2.05 Assignment of Contracts and Rights.

(a) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, this Agreement will not constitute an assignment, an attempted assignment or an agreement to assign any Assumed Contract or Permit that is intended to be a Transferred Asset, if an assignment or attempted assignment of the same without the consent of any other party or parties thereto would constitute a breach thereof or violation of any Applicable Law or (A) result in any increase in any payment or change in any term, (B) give rise to any right of amendment, termination, cancellation or acceleration of any right or obligation or to a loss of benefit or (C) grant any repayment or repurchase rights to any Person, which, in the case of (A), (B) or (C) above, is adverse to Seller or, upon transfer, Buyer or any of its Affiliates, and the consent of such party or parties shall not have been obtained on or prior to the Closing. If any such consent is not obtained on or prior to the Closing and as a result thereof Buyer shall be prevented from receiving the rights and benefits with respect to the Transferred Assets intended to be transferred hereunder, then (1) Seller will use its

commercially reasonable efforts to (x) cause the full benefits of any such Assumed Contract or Permit to be provided to Buyer, (y) subject to Buyer’s performance pursuant to clause (2) below, hold in trust for, and pay promptly or cause to be paid promptly to, Buyer when received all monies and other properties received by Seller or any of its Subsidiaries under any such Assumed Contract, and (z) enforce at the request of and for the benefit of Buyer, and at Buyer’s expense, any rights of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries arising under any such Assumed Contract or Permit; and (2) in consideration of Seller providing or causing to be provided to Buyer the full benefits thereof, Buyer will use its commercially reasonable efforts to perform and discharge on behalf of Seller, all of Seller’s Liabilities thereunder that are Assumed Liabilities in accordance with the provisions thereof. Subject to Section 5.06, Buyer agrees that Seller shall not have any liability to Buyer arising out of or relating to the failure to obtain any such consent that may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or because of any circumstances resulting therefrom. Buyer further agrees that no representation, warranty or covenant of Seller herein shall be breached or deemed breached and, except as provided in Section 6.01(g), no condition shall be deemed not satisfied, as a result of (i) the failure to obtain any such consent or any circumstances resulting therefrom or (ii) any suit, action, proceeding or investigation commenced or threatened by or on behalf of any Person arising out of or relating to the failure to obtain any such consent or any circumstances resulting therefrom.

(b) Following the Closing, the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts, and shall cooperate with each other, to obtain promptly all consents of third parties not obtained on or prior to Closing with respect to Material Assumed Contracts; provided, however, that neither Party nor any of such Party’s Subsidiaries shall be required to pay any consideration therefor other than as provided by Section 5.06. Once each such consent has been obtained, Seller shall promptly sell, assign, transfer, convey and license such Material Assumed Contract to Buyer for no additional consideration. Applicable transfer Taxes in connection with each such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance and license shall be paid in accordance with Section 5.10(e).

(c) No other rights are granted hereunder, by implication, estoppel, statute or otherwise, except as expressly provided herein or in any other Acquisition Document.

2.06 Purchase Price. The aggregate consideration payable by Buyer to Seller for the Transferred Assets and the Assumed Liabilities shall consist of cash in the amount of One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000) (the “Purchase Price”), as adjusted pursuant to Section 2.07 or Section 7.08.

2.07 Purchase Price Adjustments.

(a) As soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event more than nineteen (19) Business Days after the date of this Agreement, Buyer shall notify Seller of the list of Business Employees to whom it has not extended Comparable Offers and the list of Business Employees to whom it has extended Comparable Offers and the terms of such Comparable Offers with respect to cash compensation, title and location of employment and confirmation that the Comparable Offer was made pursuant to an employment letter as described in Section 5.15(a). As soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event more than ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the foregoing notice from Buyer, Seller shall notify Buyer if it believes additional Business Employees should be

included on the foregoing lists based on Seller’s analysis of whether Buyer has made Comparable Offers to such Business Employees. Not less than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Buyer Seller’s calculation of the Aggregate Severance Amount (the “Closing Aggregate Severance Amount”). The Purchase Price shall be increased dollar for dollar by the amount of the Closing Aggregate Severance Amount. The adjustment to the Purchase Price in this Section 2.07(a) is subject to further adjustment in accordance with Sections 2.07(c) and 2.07(d) below.

(b) Not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Buyer an estimated calculation of the Closing Working Capital (the “Estimated Closing Working Capital”), with reasonable supporting detail as to such calculation. If the Working Capital Target exceeds the Estimated Closing Working Capital by more than the Collar Amount, then the Purchase Price shall be reduced dollar for dollar by the amount by which (i) the Working Capital Target exceeds (ii) the Estimated Closing Working Capital plus the Collar Amount. If the Estimated Closing Working Capital exceeds the Working Capital Target by more than the Collar Amount, then the Purchase Price shall be increased dollar for dollar by the amount by which (i) the Estimated Closing Working Capital minus the Collar Amount exceeds (ii) the Working Capital Target. The adjustments to the Purchase Price in this Section 2.07(b) are subject to further adjustment in accordance with Sections 2.07(c) and 2.07(d) below.

(c) Buyer shall have thirty (30) days following the Closing Date (the “Examination Period”) to examine the Estimated Closing Working Capital and the Closing Aggregate Severance Amount calculations. If, at any time during the Examination Period, Buyer disputes (i) whether the Estimated Closing Working Capital accurately reflects the Closing Working Capital or (ii) the Closing Aggregate Severance Amount calculation, then Buyer may deliver to Seller a notice of dispute setting forth in reasonable detail the amount which Buyer believes to be the correct Closing Working Capital and/or the Aggregate Severance Amount and the items in the supporting documentation which form the basis for such dispute (a “Payment Dispute Notice”). Upon the expiration of the Examination Period, if no Payment Dispute Notice has been provided by Buyer during the Examination Period, or if all provided Payment Dispute Notice(s) have been withdrawn by Buyer, then the calculation of the Closing Aggregate Severance Amount pursuant to Section 2.07(a) above and the calculation of the Estimated Closing Working Capital provided pursuant to Section 2.07(b) above shall be deemed accepted by Buyer. However, if upon the expiration of the Examination Period, one or more Payment Dispute Notice(s) has or have been delivered and not withdrawn, then, for a period of twenty (20) Business Days following the end of the Examination Period (the “Negotiation Period”), Buyer and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to attempt to agree on the calculation of the Aggregate Severance Amount and/or Closing Working Capital, as applicable.

(d) To the extent a Payment Dispute Notice has been delivered and not withdrawn and no agreement pursuant to Section 2.07(c) is reached during the Negotiation Period, then either Buyer or Seller may, within ten (10) Business Days after the end of the Negotiation Period, as applicable, (i) refer any dispute as to the Aggregate Severance Amount to a single arbitrator selected by JAMS in accordance with Section 9.10 of this Agreement and/or (ii) engage the Independent Expert to consider the matters remaining in dispute with respect to the calculation of Closing Working Capital. Such arbitrator and/or Independent Expert shall be directed to deliver

its determination of items in dispute which shall include any adjustments required to the calculation of Closing Working Capital or Aggregate Severance Amount (the amount of each thereof as determined by the arbitrator or Independent Expert being an “Independent Calculation”) to Buyer and Seller no later than thirty (30) Business Days following such appointment. The arbitrator or Independent Expert, as the case may be, shall be limited in its engagement and decision to the particular line items and range of amounts set forth in the Payment Dispute Notice(s) and such other disputed matters as to the Aggregate Severance Amount not settled by written agreement during the Negotiation Period, and shall not render a decision on any other matters or any amount outside such disputed range. The decision of the arbitrator or Independent Expert, as the case may be, shall be final and binding upon the Parties. The costs and expenses of such arbitrator or Independent Expert, as the case may be (the “Determination Costs”) shall be borne by Buyer; provided, however, that should the arbitrator or Independent Expert determine that there exists a discrepancy between the Closing Aggregate Severance Amount and the correct Aggregate Severance Amount or between the Estimated Closing Working Capital and the Closing Working Capital, collectively, as set forth in the Final Calculation in excess of $500,000, then the Determination Costs shall be borne by Seller. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Final Calculation” means, as applicable, (x) a definitive written agreement between the Parties on any amount within the Negotiation Period, (y) the Closing Aggregate Severance Amount or any item of the Estimated Closing Working Capital, if a Payment Dispute Notice is not timely delivered with respect thereto or (z) the Independent Calculation. After receipt of the Final Calculation by the Parties:

(i) If such Final Calculation reflects an Aggregate Severance Amount greater than the Closing Aggregate Severance Amount, then within two (2) Business Days of delivery of such Final Calculation, Buyer shall pay to Seller the amount by which such Aggregate Severance Amount as reflected in such Final Calculation exceeds the Closing Aggregate Severance Amount;

(ii) If such Final Calculation reflects an Closing Aggregate Severance Amount greater than the Aggregate Severance Amount, then within two (2) Business Days of delivery of such Final Calculation, Seller shall pay to Buyer the amount by which such Closing Aggregate Severance Amount exceeds the Aggregate Severance Amount as reflected in such Final Calculation;

(iii) If such Final Calculation reflects Closing Working Capital greater than the Estimated Closing Working Capital and:

(A) if the Estimated Working Capital resulted in an increase to the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.07(b), then within two (2) Business Days of delivery of such Final Calculation, Buyer shall pay to Seller the amount by which (i) such Closing Working Capital as reflected in such Final Calculation exceeds (ii) the Estimated Closing Working Capital.

by which (i) such Closing Working Capital as reflected in such Final Calculation minus the Collar Amount, exceeds (ii) the Working Capital Target.

(C) if (1) the Estimated Working Capital resulted in a decrease to the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.07(b) and (2) the Working Capital Target exceeds the Closing Working Capital (as reflected in such Final Calculation) by more than the Collar Amount, then within two (2) Business Days of delivery of such Final Calculation, Buyer shall pay to Seller the amount by which (i) such Closing Working Capital as reflected in such Final Calculation exceeds (ii) the Estimated Closing Working Capital.

(D) if (1) the Estimated Working Capital resulted in a decrease to the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.07(b) and (2) if the Closing Working Capital (as reflected in such Final Calculation) exceeds the Working Capital Target by more than the Collar Amount, then within two (2) Business Days of delivery of such Final Calculation, Buyer shall pay to Seller an amount equal to (i) such Closing Working Capital as reflected in such Final Calculation minus (ii) the Estimated Closing Working Capital, minus (iii) two times the Collar Amount.

(E) if (1) the Estimated Working Capital resulted in a decrease to the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.07(b) and (2) neither the Working Capital Target exceeds the Closing Working Capital (as reflected in such Final Calculation) by more than the Collar Amount, nor the Closing Working Capital (as reflected in such Final Calculation) exceeds the Working Capital Target by more than the Collar Amount, then within two (2) Business Days of delivery of such Final Calculation, Buyer shall pay to Seller an amount equal to the amount of the decrease to the Purchase Price made pursuant to Section 2.07(b);

(iv) If such Final Calculation reflects Closing Working Capital less than the Estimated Closing Working Capital and:

(A) if the Estimated Working Capital resulted in a decrease to the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.07(b), then within two (2) Business Days of delivery of such Final Calculation, Seller shall pay to Buyer the amount by which (i) the Estimated Closing Working Capital exceeds (ii) such Closing Working Capital as reflected in such Final Calculation.

(B) if the Estimated Working Capital resulted in neither an increase nor a decrease to the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.07(b), then within two (2) Business Days of delivery of such Final Calculation, Seller shall pay to Buyer the amount, if any, by which (i) the Working Capital Target exceeds (ii) the Closing Working Capital as reflected in such Final Calculation plus the Collar Amount.

(C) if (1) the Estimated Working Capital resulted in an increase to the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.07(b) and (2) if the Closing Working Capital (as reflected in such Final Calculation) exceeds the Working Capital Target by more than the Collar Amount, then within two (2) Business Days of delivery of such Final Calculation, Seller shall pay to Buyer the amount by which (i) the Estimated Closing Working Capital exceeds (ii) such Closing Working Capital as reflected in such Final Calculation.

(D) if (1) the Estimated Working Capital resulted in an increase to the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.07(b) and (2) if the Working Capital Target exceeds the Closing Working Capital (as reflected in such Final Calculation) by more than the Collar Amount, then within two (2) Business Days of delivery of such Final Calculation, Seller shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to (i) the Estimated Closing Working Capital minus, (ii) such Closing Working Capital as reflected in such Final Calculation minus (iii) two times the Collar Amount.

(E) if (1) the Estimated Working Capital resulted in a increase to the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.07(b) and (2) neither the Working Capital Target exceeds the Closing Working Capital (as reflected in such Final Calculation) by more than the Collar Amount, nor the Closing Working Capital (as reflected in such Final Calculation) exceeds the Working Capital Target by more than the Collar Amount, then within two (2) Business Days of delivery of such Final Calculation, Seller shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to the amount of the increase to the Purchase Price made pursuant to Section 2.07(b).

For purposes of clarity, attached hereto as Exhibit 2.07 are examples illustrating a variety of Purchase Price adjustment scenarios related to Closing Working Capital.

2.08 Allocation of Purchase Price. As promptly as practicable after the Closing, and in any event within 60 days after Closing, Seller shall have prepared a schedule allocating the Purchase Price among the Transferred Assets in accordance with the rules under Section 1060 of the Code and deliver such schedule to Buyer. Buyer shall then have not more than 30 days to notify Seller in writing of Buyer’s acceptance and adoption of the allocation schedule for its or Parent’s Tax Returns or specify the nature of any reasonable objections Buyer may have. Buyer and Seller shall attempt in good faith to resolve any such Buyer objections to Seller’s allocation schedule. Any issues with respect to the allocation that have not been finally resolved within 120 days following Closing shall be referred to an internationally recognized firm of independent public accountants to which the Seller and Buyer mutually agree, whose determination shall be final and binding upon the Parties. Any costs incurred for the services of such firm shall be split equally between the Buyer Parties and Seller.

2.09 Closing. The closing of the purchase and sale of the Transferred Assets and the assignment of the Assumed Liabilities hereunder (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ no later than the second Business Day after satisfaction (or waiver) of the latest to occur of the conditions set forth in Article VI (other than those conditions which by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of those conditions), or at such other place or in such manner as the Parties may agree; provided that the Buyer Parties shall not be required to effect the Closing prior to 45 days after the date of this Agreement (or such earlier date as indicated by Buyer to Seller in writing).

3.02 Authorization and Enforceability.

This Agreement has been and, when executed at the Closing, the other Acquisition Documents to which it is a party will have been, duly and validly executed by Seller and, assuming the due execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Acquisition Documents to which it is a party by the Buyer Parties, will constitute legal, valid and binding agreements of Seller, enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms, subject to any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to creditors’ rights generally or to general principles of equity.

3.03 Governmental Authorization. The execution, delivery and performance by Seller of this Agreement and the other Acquisition Documents to which it is a party, and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, require no Governmental

Approval from any Governmental Authority except for any filings required to be made under the HSR Act (any such Governmental Approvals, the “Seller Approvals”).

3.04 Non-Contravention. Except as set forth on Section 3.04 of the Disclosure Letter, the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Acquisition Documents to which it is a party by Seller, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, do not and will not (a) conflict with the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of Seller, (b) assuming receipt of the Seller Approvals, if any, conflict with or constitute a violation of any provision of any Applicable Law or any judgment, injunction or decree of a Governmental Authority binding upon or applicable to Seller, the Business, the Transferred Assets or the Assumed Liabilities, other than the WARN Act or similar Applicable Law or (c) (i) require any consent or notice under, result in a breach, violation or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to any right of termination, cancellation, modification or acceleration of any obligation to or right of a third party or loss of any benefit under any Material Assumed Contract (any such consents, the “Seller Contractual Consents), or (ii) result in the creation or imposition of any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) on any of the Transferred Assets; except in the case of subclauses (b) and (c) above, where any failure to obtain consents or deliver notices or where such conflicts, violations, defaults, rights of termination, cancellations, modifications, accelerations or losses would not, singly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

3.05 Title to Personal Property. Seller has, and, assuming the receipt of all approvals and consents necessary as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, Buyer will at the Closing acquire, good and marketable title to all of the tangible personal property that constitutes the Transferred Assets, in each case, free and clear of any Liens other than (a) Permitted Liens, (b) any restriction expressly contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Acquisition Documents and (c) any Liens arising out of any actions of the Buyer Parties or their Affiliates.

The conduct by Seller and its Subsidiaries of the Business, as currently conducted, including the use or commercial exploitation of the Transferred Intellectual Property by Seller and its Subsidiaries in connection therewith, does not infringe upon, misappropriate or violate any Intellectual Property of any third party in such a manner as would, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither Seller nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any written notice, or to Seller’s Knowledge, any verbal notice or written or verbal claim, asserting that any such infringement, misappropriation or violation is occurring, excluding any claim that has been fully resolved.

To the Knowledge of Seller, no third party is misappropriating, infringing or violating any Transferred Intellectual Property, excluding any such misappropriation, infringement or violation that, singly or in the aggregate, would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

standard forms made available to Buyer prior to the date hereof. Except as set forth on Section 3.12(f)(3) of the Disclosure Letter, the execution, delivery and performance by Seller of this Agreement, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, will not give rise to any right of any third party to terminate or materially modify any of Seller’s or its Subsidiary’s rights or obligations under, any Inbound License Agreement or Outbound License Agreement that is included in the Assumed Contracts.

(g) Except as disclosed on Section 3.12(g)(1) of the Disclosure Letter, all of the Products were (A) developed by employees of Seller within the scope of their employment, (B) developed by independent contractors who have expressly assigned all of their material rights and interest therein to Seller pursuant to written agreements or (C) otherwise acquired by Seller from a third party pursuant to a written agreement in which the ownership rights therein were expressly assigned to Seller.

None of the Products (including the source code of any such Products), as a result of the intermingling, integration, combination or interaction of code owned by Seller or any of its Subsidiaries with any “open source” software licensed under any Open Source License is, in whole or in part, required to be licensed pursuant to the provisions of any Open Source License.

problems that, individually or in the aggregate, would not materially impair the ability of such customers to use a Product.

(k) Each of Seller and its Subsidiaries is in material compliance with all Applicable Laws and with Seller’s own written policies with respect to the privacy of all current customers of the Business and their personally identifiable information.

In the event that either Seller or Buyer shall thereafter make a payment for which it is entitled to reimbursement under this Section 5.10(b), the other Party shall make such reimbursement promptly, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the presentation of a statement setting forth the amount of reimbursement to which the presenting Party is entitled along with such supporting evidence as is reasonably necessary to calculate the amount of reimbursement.

(c) Cooperation. As to the Taxes that are subject to Section 5.10(b) from and after the Closing Date, the Parties hereto agree to furnish or cause to be furnished to one another, upon request, as promptly as practicable, such information and assistance relating to the Transferred Assets and the Business as is reasonably necessary for the filing of all Tax Returns, the preparation for any audit by any taxing authority, and the prosecution or defense of any claim or Legal Action relating to any Tax Return. The Parties hereto shall cooperate with each other in the conduct of any audit or other Legal Action related to Taxes involving the Business.

(d) Responsibility for Payment of Taxes. Subject to the other provisions of Section 5.10, Buyer shall prepare and file (or cause to be prepared and filed) on a timely basis all Tax Returns for all Post-Closing Tax Periods, shall pay all taxes shown to be due on such Tax Returns, and shall indemnify and hold Seller harmless against, from and in respect of all Taxes to the extent exclusively relating to the Business and the Transferred Assets (i) for any taxable year or period commencing after the Closing Date, and (ii) for any taxable period beginning before and ending after the Closing Date, other than Taxes attributable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period or the portion of any Straddle Period attributable to the period up to and including the Closing Date.

(e) Sales and Use Taxes. The sales, use, transfer, recording, value-added and any other similar Taxes arising out of the transfer of the Transferred Assets (the “Sales Tax”) shall be split equally between Seller, on the one hand and the Buyer Parties, on the other hand. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Buyer Parties and Seller shall cooperate fully in minimizing the Sales Tax.

(f) FIRPTA Certificate. At or prior to the Closing, Seller shall deliver to the Buyer Parties a duly executed and acknowledged certificate, in form and substance acceptable to the Buyer Parties and in compliance with the Code and Department of the Treasury regulations,

certifying such facts as to establish that the transactions contemplated hereby are exempt from withholding pursuant to Section 1445 of the Code.

(g) Disputes. Any dispute arising between the Parties related to the matters set forth in this Section 5.10 shall be resolved in accordance with Section 9.10 and the other applicable provisions of this Agreement.

5.11 Accounts Receivable. Following the Closing, Seller shall forward to Buyer, promptly upon receipt thereof, any payments of Accounts Receivable that were outstanding on the Closing Date. Promptly following the Closing, the Parties shall cooperate in advising customers to direct to Buyer or its designee any future payments by such customers.

5.12 Accounts Payable. To the extent that Buyer receives any invoices for accounts payable or statements evidencing amounts owed by Seller to another Person for services performed, goods delivered or otherwise arising from the operation of the Business on or prior to the Closing Date and that is an Excluded Liability, Buyer will promptly deliver such documents to Seller.

5.13 Refunds and Remittances. After the Closing: (i) if Seller receives any refund or other amount that is a Transferred Asset or is otherwise properly due and owing to Buyer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, Seller promptly shall remit, or shall cause to be remitted, such amount to Buyer and (ii) if Buyer receives any refund or other amount that is an Excluded Asset or is otherwise properly due and owing to Seller in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, Buyer promptly shall remit, or shall cause to be remitted, such amount to Seller. Seller authorizes and empowers each of the Buyer Parties on and after the Closing Date to receive and open all mail received by such Buyer Party relating to the Transferred Assets and the Assumed Liabilities, and to deal with the contents of such communications in a reasonably proper manner. The Buyer Parties authorize and empower Seller on and after the Closing Date to receive and open all mail received by Seller relating to the Business, the Transferred Assets and the Assumed Liabilities, and Seller shall promptly deliver to Buyer all mail or other communication (electronic, oral, telephonic, or otherwise) received by Seller after the Closing Date pertaining to the Business, the Transferred Assets and the Assumed Liabilities (and Seller may retain copies thereof where it relates to rights, obligations or Liabilities of Seller). To the extent that any of the Buyer Parties receives any mail or packages addressed to Seller or its Subsidiaries and delivered to such Buyer Party not relating to the Transferred Assets or the Assumed Liabilities, such Buyer Party shall promptly deliver such mail or packages to Seller.

5.14 Bulk Sales Laws. The Parties agree to waive compliance with any provisions of any bulk sales laws in any jurisdiction.

5.15 Employees.

(a) Subject to Buyer’s payment obligations pursuant to Section 2.07(a) in lieu of making Comparable Offers, Buyer shall make offers of employment to each Business Employee to be effective as of the Closing. Such offers of employment shall be upon terms and conditions substantially comparable in the aggregate to those applicable to such Business Employees as of

immediately prior to the Closing Date, including providing for (i) a place of employment (for a period of one year from the Closing Date) within fifty (50) miles of each Business Employee’s place of employment with Seller as of the date hereof (“Comparable Location”), (ii) with respect to Business Employees who are not in sales, base salary or hourly wages, as applicable, for such Business Employee, and bonus opportunities for such Business Employee, that are, in the aggregate, no less favorable than the aggregate of such compensation and opportunities set forth respectively in Section 3.13(a)(xi) and Section 3.13(a)(vi) (or if higher, (xii)) of the Disclosure Letter, and with respect to Business Employees who are in sales, minimum base salary and sales commission opportunities, as mutually agreed upon by the Parties within ten (10) Business Days following the date of this Agreement (based on revenue generated and historic commissions earned by such Business Employee in sales), plus car allowance, if applicable (“Comparable Compensation”), and a title that is substantially equivalent to the title set forth for such Business Employee in Section 3.13(a)(ii) of the Disclosure Letter (“Comparable Title”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, such offers of employment will provide for employee benefits (including equity participation opportunities) that are substantially comparable to the benefits provided by Buyer to its own similarly situated employees. Such offers of employment shall be made pursuant to offer letters substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 5.15(a) (a “Comparable Job Offer Letter”). For the avoidance of doubt, it is agreed by the Parties that the delivery by Buyer of a signed Comparable Job Offer Letter to a Business Employee shall be deemed an offer of employment to such Business Employee upon terms and conditions substantially comparable in the aggregate to those applicable to such Business Employee as of immediately prior to the Closing Date, if such letter provides for Comparable Location, Comparable Compensation and Comparable Title for such Business Employee and such employee is entitled to employee benefits (including equity participation opportunities) that are substantially comparable to the benefits provided by Buyer to its own similarly situated employees. Employment offered to the Business Employees by Buyer will be “at will” and may be terminated by Buyer or by the employee at any time, with or without cause or advance notice (subject to any written agreements to the contrary made between Buyer and the employee). Buyer shall be solely responsible for any and all Liabilities with respect to the employment, or termination of employment, of the Transferred Employees following the Closing Date. Seller shall take all reasonable steps to assist the Buyer Parties in communicating with each of the Business Employees prior to the Closing Date. Effective as of the Closing, Seller shall waive any covenants not to compete, confidentiality provisions or other similar restrictions that may be applicable to Business Employees but only to the extent such covenants, provisions or restrictions relate to the Business and would prohibit the Business Employees from accepting employment with Buyer or its Affiliates or continuing in such employment at all without violating any such covenants, provisions or restrictions; provided, however, Seller shall not waive any confidentiality provisions or other similar restrictions to the extent applicable to the Excluded Assets or Excluded Liabilities, simply as a result of becoming a Transferred Employee. Seller shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, engage in any activity knowingly intended to discourage any Business Employee from accepting the offer of employment from Buyer or any of its Affiliates, and Seller shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, permit any Business Employee to accept employment with any business of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries (other than the Business) after the date hereof and prior to the Closing.

(b) Subject to Section 5.15(e), on and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall provide to each Transferred Employee, for at least a one-year period starting on the Closing Date, Comparable Compensation for such Transferred Employee, and severance benefits and eligibility for severance benefits that are comparable to the severance benefits and eligibility for severance benefits set forth in the Seller Severance Plan. Seller will cooperate with Buyer in assessing whether a particular employment offer constitutes a Comparable Offer for purposes of this Agreement, without limiting Seller’s authority to make all severance determinations under its Employee Plans and the WARN Act and other Applicable Law. Buyer shall provide to the Transferred Employees employee benefits (including equity participation opportunities) that are substantially similar to the benefits provided by Buyer to its own similarly situated employees. Buyer shall cause Transferred Employees to be credited with their years of service with Seller (or any predecessor entity) for purposes of eligibility and vesting under any employee benefit or fringe benefit plan, program or arrangement maintained or contributed to by Buyer (including, but not limited to, pension or retirement benefits, profit sharing, 401(k), or other benefits but excluding calculation of benefits under any defined benefit formula or equity compensation plan) to the same extent recognized by Seller immediately prior to the Closing Date, and for purposes of determining the amount of benefits under any sick leave, vacation or severance plan, program or arrangement (excluding calculation of benefits under any defined benefit formula) on a going-forward basis. For purposes of coverage under any group health plan after the Closing Date, Buyer shall waive any waiting period and preexisting condition limitations applicable to Transferred Employees under such group health plan to the extent that a Transferred Employee’s condition would not have operated as a preexisting condition limitation under any applicable group health plan of Seller prior to the Closing, and Buyer will take all commercially reasonable actions to ensure that Transferred Employees are given full credit for all pre-Closing co-payments and payments of deductibles made by them under any group health plan for the plan year of Buyer that includes the Closing Date.

(c) Seller will pay on the Closing Date or on such later date as Seller deems appropriate (provided that Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make all such payments within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date), to each Transferred Employee an amount equal to (A) each Transferred Employee’s projected bonus for the fiscal year ending July 31, 2007 calculated through the Closing Date, subject to such Transferred Employee executing appropriate documentation, (B) any earned but unpaid commissions under all Employee Plans as of the Closing Date and (C) all accrued but unused vacation.

(d) Seller will cooperate with Buyer to facilitate the logistics of Buyer’s communication with Business Employees for the purposes of communicating post-Closing employment offers and for discussing Business Employees’ employment after the Closing with the Buyer Parties or its Affiliates, including by making Business Employees available from time to time to meet with Buyer’s representatives, subject to reasonable limits to minimize disruption to the Business and to the right of Seller to advance notice and an opportunity to attend and participate in all such meetings.

(e) Nothing in this Section 5.15, whether express or implied, shall be construed (i) to give any Person other than the Parties to this Agreement any legal or equitable right or remedy under or with respect to this Agreement or any provision of this Agreement, (ii) to give to

any Person any legal or equitable right to continued employment or (iii) to constitute an amendment to or modification of any Employee Plan or Employee Agreement.

(f) Within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, Seller shall (i) deliver to Buyer a report indicating those Business Employees with respect to which Buyer paid to Seller a portion of the Aggregate Severance Amount and to whom Seller has not actually paid severance benefits prior to such date (the portion of the Aggregate Severance Amount not so paid to such Business Employees, the “Unpaid Severance Amount”), and (ii) pay to Buyer the Unpaid Severance Amount.

(g) Seller agrees to provide any required notice under the WARN Act and any similar Applicable Law, and otherwise to comply with any such statute with respect to any “plant closing” or “mass layoff” (as defined in the WARN Act) or group termination or similar event affecting Business Employees which may result from Seller’s termination of the employment of any Business Employees who do not receive Comparable Offers. Buyer agrees to provide any required notice under the WARN Act and any similar Applicable Law, and otherwise to comply with any such statute with respect to any “plant closing” or “mass layoff” (as defined in the WARN Act) or group termination or similar event affecting Transferred Employees which may result from the termination of such Transferred Employees by Buyer after the Closing Date. During the ninety (90) days following the Closing Date, each of Seller and Buyer shall promptly provide notice to the other Party of any actions which might constitute a “plant closing” or “mass layoff” (as defined in the WARN Act) or group termination or similar event affecting Business Employees resulting from the termination of such Business Employees by Seller or Buyer, as applicable, after the Closing Date.

5.16 Intracompany Arrangements. All intracompany (payables and receivables) accounts between the Business, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand, shall be cancelled without any consideration or further liability to any party and without the need for any further documentation, immediately prior to the Closing.

5.17 Non-Competition. Seller agrees that for a period of two (2) years commencing on the Closing Date, Seller will not, and will cause its Subsidiaries not to, without the express written approval of a Buyer Party, (x) engage, directly or indirectly, in a Competing Business, (y) acquire beneficial ownership of more than ten percent (10%) of the outstanding equity of any Business Competitor or (z) solicit any customers of the Business as of the Closing Date with respect to the sale or provision to such customers of Covered Software specifically designed for or marketed specifically or predominantly to distribution businesses in the Hard Goods Vertical. For purposes of this Section 5.17: “Business Competitor” shall mean any Person that derived more than twenty-five percent (25%) of its consolidated revenues or net income from a Competing Business during the four fiscal quarters prior to Seller’s or its Subsidiaries’ entering into an agreement providing for the acquisition of beneficial ownership in such Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Seller nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be precluded from acquiring and holding (i) a beneficial ownership interest of no more than ten percent (10%) of the equity of any other Person; (ii) any direct or indirect equity or other ownership or participation interest representing a majority of the voting securities or partnership interests, or carrying the right to designate a majority of the board of directors or other governing body, of any Person if at the

time of the acquisition thereof such Person’s Competing Business accounts for less than twenty-five percent (25%) of each Relevant Person’s (as defined below) consolidated revenues and less than twenty-five percent (25%) of each Relevant Person’s consolidated net income, during the most recent calendar quarter preceding the acquisition, provided that the Competing Business is divested or ceases to be conducted not later than one year after such acquisition; and (iii) any equity or other ownership or participation interest representing less than a majority of the voting securities or partnership interests (without any right to designate a majority of the directors or other governing body) of any entity or business that has as a part of its operations any Competing Business, provided that during the most recent calendar quarter preceding the acquisition of such interest, such Competing Business accounts for less than twenty-five percent (25%) of each Relevant Person’s consolidated revenues and less than twenty-five percent (25%) of each Relevant Person’s consolidated net income during the most recent calendar quarter. For purposes hereof, “Relevant Person” means (x) the Person in whom Seller or its Subsidiary acquires an equity or other ownership or participation in interest and (y) the Person (if any) that is not a Subsidiary of any other Person and with respect to which the entity identified in clause (x) is a Subsidiary. Seller acknowledges that Buyer would not enter into this Agreement without the protections provided in this Section 5.17 and agrees that the scope and duration of the restrictions set forth in this Section 5.17 are reasonable. If any court of competent jurisdiction declares any provision of this Section 5.17 invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement shall remain fully enforceable. To the extent that any court concludes that any provision of this Section 5.17 is void or voidable, the court shall reform such provision to render the provision enforceable, but only to the extent necessary to render the provision enforceable and only in view of the Parties’ express desire that Buyer be protected to the greatest extent possible under Applicable Law from improper competition. The Parties acknowledge that money damages would be an inadequate remedy for any such breach of this Section 5.17. Therefore, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Section 5.17, Buyer or its respective successors or assigns may, in addition to other rights or remedies existing in their favor, apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for specific performance or other injunctive relief in order to enforce, or prevent any violation of, the provisions of this Section 5.17 without posting a bond or other security. Without limiting the rights of the Buyer Parties to seek specific performance or other injunctive relief at any time, to the extent Buyer believes that Seller is in breach of Section 5.17, Buyer will provide written notice to Seller of the operations of Seller that Buyer believes constitute a violation of Section 5.17 and a period of 30 days following receipt of such notice to resolve such alleged breach (“Resolution Period”). Such notice shall specify in reasonable detail the basis for such alleged breach. The senior management of the Parties, including each Party’s legal and business representatives, shall meet and attempt in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute during the Resolution Period. If the parties are unable to resolve their dispute within the Resolution Period, the Buyer Parties shall be entitled to demand arbitration pursuant to Section 9.10. The activities of Seller pursuant to and permitted by any other Acquisition Documents or other agreement between the parties shall not constitute Competing Business nor otherwise violate the covenants and agreements of the parties in this Section 5.17.

5.18 Non-Solicitation of Employees and Consultants.

(a) Seller agrees that for a period of two (2) years from and after the Closing Date it and each of its Subsidiaries shall not, without the prior written consent of Buyer, directly or indirectly, solicit to hire any Transferred Employee. Seller agrees that for a period of one (1) year from and after the Closing Date, it and each of its Subsidiaries shall not, without the prior written consent of Buyer, hire any Business Employee who has received a Comparable Offer from any of the Buyer Parties or their Subsidiaries.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the restrictions set forth in Section 5.18(a) shall not apply to solicitations made through bona fide public advertisements for employment placed by Seller or its representatives or the retention of search firms to assist in filling open job requisitions provided that such activities are not specifically targeted at the Business Employees who have received a Comparable Offer from any of the Buyer Parties or their Subsidiaries.

5.19 Privacy Notification. Promptly after the Closing Date, the Buyer Parties or Seller will send a communication, the form and content of which will be agreed by the Parties, to all customers of the Business notifying them of the consummation of the sale of the Transferred Assets and Assumed Liabilities to Buyer. In addition, if Buyer intends to use customer information for purposes other than those necessary to provide services to such customers in accordance with the Assumed Contracts (e.g., marketing) (collectively, “Secondary Purposes”), the Buyer Parties shall (i) notify the customer (which notification may be included in an initial communication from Parent), and (ii) provide such customer with notice of Parent’s privacy policy, which policy shall include a description of how Parent uses or intends to use the customer information, including information regarding Parent’s practices with respect to sharing and disclosure of customer information with or to third parties. Such customer shall have the opportunity to opt out of (x) any further use of such customer’s information for Secondary Purposes and (y) any sharing or disclosure of such customer’s information with any third parties for Secondary Purposes. The communication will be sent with sufficient advance notice to enable the customer to opt out prior to any sharing or disclosure with or to any third parties of the customer’s information for Secondary Purposes. Nothing in this Section 5.19 shall prohibit the Buyer Parties from using or disclosing customer information required by legal requirements.

5.20 Financing.

(a) Seller Financing Assistance. Seller shall provide such reasonable cooperation in connection with the arrangement of the Debt Financing and any Alternative Financing (provided that the duties of Seller to cooperate with respect to any Alternative Financing shall not exceed those with respect to the Debt Financing) as may be reasonably requested by any of the Buyer Parties, including (i) reasonable participation in financing sources’ due diligence investigation in respect of the Business, the Transferred Assets and the Assumed Liabilities (which shall be limited to giving such financing sources access to the virtual due diligence data room to which Parent has access), (ii) furnishing the Buyer Parties and the financing sources with such unaudited financial and other material information regarding the Business, the Transferred Assets and the Assumed Liabilities as may be reasonably requested by the Buyer Parties as being necessary to consummate the Debt Financing, and (iii) using reasonable efforts to assist the Buyer Parties to satisfy all conditions precedent to the funding sources’ funding obligation set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter, to the extent the satisfaction of such conditions requires actions by, or

cooperation of, the Seller or its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that none of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to (A) pay any commitment or other fee or incur any liability in connection with the Debt Financing or (B) incur any other out-of-pocket cost or expense in connection with any action requested to be taken by Seller under this Section 5.20 that is not promptly reimbursed by the Buyer Parties prior to the Closing; and provided further that such requested cooperation does not unreasonably interfere with the ongoing operations of Seller and its Subsidiaries. Parent shall, promptly upon request by Seller, reimburse Seller for all out-of-pocket costs incurred by Seller or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with such cooperation and the Buyer Parties shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller from and against any and all losses or damages suffered or incurred by it in connection with the arrangement of the Debt Financing and any information utilized in connection therewith.

(b) Buyer Parties. From the date of this Agreement until the Closing Date, the Buyer Parties shall take all actions reasonably necessary to consummate the Debt Financing, and/or such other financing as the Buyer Parties may seek to obtain for the purpose of fulfilling their obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (an “Alternative Financing”) and shall not take any actions, other than communications with respect to the financial condition or results of operations of the Business, which could reasonably be expected (i) to cause Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas or Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. to withdraw the Debt Commitment Letter or (ii) to give rise to the failure of the conditions to the Debt Financing or any Alternative Financing.

5.21 Delivery of Audited Financial Statements. Seller shall deliver to Buyer as promptly as practicable but in no event later than July 31, 2007: the balance sheets of the Business as of July 31, 2005 and July 31, 2006, and the related statements of operations, invested equity and cash flows of the Business for the 12-month periods then-ended, respectively, audited by Ernst & Young (the “Audited Financial Statements”) and such audited financial statements shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods covered.

All covenants and agreements of the Parties set forth in this Agreement to be performed prior to the Closing, shall expire on the date that is twelve (12) months after the Closing Date and all covenants and agreements of the Parties set forth in this Agreement to be performed after the Closing Date shall survive pursuant to the terms set forth therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Indemnitor shall have any liability whatsoever with respect to any such representations, warranties or covenants unless a Notice of Claim based on such representation, warranty or covenant shall have been delivered to the Indemnitor prior to the expiration of the survival period for such representation, warranty or covenant. If a Notice of Claim is properly asserted in writing prior to the expiration of the representation, warranty or covenant that is the basis of such claim, then such representation, warranty or covenant shall survive beyond the applicable survival date set forth above, but only for the purposes of the resolution of such claim.

7.02 Indemnification.

(a) Indemnification Provisions for Buyer. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, from and after the Closing Date, Buyer and its Affiliates, officers, directors, stockholders, representatives and agents (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnitees”) shall be indemnified and held harmless by Seller from and against and in respect of any and all Losses incurred by any Buyer Indemnitee resulting from:

(i) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty made by Seller in this Agreement or any misrepresentation in the certificate delivered to Buyer pursuant to Section 6.01(h);

(ii) any breach of any covenant or obligation of Seller contained in this Agreement; and

(iii) any Excluded Liability.

(b) Indemnification Provisions for Seller. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, from and after the Closing Date, Seller and its Affiliates, officers, directors, stockholders, representatives and agents (collectively, the “Seller Indemnitees”) shall be indemnified and held harmless by each of the Buyer Parties, jointly and severally, from and against and in respect of any and all Losses incurred by any Seller Indemnitee, resulting from:

(i) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty made by a Buyer Party in this Agreement or any misrepresentation in the certificate delivered to Seller pursuant to Section 6.02(g);

(ii) any breach of any covenant or obligation of a Buyer Party contained in this Agreement;

(iii) any Assumed Liability; and

(iv) the matters identified in Section 7.02(b)(iv) of the Disclosure Letter.

For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Indemnitee” shall mean either Buyer Indemnitee or a Seller Indemnitee, as the case may be, and the term “Indemnitor” shall mean either the Buyer Parties or Seller, as the case may be.

(c) No Buyer Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification for any Losses covered by Section 7.02(a)(i) and (ii) until the aggregate amount of all such Losses of the Buyer Indemnitees shall exceed $1,000,000 (the “Deductible”), at which time all such Losses incurred in excess of the Deductible shall be subject to indemnification by the Seller hereunder. The Deductible shall not apply to Losses incurred pursuant to any breach by Seller of a Fundamental Representation or any breach by Seller of its covenants and obligations set forth in Section 5.17.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the maximum aggregate liability of Seller to Buyer Indemnitees for any Losses covered by Section 7.02(a)(i) and (ii) shall be limited to $10,000,000 (the “Cap”). The Cap shall not apply to Losses covered by Section 7.02(a)(iii), Losses that result from fraud or Losses incurred pursuant to any breach by Seller of a Title Representation or a Fundamental Representation; provided, however, that Seller’s maximum aggregate liability for Losses incurred pursuant to any breach by Seller of a Title Representation shall be limited to an amount equal to (x) $20,000,000, minus (y) any and all other Losses recovered by Buyer Indemnitees from Seller pursuant to this Article VII (other than Losses covered by Section 7.02(a)(iii)) (such result being the “Title Cap”); and provided, further, that Seller’s maximum aggregate liability for all indemnification claims hereunder shall not exceed the Purchase Price. For the avoidance of doubt, claims recovered up to the Cap, whether or not related to a Title Representation, shall be counted toward exhaustion of the Title Cap for claims related to a Title Representation, and claims recovered in respect of a Title Representation shall be counted toward exhaustion of the Cap (such that one or more Title Representation claims that together exceed the Cap would result in no indemnification being available for any other claims that may arise and that are subject to the Cap).

(e) For purposes of this Agreement, the term, “Losses” means any and all judgments, settlements, claims, liabilities, losses, damages (excluding indirect, incidental, consequential, punitive, special or exemplary damages except as specifically set forth in Section 7.07), interest, fines, penalties, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal, accounting and other costs and expenses). Notwithstanding the above, Losses shall not include expenses incurred in connection with investigations unless a claim is made by a third party against the Indemnitee.

(f) The amount of any Losses otherwise recoverable under this Section 7.02 shall be reduced by any amounts that the Indemnitees actually receive (net of costs of collection and increases in premiums demonstrably related to the subject matter of the claim) under insurance policies, the Parties hereby acknowledging and agreeing that prior to asserting any Indemnification Claim, the Indemnitee must first seek reimbursement for any and all Losses from any applicable insurance coverage (and that any compensation provided under this Agreement is not to be deemed insurance for any purpose); provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall give rise by itself to an obligation by any Party to carry any insurance coverage, other than as may be required by the terms of this Agreement.

(g) For purposes of the indemnification provided in this Section 7.02 only, in determining whether a breach of any representation or warranty in this Agreement has occurred (other than determining whether a breach of the representations and warranties set forth in the second sentence of Section 3.12(d) has occurred) and the amount of any Losses arising out of, relating to or resulting from any such breach, the representations and warranties of Seller and the Buyer Parties, as the case may be, shall be considered without giving effect to any limitation or qualifications as to “materiality,” “Material Adverse Effect” or any other derivative of the word “material”.

7.03 Manner of Indemnification.

(a) Each indemnification claim shall be made only in accordance with this Article VII.

(b) If an Indemnitee wishes to make a claim for Losses under Article VII of this Agreement, Indemnitee shall deliver a written notice (a “Notice of Claim”) to the applicable Indemnitor promptly after becoming aware of the facts giving rise to such claim. The Notice of Claim shall state in reasonable detail (i) to the extent reasonably practicable, the estimated Losses incurred or suffered (which amount may be the amount of Losses claimed by a third party and shall not limit the Losses to be indemnified) and (ii) the facts, circumstances or events giving rise to the alleged Losses based on the Indemnified Party’s good faith belief thereof, including the identity and address of any third-party claimant, if any, (to the extent reasonably available to the Indemnified Party) and copies of any formal demand or complaint, if any. No delay or failure on the part of the Indemnitee to so notify the Indemnitor shall relieve the Indemnitor of any liability or obligation hereunder except to the extent Indemnitor is prejudiced by such failure.

7.04 Procedures for Indemnification – Third-Party Actions.

(a) If an Indemnitee becomes aware of a claim of a third party (including for all purposes of this Section 7.04, any Governmental Authority) (a “Third Party Action”) that will result in a claim by it against Indemnitor, Indemnitee shall notify Indemnitor of such claim as promptly as practicable by delivery of a Notice of Claim in the form required by Section 7.03(b). Indemnitor shall have the right to assume and conduct the defense of such claim by providing written notice thereof to the Indemnitee within 20 Business Days following receipt of the Notice of Claim; provided, however, that Indemnitor may not assume control of the defense of any Third Party Action (x) involving criminal liability of the Indemnitee or (y) if the aggregate potential Losses in respect of such claim and all claims previously made by the Indemnitor exceed the limits on indemnification set forth in Section 7.02(d). If the Indemnitor assumes the defense of a Third Party Action, it shall conduct such defense in a commercially reasonable manner, and to the extent it fails to do so the Indemnitee shall have the right to elect to assume such defense. No compromise or settlement of such Third Party Action may be effected by the Indemnitor without the Indemnitee’s consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), unless: (a) there is no finding or admission of any violation of any Applicable Law or the rights of any other Person by any Indemnitee; (b) the sole relief is monetary damages that Indemnitor shall have paid or caused to be paid in full; and (c) the Indemnitee is unconditionally released from any liability arising from such Third Party Action. If Indemnitor elects to control the defense of a

Third Party Action in accordance with the provisions hereof, Indemnitee shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) the defense of such Third Party Action, with its own counsel and at its own expense. Indemnitee shall cooperate reasonably with Indemnitor (at the expense of Indemnitor) in the defense of such Third Party Action. If Indemnitor does not assume the defense of such Third Party Action in accordance with the provisions hereof, Indemnitee may defend such Third Party Action in a commercially reasonable manner and may settle such Third Party Action; provided, however, that no compromise or settlement of such Third Party Action may be effected by the Indemnitee without the Indemnitor’s consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), unless: (a) there is no finding or admission of any violation of any Applicable Law or the rights of any other Person by any Indemnitor; (b) the sole relief is monetary damages that Indemnitee shall have paid or caused to be paid in full; and (c) the Indemnitor is unconditionally released from any liability arising from such Third Party Action.

(b) The Party controlling the defense of such Third Party Action (the “Controlling Party”) shall keep the non-Controlling Party reasonably advised of the status of such Third Party Action and the defense thereof and shall consider in good faith recommendations made by the non-Controlling Party with respect thereto. The non-Controlling Party shall furnish the Controlling Party with such information as it may have with respect to such Third Party Action (including copies of any summons, complaint or other pleading which may have been served on such Party and any written claim, demand, invoice, billing or other document evidencing or asserting the same) and shall otherwise reasonably cooperate with and assist the Controlling Party in the defense of such Third Party Action.

(c) The fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnitee with respect to a Third Party Action shall be considered Losses for purposes of this Agreement if (i) the Indemnitee controls the defense of such Third Party Action pursuant to the terms of this Section 7.04 or (ii) the Indemnitor assumes control of such defense and in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the Indemnitee, the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee have conflicting interests or different defenses available with respect to such Third Party Action; provided that this shall apply only to one counsel to the Indemnitee.

7.05 Procedure for Indemnification – Other Claims. Following receipt by an Indemnitor of a Notice of Claim that does not relate to a Third Party Action, the Parties’ legal and business representatives shall promptly meet to agree on the rights of the respective Parties with respect to each of such claims. If the Parties should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both Parties and amounts agreed upon shall be promptly paid. Any dispute between the Parties which is not resolved within 30 Business Days following receipt of the Notice of Claim shall be resolved in accordance with Section 9.10 and the other applicable provisions of this Agreement.

7.06 Exclusive Remedy. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, except with respect to claims of fraud, the provisions of this Article VII shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for monetary damages of the Indemnitees from and after the Closing Date for any Losses arising under this Agreement or relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including claims of breach of any representation, warranty or covenant in this

Agreement; provided, however, that the foregoing clause of this sentence shall not be deemed a waiver by any Party of any right to specific performance or injunctive relief.

7.07 Damages. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement or any other Acquisition Document, no Party (or its Affiliates) shall, in any event, be liable to the other Party (or its Affiliates) for any consequential, punitive, special, indirect or exemplary damages, including loss of revenue or income, cost of capital, or loss of business reputation or opportunity relating to the breach or alleged breach of this Agreement; provided that Losses arising from Third Party Actions that include any of the foregoing types of damages shall not be limited by this Section 7.07.

7.08 Effect on Purchase Price. The Parties agree that any indemnification payment made pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated for Tax purposes as an adjustment to the Purchase Price, unless otherwise required by Applicable Law.

ARTICLE VIII

(g) by any Party if the waiting period (or any extension thereof) applicable to the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby under the HSR Act shall not have expired or been terminated prior to the Termination Date; or

(h) by any Party, if any Applicable Law shall be enacted or become applicable that makes the transactions contemplated hereby or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement illegal or otherwise prohibited, or if any judgment, injunction, order or decree enjoining either Party hereto from consummating the transactions contemplated hereby is entered, and such judgment, injunction, order or decree shall become final and nonappealable.

The Party desiring to terminate this Agreement pursuant to clauses (b) through (h) shall deliver to the other Parties a written notice stating that such Party is terminating the Agreement and setting forth a brief description of the basis on which such Party is terminating this Agreement.

9.11 Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) With respect to disputes which are not subject to arbitration under Section 9.10, each of the Parties irrevocably agrees that any Legal Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect hereof brought by any other Party or its successors or assigns may be brought and determined in any California State or federal court sitting in Santa ▇▇▇▇▇ County, California (or, if such court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, in any appropriate California or federal court), and each of the Parties hereby

irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts for itself and with respect to its property, generally and unconditionally, with regard to any such Legal Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (and agrees not to commence any Legal Action relating thereto except in such courts). Each of the Parties further agrees to accept service of process in any manner permitted by such courts. Each of the Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion or as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any Legal Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, (a) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts for any reason other than the failure lawfully to serve process, (b) that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (c) to the fullest extent permitted by law, that (i) the Legal Action in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (ii) the venue of such Legal Action is improper or (iii) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts.

(b) EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (i) 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, (ii) EACH SUCH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (iii) EACH SUCH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (iv) EACH SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.11.

9.12 Meaning of Certain Phrases. Whenever in this Agreement the word “include” or “including” is used, it shall be deemed to mean “include, without limitation” or “including, without limitation,” as the case may be, and the language following “include” or “including” shall not be deemed to set forth an exhaustive list. Whenever in this Agreement the term “ordinary course” and “ordinary course of business” is used, it shall be deemed to mean the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice.

9.13 Disclosure Letter. The disclosure of any information in any section of the Disclosure Letter shall be deemed to constitute the disclosure of such information in all other sections of the Disclosure Letter where the applicability of such disclosure to such sections is readily apparent.

9.14 Specific Performance. The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the failure of any Party to perform its agreements and covenants hereunder, including its failure to take

all actions as are necessary on its part to the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein, may cause irreparable injury to the other Parties, for which damages, even if available, may not be an adequate remedy. Accordingly, each Party hereby consents to the issuance of injunctive relief by any court of competent jurisdiction to compel performance of such Party’s obligations and to the granting by any court of the remedy of specific performance of its obligations hereunder, this being in addition to any other remedy to which a Party is entitled at law or in equity.

9.15 No Presumption Against Drafting Party. Each Party acknowledges that each Party to this Agreement has been represented by counsel in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Accordingly, any rule of law or any legal decision that would require interpretation of any claimed ambiguities in this Agreement against the drafting Party has no application and is expressly waived.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.

EXHIBIT 1.01C

FORM OF

TRANSITION SERVICES AGREEMENT

This Transition Services Agreement (together with Annexes A and B hereto the “TS Agreement”), dated as of the Closing Date, ___ 2007, is by and between Intuit Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Seller”), and Activant Solutions Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”) and Greenland Holding Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Buyer” and, together with Parent, the “Buyer Parties”). The Seller and the Buyer Parties are sometimes referred to as the “Parties” and each individually as a “Party”.

W I T N E S S E T H :

WHEREAS, Seller, Parent and Buyer have entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) dated as of the date hereof (the “Signing Date”), pursuant to which, among other things, Buyer will acquire all of the Transferred Assets (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement) and assume certain liabilities, all on the terms and conditions set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement; and to induce Buyer to enter into the Asset Purchase Agreement, Seller has agreed to continue to provide and to cause its Subsidiaries to continue to provide to the Buyer Parties and their respective subsidiaries and/or assigns under the Asset Purchase Agreement certain transition services which are necessary on a temporary basis for the continuation of the Business by Buyer, which services are of the type provided by Seller and its Subsidiaries in respect of the Business and the Transferred Assets during the year preceding the date of this TS Agreement and of a quality at least as good as that previously provided by Seller and its Subsidiaries during such period, at costs consistent with the terms of this TS Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements of the Parties contained herein, the Parties agree as follows:

1. Services Provided.

(a) During the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending in accordance with the terms of Section 12 (a) below (the “Transition Period”), and subject to the terms of this TS Agreement, Seller shall provide to the Buyer Parties, or at Seller’s option shall cause one or more of its Affiliates or, subject to Buyer’s consent, a third party, to provide to the Buyer Parties and/or their subsidiaries or assigns, certain services and functions described in Annex A to this TS Agreement (each a “Transition Service” and collectively, the “Transition Services”). If any additional services are required, Seller and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith for the provision of any such additional services similar in nature to the Transition Services that the Parties reasonably require for an orderly transition following the Closing Date (“Additional Services”), and Annex A shall be amended and such Additional Services shall be deemed to be Transition Services for purposes of this TS Agreement.

(b) The Buyer Parties shall make a commercially reasonable and good faith effort to assume performance of all of the Transition Services as soon as practicable and for each

Transition Service on or prior to the target termination date specified for such Transition Services in Annex A.

(c) It is assumed that all Transition Services provided hereunder will be terminated on or before the Termination Date. Seller shall be under no obligation to provide any Services to the Buyer Parties after the Termination Date, except to the extent agreed in writing by Seller and the Buyer Parties.

(d) Between the date hereof and thirty (30) days after the Closing, Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) identify each Transition Service that in Seller’s reasonable discretion, Seller cannot provide because such provision would breach the terms of any existing Contract between Seller and any third party and (ii) if appropriate, assist the Buyer Parties in obtaining the benefits of any such Contract (including assisting the Buyer in obtaining any third party consents necessary for the performance of the Transition Services) or obtaining replacement or substitute agreements that would permit Seller to lawfully perform each such Transition Service. If Seller is still unable to provide such Transition Services, the Parties will negotiate in good faith to determine alternate Transition Services to replace such Transition Service.

2. Fees.

(a) Fees. Buyer shall pay the fee specified in Annex A (each a “Fee” and collectively, the “Fees”) for each Transition Service in accordance with this Section 2. The fees shall also include as applicable (for the avoidance of doubt, it is understood that none of the following fees shall include Seller overhead):

(i) any additional or increased out-of-pocket third party fees, direct or indirect costs or expenses incurred by Seller in connection with providing a Transition Service that result from a change in either Party’s business operations, infrastructure or conduct of business, provided that Seller notifies Buyer at least ten (10) business days in advance of the amount of any such increase;

(ii) any additional or increased out-of-pocket third party fees, direct or indirect costs or expenses (“Additional Fees”) incurred by Seller in connection with providing a Transition Service that results from an amendment to or modification of a Contract; provided, however, Seller shall notify Buyer at least ten (10) business days prior to any such amendments or modifications; and

(iii) all applicable federal, state and local stamp, sales, use, privilege, service or excise taxes paid or payable by Seller in connection with providing the Transition Services.

(b) Fees for Additional Services. If the Parties negotiate any Additional Services pursuant to Section 1(a) of this TS Agreement, then the Parties shall also negotiate in good faith the fees to be paid for such Additional Services (it being understood that in no event shall such fees exceed Seller’s out-of-pocket cost of providing such Additional Services, together with any of the other fees set forth in Section 2(a)). Upon reaching an agreement on such fees and prior to any Additional Services being rendered by Seller, the parties shall amend Annex A

to reflect the agreed upon fees and such fees shall be deemed to be “Fees” for purposes of this TS Agreement.

(c) Payment. No later than fifteen (15) days after the end of each calendar month, Seller will deliver to Buyer a detailed invoice setting forth the Fee charged for each Transition Service. Payments shall be due and payable within forty-five (45) days after receipt of each such invoice; provided, however, if in the course of providing any Transition Services, Seller is required by a third party to make a payment in advance of the services rendered by such third party, Buyer shall pay the applicable amount to Seller on or before the date Seller must make the payment; provided Seller provides to Buyer at least five (5) days prior written notice of such payment date.

(d) Audit Rights. The Buyer Parties shall have the right, at reasonable times and on reasonable notice, to audit the books and records of Seller solely with respect to the Fees and to ensure compliance with this TS Agreement for a period of one (1) year after the termination of this TS Agreement. Such audits may be performed by the employees, independent accounting firm or other designated representative of the Buyer Parties (including internal auditing personnel) at its sole cost and expense. Seller shall, at the Buyer Parties’ expense, fully cooperate with the Buyer Parties’ representatives to accomplish the audit as expeditiously as possible.

(e) Books and Records. Each Party shall maintain all relevant books and records in connection with the provision of the Transition Services for a period of one (1) year after the termination of this TS Agreement. Upon reasonable notice from the other Party each Party shall make available for inspection and copy by such other Party’s agents such information, books and records during reasonable business hours.

3. Representatives. Seller and Buyer each shall (i) designate an appropriate point of contact for all questions and issues relating to the Transition Services during the term of this TS Agreement (“Transition Managers”). The Transition Manager for Seller will be ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, and the Transition Manager for Buyer will be ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. Except in the case of death, disability, sudden termination or resignation of an existing Transition Manager, prior to replacing a Transition Manager, Seller will secure a replacement and use reasonable efforts to ensure such replacement works with the departing Transition Manager for a reasonable period of time to ensure an adequate knowledge transfer. Seller will use reasonable efforts to ensure any replacement Seller Transition Manager shall have a comparable level of authority and responsibility and experience relating to the Transition Services as the Transition Manager being replaced.

4. Performance Standard. Seller shall maintain sufficient resources to perform its obligations hereunder. In performing the Transition Services, Seller and its Subsidiaries shall provide, or ensure that any third party will provide, at least the same level of service and use at least the same degree of care as its personnel provided and used in providing the Transition Services during the one (1) year period prior to the Signing Date (including using its reasonable efforts to provide the Transition Services using the same employees that have provided such Transition Services on behalf of the Business prior to the Signing Date, and if such employees are not available, to assign other qualified employees to provide the Transition Services), and shall exercise at least the same care and skill as it exercises in performing similar services for

itself, unless Seller and Buyer mutually agree to a different level of service. In providing the Transition Services, Seller may, with Buyer’s prior written consent, employ the services of third parties to the extent that such third party services (i) were routinely utilized prior to the Closing Date to provide such services to Seller or (ii) are reasonably necessary to the efficient performance of any such Transition Services. Such third parties shall be subject to the same confidentiality obligations as Seller. All Transition Services shall be performed in substantial compliance with Applicable Law.

5. Master Agreements. With respect to the Master Agreements set forth on Annex B to this TS Agreement, (i) Seller will take all commercially reasonable action necessary so that the services under the Master Agreements continue to be available to Buyer during the Transition Period on similar terms as they were provided immediately prior to the Closing Date, and (ii) Seller will provide Buyer with an introduction to the relevant contact persons at each of the respective Master Agreements providers for purposes of establishing a business arrangement between each such provider and Buyer.

6. Security. During the Transition Period, the Buyer Parties shall be given access to Seller’s information technology infrastructure for applications. Said access shall be through secured controlled processes determined by Seller in consultation with Buyer. Those employees of the Buyer Parties and Seller having access to such infrastructure and applications and other shared systems may be required by Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, to enter into a customary non-disclosure agreement in connection with, and as a condition to, such access. Seller shall not transfer to the Buyer Parties, and the Buyer Parties shall have no rights in or access to, application software/systems source code associated with shared systems through which Seller is providing Transition Services to the Buyer Parties hereunder. The Buyer Parties shall not, through reverse engineering or any other technique or means attempt to access such source code and will use the application software/systems only for their intended use.

7. Intellectual Property. This TS Agreement and the performance of the Transition Services hereunder will not affect the ownership of any property or Intellectual Property allocated in the Asset Purchase Agreement. Neither Party will gain, by virtue of this TS Agreement or the Transition Services hereunder, by implication or otherwise, any rights of ownership of any property or Intellectual Property owned by the other.

8. Force Majeure; Reduction of Services. (a) Neither Party shall be liable for any loss or damage whatsoever arising out of any delay or failure in the performance of its obligations pursuant to this TS Agreement to the extent such delay or failure results from events beyond the control of that Party, including but not limited to acts of God, acts or regulations of any Governmental Entity, war, riots, insurrection or other hostilities, accident, fire, flood, strikes, lockouts, industrial disputes or shortages of fuel. The Party claiming relief hereunder will notify the other Party in writing of the event causing non-performance. Neither Party shall be entitled to terminate this TS Agreement in respect of any such delay or failure resulting from any such event; provided however that such Party shall resume performance whenever such causes are removed.

9. Representations and Warranties. Seller represents and warrants that it will perform the Transition Services in a professional and workmanlike manner. Upon Buyer’s written request, Seller shall pass through benefits of any express warranties received from third parties relating to the Transition Services, and shall (at Buyer’s expense) assist Buyer with any warranty claims related thereto.

10. Limitation on Liability.

(a) Except as provided in Section 9 above, all Transition Services will be provided without representation or warranty of any kind and Seller shall not have any liability to Buyer arising out of or relating to the provision of the Transition Services except for any liability arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Seller. THE LIMITED WARRANTIES SET FORTH ABOVE ARE EXCLUSIVE AND ARE IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICES OR PRODUCTS PROVIDED UNDER THIS TS AGREEMENT, THE PERFORMANCE OF MATERIALS OR PROCESSES DEVELOPED OR PROVIDED UNDER THIS TS AGREEMENT, OR AS TO THE RESULTS WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED THEREFROM, AND ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABLITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE AND NONINFRINGEMENT.

(b) SELLER’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO THE BUYER FOR DAMAGES ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THIS TS AGREEMENT SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AGGREGATE FEES OWED BY BUYER TO SELLER PURSUANT TO THIS TS AGREEMENT. “DAMAGES” SHALL MEAN ANY DAMAGE, LOSS, LIABILITY AND EXPENSE (INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEY’S FEES). TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY PARTY, ITS SUBSIDIARIES OR AFFILIATES BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOST PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF BUSINESS INFORMATION OR OTHER PECUNIARY LOSS) ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THIS TS AGREEMENT REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH LIABILITY IS BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTIES, FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE AND EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

11. Dispute Resolution. In the event of any dispute between Seller and the Buyer Parties with respect to the provision of any Service pursuant to this TS Agreement, each of Seller and the Buyer Parties shall designate an employee or other representative as its representative to attempt to resolve the dispute and each such representative will use reasonable commercial efforts to resolve the dispute promptly. If the individuals designated by Seller and the Buyer Parties are unable to resolve the dispute promptly, the dispute will be submitted to a member of senior management of each Party. Such members of senior management will meet in person or by telephone conference at least once in the 10-day period following the submission of the dispute to them and will use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve the dispute promptly. If such members of senior management are unable to resolve the dispute within 15 days of the submission of the dispute to them, such dispute will be resolved in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 9.10 of the Asset Purchase Agreement with respect to disputes arising out the Asset Purchase Agreement.

12. Term and Termination.

(a) Term. Subject to Section 8 above, this TS Agreement is effective beginning on the Closing Date and will terminate on the last to expire Transition Period set forth on Annex A with respect to the performance of any Transition Service, unless (i) terminated earlier as provided in this Agreement or (ii) extended by the Parties pursuant to an additional signed writing.

(b) Termination.

(i) Termination by Buyer. Buyer will have the right to terminate any or all of the Transition Services upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to Seller of those Transition Services to be terminated, provided that all Fees allocable to commitments or obligations reasonably incurred by Seller in the performance of such Transition Services prior to termination, and Fees allocable to non-cancelable commitments and obligations related to such Transition Services (which will in no event be more than 30 days), shall be due and payable to Seller in accordance with Section 2 of this TS Agreement.

(ii) Failure to Pay Fees. If Buyer fails to make a payment specified in Section 2 and failure is not cured within ten (10) business days after notice from Seller specifying the default, Seller may terminate this TS Agreement upon further notice to Buyer.

(iii) Termination following Breach.

If any such breach so specified is not cured within such fifteen (15) day period, the Non-Defaulting Party may elect to immediately terminate this TS Agreement.

(iv) Survival. Sections 2, 9, 10, 11, 12(b), and 13 through 24 will survive any expiration or termination of this TS Agreement.

13. Independent Contractor. The Parties hereto understand and agree that this TS Agreement does not make either of them an agent or legal representative of the other for any purpose whatsoever. No Party is granted, by this TS Agreement or otherwise, except as otherwise provided by the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, any right or authority to assume or create any obligation or responsibilities, express or implied, on behalf of or in the name of any other Party, or to bind any other Party in any manner whatsoever. The Parties expressly acknowledge (i) that Seller is an independent contractor with respect to Buyer in all respects, including the provision of the Transition Services, and (ii) that the Parties are not partners, joint venturers, employees or agents of or with each other.
