Upon delivery of the Estimated Purchase Price Calculation Statement, Seller shall provide Purchaser and its Representatives with reasonable access to the employees, agreements and books and records of Seller and the Company to verify the accuracy of such amounts. In the event that Purchaser does not agree that Seller’s estimate of the amount of the Closing Debt, the Closing Cash, the Closing Working Capital, the Working Capital Adjustment, or the Cash Purchase Price were arrived at in accordance with this Agreement and GAAP and on a basis consistent with the Financial Statements and the principles set forth in Annex I hereto, Seller and Purchaser shall negotiate in good faith to mutually agree upon acceptable estimates, and Seller shall consider in good faith any proposed comments or changes that Purchaser may reasonably suggest; provided, however, that Seller’s failure to include any changes proposed by Purchaser, or the acceptance by Purchaser of the Estimated Purchase Price Calculation Statement, shall not limit or otherwise affect Purchaser’s remedies under this Agreement, including Purchaser’s right to include such changes or other changes in the Final Purchase Price Calculation Statement, or constitute an acknowledgment by Purchaser of the accuracy of the Estimated Purchase Price Calculation Statement.

Section 2.6 Post-Closing Purchase Price Adjustment.

(a) Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to Seller, within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, a written statement (the “Final Purchase Price Calculation Statement”) setting forth Purchaser’s good faith calculations of (i) the amount of the Closing Debt, the Closing Cash and the Closing Net Cash Adjustment, and (ii) the amount of the Closing Working Capital and the Working Capital Adjustment calculated by reference thereto, which calculations shall be made in accordance with GAAP and on a basis consistent with the Financial Statements and the principles set forth on Annex I hereto. The Final Purchase Price Calculation Statement shall contain a recalculation of the Cash Purchase Price based on the foregoing amount of Closing Net Cash Adjustment and the Working Capital Adjustment and the principles set forth in Annex I hereto. The Final Purchase Price Calculation Statement shall (i) be accompanied by all information reasonably necessary to determine the information contained in such

Final Purchase Price Calculation Statement and such other information as may be reasonably requested by Seller and (ii) be duly certified by a duly authorized officer of Purchaser.

(b) If Seller does not notify Purchaser in writing within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Final Purchase Price Calculation Statement that it disputes any of the information or calculations provided in the Final Purchase Price Calculation Statement, Purchaser’s statement of the Closing Debt, Closing Cash and Closing Net Cash Adjustment and the Closing Working Capital and Working Capital Adjustment shall be final and conclusive. If Seller disagrees with any of the amounts reflected in the Final Purchase Price Calculation Statement, Seller may, within thirty (30) days after delivery of such statement to it, deliver a written notice to Purchaser stating in reasonable detail the existence, nature and basis of such disagreement and specifying the amount thereof in dispute, provided, that, Seller may only dispute amounts reflected on the Final Purchase Price Calculation Statement on the basis that the amounts reflected on the Final Purchase Price Calculation Statement were not arrived at in accordance with this Agreement and GAAP and on a basis consistent with the Financial Statements and the principles set forth on Annex I hereto. Any such notice of disagreement shall specify those items or amounts as to which Seller disagrees. If such notice of disagreement shall be delivered, the parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to reach agreement on the disputed items or amounts within thirty (30) days after Purchaser’s receipt of such notice. If the parties are unable to reach agreement on the disputed items within such period, then the issues in dispute will be submitted to Deloitte & Touche LLP, independent public accountants (the “Accountants”), for review and resolution, with instructions to complete the review as promptly as practicable. Purchaser and Seller each will furnish to the Accountants such workpapers and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues as the Accountants may request and are available to that party or its Subsidiaries (or its independent public accountants), and will be afforded the opportunity to present to the Accountants any material relating to the determination and to discuss the determination with the Accountants. The Accountants shall address only those items in dispute and may not assign a value greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either party or smaller than the smallest value for such item claimed by either party. The resolution of the Accountants shall be conclusive and binding on the parties and may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. The parties agree that the fees of the Accountants shall be allocated between Seller and Purchaser in the same proportion that the aggregate amount of such remaining disputed items submitted to the Accountants that is unsuccessfully disputed by each such party (as finally determined by the Accountants) bears to the total amount of such remaining disputed items so submitted.

(c) The Estimated Purchase Price Calculation Statement and the Final Purchase Price Calculation Statement shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP, and using the same accounting principles, practices and methodologies, consistently applied, that were used to prepare the Financial Statements. Solely for purposes of determining the Estimated Purchase Price Calculation Statement and the Final Purchase Price Calculation Statement, the parties hereby agree to the Working Capital Guidelines set forth on Annex I.

(d) During its review period, Seller and its Representatives shall have reasonable access during regular business hours and upon reasonable notice to all relevant books and records and employees of the Company or its Subsidiary involved in the preparation of the Final Purchase Price Calculation Statement to the extent it reasonably deems necessary to review matters and information related to the preparation of the Final Purchase Price Calculation Statement (and including without limitation any financial and other information relating to periods after the Closing Date that may be

relevant to or helpful in the review of the Final Purchase Price Calculation Statement) in a manner not unreasonably interfering with the business of the Company.

(e) Upon the earlier of (A) the notification by Seller of its acceptance of the Final Purchase Price Calculation Statement, (B) the thirtieth (30th) calendar day following the receipt of the Final Purchase Price Calculation Statement by Seller, provided that Seller does not properly deliver a written notice of disagreement on or prior to such date, (C) resolution of any disagreement by Purchaser and Seller, and (D) the final determination of the Accountants (the “Final Determination”), each in accordance with this Section 2.6, the Cash Purchase Price shall be recalculated using such finally determined amounts in lieu of the estimates of such amounts used in the calculation of the estimated Cash Purchase Price payable at Closing; provided, however, for the purposes of Section 2.6(e)(i) only, if the closing Working Capital Adjustment as finally determined is greater than the estimated Working Capital Adjustment used in the calculation of the estimated Cash Purchase Price, then the estimated Working Capital Adjustment shall be used to recalculate the final Cash Purchase Price.

(iii) If the Cash Purchase Price as recalculated pursuant to this Section 2.6(e) is greater than the estimated Cash Purchase Price payable at Closing, then Purchaser shall cause to be paid to Seller such excess amount.

(iv) If the Cash Purchase Price as recalculated pursuant to this Section 2.6(e) is equal to the estimated Cash Purchase Price payable at Closing, then no further payment shall be payable by Purchaser or Seller under this Section 2.6(e).

(v) If the Cash Purchase Price as recalculated pursuant to this Section 2.6(e) is less than the estimated Cash Purchase Price payable at Closing, then Seller shall pay to Purchaser the amount of such deficiency.

(vi) Any payments made pursuant to this Section 2.6(e) shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds no later than three Business Days after the Final Determination and shall be deemed to be adjustments to the Purchase Price for all Tax purposes.

(f) Withholding. Purchaser and the Company (and any other Person required to withhold with respect to any payment made under this Agreement) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as may be required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under any provision of federal, local or foreign Tax law. To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid; and, such withheld Taxes shall not be treated as current liabilities (nor shall any amounts withheld be treated as an asset) of the Company for any calculation of Working Capital.

Section 2.7 Earn-out Payment.

(a) In addition to the Cash Purchase Price and the Note, Purchaser shall pay the Earn-out Payment, if any, determined and payable in accordance with this Section 2.7. As used herein, the “Earn-out Payment” shall be an amount determined by reference to the EBITDA achieved for the calendar year ended December 31, 2012 (such calendar year, the “Earn-out Period”) and calculated as set forth in this Section 2.7, as follows:

(i) If EBITDA for the Earn-out Period is less than $50,255,000, there shall be no Earn-out Payment;

(ii) If EBITDA for the Earn-out Period is $52,900,000 or greater, the Earn-out Payment shall be $5,000,000; and

(iii) If EBITDA for the Earn-out Period is greater than $50,255,000 but less than $52,900,000, then the Earn-out Payment shall be an amount equal to the product of (A) $5,000,000, multiplied by (B) a fraction, the (i) numerator of which is the EBITDA for the Earn-out Period minus $50,255,000, and (ii) the denominator of which is $2,645,000.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event an Acceleration Event occurs, the Earn-out Payment shall be $5,000,000.

(b) For purposes of this Section 2.7, “EBITDA” means earnings of the Company and its Subsidiary, taken as a whole, before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and net of expenses associated with capitalized software development, if any, determined from the books and records of the Company and its Subsidiary in accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with the basis on which the Financial Statements from the most recent fiscal year-end were prepared and applying the accounting policies used in preparation of the Financial Statements, except with respect to the expensing, rather than capitalizing, of costs related to software development.

(c) Whether the Earn-out Payment is due by Purchaser to Seller shall be determined as of the end of the calendar year ended December 31, 2012 (the “Earn-out Determination Date”). As promptly as practicable, but in any event within sixty (60) days following the Earn-out Determination Date, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller a written statement (the “Earn-out Statement”) setting forth in reasonable detail Purchaser’s good faith calculation of the EBITDA for the Earn-out Period and Purchaser’s determination of whether the Earn-out Payment is due. After delivery of the Earn-out Statement and until any dispute with respect thereto is finally resolved, Seller and its accountants shall be permitted reasonable access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice, to review the books and records of the Company and its Subsidiary related to the preparation of the Earn-out Statement or the calculation of EBITDA; provided, however, that such access does not (i) unreasonably disrupt the normal operations of the Business, (ii) result in the waiver of any attorney-client privilege or the disclosure of any trade secrets or (iii) violate any Legal Requirement or the terms of any applicable Contract. Seller and its accountants may make inquiries of Purchaser, the Company and its Subsidiary and their accountants regarding questions concerning or disagreements with the Earn-out Statement arising in the course of their review thereof, and each of Purchaser and the Company and its Subsidiary shall, and shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause such accountants to, cooperate with and respond to such inquiries and, subject to the foregoing, to provide all information in their (or their accountants’) possession (including, without limitation, the work papers of their accountants) that is related to such review or the resolution of such disagreements. Purchaser’s Earn-out Statement shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto unless, within thirty (30) days following Seller’s receipt of such Earn-out Statement (the “Earn-out Review Period”), Seller provides Purchaser a written statement that it disagrees with Purchaser’s Earn-out Statement (the “Earn-out Objection Statement”). The Earn-out Objection Statement must include in reasonable detail Seller’s calculation of the EBITDA for the Earn-out Period and whether the Earn-out Payment is due. If a Earn-out Objections Statement is timely delivered to Purchaser, Seller and Purchaser shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any objections set forth in the Earn-out Objections Statement (and all such discussions related thereto shall

be governed by Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence and any applicable similar state rule and evidence of such discussions shall not be admissible in any future proceedings between the parties). If, for any reason, Seller and Purchaser do not reach a final resolution within 15 days after the delivery of the Earn-out Objections Statement, then (i) to the extent that such dispute relates to the determination of accounting matters, Seller and Purchaser shall mutually engage and submit such dispute to the Accountants for final and binding resolution or (ii) to the extent that such dispute relates to any other matters (e.g., compliance with the provisions of Section 2.7(f) below) or if the parties disagree as to whether the dispute relates solely to the determination of accounting matters, they shall resolve such dispute in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.13 hereof. If any dispute is submitted to the Accountants, each party will furnish to the Accountants and the other party such work papers and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues as the Accountants may reasonably request and are available to that party or its independent accountants, and each party shall be afforded the opportunity to present the Accountants material relating to the determination and to discuss the determination with the Accountants. The Accountants shall resolve matters in dispute and establish the Earn-out Payment to reflect such resolution. In the engagement letter or agreement pursuant to which Seller and Purchaser mutually engage the Accountants, the Accountants shall be required, in reaching its final and binding determination, to base such determination upon, and ensure that such determination is consistent with, the applicable accounting practices and procedures and the applicable definitions set forth in this Agreement. Seller and Purchaser shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Accountants to reach its written determination as soon as practicable and no later than 45 days after such dispute was submitted to the Accountants, or as soon as practicable thereafter. The determination by the Accountants shall be final, binding and non-appealable on the parties hereto and may be entered and enforced in any court having jurisdiction. The fees and expenses of the Accountants pursuant to this Section 2.7 shall be borne by Purchaser if the Earn-out Payment is determined to be due by the Accountants and by Seller if the Earn-out Payment is determined to not be due by the Accountants.

(d) The Earn-out Payment shall be paid as follows: (i) if the Earn-out Statement delivered by Purchaser to Seller reflects EBITDA resulting in the obligation to pay the Earn-out Payment, then Purchaser shall pay such amount concurrently with the delivery of the Earn-out Statement, (ii) without limiting clause (i), if Seller delivers a Earn-out Objections Statement to Purchaser and Purchaser becomes obligated to pay the Earn-out Payment, then within five Business Days of such resolution (negotiated or otherwise), Purchaser shall pay such amount, and/or (iii) as soon as practicable after, but in no event later than five Business Days following, an Acceleration Event (or, in the event there is a dispute between Purchaser and Seller with respect to the existence of an Acceleration Event, then as soon as practicable after, but in no event later than five Business Days following, resolution (negotiated or otherwise) of such dispute). Any payment of the Earn-out Payment shall be by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Seller. To the extent any Earn-out Payment is not paid by Purchaser to Seller when due hereunder, such amount shall bear interest from and including the date such payment was due to the date of payment at a rate per annum equal to 6%. Such interest shall be calculated daily on the basis of a 365 day year and the actual number of days elapsed.

(e) In the event that at any time prior to the Earn-out Determination Date, (i) (A) there occurs a liquidation or dissolution of the Company and its Subsidiary other than into an Affiliate of Purchaser, (B) there occurs a sale, license or other transfer of all or substantially all of the aggregate assets of the Company and its Subsidiary to a Person that is not an Affiliate of Purchaser in one or a series of transactions, (C) there occurs a merger, reorganization, consolidation or share exchange in which the outstanding equity securities of the Company and its Subsidiary are cancelled, converted into

or exchanged for a different kind of securities of the successor entity and the successor entity is not an Affiliate of Purchaser, or (D) there occurs an acquisition of all or substantially all of the outstanding equity securities of the Company and its Subsidiary by a Person that is not an Affiliate of Purchaser, or (ii) Purchaser or any of its Affiliates breaches the terms of Sections 2.7(f)(i), or 2.7(f)(ii) in a manner that, individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely affects EBITDA for the Earn-out Period (each of the events described in clauses (i)-(ii) of this Section 2.7(e) is referred to herein as an “Acceleration Event”; provided, however, that an event described in clause (i)(B)-(D) shall not constitute an Acceleration Event if the aggregate purchase price consideration, including the value of any non-cash consideration, received by Purchaser and its Affiliates in connection with such transaction is less than $165,000,000 unless the transferee in the applicable transaction has not agreed in writing to be bound by the terms of this Section 2.7), then the Earn-out Payment shall become due and payable immediately.

(f) It is expressly acknowledged and understood by the parties hereto that the inclusion of the Earn-out Payment as part of this Agreement is a principal term hereof and the opportunity to achieve the same constitutes substantial consideration for Seller’s willingness to execute this Agreement and consummate the Contemplated Transactions. In light of the foregoing, except as required by Legal Requirement, from the Closing through the earlier of (i) the Earn-out Determination Date and (ii) the occurrence of an Acceleration Event, without the consent of Seller:

(i) Purchaser shall operate the Business with distinct books and records so as to allow for the determination of EBITDA; and

(ii) Purchaser shall not (A) intentionally divert any material business opportunity relating to the Business to other business units of Purchaser primarily for the purpose of frustrating Seller’s achievement of the Earn-out Payment, (B) operate the Business in a manner a substantial purpose of which is to thwart or prevent the earning of the Earn-out Payment or (C) take any other action with the substantial purpose of artificially preventing or decreasing the Earn-out Payment, including by way of deferral or acceleration of revenues and expenses outside of the Ordinary Course of Business.

Without limiting the foregoing, if Purchaser requests that Seller consent to any action, omission, waiver or modification of the foregoing, Seller shall consider the requested consent in good faith and shall grant such consent if the specific action, omission, waiver or modification, considered separately or together with all such other actions, omissions, waivers or modifications consented to by Seller, would not reasonably be expected to adversely impact the Earn-out Payment that otherwise would be achievable in the absence of such action(s), omission(s), waiver(s) and/or modification(s). For the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained in this Section 2.7(f) is intended to restrict Purchaser’s right to control the Company and its Subsidiary in any respect, including, without limitation, the hiring or termination of employees, the incurrence of expenses and requiring compliance with Purchaser’s and its Affiliates’ internal controls, corporate governance policies and procedures, legal and regulatory compliance standards and other similar matters. Accordingly, Seller acknowledges and agrees that, in the event that any of the provisions of this Section 2.7(f) shall be breached in a manner that, individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely affects the calculation of EBITDA, Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be a claim or action to recalculate and/or appropriately adjust the EBITDA and/or, only in the event that any of the provisions of Sections 2.7(f)(i) or 2.7(f)(ii) are breached in a manner that, individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely affects the Earn-out Payment payable, to establish that such

breach constitutes an Acceleration Event, and Seller shall have no right to specifically enforce compliance with the provisions of this Section 2.7(f).

(g) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, none of Purchaser, the Company or any of their Affiliates (i) will owe Seller any fiduciary duty in respect of this Section 2.7 or the earning of any Earn-out Payment or (ii) will have any obligation in respect of this Section 2.7 other than an obligation to comply with (x) the covenants and agreements expressly set forth in this Section 2.7 and (y) the covenant of good faith and fair dealing implied in all contracts governed by New York law, it being the parties’ intention that any other covenants, agreements and/or obligations in respect of this Section 2.7 and the earning or payment of the Earn-out Payment are expressly waived and disclaimed. In addition, the rights of Seller to payment pursuant to this Section 2.7 will not be represented by a certificate, are personal to Seller and shall not be transferable for any reason, provided, that, without limitation of Section 2.7(e), Purchaser shall be entitled to transfer the rights hereunder to any of its successors by merger, sale of all or substantially all of its outstanding capital stock or sale of all or substantially all of its assets, provided the transferee has agreed in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. Any attempted transfer of such right by Seller or Purchaser (other than as permitted by the immediately preceding sentence) shall be null and void.

During the Pre-Closing Period, Purchaser shall promptly notify Seller in writing if it becomes aware of any fact or condition that causes or constitutes a breach of any of its representations and warranties as of the date of this Agreement, or if it becomes aware of the occurrence after the date of this Agreement of any fact or condition that would (except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement) cause or constitute a breach of any such representation or warranty had such representation or warranty been made as of the time of occurrence or discovery of such fact or condition. During the same period, Purchaser shall promptly notify Seller of the occurrence of any breach of any of its covenants in this Article VI or in Article VII or of the occurrence of any event that would reasonably be expected to make the satisfaction of the conditions in Article IX unlikely.

Section 6.5 Financing.

(a) Purchaser shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the Financing on the terms and conditions described in the Financing Letters (or on terms no less favorable to Purchaser (including with respect to the conditionality thereof)) and shall not permit any amendment or modification to be made to, or any waiver of any material provision or remedy under the Financing Letters, if such amendment, modification or waiver reduces the aggregate amount of the Financing or amends the conditions precedent to the Financing in a manner that would reasonably be expected to delay or prevent the Closing or make the funding of the Financing less likely to occur. Purchaser shall use its reasonable best efforts (i) to maintain in effect the Financing Letters, (ii) to consummate the Financing at or prior to the Closing, (iii) to comply with its obligations under the Financing Letters and (iv) to enforce all of its rights under the Financing Letters and the definitive agreements related thereto. Purchaser shall keep Seller informed on a reasonably current basis and in reasonable detail of the status of its efforts to arrange the Financing and provide to Seller, upon its request, copies of the definitive documents related to the Financing.

(b) Purchaser shall give Seller prompt notice if any condition to the Financing Letters is not likely to be satisfied, in each case, of which Purchaser becomes aware or any termination of the Financing Letters.

Section 7.2 Tax Matters.

(a) Purchaser agrees that it will not, and will not cause or permit the Company or its Subsidiary to, (i) take any action on the Closing Date, including the distribution of any dividend or the effectuation of any redemption, that is not in the Ordinary Course of Business of the Company or its Subsidiary and that could give rise to any Tax liability of Seller, the Company or its Subsidiary in respect of any Tax period (or portion thereof) ending on or before the close of business on the Closing Date, or (ii) make or change any Tax election or amend any Tax Return, in either case with respect to any Tax period (or portion thereof) ending on or before the Closing Date, that results in any increased Tax liability or reduction of any net operating loss, net capital loss, investment tax credit, charitable deduction or any other credit or attribute that could reduce Taxes (including deductions and credits related to alternative minimum taxes) of Seller, the Company, or its Subsidiary in respect of any Tax period (or portion thereof) ending on or before the close of business on the Closing Date. Purchaser agrees that Seller is to have no liability for any Tax resulting from any action of Purchaser or any Affiliate of Purchaser (including the Company and its Subsidiary) referred to in the preceding sentence, and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates against any actual Tax cost.

(b) Seller shall prepare and file or cause to be prepared and filed all Tax returns for the Company and its Subsidiary for all periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date that are filed after the Closing Date. To the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, Seller shall include any income, gain, loss, deduction or other tax items for such periods on its Tax Returns. Purchaser shall prepare and file or cause to be prepared and filed when due all Tax Returns that are required to be filed for the Company and its Subsidiary for the periods ending after the Closing Date.

Purchaser and Seller agree to retain or cause to be retained all books and records pertinent to the Company and its Subsidiary until the applicable period for assessment under any applicable Legal Requirement (giving effect to any and all extensions or waivers) has expired, and to abide by or cause the abidance with all record retention agreements entered into with any Governmental Body. Purchaser and Seller agree to give or cause their respective Affiliates to give each other reasonable notice prior to transferring, discarding or destroying any such books and records relating to Tax matters concerning pre-Closing Taxes and, if the other so requests, the party providing notice shall allow or cause its Affiliates to allow the other to take possession of such books and records. Purchaser and Seller shall cooperate with each other in the conduct of an audit, filing of Tax Returns or other proceedings involving the Company or its Subsidiary for any Tax purposes, and each shall execute and deliver such powers of attorney and other documents as are necessary to carry out the intent of this subsection.

(d) Each party shall have the right to conduct and control in its sole and absolute discretion any audit or dispute with any Government Body relating to any Tax Returns it has the responsibility to file pursuant to this Section 7.2; provided, however, that (i) Seller shall consult with Purchaser on the handling of any audit or dispute involving any Tax Return Seller has the responsibility to file and, if such audit or dispute would be reasonably expected to result in an increase in Tax liability of the Company or its Subsidiary for a post-Closing period, or in any liability for which Purchaser has

agreed to indemnify Seller, Seller shall not settle any such audit or dispute without the consent of Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and (ii) Purchaser shall consult with Seller on the handling of any audit or dispute involving a Tax Return that Purchaser has the responsibility to file and, if such audit or dispute would be reasonably expected to result in an increase in Tax liability of Seller or in any liability for which Seller has agreed to indemnify Purchaser, Seller shall have the right to participate in such audit or dispute, and Purchaser shall not settle any such audit or dispute without the consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Purchaser shall not, and shall not permit the Company or its Subsidiary to amend any Tax Return that would increase the liability of Seller for Taxes as provided in this Agreement without the prior written consent of Seller.

(e) Seller shall be liable for, and shall indemnify and hold Purchaser and the Company and its Subsidiary harmless against, all of the following Taxes (except for current Taxes that have been specifically reserved for in determining Working Capital) as well as all Losses with respect to such Taxes: (i) Taxes imposed on the Company and its Subsidiary with respect to taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date; (ii) with respect to taxable periods beginning before the Closing Date and ending after the Closing Date (the “Straddle Period”), Taxes imposed on the Company or its Subsidiary that are allocable, pursuant to Section 7.2(e), to the portion of such period ending on the Closing Date; (iii) any liability (as a result of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 and any comparable provision of state or foreign Tax Law or otherwise) for Taxes of Seller or any other Person (other than the Company and its Subsidiary) with respect to all tax periods ending on or before the Closing Date; (iv) any and all Taxes of any Person imposed on the Company or its Subsidiary as a transferee or successor, by contract or otherwise, with respect to all tax periods ending on or before the Closing Date and the portion through the end of the Closing Date that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (“Pre-Closing Tax Period”); and (v) any payments required to be made after the Closing Date under any Tax sharing, Tax indemnity, Tax allocation or similar contracts (whether or not written) to which the Company or its Subsidiary was obligated, or was a party, on or prior to the Closing Date.

(f) In the case of Taxes that are payable with respect to the Straddle Period, the portion of any such Tax that is allocable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be: (i) in the case of Taxes that are (A) based upon or related to income or receipts, (B) imposed in connection with any sale or other transfer or assignment of property (real or personal, tangible or intangible) (other than conveyances pursuant to this Agreement) or (C) withholding taxes deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the taxable year ended on the Closing Date; and (ii) in the case of Taxes imposed on a periodic basis with respect to assets or otherwise measured by the level of any item, deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire period (or, in the case of such Taxes determined on an arrears basis, the amount of such Taxes for the immediately preceding period), multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period. Any credit or refund resulting from an overpayment of Taxes for a Straddle Period shall be prorated based upon the method employed in this Section 7.2(e) taking into account the type of the Tax to which the refund relates. In the case of any Tax based upon or measured by capital (including net worth or long term debt) or intangibles, any amount thereof required to be allocated under this Section 7.2(f) shall be computed by reference to the level of such items on the Closing Date. All determinations necessary to effect the foregoing allocations shall to the extent it is reasonable be made in a manner consistent with prior practice of the Company.

(g) Seller will cause all Tax sharing agreements or similar agreements and all powers of attorney with respect to or involving the Company or its Subsidiary to be terminated prior to the Closing and, after the Closing, neither the Company nor its Subsidiary will be bound thereby or have any liability thereunder.

(h) Any transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other similar Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement shall be borne equally by Seller and Purchaser.

(i) Notwithstanding any provisions in this Agreement to the contrary, the obligations of Seller to indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser and the Company pursuant to this Section 7.2 shall survive until the thirtieth (30^th) day following the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations with respect to the Tax liabilities in question (giving effect to any waiver, mitigation or extension thereof).

(j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the rights and obligations of the parties with respect to indemnification for any and all Tax matters shall be governed solely by this Section 7.2 and the limitations contained in Section 11.3 shall not apply with respect to indemnification for any and all Tax matters other than Sections 11.3(b)(ii) and 11.3(b)(iii).

Section 7.3 Access to Records and Confidentiality.

(a) For a period of seven (7) years following the Closing Date, Purchaser shall provide, or shall cause the Company or its Subsidiary to provide, to Seller reasonable access to or copies of any files, records, books of account, data and other records of the Company or its Subsidiary with respect to periods prior to the Closing Date that Seller reasonably believes are necessary or advisable for Tax reporting or other business purposes, which information Seller agrees not to disclose to any Person except to its Representatives on a “need to know” basis.

(b) Seller agrees to, and shall cause its Representatives and Affiliates to: (i) for a period of two (2) years from the Closing Date, treat and hold as confidential (and not disclose or provide access to any Person to) all information relating to trade secrets, processes, patent applications, product development, price, customer and supplier lists, pricing and marketing plans, policies and strategies, details of client and consultant contracts, operations methods, product development techniques, business acquisition plans, new personnel acquisition plans and all other confidential or proprietary information of the Company or its Subsidiary, (ii) in the event that Seller or any such Representative or Affiliate becomes legally compelled to disclose any such information, provide Purchaser with prompt written notice of such requirement so that Purchaser or the Company or its Subsidiary may seek a protective order or other remedy or waive compliance with this Section 7.3(b), (iii) in the event that such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or Purchaser waives compliance with this Section 7.3(b), furnish only that portion of such confidential information which is legally required to be provided and exercise its reasonable best efforts to obtain assurances that confidential treatment will be accorded such information; provided, however, that this sentence shall not apply to any information that, at the time of disclosure, is available publicly and was not disclosed in breach of this Agreement by Seller, its Representatives or Affiliates and such information which was not previously known to Seller or any of its Representatives or Affiliates but becomes rightfully known to Seller or its Representatives or Affiliates after Closing, without restriction, from a source (other than Purchaser and its Affiliates) not

related to Seller’s prior ownership of the Business and without any breach of duty to Purchaser or its Affiliates.

Section 7.4 Guarantees and Indemnification Obligations; Release.

(a) After the Closing, Purchaser and the Company and its Subsidiary, jointly and severally, shall forever indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates from and against any Losses that Seller and any of its Affiliates suffers, incurs or is liable for by reason of or arising out of or in consequence of (i) Seller or any of its Affiliates issuing, making a payment under, or being a party to, any guarantee, indemnity, letter of credit, letter of comfort and other obligations relating to the Business, as set forth and limited in Schedule 7.4(a) (collectively, the “Indemnified Guarantees”); (ii) any claim or demand for payment made on Seller or any of its Affiliates under any of the Indemnified Guarantees; or (iii) any action, claim or proceeding by any person who is or claims to be entitled to the benefit of any Indemnified Guarantees.

(b) Each of Seller and Purchaser covenants and agrees, on the Closing, to execute and deliver to the other, for the benefit of such party and any of its Affiliates, effective on and after the Closing, a general release and discharge, in form and substance satisfactory to such party, releasing and discharging such party from any and all obligations and liabilities to and claims against the releasing party pursuant to any Contract entered into prior to the Closing (for the avoidance of doubt, including a release by Seller and its Affiliates of all claims for payables, expenses and liabilities owed by the Company or its Subsidiary to Seller or its Affiliates (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries)), except for those Contracts listed on Schedule 5.8 or Schedule 7.4(a).

Section 7.5 Insurance. From and after the Closing, the Company and its Subsidiary shall cease to be insured by Seller’s or any of its Affiliate’s insurance policies, Contracts or programs of self-insurance, and shall have no access to any such insurance policies, Contracts, or programs of self-insurance other than as set forth in this Agreement or the Transition Services Agreement; provided that (i) no termination of coverage of the Company and its Subsidiary under any “occurrence based” policy of Seller in force as of the Closing Date shall be affected so as to prevent the Company and its Subsidiary from recovering under such policies for losses covered thereby from events occurring prior to the Closing Date; and (ii) no termination of any “claims made” policy of Seller in force as of the Closing Date shall be effected so as to prevent the Company and its Subsidiary from recovering under such policies for losses covered thereby arising from or out of any claim made prior to the Closing Date, or, with respect to Seller’s “claims made” Network Security and Privacy Liability Endorsement only, claims made after the Closing Date for wrongful acts committed prior to the Closing Date, but only to the extent that Seller continues the endorsement in place at Closing and such endorsement is in effect at the time the claim is made, subject in all cases to policy coverage terms, limits and sublimits; it being understood that with respect to any claims made under any “occurrence based” or “claims made” policy, the Company and its Subsidiary shall be solely responsible for any deductible payable under the terms of the applicable policy in connection with any such claim.

Section 7.6 Employee Matters.

(a) During the period commencing at the Closing and ending on the date which is twelve (12) months from the Closing, or, in the case of clause (ii), December 31, 2011 (or, in either case, if earlier, the date of the employee’s termination of employment with the Company or its Subsidiary),

Purchaser shall and shall cause the Company or its Subsidiary to provide each employee who remains employed immediately after the Closing (hereafter referred to as a “Company Continuing Employee,” whether employed by the Company or its Subsidiary) with: (i) base salary or hourly wages which are no less than the base salary or hourly wages provided by the Company or its Subsidiary, as applicable, immediately prior to the Closing; (ii) target bonus opportunities (excluding equity-based compensation), if any, which are substantially comparable to the target bonus opportunities (excluding equity-based compensation) provided by the Company or its Subsidiary, as applicable, immediately prior to the Closing; (iii) retirement and welfare benefits that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to those provided by the Company or its Subsidiary, as applicable, immediately prior to the Closing (excluding retiree medical benefits), it being agreed and understood that all retirement and welfare benefit plans offered by the Subsidiary shall, as a matter of law, be assumed and continued by Purchaser; and (iv) severance benefits that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to the practice, plan or policy in effect for such Company Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing. Purchaser shall assume and honor, and shall cause the Company and its Subsidiary to assume and honor, and, if applicable, Seller shall assign to Purchaser all of Seller’s and its Affiliates’ rights under, all employment agreements, Plans and Other Benefit Obligations of the Company’s Subsidiary, and all liabilities thereunder in accordance with their terms as in effect immediately before Closing, to the extent previously disclosed to Purchaser and, subject to any amendment or termination thereof that may be permitted by such terms or applicable Legal Requirements; provided that under no circumstances shall Purchaser assume any obligation to provide equity, equity-based, or long-term incentive awards and Seller shall retain all such obligations that arise prior to the Closing or otherwise under any Other Benefit Obligation. Purchaser shall also assume and honor the Other Benefit Obligations maintained by the Company for its employees, which are not sponsored or maintained by Seller for any employees other than those of the Company, including but not limited to vacation, sick leave, and other paid leaves of absence and subject to any amendment or termination thereof that may be permitted by such terms or applicable Legal Requirements. Except as expressly provided for in this Section 7.6, Seller shall retain all other Plans and Other Benefit Obligations in which employees of the Company or its Subsidiary may participate immediately prior to the Closing.

(b) Purchaser shall establish a defined contribution retirement savings plan designed to be a qualified plan under § 401(k) of the IRC, or designate an existing 401(k) retirement savings plan that is so qualified (such plan, in either case, the “Purchaser Savings Plan”). As soon as practicable following the Closing (or the end of the Transition Services Agreement, if continued participation in Seller’s 401(k) retirement savings plan (the “Seller Savings Plan”) is provided under said agreement), Seller shall permit the account balances of the Company Continuing Employees in the Seller Savings Plan to be spun off and transferred to the Purchaser Savings Plan (including a transfer of all outstanding participant loans), in accordance with the terms of such plans, on the terms and conditions specified in the Transition Services Agreement, if applicable, and in compliance with the applicable requirements of § 401(k) of the IRC. Seller shall thereafter amend its Retirement Savings Plan to exclude the Company as a participating employer and to cause the Seller Savings Plan no longer to provide for the accrual of benefits for Company employees. Purchaser shall pay the first $15,000 in reasonable expenses associated with such spin off and transfer of assets and liabilities, including but not limited to the expenses charged by the trustee and recordkeeper for the Seller Savings Plan.

(c) Prior to the Closing, Seller shall cause (i) the Company to establish a deferred compensation plan that is substantially identical to Seller’s deferred compensation plan (the “Seller DCP” and such new plan, the “Company DCP”) and (ii) as of the Closing, Company Continuing Employees to cease participating in the Seller DCP and instead participate in the Company DCP on terms identical to the terms as to which each such Company Continuing Employee was participating in the Seller DCP (including, without limitation, deferral and payment elections), to the extent a Company Continuing Employee was participating in the Seller DCP. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any of the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.6(c) would result in the imposition of taxes and/or penalties under § 409A of the IRC, Purchaser and Seller shall cooperate to modify the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.6(c) in order to comply with the provisions of § 409A, other applicable provision(s) of the IRC and/or any rules, regulations or other regulatory guidance issued under such statutory provisions.

(d) With respect to any Plan or Other Benefit Obligation maintained by Purchaser or its Subsidiaries (collectively, “Purchaser Benefit Plans”) in which any Company Continuing Employee may be eligible to participate effective as of the Closing, Purchaser shall, or shall cause the Company and its Subsidiary to, recognize all service of the Company Continuing Employees with Seller and its Affiliates as if such service were with Purchaser, for the purposes of determining such Company Continuing Employee’s eligibility to participate in such Purchaser Benefit Plans, vesting status relative to benefits earned or to be earned under such Purchaser Benefit Plans, and the level of benefit which each such Company Continuing Employee is eligible to accrue under such Purchaser Benefit Plans, if service or seniority is a factor in determining the level of benefits, such as for the purpose of determining paid time off days or the level of credits under a cash balance pension plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such service shall not be recognized to the extent that (i) such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits, (ii) such service was not recognized under the corresponding Company Plan, or (iii) for purposes of benefit accrual under any defined benefit pension plan maintained by Purchaser. Nothing herein shall require Purchaser or the Company or its Subsidiary to continue to sponsor any particular benefit plan or arrangement or to continue to provide for accrual of defined benefit pension benefits.

(e) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 7.6, the participation by Company Continuing Employees employed in the U.S. in Welfare Plans that are Seller Welfare Plans shall continue until the earlier of the termination of the Transition Services Agreement or December 31, 2011 (the “TSA End Date”). Effective as of the TSA End Date, Purchaser shall permit each Company Continuing Employee employed in the U.S., and any former Company Employee, who was an active Company Employee employed in the U.S. as of the Closing Date, covered by Seller under the Seller Welfare Plans as of immediately prior to the Closing Date, to enroll in Welfare Plans that are consistent with the requirements set forth herein. With respect to the coverage of the Company Continuing Employees under Purchaser’s Welfare Plans, (i) each such employee’s credited service with Seller and its Affiliates shall be credited against any waiting period applicable to eligibility for enrollment of new employees under Purchaser’s Welfare Plans; (ii) limitations on benefits due to pre-existing conditions shall be waived (or, if such a waiver is not otherwise required by applicable Legal Requirements, Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to have them waived), to the extent waived under the corresponding Welfare Plan of Seller and its Affiliates, for any Company Continuing Employee enrolled in any Welfare Plan maintained by Seller and its Affiliates as of the Closing Date (or if later, the TSA End Date); and (iii) any out-of-pocket annual maximums and deductibles taken into account

under a Seller group health plan for any Company Continuing Employee in the calendar year which contains the Closing Date (or if later, the TSA End Date) shall be credited under Purchaser’s Welfare Plans for the same calendar year.

(f) Except as otherwise provided in Sections 7.6(g) and (h) and the Transition Services Agreement, notwithstanding anything in this Section 7.6 to the contrary (but subject to Sections 7.6(g) and (h) and the Transition Services Agreement), commencing as of the Closing, with respect to claims arising under any Welfare Plan that is a Seller Welfare Plan, (i) Seller and its Affiliates shall be solely liable for any claims for Welfare Benefits that are incurred by or with respect to any Company Continuing Employee and his or her beneficiaries or dependents before the Closing Date, and (ii) Purchaser shall be solely liable for any claims for Welfare Benefits that are incurred by or with respect to any Company Continuing Employee and his or her beneficiaries or dependents on or after the Closing Date. For purposes of the foregoing, a medical/dental/vision claim shall be considered incurred when the services are rendered, the supplies are provided or medication is prescribed, and not when the condition arose. The manner in which such claims shall be administered shall be set forth in the Transition Services Agreement.

(g) Purchaser shall be responsible for providing the notices and making available continuation coverage under the requirements of IRC § 4980B and Part 6 of Title I of ERISA, as well as any similar requirements under applicable state law (collectively, “COBRA Continuation Coverage”) for all Company Continuing Employees employed in the U.S. and their respective covered dependents whose qualifying events (as defined in IRC § 4980B) occur on or after the TSA End Date. Seller shall continue to be responsible for providing the notices and making available COBRA Continuation Coverage, for (i) all Company employees, and their respective covered dependents, whose qualifying events (as defined in IRC § 4980B) occur prior to the Closing Date and (ii) all Company Continuing Employees and their respective covered dependents whose qualifying events (as defined in IRC § 4980B) occur on or after the Closing Date and prior to the TSA End Date, provided that, with respect to the individuals described in clause (ii), except as may arise from Seller’s negligence or willful failure to comply with applicable Legal Requirements, Purchaser shall be responsible for any liabilities that may result from, arise under or be incurred in connection with the provision of COBRA Continuation Coverage in accordance with the terms of the Transition Services Agreement, and, as of the TSA End Date, Purchaser shall provide COBRA Continuation Coverage under Purchaser’s Welfare Plans with respect to all such individuals described in clause (ii) who remain eligible for COBRA Continuation Coverage beyond the TSA End Date. Seller and its Affiliates shall provide Purchaser with the records necessary to identify and administer such responsibilities.

(h) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if any Company Continuing Employee has become disabled (within the meaning of the applicable short-term and/or long-term disability plan of Seller and its Affiliates) on or subsequent to the Closing Date but on or prior to the TSA End Date, any short-term and/or long-term disability salary continuation income benefits relating to such disability shall be paid under the terms of such short or long-term disability plan as in effect immediately prior to the TSA End Date (subject to Purchaser’s responsibility for the cost of such benefits as contemplated by this Section 7.6 and the Transition Services Agreement) and, following the TSA End Date, Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide that coverage related to any such disability be transferred to a corresponding Purchaser disability plan. Notwithstanding

anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if any Company Continuing Employee has become disabled (within the meaning of the applicable Welfare Plan maintained by Seller or its Affiliates that provides short-term or long-term disability benefits) prior to the Closing Date, Seller and/or Seller’s Affiliates will retain liability for the provision of disability benefits payable to such employee under Seller’s Welfare Plans, if any, with respect to such disability (but not with respect to any reoccurrence of such a disability after such employee returns to active service with the Company or its Subsidiary on or following the Closing Date). From and after the Closing Date, any right to reemployment for any Company Continuing Employees who are on short-term or long-term disability as of immediately prior to the Closing Date shall be the obligation of Purchaser and its Affiliates and not of Seller and its Affiliates.

(i) This Section 7.6 shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each of the parties to this Agreement, and nothing in this Section 7.6, express or implied, shall confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Section 7.6. Nothing contained herein, express or implied, shall be construed to establish, amend, or modify any benefit plan, program, agreement, or arrangement. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the terms set forth in this Section 7.6 shall not create any right in any employee or any other Person to any continued employment with the Company, Purchaser, or any of their respective Affiliates or compensation or benefits of any nature or kind whatsoever.

(j) Without limiting the generality of this Section 7.6, Purchaser shall indemnify Seller and its Affiliates and hold each of them harmless from and against any Losses which may be incurred or suffered by any of them (i) under any Legal Requirement arising out of, or relating to, any actions taken by Purchaser or the Company or its Subsidiary on or after the Closing Date, relating to employee compensation and benefits, including without limitation, under the WARN Act or similar laws and liability under ERISA or similar laws; (ii) in connection with any claim made by any employee for any severance pay or other compensation or benefit entitlements by reason of such employee’s termination or deemed termination of employment as a result of the Contemplated Transactions or after the Closing; or (iii) by reason of Purchaser’s failure to comply with any of the provisions of this Section 7.6. Seller shall indemnify Purchaser and its Affiliates and hold each of them harmless from and against any Losses which may be incurred or suffered by any of them under any Legal Requirements arising out of, or relating to, any actions taken by Seller or any of its Affiliates on or after the Closing Date, relating to employee compensation and benefits, including without limitation, under ERISA or similar laws.

Section 7.7 Non-Solicitation. For a period of two (2) years from the Closing Date, none of Seller, its Subsidiaries or any of their officers, directors or employees shall, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit for employment or hire (whether as an employee, consultant or otherwise) any individual who was an employee of the Company or its Subsidiary immediately prior to Closing; provided; that Seller, its Subsidiaries and their officers, directors and employees shall not be restricted or precluded from (A) soliciting or hiring, or taking any other action with respect to any such person (other than any Key Employee or any other employee of the Company or its Subsidiary if four or more other Persons in such employees division have been hired by Seller or its Subsidiaries following the Closing Date) who has been terminated by Purchaser or its Affiliates prior to the commencement of employment discussions between Seller, its Subsidiaries or any of their officers, directors or employees and such person, or responds to general or public solicitation not targeted at employees of Purchaser or any of its

Affiliates, including the Company and its Subsidiary (including by a bona fide search firm), or (B) engaging in general or public solicitations or advertising not targeted to any such persons described above, or (ii) solicit, persuade, encourage or take any other action which is intended to induce (A) any vendor or supplier of the Company and its Subsidiary to adversely alter, modify or discontinue its relationship with the Company and its Subsidiary or (B) any customer or client of the Company and its Subsidiary to discontinue, or not to commence, purchasing from the Company and its Subsidiary.

Section 7.8 Non Competition.

(a) For a period of one (1) year from the Closing Date, each Restricted Party (as defined below) shall not, either directly or indirectly as a stockholder, investor, member, partner or otherwise, own, manage, operate or engage in the Business in the United States. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Restricted Parties may (i), directly or indirectly, hold publicly traded interests in or securities of any Person engaged in the Business to the extent that such investment does not, directly or indirectly, confer on the Restricted Parties more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of such Person and (ii) engage in the Business if the Business is not the primary business of such Restricted Party and if less than $10,000,000 of the total revenue of such Restricted Party as reflected in its most recent annual financial statements relate to the Business.

If, after the Closing, Purchaser or its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiary) receive any funds that are the property of Seller or its Affiliates, Purchaser shall, or shall cause one of its Affiliates to, remit any such funds promptly to Seller or such Affiliate.

TERMINATION

Section 10.1 Termination of Agreement. This Agreement may be terminated and the Contemplated Transactions abandoned at any time prior to the Closing Date:

(a) by mutual written consent of Purchaser and Seller;

(b) by either Purchaser or Seller if there is any Legal Requirement that makes consummation of the Contemplated Transactions illegal or otherwise prohibited or if consummation of the Contemplated Transactions would violate any Final Order of any Governmental Body having competent jurisdiction;

(c) by either Purchaser or Seller on or after August 1, 2011, if the Closing shall not have been consummated on or before July 31, 2011 (the “Termination Date”); provided, however, that such right to terminate this Agreement will not be available to any such party whose failure to perform in any material respect any obligation of such party under this Agreement when performance thereof was due is the cause of the delay;

(d) by Purchaser if (i) any representation or warranty of Seller contained in this Agreement shall be inaccurate or shall have been breached as of the date of this Agreement, or shall have become inaccurate or shall be breached as of a date subsequent to the date of this Agreement (as if made on such subsequent date), such that the condition set forth in Section 8.1 would not be satisfied as of the time such representation or warranty shall have become inaccurate (assuming the Closing Date were as of such time), or (ii) any of the covenants or obligations of Seller contained in this Agreement shall have been breached such that the condition set forth in Section 8.2 would not be satisfied as of the time of such breach (assuming the Closing Date were as of such time); provided, however, that if an inaccuracy in or breach of any of Seller’s representations and warranties or a breach of a covenant or obligation by Seller is curable by Seller and Seller is continuing to exercise all reasonable efforts to cure such inaccuracy or breach, then Purchaser may not terminate this Agreement under this Section 10.1(d) on account of such inaccuracy or breach until twenty (20) Business Days subsequent to the date Purchaser notified Seller in writing of the existence of such inaccuracy or breach; or

(e) by Seller if (i) any representation or warranty of Purchaser contained in this Agreement shall be inaccurate or shall have been breached as of the date of this Agreement, or shall have become inaccurate or shall be breached as of a date subsequent to the date of this Agreement (as if made on such subsequent date) such that the condition set forth in Section 9.1 would not be satisfied as of the time such representation or warranty shall have become inaccurate (assuming the Closing Date were as of such time), or (ii) any of the covenants or obligations of Purchaser contained in this Agreement shall have been breached such that the condition set forth in Section 9.2 would not be satisfied as of the time of such breach (assuming the Closing Date were as of such time); provided, however, that if an inaccuracy in any of the representations and warranties of Purchaser or a breach of a covenant or obligation by Purchaser is curable by Purchaser and Purchaser is continuing to exercise all reasonable efforts to cure such inaccuracy or breach, then Seller may not terminate this Agreement under this Section 10.1(e) on account of such inaccuracy or breach until ten (10) Business Days subsequent to the date Seller notified Purchaser in writing of the existence of such inaccuracy or breach.

Section 10.2 Effect of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to any provision of Section 10.1, all further obligations of the parties under this Agreement will terminate, except that the obligations set forth in Sections 10.3, 12.1, 12.2 and 12.3 will survive; provided, however, subject to Section 10.3, that if this Agreement is terminated by a party because of any breach of this Agreement by any other party or because one or more of the conditions to the terminating party’s obligations under this Agreement is not satisfied as a result of any other party’s failure to comply with obligations under this Agreement, the terminating party’s right to pursue all legal remedies will survive such termination unimpaired.

Section 10.3 Termination Fee. If this Agreement is terminated by Purchaser or Seller pursuant to Section 10.1(c) and as of the Termination Date all of the conditions to the obligations of Purchaser to effect the Contemplated Transactions have been satisfied or waived or, in the case of any certificates or other instruments to be delivered on the Closing Date, could have been satisfied (in each case other than any conditions for which the failure to be so satisfied resulted from Purchaser’s breach of any provision of this Agreement), other than the condition set forth in Section 8.9, then Purchaser shall pay to Seller by wire transfer in immediately available funds the amount of $6,400,000 (the “Termination Fee”) within two Business Days after such termination. Purchaser and Seller agree that upon any termination of this Agreement under circumstances where the Termination Fee is payable pursuant to this Section 10.3 and such Termination Fee is paid in full, the parties hereto shall be precluded from any other remedy against the other parties, at law or in equity or otherwise, and neither the Company, Seller or Purchaser shall seek to obtain any recovery, judgment or damages of any kind, including consequential, indirect or punitive damages, against the other parties hereto or any of their Subsidiaries or any of their respective officer, directors, employees, partners, managers, members, shareholders or Affiliates in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

ARTICLE XI

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 11.1 Survival. The representations and warranties of the parties set forth in Article III and Article IV shall survive the Closing and continue in full force and effect until the later of (a) the twelve–month anniversary of the Closing Date and (b) the date that is 30 days after completion of

the audit of the financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiary for the period ending December 31, 2011, which date shall in no event be later than the 15-month anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Survival Date”), except that (i) the representations and warranties contained in Sections 3.1 and 4.1 (Organization and Good Standing), Sections 3.2(a) and (b)(i) and 4.2(a) and (b)(i) (Authority; Binding Obligation; No Conflict), Section 3.3 (Capitalization), Section 3.11 (Taxes) and Section 3.25 (Brokers) shall survive the Closing and continue in effect until the date that is thirty (30) days after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. The covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement to be wholly performed prior to the Closing shall survive the Closing until the Survival Date, and the covenants and agreements that by their terms apply or are to be performed in whole or in part after the Closing Date shall survive for the period provided in such covenants and agreements, if any, or until fully performed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any claims asserted under Section 11.2 in good faith with reasonable specificity (to the extent known at such time) and in writing by notice from the non-breaching party to the breaching party prior to the expiration date of the applicable survival period shall not thereafter be barred by the expiration of such survival period and such claims shall survive until finally resolved.

Section 11.2 Indemnification. Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth in this Article XI, from and after the Closing Date:

(a) Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser and its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiary, after the Closing) (each, a “Purchaser Indemnified Party” and, collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnified Parties”) from and against any Losses that are imposed on or incurred or accrued by any Purchaser Indemnified Party arising out of or related or attributable to (i) any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by Seller in Article III or in any certificate delivered by Seller at Closing in accordance herewith, (ii) any failure to perform or breach of any covenant or agreement of Seller set forth in this Agreement, (iii) any unpaid costs and expenses of the Company and its Subsidiary, including fees and disbursement of counsel, financial advisers and accountants, incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby on or prior to the Closing Date, and (iv) the amount of any Debt not included in the Closing Debt as finally determined pursuant to Article II.

(b) Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates (each, a “Seller Indemnified Party” and, collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) from and against any Losses that are imposed on or incurred by any Seller Indemnified Party arising out of or related or attributable to (i) any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by Purchaser in Article IV or in any certificate delivered by the Purchaser at Closing in accordance herewith, (ii) any failure to perform or breach of any covenant or agreement of Purchaser set forth in this Agreement, and (iii) any liability arising from or related to or with respect to the Business for any period following the Closing regardless of by whom or when such liabilities are asserted, except to the extent Seller is obligated to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnified Parties for any such liabilities pursuant to Section 11.2(a).

(c) The parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree that for purposes of this Article XI in respect of Seller’s representations and warranties, any and all “Material Adverse Effect,” “material adverse effect,” “materiality,” and similar exceptions and qualifiers and any similar thresholds set forth in such representations and warranties shall be disregarded for purposes of determining the amount of Losses resulting from breach.

Section 11.3 Indemnification Limitations.

(a) Except in the case of fraud, an Indemnified Party shall not be entitled to recover any Losses pursuant to Section 11.2(a)(i) for any matter until such time as the total amount of all Losses (including the Losses arising in connection with such matter and all other Losses arising from any other matters of the type referred to in Section 11.2(a)(i)) that have been directly or indirectly suffered or incurred by any one or more of the Indemnified Parties, or to which any one or more of the Indemnified Parties has or have otherwise become subject, exceeds $2,500,000 in the aggregate (the “Basket”). At such time as the cumulative amount of such Losses exceeds the Basket in the aggregate, the Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover for all such Losses incurred or sustained. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Basket shall not apply as a threshold to any and all Losses that a Purchaser Indemnified Party suffers, sustains, incurs, accrues or becomes subject to as a result of claims or payments made with respect to (i) any breach of the representations and warranties of Seller set forth in Section 3.1 (Organization and Good Standing), Section 3.2(a) or (b)(i) (Authority; Binding Obligation; No Conflict), Section 3.3 (Capitalization), Section 3.11 (Taxes), Section 3.23 (Relationship with Affiliates) and Section 3.25 (Brokers or Finders) or (ii) any Losses payable to a Purchaser Indemnified Party with respect to any and all claims for indemnification under Sections 11.2(a)(ii)-(iii) (collectively clauses (i) and (ii) hereof, “Special Claims”).

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) except with respect to Special Claims, the aggregate liability of Seller pursuant to its indemnification obligations under Section 11.2(a)(i) shall be $16,000,000, (ii) other than the case of fraud or willful breach, the aggregate liability of Seller pursuant to Article XI shall be limited to the Purchase Price, and (iii) Seller shall not be required to indemnify any Purchaser Indemnified Party and no Purchaser Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification, in each case under Section 11.2(a)(i) or Section 7.2 of this Agreement, with respect to any Loss (or series of related Losses), if the Loss (or series of Losses) from such breach is less than $30,000; provided, however, that this clause (iii) shall not be applicable to any such Loss (or series of related Losses) in the event that the aggregate amount of such Losses (and series of related Losses) to which this clause (iii) would otherwise be applicable absent the effect of this proviso exceeds $1,000,000, in which case such amounts shall count toward the Basket.

(c) Where an amount is determined to be payable to a Purchaser Indemnified Party as a result of a claim for indemnification made by such Indemnified Party under this Article XI and such amount has been (i) finally determined and subject to no further appeals or (ii) agreed to by Seller and Purchaser (either clauses (i) or (ii), a “Final Determination”), such amount shall be satisfied (A) first, if the Note has not then been paid, by reducing the outstanding amount of the Note by the amount of such claim, which reduction may result in Purchaser’s obligation to pay any amounts under the Note being extinguished in its entirety, (B) second, if the Earn-out Payment is determined to be payable pursuant to Section 2.7, but has not yet been paid, then by set off against the Earn-out Payment, and (C) third, if the Note and Earn-out have been paid or the amounts due under the Note and the Earn-out have been extinguished in their entirety by the operation of clause (A) or the Earn-out Payment is not yet then payable pursuant to Section 2.7, by recovering any additional amount from Seller directly.

Section 11.4 Indemnification Procedures.

(a) In the event that a Purchaser Indemnified Party or a Seller Indemnified Party (an “Indemnified Party”) is made a defendant in or party to any Proceeding instituted by any third party, the

liability or the costs or expenses of which are Losses indemnifiable pursuant to Article VII or this Article XI (any such third party action or proceeding being referred to as a “Third Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall give the other party (the “Indemnifying Party”) prompt written notice thereof; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect any Indemnified Party’s ability to seek reimbursement for Losses unless such failure has materially and adversely affected the Indemnifying Party’s ability to mitigate such Losses (and then only to extent the Indemnifying Party is adversely affected by such late notice); and provided further, that if relating to a breach of representation or warranties such written notice must in all events be provided on or before the expiry of the applicable survival period set forth in Section 11.1. Thereafter, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party, promptly following the Indemnified Party’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party relating to the Third Party Claim, other than those notices and documents separately addressed to the Indemnifying Party.

(b) The Indemnifying Party will have the right to assume the defense (at the Indemnifying Party’s expense) of the Indemnified Party against any Third Party Claim so long as (i) the Indemnifying Party gives written notice to the Indemnified Party within fifteen (15) days after it has been notified of the Third Party Claim that it will defend the Indemnified Party against the Third Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party acknowledges its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party for Losses related to such Third Party Claim, (ii) the Third Party Claim involves only money damages and does not seek an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party, (iii) the Indemnifying Party has not been advised by counsel that a conflict exists between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party in connection with conducting the defense of the Third Party Claim, (iv) the Third Party Claim does not relate to or otherwise arise in connection any criminal or regulatory enforcement action, (v) the Third Party Claim does not involve a current material customer or supplier of the Company or its Subsidiary, and (vi) the Indemnifying Party conducts the defense of the Third Party Claim diligently. If the Indemnifying Party does not, within fifteen (15) days of its receipt of notice of a Third Party Claim pursuant to Section 11.4(a), elect to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Third Party Claim which relates to any Losses indemnified against hereunder, the applicable Indemnified Party may defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with such Third Party Claim. If the applicable Indemnified Party defends any Third Party Claim pursuant to the preceding sentence or pursuant to subclauses (i) – (v) above of this Section 11.4(b), then the Indemnifying Party shall promptly reimburse the applicable Indemnified Party for the reasonable costs and expenses of defending such Third Party Claim upon submission of periodic bills. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, the applicable Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party shall allow the Indemnified Party a reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim and shall (and shall cause its counsel to) reasonably cooperate with the Indemnified Party’s counsel in its so participating.

(c) If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Parties shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof and the Indemnified Parties shall agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of a Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party may recommend if such settlement, compromise or discharge (i) by its terms obligates the Indemnifying Party (or its Affiliates) to pay the full amount of any Losses in connection with such Third Party Claim, (ii) does not require any payment or other action by, or limitation on, any Indemnified Party and (iii) fully releases such Indemnified Party in connection with such Third Party Claim.

(d) In the event that Purchaser or Seller becomes aware of a matter for which it will seek indemnification under this Article XI that does not involve a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall deliver a written notice of such claim with reasonable promptness to the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that with respect to a breach of representation or warranties such written notice must be delivered on or before the expiry of the applicable survival period set forth in Section 11.1. Such notice shall contain a brief description supporting such claim and contain a good faith, non-binding estimate of the aggregate dollar amount of actual and potential Losses that have arisen or may arise with respect to such claim. If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party that it does not dispute the claim described in such notice or fails to notify the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days after delivery of such notice by the Indemnified Party whether the Indemnifying Party disputes the claim described in such notice, the Losses in the amount specified in the Indemnified Party’s notice will be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to payment from the Indemnifying Party of such amount; provided that in the case of a Purchaser Indemnified Party, the Purchaser Indemnified Party shall recover such amount from Purchaser pursuant to Section 11.3. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its liability with respect to such claim, the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party or their respective designated Representatives will proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute, and if not resolved through the negotiations of such individuals within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the Indemnified Party’s notice of such claim (or such longer period as they may mutually agree), the Indemnified Party may commence legal proceedings to resolve such dispute.

Section 11.5 Calculation of Losses. In determining the amount of Losses due to any Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 11.2, the amount of Losses shall be net of (i) any amounts recovered by the Indemnified Party from any third party (including insurance proceeds) as a result of the facts or circumstances giving rise to the Losses (after deducting related costs and expenses of making such insurance claims and any resulting increased premium costs); and (ii) any Tax benefits or Tax losses, in each case net of Tax costs that are actually realized by the Indemnified Party as a result of the incurrence of Losses from which indemnification is sought]. The Indemnified Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue payment under or from any insurer from which such Indemnified Party is entitled to payment or indemnity in respect of such Losses.

Section 11.6 Treatment of Indemnification Payments. Indemnification payments made under this Article XI and Section 7.2 shall be treated as adjustments to the Purchase Price for all purposes.

Section 11.7 Duty to Mitigate. The Indemnified Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate or otherwise reduce the amount of any Losses incurred in connection with any matter with respect to which the Indemnified Parties are entitled to be held harmless, indemnified, compensated or reimbursed pursuant to this Article XI and Section 7.2, including taking commercially reasonable measures to attempt to recover any insurance proceeds available to offset such Losses under insurance policies maintained by any Indemnified Party.

Section 11.8 Consequential and Punitive Damages. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) no Person shall be liable to or otherwise responsible for punitive damages, except to the extent such punitive damages are required to be paid by the Indemnified Party to a third party, and (ii) no Person shall be liable to or otherwise responsible for consequential or incidental damages or for diminution in value or lost profits (other than Seller’s liability to the Purchaser

Indemnified Parties with respect to such Losses to the extent relating to the Business as conducted by the Company and its Subsidiary as of the Closing Date).

Section 11.9 Exclusive Remedies. The parties to this Agreement hereby agree that after the Closing the exclusive remedy for any breach of a representation or warranty, covenant or agreement (other than with respect to Taxes) contained in this Agreement shall be the indemnification provisions set out in this Article XI; provided, however, that nothing in this Article XI shall prohibit any party from seeking specific performance or injunctive relief against any other party in respect of a breach by such other party of any covenant hereunder.

ARTICLE XII

Each party agrees (a) to furnish to each other party such further information, (b) to execute and deliver to each other party such other documents, and (c) to do such other acts and things, all as each other party reasonably requests for the purpose of carrying out the intent of this Agreement and the documents referred to in this Agreement.

Section 12.7 Waiver. The parties’ rights and remedies are cumulative and not alternative. A party’s failure or delay in exercising any right, power, or privilege under this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement will not operate as a waiver of such right, power, or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right, power, or privilege will preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power, or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law: (a) no claim or right of a party arising out of this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement can be discharged by such party, in whole or in part, by a waiver or renunciation of the claim or right unless in writing signed by such party; (b) no waiver given by a party will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given; and (c) no notice to or demand on one party will be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of such party or of the right of the party giving such notice or demand to take further action without notice or demand as provided in this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement.

Section 12.8 Entire Agreement and Modification. This Agreement, together with the Annex, Exhibits, Schedules and the Nondisclosure Agreement, supersedes all prior agreements between the parties with respect to its subject matter and constitutes a complete and exclusive statement of the terms of the agreement between the parties with respect to its subject matter. This Agreement may not be amended except by a written agreement executed by the parties.

Section 12.9 Schedules. The Schedules include descriptions of some Contracts which may not meet the threshold requirements for disclosure that are set forth in this Agreement. The inclusion of such Contracts does not mean that all Contracts to which Company is a party are included in the Schedules or that such Contracts are deemed to be material. Similarly, the Schedules may include certain information that does not meet the minimum standards of materiality requiring disclosure thereunder. The inclusion of such information does not mean that all information contained therein is deemed to be material.

Section 12.10 Assignments and Successors. This Agreement shall not be assigned by any of the parties hereto (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other party; provided, however, that Purchaser may assign its rights to purchase the Shares hereunder to one or more of its Affiliates. Anything in this Agreement or any agreement, document or instrument related to this Agreement (any such related agreement, document or instrument, a “Related Agreement”) to the contrary notwithstanding, Purchaser shall have the right (without the prior written consent of Seller), at any time, and in its sole discretion, to assign for security interest purposes any or all of its rights under this Agreement and any Related Agreement to any lender or any representative or agent of any lender (any such lender, representative or agent, a “Lender Party”), providing financing to Purchaser, any of Purchaser’s permitted assigns, or any Affiliates of Purchaser or Purchaser’s permitted assigns (Purchaser, such assigns, and such Affiliates, collectively, the “Purchaser Parties”) and, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any event of default under the financing agreements between

any such Lender Party and any of the Purchaser Parties, such Lender Party may exercise any or all of the rights, interests, and remedies of any of the Purchaser Parties under this Agreement or any Related Agreement. Subject to the preceding two sentences, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 12.11 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the parties hereto. Any provision of this Agreement held invalid or unenforceable only in part or degree will remain in full force and effect to the extent not held invalid or unenforceable.

Section 12.12 Section Headings; Construction. The headings of Articles and Sections in this Agreement are provided for convenience only and will not affect its construction or interpretation. All references to “Article”, “Articles”, “Section” or “Sections” refer to the corresponding Article, Articles, Section or Sections (or sub-Section or sub-Sections) of this Agreement. All words used in this Agreement will be construed to be of such gender or number as the circumstances require. Unless otherwise expressly provided, the word “including” does not limit the preceding words or terms.

Section 12.13 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction.

(a) This Agreement and any claims arising out of or related hereto or to the Contemplated Transactions shall in all respects be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, including all matters of construction, validity and performance, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of law.

(b) Each of Seller and Purchaser agrees that any Dispute shall be resolved only in the Courts (whether in law or chancery) of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “New York Courts“). In that context, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of Seller and Purchaser by this Agreement irrevocably and unconditionally:

(i) submits for itself and its property in any Proceeding relating to this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the New York Courts, and agrees that all claims in respect of any such Proceeding shall be heard and determined in the New York Courts;

(ii) consents that any such Action may and shall be brought in the New York Courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have and agrees not to assert, as a defense in any action, suit or proceeding, that it is not subject thereto or that such Proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in said courts or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this Agreement may not be enforced in or by such courts;

(iii) agrees that service of process in any such Proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy of such process by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to such party at its address as provided in Section 12.4;

(iv) agrees that it will not bring any Proceeding in any court other than the New York Courts; and

(v) agrees that nothing in this Agreement shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by the Laws of the State of New York.

Section 12.14 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original copy of this Agreement and all of which, when taken together, will be deemed to constitute one and the same agreement.

Section 12.15 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as provided in Section 6.1 and Article XI, Section 12.10 and this Section 12.15, this Agreement is not intended to confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns any rights or remedies hereunder. Seller expressly agrees and acknowledges that neither ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital Partners, LLC, ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Capital Finance, LLC, nor their respective funds shall have any liability or obligation (whether known or unknown, whether asserted or unasserted, whether accrued or unaccrued, whether liquidated or unliquidated, whether fixed, absolute or contingent, whether in contract, tort or otherwise and including all fees, costs, expenses, damages, losses, fines, penalties and assessments relating thereto) under this Agreement in connection with the Debt Financing, except in connection with the exercise of any rights and remedies assigned pursuant to Section 12.10. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital Partners, LLC, ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Capital Finance, LLC, and their respective funds are third party beneficiaries of the immediately preceding sentence.

Section 12.16 Other Remedies; Specific Performance. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any and all remedies expressly conferred upon any party by the terms of this Agreement will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred by this Agreement, or by law or equity upon such party, and the exercise by any party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties hereto shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of the United States or any state having jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

Section 12.17 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE FINANCING OR THE CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTIONS. EACH PARTY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTY HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THE TRANSACTION AGREEMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 12.17.

Section 12.18 Incorporation by Reference. All references made in this Agreement to any Section, Article, Annex, Exhibit or Schedule which is not otherwise expressly indicated to be a reference to another document shall be deemed to be a reference to a Section, Article, an Annex, Exhibit or Schedule to this Agreement. All such Annexes, Exhibits and Schedules are incorporated in and made part of this Agreement by reference.

Section 12.19 Computation of Time. If the day on which any delivery or performance is due under this Agreement is not a Business Day, the time for satisfaction of such delivery or performance shall be extended without any action on the part of any party to the next succeeding Business Day.
