2.2 Subscription and Sale. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Company agrees to sell to each Purchaser, and each Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to subscribe for and purchase, the number of Shares set forth opposite such Purchaser’s name on the Schedule of Purchasers at a purchase price of $74.0652 per share. In consideration of the sale and issuance of Shares to each Purchaser by the Company, on the Closing Date, following (i) the satisfaction of each of the conditions set forth in Sections 6 hereof (or the waiver of such conditions by each of the Purchasers); and (ii) the satisfaction of each of the conditions set forth in Section 7 hereof (or the waiver of such conditions by the Company), the Company shall deliver to each Purchaser a certificate or certificates representing the Shares purchased by such Purchaser, free and clear of any lien, charge, claim (including any adverse claim), security interest, mortgage or other encumbrance of any nature whatsoever.

The Company may use no more than an aggregate of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) of the net proceeds of any sale of Shares to Subsequent Purchasers to repurchase shares of the Company’s capital stock from the Series A-1 Investors. The remainder of the net proceeds of the sale of Shares to the Purchasers and any Subsequent Purchasers shall be used to finance organic growth, to pursue acquisitions and for working capital and general corporate purposes. The Board of Directors of the Company shall, within thirty days of the Closing Date, determine the Employee Stockholders from whom capital stock will be purchased and the amount to be purchased from each such Employee Stockholder, and shall provide notice of such determination to the Purchasers.

2.4 Subsequent Sales of Series A-2 Preferred Stock. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company may sell up to the balance of the Shares not sold at the Closing on the Closing Date to one or more purchasers (each a “Subsequent Purchaser”) at the same price per share that is paid by the Purchasers. No sale to any Subsequent Purchaser may be made more than forty-five (45) days after the Closing on the Closing Date; provided, however, that the Company shall have the right to extend the foregoing forty-five (45) day period by an additional twenty (20) days if the Company is engaged in active discussions with a potential Subsequent Purchaser at the expiration of such forty-five (45) day period. All sales to Subsequent Purchasers made at additional closings (each an “Additional Closing”), (i) shall be made upon the same terms and conditions as those set forth herein, (ii) the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in Section 4 hereof (and the Schedules hereto) shall speak as of the Closing on the Closing Date and the Company shall have no obligation to update any such disclosure, (iii) the representations and warranties of the Subsequent Purchasers in Section 5 hereof shall speak as of such Additional Closing, and (iv) the Subsequent Purchasers shall be entitled to rely upon the legal opinion delivered at the Closing on the Closing Date.

2.5 Independent Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Purchaser under this Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of the other Purchasers, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under this Agreement. The representations and warranties of each Purchaser under this Agreement are several and not joint with the representations and warranties of the other Purchasers, and no Purchaser shall be deemed to have made any representation or warranty with respect to any other Purchaser under this Agreement. Nothing contained herein, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for the other Purchasers to be joined as additional parties in any proceeding for such purpose.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Purchaser’s obligation to purchase Shares hereunder is conditioned on the contemporaneous closing of the purchase of Shares by the other Purchasers and, if, for any reason, any Purchaser shall refuse to enter into this Agreement or shall fail to consummate its obligations hereunder, all obligations of the other Purchasers hereunder shall be null and void.

SECTION 5

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF PURCHASERS

Each Purchaser (solely as to itself and not as to any other Purchaser) hereby represents and warrants as follows:

5.1 Authorization. This Agreement constitutes the Purchaser’s valid and legally binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms except as may be limited by (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other laws of general application relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (ii) the effect of rules of law governing the availability of equitable remedies. Such Purchaser has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement.

5.2 Unregistered Offering and Sale of Securities.

(i) Investment. The Shares are being acquired for the Purchaser’s own account and with no intention of distributing the Shares or any part thereof other than in accordance with the Securities Act and other applicable securities and blue sky laws, and the Purchaser has no present intention of selling or granting any participation in or otherwise

distributing the same in any transaction in violation of the Securities Act or the securities or blue sky laws of any other jurisdiction. If the Purchaser should in the future decide to dispose of any of the Shares, the Purchaser understands and hereby agrees that it may do so only in compliance with the Securities Act and applicable securities and blue sky laws of any other jurisdiction, as then in effect, which may include a sale contemplated by any registration statement pursuant to which the Shares are then being offered.

(ii) No Registration. The Purchaser understands that (i) the Shares (A) have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, (B) will be issued in reliance upon an exemption from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Regulation D or Regulation S thereof and (C) will be issued in reliance upon exemptions from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of state securities laws which relate to private offerings, and (ii) the Purchaser must therefore bear the economic risk of such investment indefinitely unless a subsequent disposition thereof is registered or exempted under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or is exempt therefrom.

(iii) Nature of Purchasers. The Purchaser represents and warrants to the Company that it is one of the following as indicated on the Purchaser’s signature page hereto:

(a) (A) an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) promulgated under the Securities Act or a “qualified institutional buyer” as defined in Rule 144A promulgated by the SEC pursuant to the Securities Act and (B) by reason of its business and financial experience it has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in making similar investments and in business and financial matters generally so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Shares.

(b) (A) not a U.S. Person (as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act, which definition includes, but is not limited to, an individual resident in the United States, an estate or trust of which any executor or administrator or trustee, respectively, is a U.S. Person and any partnership or corporation organized or incorporated under the laws of the United States) and is not purchasing the Shares on behalf of, or for the account or benefit of, a Person in the United States or a U.S. Person; (B) the Shares have not been offered to the Purchaser in the United States, and the individuals making the order to purchase the Shares and executing and delivering this Agreement on behalf of the Purchaser were not in the United States when the order was placed and this Agreement was executed and delivered; (C) it undertakes and agrees that it will not offer, sell or otherwise transfer the Shares except: (1) to the Company, (2) outside the United States in accordance with Rule 903 or 904 of Regulation S under the Securities Act, and in compliance with applicable local laws and regulations, (3) inside or outside the United States after one year pursuant to the exemption from registration under the Securities Act provided by Rule 144 thereunder, (4) to a Person it reasonably believes is a “qualified institutional buyer” (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act) purchasing for its own account or for the account of a qualified institutional buyer in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A, (5) inside the United States, in any other transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act and, in any event, in compliance with any applicable state securities laws of the United States, provided that prior to any transfer pursuant to this clause (5), the Company may require a legal opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such

transfer is exempt from registration under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or (6) pursuant to a registration statement effective under the Securities Act and covering such offer, sale or transfer; and (D) it agrees not to engage in hedging transactions involving the Shares unless in compliance with the Securities Act.

(iv) Receipt of Information; Authorization. Such Purchaser acknowledges that it has been provided a reasonable opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from representatives of the Company, and to be furnished requested information, regarding the Company’s business, management and financial affairs sufficient to enable the Purchaser to evaluate the risks and merits of purchasing the Shares and consummating the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

5.3 Purchaser’s Liquidity. Such Purchaser: (i) has no need for liquidity in such Purchaser’s investment; (ii) is able to bear the substantial economic risks of an investment in the Shares for an indefinite period; and (iii) at the present time, can afford a complete loss of such investment. Such Purchaser’s current commitments to illiquid investments is not disproportionate to such Purchaser’s net worth, and such Purchaser’s investment in the Shares will not cause such commitment to become disproportionate.

5.4 No Other Representations or Warranties. Such Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Company is not making and has not made any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than those specifically set forth in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

5.5 Foreign Purchasers.

Such Purchaser’s subscription and payment for, and continued ownership of, the Shares shall not violate any applicable securities or other laws of such Purchaser’s jurisdiction.

INDEMNIFICATION

9.1 General Indemnity. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Section 9, the Company hereby agrees to and shall indemnify, defend and hold each Purchaser harmless from and against all demands, claims, actions or causes of action, assessments, losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses, including, without limitation, interest, penalties and the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel (collectively, “Damages”), asserted against, imposed upon or incurred by such Purchaser by reason of or resulting from a breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company under Section 4 of this Agreement.

9.2 Conditions of Indemnification. The obligations and liabilities of the Company to each Purchaser (herein sometimes called the “party to be indemnified”) under Section 9.1 hereof with respect to claims resulting from the assertion of liability by third parties shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

(a) within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice of commencement of any action or the assertion in writing of any claim by a third party, the party to be indemnified shall give the Company written notice thereof together with a copy of such claim, process or other legal pleading (provided, however, that failure to give such notice shall not affect the obligations of the Company under this Section 9 unless and to the extent that such failure shall be prejudicial to the defense of such claim by the Company), and the Company shall have the right to undertake the defense thereof by representatives of its own choosing;

(b) in the event that the Company, by the 30th day after receipt of notice of any such claim (or, if earlier, by the 20th day preceding the day on which an answer or other pleading must be served in order to prevent judgment by default in favor of the person asserting such claim), does not elect to defend against such claim, the party to be indemnified will (upon further notice to the Company) have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such claim on behalf of and for the account and risk of the Company, subject to the right of the Company to assume the defense of such claim at any time prior to settlement, compromise or final determination thereof, provided that the Company shall be given at least fifteen (15) days prior written notice of the effectiveness of any such proposed settlement or compromise;

9.3 Other Limitations. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary:

(a) The Company shall have no liability (for indemnification or otherwise) to a Purchaser with respect to breaches of any representation or warranty contained in Section 4 hereof (other than those contained in Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 or 4.4 hereof) until the aggregate monetary value of all such Damages exceeds $50,000 (the “Basket”), in which event such Purchaser shall be entitled to indemnification for Damages so incurred from the first dollar, not just Damages in excess of the Basket.

(b) The maximum aggregate amount of indemnification that the Company shall be obligated to pay to any Purchaser under this Section 9 or otherwise shall in no event exceed the Aggregate Purchase Price paid by such Purchaser.

(d) The monetary value of any Damages indemnifiable by the Company pursuant to this Section shall exclude claims for lost profits or other consequential or indirect damages.

(e) A claim for Damages resulting from the breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Section 4 hereof shall lapse unless notice of such claim shall have been delivered to the Company, on or prior to the date occurring ninety (90) days after the date on which a Purchaser receives from the Company a copy of the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2008; provided, however, that (i) a claim for damages resulting from the breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 or 4.4 hereof shall survive indefinitely, and (ii) a claim for damages resulting from the breach of any representation or warranty contained in Section 4.11 hereof shall survive for three (3) years from the Closing Date.

SECTION 10

MISCELLANEOUS

10.1 Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement and the Schedules and Exhibits to this Agreement constitute the full and entire understanding and agreement between the parties with regard to the subjects hereof and thereof, and any and all other written or oral agreements relating to the subject matter hereof existing between the parties hereto are expressly superseded hereby. Any term of this Agreement may be amended and the observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) only with the written consent of the parties hereto.

10.2 Governing Law; Dispute Resolution.

(a) This Agreement shall be governed in all respects by and construed under the laws of New York, without regard to principles of conflicts of law that would result in the application of the laws of another jurisdiction, except that issues relating to the arbitration clause shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (Chapters 1 and 2).

(b) All disputes arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall to the extent possible be settled amicably by negotiation between the parties within 30 days from the date of written notice by any party of the existence of such dispute, and failing such amicable settlement, any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including any question regarding its existence, validity or termination, shall be settled by arbitration administered by the AAA in accordance with its International Arbitration Rules. The place of arbitration shall be New York, New York. The language of the arbitration shall be English. There shall be one arbitrator. If thirty (30) days after a claimant’s submission of the notice of arbitration, the parties cannot mutually agree on the selection of an arbitrator, then the AAA shall appoint the arbitrator. Any award(s) entered by the arbitrator shall be final and binding on the parties, and each party hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by law any right it may otherwise have under the laws of any jurisdiction to any form of appeal or collateral attack. Judgment upon any award(s) rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

(c) EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER

PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10.2(c).

(e) Except as may be required by law, no party nor its representatives nor a witness nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of all parties to the arbitration.

(f) Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that irreparable harm would occur in the event that any of the agreements and provisions of this Agreement were not performed fully by the parties hereto in accordance with their specific terms or conditions or were otherwise breached, and that money damages are an inadequate remedy for breach of this Agreement because of the difficulty of ascertaining and quantifying the amount of damage that will be suffered by the parties hereto in the event that this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its terms or conditions or is otherwise breached. Accordingly nothing in this Agreement shall prevent any party from seeking provisional measures from any court of competent jurisdiction, and any such request shall not be deemed incompatible with the agreement to arbitrate or a waiver of the right to arbitrate. Each party hereto specifically waives any claim or defense that there is an adequate remedy at law for any breach. After the arbitrator is appointed, the arbitrator shall have sole jurisdiction to consider applications for provisional measures or other equitable relief, and any relief ordered by the arbitrator may be specifically enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction.

10.3 Survival. The representations and warranties made herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Closing until the date occurring ninety (90) days after the date on which a Purchaser receives from the Company a copy of the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2008; provided, however, that (i) the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 or 4.4 hereof shall survive indefinitely, and (ii) the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.11 hereof shall survive for three (3) years from the Closing Date.

10.4 Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators of the parties hereto. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto or their respective successors and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided in this Agreement.

10.5 Notices. All notices and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given (i) upon actual delivery to the party to be notified, (ii) 24 hours after confirmed facsimile transmission, or (iii) one Business Day after deposit with a recognized overnight courier, addressed (a) if to the Purchaser, at the Purchaser’s address set forth on the signature pages hereto, or at such other address as the Purchaser shall have furnished to the Company in writing upon 10 days’ notice, (b) if to any other holder of any Shares, at such address as such holder shall have furnished the Company in writing upon 10 days’ notice or, until any such holder so furnishes an address to the Company, to and at the

address of the last holder of such Shares who has so furnished an address to the Company, or (c) if to the Company, at the following address:

It is further agreed that any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind of character on a Purchaser’s part of any breach or default under this Agreement, or any waiver on a Purchaser’s part of any provisions or conditions of this Agreement must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing and that all remedies, either under this Agreement, or by law or otherwise afforded to a Purchaser, shall be cumulative and not alternative.

10.11 Exculpation Among Purchasers.
