COVENANTS OF SELLER AND BUYER

Seller, the Members and Buyer, as the case may be, each covenant with the other as follows:

6.1 Further Assurances. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, the parties agree, before and after the Closing, (a) to use all reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, (b) to execute any documents, instruments or conveyances of any kind which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to carry out any of the transactions contemplated hereunder or thereunder, and (c) to cooperate with each other in connection with the foregoing. As promptly as possible after the Agreement Date, Seller will make all filings required by Law to be made by them in order to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, will obtain all other required Consents (provided, that Buyer shall not be required to make any payments, commence litigation or agree to modifications of the terms of any Contracts or Leases in order to obtain any such Consent) and Permits and will apply for any new Permits necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. As promptly as possible after the Agreement Date, Buyer will give all notices to third parties and make all filings required by Law to be made by it in order to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. At the request of Buyer, Seller and the Members shall provide such information and documentation reasonably available to such Person in connection with Buyer’s reporting obligations to the US Securities and Exchange Commission.

6.2 Conduct of Business. From the Agreement Date through the Closing Date, Seller shall, except as permitted by this Agreement or as consented to by Buyer in writing, conduct the Business only in the Ordinary Course of Business and (i) will not take any action inconsistent with this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements or with the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and (ii) use its Best Efforts to maintain the continuity of management and maintain the Purchased Assets in a state of repair and condition that complies with Laws and is consistent with the requirements of the Business as it is presently conducted. In addition and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller shall not, and except as specifically permitted by this Agreement or as consented to by Buyer in writing, take any affirmative action, or fail to take any reasonable action, in each case which would reasonably be expected to result in the occurrence of any of the changes or events listed in Section 4.9 of this Agreement.

6.3 Members’ Meeting. Seller shall, to the extent permitted or required under Ohio law, take all action reasonably necessary in accordance with applicable law and Seller’s Operating Agreement to duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of its members, or otherwise take such action by written consent (the “Members’ Meeting”) as promptly as practicable after the Agreement Date for the purpose of, among other things, considering and taking action, as necessary, upon the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

6.4 Consents. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign any of the Purchased Assets or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom if an attempted assignment thereof, without the Consent of a third party thereto, would constitute a Default thereof or in any way adversely affect the rights of Buyer thereunder or thereto. Buyer and Seller further agree that, although Buyer and Seller agree to cooperate with each other in attempting to obtain all Consents, any failure to obtain any Consents by either Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, for any reason whatsoever shall not constitute a Breach of this Agreement by Seller or Buyer, as the case may be. If any of the Purchased Assets are not assigned to Buyer on the Closing Date due to circumstances described in this Section 6.4, then Buyer shall not assume any Liabilities related to or arising out of such non-transferred Purchased Asset until such Purchased Asset can be properly transferred to Buyer and Buyer has all of the benefits of such Purchased Asset. If any Consent is not obtained, or if an attempted assignment thereof would be ineffective or would affect the rights thereunder so that Buyer would not receive all such rights, Seller will use its Best Efforts to provide to Buyer the benefits of such Purchased Assets, including, without limitation, enforcement for the benefit of Buyer of any and all rights of Seller against a third party thereto arising out of the Default or cancellation by such third party or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing contained in this Section 6.4 shall be deemed to constitute a waiver or have any effect on the conditions to Buyer’s obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby as set forth in Section 7.2(E).

6.5 Notification of Certain Matters. From the Agreement Date to the Closing Date, Seller shall give prompt notice to Buyer of (a) the occurrence, or failure to occur, of any event which occurrence or failure would be likely to cause any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or in any exhibit or schedule hereto to be untrue or inaccurate in any respect and (b) any failure of Seller or any of its Affiliates or Representatives, to comply with or satisfy any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by such Person under this Agreement or any exhibit or schedule hereto; provided, however, that such disclosure shall not be deemed to cure any breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement or to satisfy any condition. Seller shall promptly notify Buyer of any default, the threat or commencement of any Legal Proceeding, or any development that occurs before the Closing that could have a Material Adverse Effect. In addition, during such period, Seller will confer with Buyer concerning operational matters of a material nature and otherwise report periodically to Buyer concerning the status of the Business.

INDEMNIFICATION

8.1 Survival of Representations, Etc. All of the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, other than the representations and warranties contained in Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.7, 4.10, 4.14, 4.17, 4.21, 5.1, 5.2 and 5.5 shall survive the Closing and shall continue in full force and effect for a period of one year after the Closing Date. The representations and warranties contained in Sections 4.10, 4.14, and 4.17 shall survive the Closing and shall terminate only when the applicable statutes of limitations with respect to the liabilities in question expire, in each case giving effect to any tolling or extensions thereof. The representations and warranties contained in Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.7, 4.21, 5.1, 5.2 and 5.5 and all covenants and obligations of the parties made herein shall survive the Closing and shall continue in full force and effect indefinitely, but in no event shall the survival period extend beyond the expiration of the statutory term (including any renewals or extensions thereof) of the trademark, copyright or patent at issue. The right to indemnification, payment of Losses or other remedy based on such representations, warranties, covenants and obligations will not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any knowledge of the party entitled to such right to indemnification acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the Closing Date, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with, any such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation. The waiver of any condition based on the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or compliance with any covenant or obligation, will not affect the right to indemnification, payment of Losses, or other remedies based on such representations, warranties, covenants and obligations.

8.2 Indemnification.

(A) By Seller. Subject to Section 8.3, the Seller hereby agrees (without duplication) to indemnify, protect, defend (at Buyer’s request), release and hold Buyer and its directors, officers, managers, members, employees, agents, successors, Affiliates and assigns (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any and all Losses incurred in connection with, arising out of, resulting from or incident to:

(1) any Breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of Seller set forth in this Agreement or contained in any certificate delivered by or on behalf of Seller pursuant to this Agreement;

(2) any Breach of any covenant or other agreement made by Seller in or pursuant to this Agreement;

(3) any Excluded Liability;

(4) any Liability imposed upon Buyer by reason of Buyer’s status as transferee of the Business or the Purchased Assets other than any Assumed Liability;

(5) any Liability (A) imposed upon Buyer by reason of Buyer’s decision not to hire any of Seller’s employees, other than any Liability arising out of Buyer’s violation of any federal or state employment discrimination Law in its hiring practices with respect to Seller’s employees, or (B) under the WARN Act which may result from any termination of any employees of Seller in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

(6) any Liability arising under or with respect to any and all Employee Plans, and any Liability with respect to any of Seller’s employees, former employees or service providers relating to acts or omissions which occurred on or prior to the Closing Date;

(7) any product shipped or manufactured by, or any services provided by, Seller prior to the Closing Date; or

(8) any claim by any Person for brokerage or finder’s fees or commissions or similar payments based on any agreement or understanding alleged to have been made by such Person with Seller or any shareholder thereof (or any Person acting (or purportedly acting) on behalf of any such Person) in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(B) By the Members. Subject to Section 8.3, each of the Members hereby agrees (without duplication) to indemnify, protect, defend (at Buyer’s request), release and hold the Buyer Indemnified Parties harmless from and against any and all Losses incurred in connection with, arising out of, resulting from or incident to any Breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of the Members set forth in this Agreement.

(C) By Buyer. Subject to Section 8.3, Buyer hereby agrees (without duplication) to indemnify, protect, defend (at Seller’s request), release and hold Seller and its directors, officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any and all Losses incurred in connection with, arising out of, resulting from or incident to:

(1) any Breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of Buyer set forth in this Agreement or contained in any certificate delivered by or on behalf of Buyer pursuant to this Agreement;

(2) any Breach of any covenant or other agreement made by Buyer in or pursuant to this Agreement;

(3) after the Closing, any Assumed Liability; or

(4) any Liability with respect to the Rehired Employees, including, without limitation, any Liability arising out of or related to termination of their employment and any claim for unfair labor practices, but only to the extent such Liability arises from actions taken by Buyer after the Closing Date.

(D) The term “Losses” as used in this Section 8.2 is not limited to matters asserted by third parties against any indemnified party, but includes Losses incurred or sustained by an indemnified party in the absence of third party claims. Payments by an indemnified party of amounts for which such indemnified party is indemnified under this Article VIII shall not be a condition precedent to recovery.

8.3 Limitations on Indemnification for Certain Breaches. An indemnifying party shall not have any Liability under Section 8.2(A) or 8.2(B) for any Claims unless the aggregate amount of Losses to the indemnified parties finally determined to arise thereunder exceeds Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) (the “Threshold Amount”), in which event the indemnifying party shall be required to pay the full amount of such Losses in excess of the Threshold Amount; provided, however, that the maximum liability of any party hereunder shall be limited to the consideration received by such party under this Agreement.

8.4 Indemnification Procedures.

(A) In the event that any Legal Proceeding shall be instituted or any claim or demand shall be asserted (individually and collectively, a “Claim”) by any Person in respect of which payment may be sought under this Article VIII (regardless of the provisions of Section 8.3), the indemnified party shall reasonably and promptly cause written notice (a “Claim Notice”) of the assertion of any Claim of which it has knowledge which is covered by this indemnity to be delivered to the indemnifying party; provided, however, that the failure of the indemnified party to give the Claim Notice shall not release, waive or otherwise affect the indemnifying party’s obligations with respect thereto, except to the extent that the indemnifying party can demonstrate actual loss and material prejudice as a result of such failure. If the indemnifying party shall notify the indemnified party in writing within five (5) Business Days (or sooner, if the nature of the Claim so requires) that the indemnifying party shall be obligated under the terms of its indemnity hereunder in connection with such lawsuit or action, then the indemnifying party shall be entitled, if it so elects at its own cost, risk and expense, (i) to take control of the defense and investigation of such lawsuit or action, (ii) to employ and engage attorneys of its own choice, but, in any event, reasonably acceptable to the indemnified party, to handle and defend the same unless the named parties to such action or proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and the indemnified party has been advised in writing by counsel that there may be one or more material legal defenses available to such indemnified party that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, in which event the indemnified party shall be entitled, at the indemnifying party’s cost, risk and expense, to a single firm of separate counsel (plus any necessary local counsel), all at reasonable cost, of its own choosing, reasonably acceptable to the indemnifying party and (iii) to compromise or settle such lawsuit or action, which compromise or settlement shall be made only with the prior written consent of the indemnified party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(B) If the indemnifying party elects not to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Claim which relates to any Losses indemnified against hereunder, fails to notify the indemnified party of its election as provided in this Section 8.4 or contests its obligation to indemnify the indemnified party for such Losses under this Agreement, the indemnified party may defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with such Claim. If the indemnified party defends any Claim, then the indemnifying party shall reimburse the indemnified party for the Losses incurred in defending such Claim upon submission of periodic bills. If the indemnifying party shall assume the defense of any Claim, the indemnified party may participate, at its own expense, in the defense of such Claim; provided, however, that such indemnified party shall be entitled to participate in any such defense with separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party if (i) so requested by the indemnifying party to participate or (ii) in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the indemnified party, a material conflict or potential material conflict exists between the indemnified party and the indemnifying party that would make such separate representation required; and provided, further, that the indemnifying party shall not be required to pay for more than one such counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any Claim. If the indemnifying party shall assume the defense of any Claim, the indemnifying party shall obtain the prior written consent of the indemnified party before entering into any settlement of such Claim or ceasing to defend such Claim if, pursuant to or as a result of such settlement or cessation, injunctive or other equitable relief shall be imposed against the indemnified party or if such settlement or cessation does not expressly and unconditionally release the indemnified party from all Liabilities or obligations with respect to such Claim, with prejudice. The parties hereto agree to cooperate fully with each other in connection with the defense, negotiation or settlement of any Claim.

9.4 Expenses.

The waiver by any party hereto of a Breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such Breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent Breach.

Nothing in this Agreement shall create or be deemed to create any rights as third party beneficiaries to this Agreement in any Person not a party to this Agreement, except as provided below; provided, however, that any Person that is not a party to this Agreement but, by the terms of Section 8.2, is entitled to indemnification, shall be considered a third party beneficiary of this Agreement, with full rights of enforcement as though such Person was a signatory to this Agreement. No assignment of this Agreement or of any rights or obligations hereunder may be made by either Seller or Buyer (by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other party hereto and any attempted assignment without the required consent shall be void; provided, however, that Buyer may assign this Agreement and any or all rights or obligations hereunder (including, without limitation, Buyer’s rights to acquire the Purchased Assets and Buyer’s rights to seek indemnification in accordance with Article VIII) to any Affiliate of Buyer. Upon any such permitted assignment, unless the context otherwise requires, the references in this Agreement to Buyer shall also apply to any such assignee; provided, however, that Buyer shall nevertheless remain primarily liable for its obligations under this Agreement.

9.13 Attorneys’ Fees and Costs. In the event of any action at law or in equity between the parties hereto to enforce any of the provisions hereof, the unsuccessful party to such litigation shall pay to the successful party all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred therein by such successful party; and if such successful party shall recover judgment in any such action or proceeding, such costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees may be included in and as part of such judgment..

9.14 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

9.15 Legends. Seller understands that the stock certificates representing the Common Stock shall bear any legend as required by the "blue sky" laws of any state and a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of such stock certificates):

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, IN A GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE 144A UNDER SAID ACT.

9.16 Representation by Counsel. Each party hereto represents and agrees with each other that it has been represented by or had the opportunity to be represented by independent counsel of its own choosing, and that it has had the full right and opportunity to consult with its respective attorney(s) to the extent, if any, that it desired, it availed itself of this right and opportunity, that it or its authorized officers (as the case may be) have carefully read and fully understand this Agreement in its entirety and have had it fully explained to them by such party’s respective counsel, that each is fully aware of the contents thereof and its meaning, intent and legal effect, and that it or its authorized officer (as the case may be) is competent to execute this Agreement and has executed this Agreement free from coercion, duress or undue influence.

9.17 Schedules. In the event of any inconsistency between the statements in the body of this Agreement and those in the Disclosure Schedule (other than an exception expressly set forth as such in the Disclosure Schedule with respect to a specifically identified representation or warranty), the statements in the body of this Agreement will control.

9.18 No Interpretation Against Drafter. This Agreement is the product of negotiations between the parties hereto represented by counsel and any rules of construction relating to interpretation against the drafter of an agreement shall not apply to this Agreement and are expressly waived.
