certificate” shall mean a certificate signed by the Indemnified Party: (i) stating that an Indemnified Party has paid or incurred, or is reasonably likely to have to pay or incur Losses, and (ii) specifying in reasonable detail the Losses included in the amount so stated, the date each such Losses were paid or incurred, or the basis for such anticipated liability, and, if applicable, the nature of the specific misrepresentation, breach of warranty or covenant to which each such Losses are related. The failure to give such notice shall not affect any Indemnified Party’s ability to seek reimbursement unless, and only to the extent that, such failure has materially and adversely affected the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend successfully a Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to contest and defend such Third Party Claim, provided that the Indemnifying Party (i) has a reasonable basis for concluding that such defense may be successful and (ii) diligently contests and defends such Third Party Claim. Notice of the intention so to contest and defend shall be given by the Indemnifying Party to the Notifying Party within 20 business days after receipt of the Certificate from the Notifying Party (but, in any event, at least five business days prior to the date that an answer to such Third Party Claim is due to be filed). Reputable attorneys reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party employed by the Indemnifying Party shall conduct such contest and defense. The Notifying Party shall be entitled at any time, at its own cost and expense (which expense shall not constitute a Loss unless the Notifying Party reasonably determines that the Indemnifying Party is not adequately representing or, because of a conflict of interest, may not adequately represent, any interests of the Indemnified Parties with respect to a Third Party Claim, and only to the extent that such expenses are reasonable), to participate in such contest and defense and to be represented by attorneys of its or their own choosing. If the Notifying Party elects to participate in such defense, the Notifying Party will cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the conduct of such defense. Neither the Notifying Party nor the Indemnifying Party may concede, settle or compromise any Third Party Claim without the consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (x) a Third Party Claim seeks relief other than the payment of monetary damages, (y) the subject matter of a Third Party Claim relates to the ongoing business of the Indemnified Party, which Third Party Claim, if decided against the Indemnified Party, would adversely affect the ongoing business or reputation of the Indemnified Party or (z) the Indemnified Party would not be fully indemnified with respect to such Third Party Claim, then, in each such case, the Indemnified Party alone shall be entitled to contest, defend and settle such Third Party Claim in the first instance and, if the Indemnified Party does not contest, defend or settle such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall then have the right to contest and defend (but not settle) such Third Party Claim and shall fully indemnify the Indemnified Party for all Losses resulting from such Third Party Claim subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement.

(b) In the event any Indemnified Party has a claim (a “Claim”) against any Indemnifying Party that does not involve, or no longer involves, a Third Party Claim, the Notifying Party shall deliver a Certificate describing such claim with reasonable promptness to the Escrow Agent and the Indemnifying Party. Any disputes in connection with a Claim shall be resolved in accordance with Sections 5.10 and 5.11.

5.05. Limitations on Indemnification.

(a) The Stockholders shall not be liable to any of the Higher One Indemnified Parties in respect of any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 5.02(a) made hereby until the aggregate amount of Losses for which all Higher One Indemnified Parties otherwise would be entitled to indemnification under Section 5.02(a), as applicable, exceeds $200,000 (the “Basket”), in which case the Stockholders shall be liable to the Higher One Indemnified Parties hereby for the aggregate amount of all such Losses (and not just the Losses in excess of the Basket) as determined by the provisions of this Article V.

(b) Higher One shall not be liable to any of the Stockholder Indemnified Parties in respect of any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 5.03(a) made hereby until the aggregate amount of Losses for which the Stockholder Indemnified Parties otherwise would be entitled to indemnification under this Article V exceeds the Basket, in which case Higher One shall be liable to the Stockholder Indemnified Parties hereby for all such Losses (and not just the Losses in excess of the Basket) as determined by the provisions of this Article V.

(c) Neither the maximum, aggregate and joint obligation of the Stockholders to indemnify the Higher One Indemnified Parties from and against Losses resulting from, arising out of or caused by breaches and inaccuracies of representations or warranties pursuant to Section 5.02 of this Agreement, nor the maximum, aggregate obligation of Higher One to indemnify the Stockholder Indemnified Parties from and against Losses resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by breaches and inaccuracies of representations or warranties pursuant to Section 5.03 of this Agreement, shall exceed the sum of $4,500,000 (the “Cap“).

(d) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the limitations set forth in subclauses (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 5.05 shall not apply to (i) breaches of the representations and warranties contained in Sections 2.01, 2.02, 2.03, 2.06, 2.14, 3.01 and 3.02, (ii) Losses by reason of any claims brought on the basis of fraudulent or willful misconduct or intentional misrepresentation, or (iii) any indemnity obligations set forth in Sections 5.02(b), 5.02(c), 5.02(d), 5.02(e) and/or 5.03(b); provided, however, each Stockholder shall not be obligated to indemnify the Higher One Indemnified Parties for any amounts in excess in the aggregate of such Stockholder’s pro rata share of the Purchase Price actually received by such Stockholder.

5.06. Sources of Indemnification. Following the Closing, in the event that any Higher One Indemnified Party has a claim for indemnification against the Stockholders pursuant to this Article V, such Higher One Indemnified Party shall first seek to recover the amount of such claim and/or payment from the Escrow Fund prior to seeking indemnification from a Stockholder individually (either directly or through its right of offset under Section 5.09); provided, however, that to the extent the amount of such claim and/or payment exceeds the then-remaining Escrow Fund, the Higher One Indemnified Party shall seek to recover such amount solely from the Stockholders in accordance with this Article V. The Escrow Agent shall distribute the Escrow Fund to the Stockholders in accordance with and the terms of the Escrow Agreement.

5.07. Tax and Insurance Benefits. The parties shall make appropriate adjustments for (i) any tax benefits or costs realized, (ii) any insurance benefits actually realized by the Indemnified Party, (iii) any recoveries actually received by the Indemnified Person from third parties pursuant to indemnification or otherwise with respect thereto (net of cost of recovery) and (iv) any resultant increase in insurance premiums of the Indemnified Party in determining Losses for purposes of this Article V. In the event an Indemnifying Party pays for an Indemnified Party’s Losses pursuant to this Article V, such Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to the rights the Indemnified Party has against any insurer or other third party with respect thereto (and, upon the reasonable request of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall take appropriate actions necessary to transfer and assign such rights to the Indemnifying Party).

5.08. Escrow Amount. In order to secure the Stockholders’ indemnity obligations to Higher One under this Agreement, the Escrow Amount shall be deposited by wire transfer into an account designated by Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 1.02(ii)(F) to be held in escrow pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement and hereof.

5.09. Right of Offset. In the event Higher One reasonably believes in good faith that it is entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 5.02 and all of the Initial Post-Closing Payments have not been made, Higher One may deposit such claimed amount as set forth in the corresponding Certificate (the “Claimed Amount”), up to a maximum amount that shall not exceed the Cap, with the Escrow Agent instead of making a required Initial Post-Closing Payment; provided, however, that (i) Higher One shall comply with all provisions of Section 5.04, including but not limited to delivery of a Certificate to the Escrow Agent and the Stockholders, (ii) Higher One shall give written notice to the Stockholders, at least 5 business days prior to the date such Initial Post-Closing Payment is due, of its intention to deposit a Claimed Amount, and the amount thereof, and (iii) the Claimed Amount must be deposited with the Escrow Agent prior to the due date of such Initial Post-Closing Payment. In the event that Higher One deposits any amounts with the Escrow Agent pursuant to Section 4.08 or this Section 5.09 (any such deposits, collectively, the “Early Escrow Deposits”), and the aggregate amount of the Early Escrow Deposits as of December 31, 2010 is greater than the amount that Higher One would be entitled to deposit with the Escrow Agent pursuant to Section 1.02(ii)(F) (the “Escrow Cap”), then Higher One and the Stockholders shall, promptly following December 31, 2010, issue joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent authorizing the delivery to the Stockholders of cash from the Escrow Fund equal to the amount in the Escrow Fund in excess of the Escrow Cap. Any disputes in connection with this Section 5.09 shall be resolved in accordance with Sections 5.10 and 5.11.

5.10. Objections to Claims Against the Escrow Fund. At the time of delivery of a Certificate to the Escrow Agent, a duplicate copy of such certificate shall be delivered to the Stockholders, and for a period of 30 days after such delivery, the Escrow Agent shall make no delivery to Higher One of any

Escrow Amount unless the Escrow Agent shall have received written authorization from the Stockholders to make such delivery. After the expiration of such 30 day period, the Escrow Agent shall make delivery of cash from the Escrow Fund equal to the amount of Losses claimed in the Certificate; provided that no such payment or delivery may be made if the Stockholders shall object in a written statement to the claim made in the Certificate (an “Objection Notice”), and such Objection Notice shall have been delivered to the Escrow Agent prior to the expiration of such 30 day period. Any such disputes shall be resolved in accordance with Section 5.11. Neither the exercise of, nor the failure to exercise, such right of offset shall constitute an election of remedies or limit Higher One in any manner in the enforcement of any other remedies that may be available to it hereby.

5.11. Resolution of Conflicts; Arbitration.

(a) In the event a dispute arises from any provision in this Article V, the Stockholders and Higher One shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims. If the Stockholders and Higher One should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both parties and shall be furnished to the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on any such memorandum and make distributions from the Escrow Fund in accordance with the terms thereof.

(b) If the amount in dispute is less than $2,500,000 and no such agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation and prior to 30 days after delivery of an Objection Notice, either Higher One or the Stockholders may demand arbitration of the matter and in such event the matter shall be settled by arbitration conducted by one neutral arbitrator mutually agreeable to Higher One and the Stockholders. In the event that, within 30 days after submission of any dispute to arbitration, Higher One and the Stockholders cannot mutually agree on one arbitrator, then, within 15 days after the end of such 30 day period, Higher One and the Stockholders shall each select one arbitrator. The two arbitrators so selected shall select a third neutral arbitrator. If either Higher One or the Stockholders fails to select an arbitrator during this 15 day period, then the parties agree that the arbitration will be conducted by one arbitrator selected by the other party. If the amount in dispute is at least $2,500,000 and no such agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation and prior to 30 days after delivery of an Objection Notice, either Higher One or the Stockholders may proceed to litigation.

(c) Any such arbitration shall be held in Delaware, unless otherwise agreed to by the parties, under the rules then in effect of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitrator(s) shall determine how all expenses relating to the arbitration shall be paid, including the respective expenses of each party, the fees of each arbitrator and the administrative fee of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitrator or arbitrators, as the case may be, shall set a limited time period and establish procedures designed to reduce the cost and time for discovery while allowing the parties an opportunity, adequate in the sole judgment of the arbitrator or majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, to discover relevant information from the opposing parties about the subject matter of the dispute. The arbitrator, or a majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, shall rule upon motions to compel or limit discovery and shall have the authority to impose sanctions, including attorneys’ fees and costs, to the same extent as a competent court of law or equity, should the arbitrator or a majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, determine that discovery was sought without substantial justification or that discovery was refused or objected to without substantial justification. The decision of the arbitrator or a majority

of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, as to the validity and amount of any claim in such Certificate shall be final, binding, and conclusive upon the parties to this Agreement. Such decision shall be written and shall be supported by written findings of fact and conclusions which shall set forth the award, judgment, decree or order awarded by the arbitrator(s), and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on, and make distributions from the Escrow Fund in accordance with, the terms of such award, judgment, decree or order as applicable. Within 30 days of a decision of the arbitrator(s) requiring payment by one party to another, such party shall make the payment to such other party, including any distributions out of the Escrow Fund, as applicable.

(d) Judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The forgoing arbitration provision shall apply to any dispute among the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Parties under this Article V hereof relating to claims upon the Escrow Fund.

5.12. Remedies. The sole and exclusive remedies of the parties hereto with respect to this Agreement shall be as provided for in this Article V, except with respect to a claim brought on the basis of fraud, willful misconduct or intentional misrepresentation. For the sake of clarity, the limitations set forth in this Section 5.12 shall in no way limit the remedies available to any Person under the Transaction Documents other than this Agreement.

5.13. Purchase Price Adjustment. Unless otherwise specifically provided for in this Agreement, any indemnity payments made pursuant to Article V shall be treated for Tax purposes as an adjustment to the Purchase Price to the maximum extent permitted under the Code (or other applicable Tax Law).
