(a) The consummation of the Transaction assumes that Net Working Capital as of 11:59 p.m. (New York time) on the Closing Date will be between $12,375,000 and $13,125,000. The Purchase Price shall be adjusted upward or downward, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, by the amount that the Final Net Working Capital Amount is greater than $13,125,000 or less than $12,375,000.

(b) Not later than 45 days following the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and submit to Seller a balance sheet of the Acquired Companies as of the Closing Date and a statement setting forth, in reasonable detail, the calculation of the Net Working Capital as of 11:59 p.m. (New York time) on the Closing Date (the “Proposed Final Net Working Capital Amount”). In the event that Seller disputes the correctness of the Proposed Final Net Working Capital Amount, Seller shall notify Buyer in writing of its objections within 20 days after receipt of the statement setting forth the calculation of the Proposed Final Net Working Capital Amount and shall set forth, in writing and in reasonable detail, each of the reasons for Seller’s objections, it being understood that if Seller does not dispute a component of the Proposed Final Net Working Capital Amount in its notice of objection, then that component will be final and binding on the Parties. If Seller fails to deliver such notice of objections within such 20 Business Day period, then Seller shall be deemed to have accepted the statement setting forth the calculation of the Proposed Final Net Working Capital Amount. Buyer and Seller shall endeavor in good faith to resolve any disputed matters within 20 days after Buyer’s receipt of Seller’s notice of objections. If Buyer and Seller are unable to so resolve the disputed matters, Buyer and Seller shall select a nationally known independent accounting firm reasonably acceptable to each Party (which firm shall not then be providing any material services to Buyer, either of the Acquired Companies, Seller or any of their respective Affiliates) (the “Working Capital Independent Accountant”) to resolve the matters in dispute (in a manner consistent with Schedule 2.3(a)) and

the determination of the Working Capital Independent Accountant in respect of the correctness of each matter remaining in dispute shall be conclusive and binding on Buyer and Seller. The Net Working Capital of the Acquired Companies as of 11:59 p.m. (New York time) on the Closing Date, as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.3(b) (whether by failure of Seller to deliver notice of objection, by agreement of Buyer and Seller or by determination of the Working Capital Independent Accountant), is referred to herein as the “Final Net Working Capital Amount.” The Parties agree that in determining the Final Net Working Capital Amount, there will be no changes to accounting methods, policies, principles, practices, procedures, classifications, estimation methodologies or reserves used by the Acquired Companies as of the Closing Date.

(c) Subject to any applicable privileges (including the attorney-client privilege and the work product privilege), Seller shall make available to Buyer and, upon request, to the Working Capital Independent Accountant, the books, records, documents and work papers underlying the preparation of the statement setting forth the Proposed Final Net Working Capital Amount. Subject to any applicable privileges (including the attorney-client privilege and the work product privilege), Buyer shall make available to Seller and, upon request, to the Working Capital Independent Accountant, the books, records, documents and work papers created or prepared by or for Buyer or either of the Acquired Companies in connection with its calculation of the Proposed Final Net Working Capital Amount.

(d) If the Final Net Working Capital Amount is less than $12,375,000, the amount of the deficiency shall be paid by Seller to Buyer by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Buyer within 10 Business Days of the date on which the Final Net Working Capital Amount is finally determined. If the Final Net Working Capital Amount is greater than $13,125,000, the amount of the excess shall be paid by Buyer to Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Seller within 10 Business Days of the date on which the Final Net Working Capital Amount is finally determined.

(e) If, as finally determined by the Working Capital Independent Accountant, all of the matters in dispute shall be resolved in favor of Buyer, then Seller shall pay all fees and expenses of the Working Capital Independent Accountant. If, as finally determined by the Working Capital Independent Accountant, all of the matters in dispute shall be resolved in favor of Seller, then Buyer shall pay all fees and expenses of the Working Capital Independent Accountant. If, as finally determined by the Working Capital Independent Accountant, the matters in dispute shall be resolved partially in favor of Seller and partially in favor of Buyer, then Buyer and Seller shall each pay one-half (1/2) of the fees and expenses of the Working Capital Independent Accountant.

otherwise determined by Seller in its sole discretion) all inter-company accounts, whether payables or receivables, between Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Acquired Companies), on the one hand, and the Acquired Companies, on the other hand.

(c) Notwithstanding anything contained herein, all Contracts and accounts, whether payables or receivables, between the Acquired Companies, on the one hand, and any Person other than Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Acquired Companies), on the other hand, as of the Closing, shall remain in place in accordance with their applicable terms.

Section 5.10 Termination of Certain Support Services.

(a) Following the Closing, Buyer shall, and shall cause the Acquired Companies to, as soon as practicable but in no event later than 60 days following the Closing Date, cease to (i) make any use of any names (including internet domain names) and Trademarks that include (A) the term “Aeroflex” or “Cobham” or any names or Trademarks confusingly similar thereto, or likely to be confusingly similar thereto, or dilutive thereof (collectively the “Similar Marks”); and (ii) hold themselves out as having any affiliation or association with Seller or any of its current or former Affiliates (other than the Acquired Companies). In furtherance thereof, as soon as practicable but in no event later than 60 days following the Closing Date, Buyer shall cause the Acquired Companies to remove, strike over or otherwise obliterate all Similar Marks from all assets and other materials used or owned by the Acquired Companies, including any vehicles, business cards, schedules, stationery, packaging materials, promotional materials, manuals, forms, websites, email, computer software and other materials and systems.

Section 5.12 Tax Matters.

(a) Liabilities for Taxes.

(i)

Seller shall be liable for, pay (or caused to be paid) and indemnify and hold harmless the Buyer Indemnified Parties from and against (A) all Taxes imposed on the Acquired Companies for any Pre-Closing Tax Period, and with respect to any Straddle Period the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date, in the manner described in Section 5.12(a)(iii); (B) Taxes arising from the breach of any representation in Section 3.9; (C) Taxes of any Person attributable to any taxable period for which the Acquired Companies are held liable under Section 1.1502-6 of the Treasury Regulations (or any similar provision of state, local or foreign Law) by reason of the Acquired Companies being (or having been or ceasing to be) included in any consolidated, affiliated, combined, aggregate or unitary group (“Company Group”) at any time before the Closing Date; or (D) any Taxes imposed in connection with (a) the Acquired Companies ceasing to be a member of any Company Group; (b) any transaction on or prior to the consummation of the Closing or contemplated by this Agreement between the Acquired Company and any member of any Company Group; or (c) the termination on or prior to the consummation of the Closing of any Indebtedness of the Acquired Companies to any member of any Company Group. For the avoidance of doubt, any Taxes arising from a transaction, other than any transaction contemplated by this Agreement, that is initiated by Buyer or any of its Affiliates with respect to the Acquired Companies on the Closing Date but after the Closing shall be treated as having arisen during the Post-Closing Tax Period for purposes of this Section 5.12(a).

(ii)

Other than with respect to Taxes described in Section 5.12(a)(i), Buyer shall be liable for, pay and indemnify and hold the Seller Indemnified Parties harmless from and against (A) all Taxes imposed on the Acquired Companies for any Post-Closing Tax Period and, with respect to any Straddle Period, the portion of such Straddle Period beginning on the day after the Closing Date, in the manner described in Section 5.12(a)(iii); and (B) any Transfer Taxes.

(iii)

For purposes of this Section 5.12(a), to the extent permitted or required by Law, the taxable year of the Acquired Companies that includes the Closing Date shall be terminated on the Closing Date. Whenever it is necessary to determine the liability for Taxes that are payable with respect to a Straddle Period, the amount of any such Taxes that is allocable to the portion of such period ending on the Closing Date shall be:

(1) In the case of Taxes that are either (x) based upon or related to income or receipts or (y) imposed in connection with any sale or other transfer or assignment of property (real or personal, tangible or intangible), deemed equal to the amount that would be payable if the taxable year ended on the Closing Date; and

(2) In the case of Taxes imposed on a periodic basis, deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire relevant Straddle Period.

(b) Section 338 Election.

(i)

Seller and Buyer will make a joint election under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code, and, at the request of Buyer, any corresponding elections under state, local or foreign Tax Law, with respect to the purchase and sale of the Stock under this Agreement. Seller will allocate the “aggregate deemed sales price” as computed under applicable Treasury Regulations among the Acquired Companies’ assets in accordance with Section 5.12(b)(iii). Seller and Buyer agree to take all actions necessary or appropriate, including properly completing and executing IRS Form 8023, to make the election under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code and (if requested by Buyer) and comparable applicable state Law for the Acquired Companies.

(ii)

Buyer will have the initial responsibility for the timely preparation of IRS Form 8023, and the comparable form under applicable state, local or foreign Law, and all supporting statements, schedules, and required information applicable thereto. Such Form 8023, comparable state, local or foreign forms, statements, schedules and information (the “Form 8023 Package”) will be submitted to Seller for its review no later than 45 days after the Closing Date. Within 30 days after Seller receives the Form 8023 Package, Seller will notify Buyer of any objections or proposed changes. If Seller has no objections or proposed changes or if Seller and the Buyer agree on the resolution of all objections or proposed changes, Seller and Buyer will promptly file the Form 8023 and the relevant attachments with the IRS via certified mail with return receipt requested. As soon as practicable thereafter, Seller and Buyer will furnish to each other a photocopy of such certificate of mailing and return receipt. If Buyer and Seller fail to agree with respect to any objection or proposed change within 20 days after Buyer receives notice of objection from Seller, then any disputed objection(s) or proposed change(s) will be submitted for resolution to a national accounting firm reasonably acceptable to each Party, which will report its final determination to Buyer and Seller within 30 days thereafter, and such accountants’ determination as to the appropriateness and extent of changes (if any) to the Form 8023 Package will be final and binding. The costs of such accountants’ determination will be borne equally by Buyer and Seller. Within three days after such determination, Buyer and Seller will file the Form 8023 and the relevant

attachments with the IRS in accordance with the procedure described above. Buyer and Seller will file their respective Tax Returns, including IRS Form 8023, in a manner consistent with the finalized Form 8023 Package.

(iii)

Seller will have the initial responsibility for the timely preparation of the allocation of the Purchase Price plus the amount of accrued liabilities, if any, and all other relevant items (and taking into account any appropriate adjustments under applicable Law), among the assets of the Company (the “Purchase Price Allocation”) and IRS Form 8883, or the comparable form under applicable state, local or foreign Law, and all supporting statements, schedules, and required information applicable thereto. Such Form 8883, comparable state, local or foreign forms, statements, schedules and information (the “Form 8883”) will be submitted to Buyer for its review no later than 45 days after the Closing Date. Within 30 days after Buyer receives the Form 8883, Buyer will notify Seller of any objections or proposed changes. If Buyer has no objections or proposed changes or if Seller and the Buyer agree on the resolution of all objections or proposed changes, Seller and Buyer will timely file Form 8883 and the relevant attachments with the IRS via certified mail with return receipt requested. If Buyer and Seller fail to agree with respect to any objection or proposed change within 20 days after Seller receives notice of objection from Buyer, then any disputed objection(s) or proposed change(s) will be submitted for resolution to a national accounting firm reasonably acceptable to each Party, which will report its final determination to Buyer and Seller within 30 days thereafter, and such accountants’ determination as to the appropriateness and extent of changes (if any) to the Form 8883 will be final and binding. The costs of such accountants’ determination will be borne equally by Buyer and Seller. Seller and Buyer shall: (A) be bound by the Purchase Price Allocation for purposes of determining any Taxes; (B) prepare and file their Tax Returns on a basis consistent with the Purchase Price Allocation; and (C) take no position inconsistent with the Purchase Price Allocation on any applicable Tax Return or in any proceeding before any Governmental Entity or otherwise. In the event that the Purchase Price Allocation is disputed by any Governmental Entity, the Party receiving notice of the dispute shall promptly notify the other Party, and Seller and Buyer agree to use their commercially reasonable efforts to defend such Purchase Price Allocation in any audit or similar proceeding.

(i)

From the date of this Agreement through and after the Closing, Seller shall prepare (or cause to be prepared) and timely file all Tax Returns relating to the Acquired Companies for taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date. Such Tax Returns shall not be prepared on a basis inconsistent with past practice (except as otherwise required by Law) without the prior written consent of Buyer (such consent not to be

unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), and Seller shall timely and duly remit or cause to be timely and duly remitted any Taxes shown as due in respect of such Tax Returns. Seller shall provide Buyer with copies of all such Tax Returns and supporting workpapers (or, in connection with Tax Returns of any Company Group, Tax packages which shall include pro forma Acquired Company separate Tax Returns and supporting workpapers) at least 20 days prior to the due date for the filing of such Tax Returns (including any extension thereof) for its review and comment prior to the filing of such Tax Returns by Seller. Seller shall make any changes reasonably requested Buyer at least 10 days prior to the due date for the filing of any such Tax Return.

(ii)

For all Pre-Closing Tax Periods of the Acquired Companies ending on or before the Closing Date, Seller shall cause the Acquired Companies to join in Seller’s consolidated federal income Tax Return. Seller shall include the income of the Acquired Companies (including any deferred items triggered into income by Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-13 and any excess loss account taken into income under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-19) on Seller’s consolidated federal income Tax Returns for all periods through the Closing Date and pay any Taxes attributable to such income. Such Tax Returns insofar as they relate to the Acquired Companies shall be prepared and filed in a manner consistent with prior practice, except as required by a change in applicable Laws, and Seller shall not make any election or fail to make any election (including an election under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-36(d)) that would have the effect of increasing the Tax liability of Buyer or either of the Acquired Companies in any Post-Closing Tax Period. In connection with any such Tax Returns prepared by Seller, at least 20 days prior to the due date for the filing of any such Tax Returns (taking into account any extension thereof), Seller shall provide Buyer with Tax packages for any such Tax Returns that shall include pro forma separate Tax Returns for the Acquired Companies and any supporting workpapers and Buyer shall have the right to review and comment on any such pro forma Tax Returns prepared by Seller prior to their filing. Seller shall make any changes reasonably requested Buyer at least 10 days prior to the due date for the filing of any such Tax Return. The consolidated federal income Tax Returns that include the Acquired Companies for its taxable period that ends on the Closing Date shall be prepared in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(1)(ii)(A). To the extent applicable, any state or local income Tax Returns shall be prepared in accordance with provisions comparable to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(1)(ii)(A) under state or local Law.

(iii)

Buyer shall prepare and timely file (or cause to be prepared and timely filed) when due (taking into account all extensions properly obtained) all other Tax Returns that are required to be filed by or with respect to the Acquired Companies after the Closing Date (including Tax Returns

relating to a Straddle Period), and Buyer shall remit or cause to be remitted to the applicable taxing authorities by the applicable due date any Taxes shown to be due in respect of such Tax Returns, subject to its right of indemnification pursuant to Section 5.12(a).

(iv)

With respect to Tax Returns to be filed by Buyer pursuant to Section 5.12(c)(iii) that relate to a Straddle Period, (x) unless otherwise required by applicable Law, such Tax Returns shall be filed in a manner consistent with positions taken, elections made or methods used in prior periods in filing such Tax Returns and (y) such Tax Returns shall be submitted to Seller not later than 45 days prior to the due date for filing such Tax Returns (giving effect to valid extensions) (or, if such due date is within 45 days following the Closing Date, as promptly as practicable following the Closing Date) for review and approval by Seller. If Seller objects to such Tax Return presented by Buyer, Seller shall notify Buyer of such disputed items and the basis for its objection within 20 days of the day of receipt of such Tax Return, and Buyer and Seller shall act in good faith to resolve any such dispute. If within 10 days of Seller’s delivery of a notice of objection the Parties have not reached an agreement regarding such Tax Return, the dispute shall be presented to a mutually acceptable nationally known independent accounting firm reasonably acceptable to each Party (which firm shall not then be providing any material services to Buyer, the either of the Acquired Companies or Seller), who shall resolve any dispute for the Tax Return and whose determination shall be final and binding on both Parties and may be entered and enforced in any court having jurisdiction. Buyer and Seller shall each pay one-half (1/2) of the fees and expenses of the such accounting firm.

(v)

Neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates shall amend, re-file or otherwise modify (or grant an extension of any statute of limitations with respect to) any Tax Return relating (A) in whole or in part to the Acquired Companies with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, or Post-Closing Tax Period which may impact Seller’s Tax liability without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(d) Refunds and Credits.

(i)

Any Tax refund, credit or similar benefit (including interest thereon) received by or credited to Buyer or any of its Affiliates that relates to any Taxes arising with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, or with respect to any Straddle Period, any Taxes in respect of the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date (and not reflected in the Final Net Working Capital Amount) shall be paid to Seller within 10 days after the receipt of such Tax refund or the claiming of such credit or similar benefit.

(ii)

For purposes of this Section 5.12(d), where it is necessary to apportion a refund, credit or similar benefit between Seller and Buyer for a Straddle Period, such refund, credit or similar benefit shall be apportioned between Seller and Buyer as provided in Section 5.12(a)(iii).

(iii)

At Seller’s cost and expense, Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, cooperate as may reasonably be requested by Seller in obtaining as soon as permitted by applicable Law any refund, credit or similar benefit that relates to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, and with respect to any Straddle Period, the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date, including through filing amended Tax Returns with the applicable taxing authorities.

(iv)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, foreign taxes, if any, paid or accrued for any Straddle Period with respect to the Acquired Companies shall be allocated between Seller and Buyer as provided in Section 5.12(a)(iii), and the Parties shall cooperate, prepare and file their respective Tax Returns on a basis consistent with such allocation and take no position inconsistent with such allocation in any Tax Return or any proceeding before any taxing authority or otherwise.

(e) Contests.

(i)

Buyer and Seller shall promptly notify the other Party in writing upon receipt of written notice of any pending or threatened audit, notice of deficiency, examination, assessment or any other administrative proceeding or court proceedings (“Audit”) which may affect any Tax liability for which the other Party is liable pursuant to this Section 5.12.

(ii)

In the case of any Audit that relates solely to Taxes for which Seller is liable under Section 5.12(a), Seller shall, at its option, have the sole right to (A) represent the interests of the Acquired Companies in such Audit; (B) employ counsel of its choice in connection therewith; and (C) settle such Audit; provided, however, if settlement or compromise of such Audit reasonably could be expected to adversely affect Buyer or the Acquired Companies, then Seller shall not settle or compromise any asserted Tax liability without the prior written consent of Buyer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).

(iii)

Buyer shall have the right to (A) control all other Audits, including all Audits involving any Post-Closing Tax Period (including any Straddle Period); (B) employ counsel of its choice; and (C) settle such Audit; provided, however, that Buyer shall afford Seller the opportunity to participate, as may reasonably be requested by Seller, with Buyer in contesting any Tax claim solely to the extent such Tax claim relates to Taxes that would give rise to a Seller indemnity obligation hereunder; and provided further that Buyer may not settle or compromise any asserted

Tax liability that would give rise to a Seller indemnity obligation hereunder without the prior written consent of Seller (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).

(f) Tax Sharing Agreements. All Tax sharing agreements, Tax indemnification agreements or similar agreements with respect to or involving the Acquired Companies shall be terminated as of the Closing Date and, after the Closing Date, the Acquired Companies shall not be bound thereby or have any liability thereunder.

(g) Tax Matters Cooperation.

Buyer acknowledges that except for those policies set forth in Section 5.14 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, the policies and insurance coverage maintained on behalf of Acquired Companies are part of the corporate insurance program maintained by Seller and certain of its Affiliates (such policies, the “Insurance Policies”), and such coverage will not be available or transferred to Buyer or the Acquired Companies. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, Buyer agrees and agrees to cause the Acquired Companies not to bring any claim for recovery under any of the Insurance Policies, whether or not such person may be so entitled in accordance with the terms of such Insurance Policies, for matters arising after the Closing. It is understood that Seller and its Affiliates shall be free at its discretion at any time to cancel or not renew any of the Insurance Policies.

Section 5.16 Customer Visits. During the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the Closing Date, without the prior written consent of Seller (which may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), Buyer shall not, and shall cause its officers, directors, employees and other agents not to, contact any suppliers to, or customers of, the Acquired Companies in connection with the Transaction. In the event Seller provides such consent, arrangements for such meetings shall be made through Seller, and a management employee Seller or an Affiliate of Seller shall at all times accompany Buyer to any meeting with such suppliers or customers and shall participate with Buyer in any such discussions.

Section 5.17 Transfer of Assets. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Seller shall be permitted to transfer from the Acquired Companies, at any time and at its own cost, any assets or Intellectual Property that are described on Section 5.17 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule.

Section 5.18 Further Assurances.

Section 5.19 No Solicitation.

(a) Until the earlier of the Closing or the date of termination of this Agreement, Seller shall not, and Seller shall cause its officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, consultants, representatives and or Affiliates (each, a “Seller Representative”) not to, directly or indirectly, take any of the following actions with any Person other than Buyer and its designees: (i) solicit, initiate, participate in or encourage any negotiations or discussions with respect to any inquiry, offer or proposal to acquire all or any portion of the business, properties, equity interests in or technologies of the Acquired Companies, or any amount of the Stock, whether by merger, purchase of assets, purchase or issuance of shares or rights to acquire shares, tender offer, or otherwise (a “Competing Transaction”), or effect any such transaction; (ii) disclose any information to any Person concerning the business, technologies or properties of the Acquired Companies, or afford to any third Person access to the Acquired Companies’ properties, technologies, books or records in connection with a Competing Transaction ; (iii) assist or cooperate with any Person to make any proposal regarding a Competing

Transaction; or (iv) enter into any agreement or understanding (whether binding or non-binding, written or oral) with any Person relating to a Competing Transaction. Seller has terminated any and all discussions relating to a Competing Transaction (other than discussions with Buyer). In the event that Seller or any Seller Representative shall receive, prior to the Closing or the termination of this Agreement, any inquiry, offer, proposal or request, directly or indirectly, of the type referenced in clause (i), (iii) or (iv) above, or any request for disclosure or access as referenced in clause (ii) above, then Seller shall, and shall cause such Acquired Company representative to, (A) immediately terminate, suspend or otherwise discontinue any and all discussions or other negotiations with such Person with regard to such inquiry, offer, proposal, or request; and (B) promptly notify Buyer thereof, and furnish to Buyer any information it may reasonably request, including information as to the identity of the Person making any such inquiry, offer or proposal and the specific terms of such inquiry, offer or proposal, as the case may be, and such other information related thereto as Buyer may reasonably request, including a copy thereof or a summary of the principal terms of any such inquiry, offer or proposal that is not in writing and all written documentation relating thereto.

(b) The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that the provisions of this Section 5.19 were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed by the Parties that Buyer will be entitled to an immediate injunction or injunctions, without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy and without the necessity of posting any bond or other security, to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Section 5.19 and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of the United States or any state having jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which Buyer may be entitled at law or in equity. Without limiting the foregoing, it is understood that any violation of the restrictions set forth above by any Seller Representative will be deemed to be a breach of this Agreement by Seller.

Section 5.20 Covenants Against Competition.

(a) The Parties acknowledge and agree that (A) Buyer’s specific intent is to conduct the Restricted Business through the Acquired Companies after the Closing; and (B) the covenants set forth in this Section 5.20 are appropriate to enable Buyer to retain the goodwill of the Acquired Companies in the Restricted Business, which is based on the efforts of the Acquired Companies prior to the consummation of the Transaction. Accordingly, Seller agrees that neither it nor any of its Affiliates shall, directly or indirectly:

(i)

For the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the two year anniversary of the Closing Date, engage in or have any interest (financial or otherwise) in, or serve in any capacity of control with, any Person (other than Buyer or an Acquired Company) engaged in the Restricted Business anywhere in the world;

(ii)

For the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending 18 months after the Closing Date (the “Restriction Period”), solicit, hire, engage or retain any individual who is or has been at any time during the Restriction Period an employee of either of the Acquired Companies; provided that (A) general solicitations for employment that are not directed to such

employee shall be permitted; and (B) any individual who has been terminated may be solicited by Seller and its Affiliates six months after such termination; or

(iii)

Attempt to do any of the foregoing.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, nothing in this Section 5.20 will:

(i)

Prohibit or restrict the ownership by Seller or any of its Affiliates, solely for investment purposes, of less than 5% of the equity securities of a publicly traded entity that engages in the Restricted Business as long as neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates is a controlling Person or a member of a group that controls such Person;

(ii)

Prohibit or restrict Seller or any of its Affiliates from acquiring equity interests in or assets of a Person (an “Acquired Person”) engaged in the Restricted Business if the gross revenues of such Acquired Person from the Restricted Business in the 12 months prior to the consummation of such acquisition do not exceed 10% of the total sales revenues of the Acquired Person during such period; or

(iii)

Prohibit or restrict Seller or any of its Affiliates engaged in a Restricted Business as of the date of this Agreement from continuing to engage in such Restricted Business in a manner consistent with the way that Seller or such Affiliate has engaged in such Restricted Business.

(c) The covenants in Section 5.20(a)(i) will terminate upon the occurrence of any of the following: (i) any Person is or becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of voting securities of Seller or any direct or indirect parent of Seller representing more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities or rights to acquire such securities of Seller or any direct or indirect parent of Seller; (ii) the consummation by Seller or any direct or indirect parent of Seller of a merger, consolidation or other transaction or series of related transactions in which the voting securities of Seller or any direct or indirect parent of Seller outstanding immediately prior thereto do not continue to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving or resulting entity) more than 50% of the combined voting power of the surviving or resulting entity (or any direct or indirect parent or Subsidiary thereof) outstanding immediately after such merger, consolidation or other transaction or series of related transactions; or (c) any sale, lease, exchange or other transfer (in one transaction or a series of transactions) of all or substantially all of the assets of Seller or any direct or indirect parent of Seller.

(d) If Seller breaches, or threatens to commit a breach of, any of the restrictions imposed on Seller by this Section 5.20 (the “Restrictive Covenants”), Buyer shall have the right to have the Restrictive Covenants specifically enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction, it being agreed that any breach or threatened breach of the Restrictive Covenants may cause irreparable injury to Buyer and that money damages may not provide an adequate remedy to Buyer.

(e) It is the intent of the Parties that the Restrictive Covenants be limited to as to be reasonable and valid in geographical and temporal scope and in all other respects. If any court determines that any of the Restrictive Covenants, or any part thereof, is invalid or unenforceable as to Seller, then the remainder of the Restrictive Covenants shall not thereby be affected and shall be given full effect without regard to the invalid portions. If any court determines that any of the Restrictive Covenants, or any part thereof, are unenforceable as to Seller because of the duration or geographic scope of such provision, such court shall have the power to reduce the duration or scope of such provision, as the case may be, as to Seller, and, in its reduced form, such provision shall then be enforceable.

Section 5.21 Production of Witnesses and Individuals. From and after the Closing Date, Seller and Buyer shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to make available to each other, upon written request, their respective directors, officers and employees for fact finding, consultation and interviews and as witnesses to the extent that any such Person may reasonably be required in connection with any legal proceeding in which the requesting party may from time to time be involved relating to the business of the Acquired Companies. Seller, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, agree to reimburse each other for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (other than officers’ or employees’ salaries) incurred by the other in connection with providing individuals and witnesses pursuant to this Section 5.21. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 5.21 shall not apply to legal proceedings brought between Seller and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Buyer and its Affiliates, on the other hand.

Section 5.22 Access. From the date hereof and prior to the Closing, upon reasonable prior written notice from Buyer, Seller shall permit Buyer and its Affiliates, employees, agents, consultants, accountants and legal counsel to (a) have reasonable access to the books and records (including Tax records) and all other documents or agreements pertaining to the Acquired Companies or their respective businesses during normal business hours; and (b) visit and inspect any of the properties of the Acquired Companies during normal business hours. Seller will cause its and the Acquired Companies’ officers, employees, consultants, agents, accountants, attorneys and other representatives to cooperate with Buyer and its Affiliates, employees, agents, consultants, accountants and legal counsel in connection with such investigation and examination, and Buyer and its Affiliates, employees, agents, consultants, accountants and legal counsel will cooperate with Seller, the Acquired Companies and their respective representatives and will use their respective reasonable best efforts to minimize any disruption to Acquired Companies.
