SECTION 2.07 Post-Closing Adjustment of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall be subject to adjustment after the Closing as specified in this Section 2.07:

(a) Reference Balance Sheet. Attached hereto as Exhibit 2.07(a) is the unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries as of July 31, 2009 (the “Reference Balance Sheet”) and the calculation of the Net Working Capital as of July 31, 2009 calculated in reference thereto (the “Reference NWC”).

(b) As promptly as practicable, but in any event within the earlier of (i) 90 calendar days following the Closing Date or (ii) 10 calendar days following the completion of the audit of the Company for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2009, the Purchaser shall deliver to the Seller an unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Company and Company Subsidiaries as of 11:59 p.m. on the date immediately preceding the Closing Date (the “Closing Balance Sheet”) and a calculation of Net Working Capital based on such Closing Balance Sheet. The Closing Balance Sheet shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP and in a manner consistent with that used to prepare the Reference Balance Sheet and the Net Working Capital shall be calculated in the same manner as was used to calculate the Reference NWC; provided, however, that if there is a conflict between GAAP and the manner in which the Reference Balance Sheet was prepared, GAAP will nonetheless be applied in the preparation of the Closing Balance Sheet. Unless within 15 calendar days after its receipt of the Closing Balance Sheet, the Seller shall deliver to the Purchaser a statement describing its objections to the Closing Balance Sheet (a “Statement of Objection”), the Net Working Capital as set forth on the Closing Balance Sheet shall be final and binding on the parties hereto and the Closing Balance Sheet shall be the final Closing Date Statement hereunder.

(i) If the Seller shall deliver to the Purchaser a timely Statement of Objection, the Seller and the Purchaser and their respective independent accountants shall negotiate in good faith and use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve any dispute. If a resolution is reached, such resolution shall be final and binding on the parties and the Net Working Capital shall be set forth on a mutually acceptable statement and such statement shall be the Closing Date Statement. If a final resolution is not reached within 30 days after the Seller has submitted its Statement of Objection, any remaining disputes shall be resolved by Ernst & Young LLP or such other independent accounting firm of national reputation as may be mutually acceptable to the Seller and the Purchaser (the “Reviewing Accountants”). The Reviewing Accountants shall be instructed to review this Agreement and the disputed items or amounts for the purpose of calculating Net Working Capital (it being understood that in making such calculation, the Reviewing Accountants shall be functioning as an expert and not as an arbitrator). In making such calculation, the Reviewing Accountants shall consider only those items or amounts in the Closing Balance Sheet and the Purchaser’s calculation of Net Working Capital as to which the Seller has disagreed. The Reviewing Accountants’ determination of any disputed items or amounts and the calculation of Net Working Capital shall be within the range of the amount thereof shown in the Closing Balance Sheet and the amount shown in the Statement of Objection. The Reviewing Accountants shall deliver to the Purchaser and the Seller, as promptly as practicable (but in any case no later than 30 days from the date of engagement of the Reviewing Accountants), a statement (the “Accountant Statement”) setting forth such calculation of Net Working Capital. Such statement shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Purchaser and the Seller, and the Accountant Statement shall be the Closing Date Statement.

(ii) The fees and expenses of the Reviewing Accountants shall be borne by the Purchaser and the Seller in inverse proportion as they may prevail on matters resolved by the Reviewing Accountants, and such proportionate allocation shall also be determined by the Reviewing Accountants when their determination is rendered on the merits of the matter submitted. For illustration purposes only, (i) if the total amount of disputed items by the Seller is $100,000 and the Purchaser is awarded $50,000 by the Reviewing Accountants, then the Seller and the Purchaser shall bear the Reviewing Accountants’ fees and expenses equally; or (ii) if the total amount of disputed items by the Seller is $100,000 and the Purchaser is awarded $75,000 by the Reviewing Accountants, then the Purchaser shall bear 25% and the Seller shall bear 75% of the Reviewing Accountants’ fees and expenses. The Seller and the Purchaser shall cooperate with each other and any Reviewing Accountants in connection with the matters contemplated by this Section 2.07, in each case including by furnishing such information and access to books, records (including accountants’ work papers), personnel and properties as may be reasonably requested.

(iii) In acting under this Agreement, the Reviewing Accountants shall be entitled to the privileges and immunities of arbitrators, but shall not otherwise be deemed to be arbitrators for purposes of this Agreement or any other purpose.

(d) Purchase Price Adjustment. If the Net Working Capital shown on the Closing Date Statement is greater than the Target NWC (the value of such excess, the “Excess Amount”), the Purchaser shall promptly, and in any case within five Business Days after the date that the Closing Date Statement becomes final, pay to the Seller the Excess Amount. If the Net Working Capital shown on the Closing Date Statement is less than the Target NWC (the absolute value of such shortfall, the “Shortfall Amount”), the Seller shall promptly, and in any case within five Business Days after the date that the Closing Date Statement becomes final, pay to the Purchaser the Shortfall Amount.

SECTION 2.08 Purchase Price Acceleration. (a) At any time following the one-year anniversary of the Closing Date, the Purchaser may, in its sole discretion, pay in full the remaining Annual Payments to be paid pursuant to Section 2.03(a)(iii) by paying to the Seller the Annual Acceleration Payment on the Annual Acceleration Payment Date, as set forth on Exhibit 2.08(a).

(b) At any time following the one-year anniversary of the Closing Date, the Purchaser may, in its sole discretion, pay in full that portion of the remaining Quarterly Earn-Out Payments to be paid pursuant to Section 2.03(a)(iv) relating to Existing Client WSEEs and Transferred ASO Employees, by paying to the Seller the Quarterly Acceleration Payment on the Quarterly Acceleration Payment Date, as set forth on Exhibit 2.08(b).

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, the Purchaser shall not be entitled to accelerate the New Client Quarterly Payments or the Common Client Quarterly Payments, and the Purchaser shall be obligated to continue to make such payments in accordance with Section 2.03(a)(iv) notwithstanding any acceleration under Sections 2.08(a) and (b) above.

(d) In the event that after the Closing Date (A) there occurs a Change of Control of the Purchaser or (B) the Purchaser, the Company or the Company Subsidiaries make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or any proceeding shall be instituted by or against the Purchaser or any Subsidiary of the Purchaser conducting a PEO Business and insured by the Seller’s insurance company Subsidiaries or Affiliates seeking to adjudicate any of them a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking liquidation, winding up or reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, protection, relief or composition of its debts under any Law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization, the Seller may, in either case in its sole discretion, upon notice to the Purchaser (such notice, the “Acceleration Notice”), elect to have paid in full by the Purchaser (i) the remaining Annual Payments to be paid pursuant to Section 2.03(a)(iii) by payment to the Seller of the Annual Acceleration Payment on the Annual Acceleration Payment Date as set forth on Exhibit 2.08(a) (provided that for purposes of this Section 2.08(d), the Purchaser shall deliver the Annual Acceleration Statement to the Seller within 5 Business Days of receipt of the Acceleration Notice) and (ii) the Change of Control Quarterly Payment, provided, however, that if the Quarterly Acceleration Payment payable if the date of receipt of the Acceleration Notice were the Quarterly Acceleration Payment Date is less than $500,000, then the Purchaser shall pay to the Seller an amount equal to Quarterly Acceleration Payment in full satisfaction of the payment required by clause (ii) above.

The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that in order for the Seller to provide to the Purchaser and its Subsidiaries the Master Policy or Master Policies referenced in Section 5.09(c), the Seller will require the Purchaser to provide the information described in this Section 5.09(e) and such other information as the Seller shall reasonably request in connection therewith. In furtherance of the foregoing, the parties hereto agree to negotiate in good faith to develop appropriate procedures for the provision of such information by no later than November 30, 2009 and, if such procedures, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Seller, are not agreed upon by such date, then the Seller's insurance Subsidiaries shall not be required to comply with their obligations under Section 5.09(c) and may issue MCWCPs instead of a Master Policy or Master Policies.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.09, in the event that any payments have been accelerated under Section 2.08(d) hereof, the Seller may, at its sole and absolute election, determine to terminate, in whole or in part, and at any time and from time to time thereafter, the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.09.

(g) Except as set forth in the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.09, the Seller’s insurance Subsidiaries shall be entitled to terminate, effective from and after the Closing, any insurance policy maintained by any of the Seller’s insurance Subsidiaries for the benefit of the Company or the Company Subsidiaries, including without limitation any property or other casualty insurance including workers compensation polices covering SHRS VI.

SECTION 5.12 Bulk Transfer Laws. The Purchaser hereby waives compliance by the Seller with any applicable bulk sale or bulk transfer laws of any jurisdiction in connection with the sale of the Purchased Assets to the Purchaser (other than any obligations with respect to the application of the proceeds therefrom).

(b) Prior to the Closing, the Seller shall, with respect to each insurance policy listed on ‎Section 5.14(b)‎ of the Disclosure Letter (such policies being “Excluded Policies”), use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) notify the carrier under such Excluded Policy of the change of control that will result from the Closing, (ii) request that such Excluded Policy coverage continue until termination of the policy period but only in respect of claims for actions taking place prior to the Closing; and (iii) if necessary, request the extended reporting periods, if any, available without cost under such Excluded Policy.

In furtherance of the foregoing, the parties agree to negotiate in good faith and enter into at the Closing one or more transition services agreements providing for the services set forth in Exhibit 5.16 hereto and otherwise in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to each of the Seller and the Purchaser (the “Transition Services Agreement(s)”), it being acknowledged and agreed that the parties shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to cause the definitive terms of such Transition Services Agreement(s) to be finalized by no later than November 15, 2009.

SECTION 5.17 Further Action. Each of the parties hereto shall use all reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all appropriate action, do or cause to be done all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law, and to execute and deliver such documents and other papers, as may be required to carry out the provisions of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements to which it is a party and consummate and make effective the transactions hereby and thereby contemplated hereby and thereby. Subsequent to the Closing, the Seller and the Company Subsidiaries shall consent to and execute any and all documentation necessary to support the transfers of state unemployment tax experience as the Purchaser shall reasonably request.

EMPLOYEE MATTERS

SECTION 6.01 Termination of Employees. As of the Closing, the Seller, the Company or the Company Subsidiaries, as the case may be, shall terminate the employment of all employees of the Company or the Company Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Terminated Employees”) other than those employees of the Company or the Company Subsidiaries who are SHRS WSEEs. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall not terminate any SHRS ASO Employees pursuant to this Section 6.01.

Except as set forth in Section 6.03, the Purchaser shall not be liable to the Seller, the Company or the Company Subsidiaries for any severance obligations, benefit obligations or any other Liabilities in connection with the termination of the Terminated Employees, all of which Liabilities shall either be paid by the Seller or accrued by the Company prior to the Closing (in which case they shall be paid by the Purchaser).

SECTION 6.03 COBRA. The Purchaser shall, at its cost, provide and be solely responsible for any continuation coverage required under COBRA to each individual who is a current or former employee of the Company or the Company Subsidiaries (including without limitation any SHRS WSEE or SHRS ASO Employee) or otherwise a “qualified beneficiary” as that term is defined in COBRA in respect of any such current or former employee, in any event regardless of whether the applicable “qualifying event” (as defined in COBRA) occurs before, on or after the Closing Date, and including without limitation any COBRA obligations arising out of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement.

ARTICLE VII

TAX MATTERS

SECTION 7.01 Indemnity. (a) The Seller agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser, the Company and each Company Subsidiary against Excluded Taxes and, except as otherwise provided in Section 7.04, against any loss, damage, liability or expense, including reasonable fees for attorneys and other outside consultants incurred in contesting or otherwise in connection with any such Excluded Taxes; provided, however, that the Seller shall have no obligation to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser, the Company or any Company Subsidiary unless and until the amount of Taxes paid by the Purchaser, the Company or any Company Subsidiary that would otherwise be subject to indemnification by the Seller pursuant to this Article VII (including payments made to the Seller pursuant to Section 7.02(c)) exceeds the amount of the reserves for Taxes of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries which is used in the calculation of the Net Working Capital calculated in reference to the Closing Balance Sheet.

(b) In the case of Taxes that are payable with respect to a 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 either (x) based upon or related to income or receipts, or (y) imposed in connection with any sale or other transfer or assignment of property (real or personal, tangible or intangible) (other than conveyances pursuant to this Agreement, as provided under Section 7.07), 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 the assets of the Company or any Company Subsidiary 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 paragraph (b) taking into account 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 (b) shall be computed by reference to the level of such items on the Closing Date. All determinations necessary to effect the foregoing allocations shall be made in a manner consistent with prior practice of the Seller, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries.

SECTION 7.02 Returns and Payments. (a) From the date of this Agreement through and after the Closing, the Seller shall prepare or cause to be prepared all Tax Returns relating to the Purchased Assets, the Business, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries that are due on or before or relate to any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date (and the Purchaser shall do the same with respect to any taxable period ending after the Closing Date). Tax Returns of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries or relating to the Purchased Assets or the Business not yet filed for any taxable period that begins before the Closing Date shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practices employed with respect to the Seller, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries (except to the extent that counsel for the Seller or the Company renders a legal opinion that there is no reasonable basis in law therefor or determines that a Tax Return cannot be so prepared and filed without being subject to penalties). With respect to any such Tax Return required to be prepared by the Purchaser or the Seller, the preparing party shall provide the other party and its authorized representatives with a copy of such completed Tax Return and, if applicable, a statement certifying the amount of Tax shown on such Tax Return that is allocable to such other party pursuant to Section 7.01(b) and/or payable to such other party pursuant to Section 7.02(c), together with appropriate supporting information and schedules at least 20 Business Days prior to the due date (including any extension hereof) for the filing of such Tax Return, for all Taxes with the exception of payroll taxes and five Business Days for such Tax Return that is for payroll taxes and such other party and its authorized representatives shall have the right to review and comment on such Tax Return and statement prior to the filing of such Tax Return.

(b) The Seller shall pay or cause to be paid when due and payable all Taxes with respect to the Company and the Company Subsidiaries or relating to the Purchased Assets or the Business for any Pre-Closing Period (subject to its rights set forth in Section 7.02(c)), and the Purchaser shall so pay or cause to be paid all Taxes for any Post-Closing Period (subject to its right of indemnification from the Seller by the date set forth in Section 7.05 for Taxes attributable to the portion of any Straddle Period pursuant to Section 7.01(a) and Section 7.01(b)).

(c) The Purchaser shall pay or cause to be paid to the Seller at least three Business Days before the due date of the applicable estimated or final Tax Return required to be filed by the Seller, without regard to whether the Tax Return shows overall net income or loss for such period, an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount of Excluded Taxes shown as unpaid and owed on such Tax Return and (ii) the amount of the reserves for Taxes of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries which is used in the calculation of the Net Working Capital calculated in reference to the Closing Balance Sheet for such Excluded Tax reduced by any amount previously paid by Purchaser either to the Seller or an appropriate Governmental Authority, in each case in respect of Excluded Taxes. The Seller shall be entitled to recover professional fees and related costs that it may reasonably incur to enforce the provisions of this Section 7.02(c).

(d) The Purchaser shall file or otherwise furnish all such Tax Returns that it is required to furnish (including Tax Returns for Pre-Closing Periods that are not due until after the Closing Date that relate to payroll taxes) in proper form to the appropriate Governmental Authority (or cause to be prepared and filed or so furnished) in a timely manner and shall provide proof of such timely filing to the Seller promptly after the filing of any Pre-Closing Period or Straddle Period Tax Returns and the Seller shall file or otherwise furnish all such tax Returns that it is required to furnish in proper form to the appropriate Governmental Authority (or cause to be prepared and filed or so furnished) in a timely manner and shall provide proof of such timely filing to the Seller promptly after the filing.

SECTION 7.03 Tax Refunds. Any Tax refund (including any interest with respect thereto) relating to the Purchased Assets, the Business, the Company or any Company Subsidiary for any Pre-Closing Period shall be the property of the Purchaser, and if received by the Seller or any Company Subsidiary shall be paid over promptly to the Purchaser.

SECTION 7.04 Contests. (a) After the Closing, the Purchaser shall promptly notify the Seller in writing of any written notice of a proposed assessment or claim in an audit or administrative or judicial proceeding of the Purchaser or any of the Purchased Assets, the Business, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries which, if determined adversely to the taxpayer, would be grounds for indemnification under this Article VII; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice will not affect the Purchaser’s right to indemnification under this Article VII except to the extent, if any, that, but for such failure, the Seller could have avoided all or a portion of the Tax liability in question.

(b) In the case of an audit or administrative or judicial proceeding that relates to Pre-Closing Periods, the Seller shall have the right at its expense to participate in and control the conduct of such audit or proceeding, but only to the extent that such audit or proceeding relates solely to a potential adjustment for which the Seller may be liable; the Purchaser also may participate in any such audit or proceeding and, if the Seller does not assume the defense of any such audit or proceeding, the Purchaser may defend the same in such manner as it may deem appropriate, including settling such audit or proceeding after five Business Days prior written notice to the Seller setting forth the terms and conditions of settlement. In the event that issues relating to a potential adjustment for which the Seller may be liable are required to be contested in the same audit or proceeding as separate issues relating to a potential adjustment for which the Purchaser would be liable, the Purchaser shall have the right, at its expense, to control the audit or proceeding with respect to the latter issues.

(c) With respect to issues relating to a potential adjustment for which both the Seller and the Purchaser or the Company or any Company Subsidiary could be liable, (i) both the Seller and the Purchaser may participate in the audit or proceeding, and (ii) the audit or proceeding shall be controlled by that party which would bear the burden of the greater portion of the sum of the adjustment and any corresponding adjustments that may reasonably be anticipated for future taxable periods. The principle set forth in this Section 7.04(c) also shall govern for purposes of deciding any issue that must be decided jointly (including choice of judicial forum) in situations in which separate issues are otherwise controlled under this Article VII by the Purchaser and the Seller.

(d) With respect to any Tax audit or proceeding that could affect a taxable period that begins before the Closing Date, neither the Purchaser nor the Seller shall enter into any compromise or agree to settle any claim pursuant to such audit or proceeding which would adversely affect the other party for such taxable period or a subsequent taxable period without the written consent of the other party, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld. The Purchaser and the Seller agree to cooperate, and the Purchaser agrees to cause the Company and the Subsidiaries to cooperate, in the defense against or compromise of any claim in any such audit or proceeding.

SECTION 7.05 Time of Payment. Payment by the Seller of any amounts due under this Article VII in respect of Taxes shall be made (a) at least three Business Days before the due date of the applicable estimated or final Tax Return required to be filed by the Purchaser on which is required to be reported income for a taxable period ending after the Closing Date for which the Seller is responsible under Section 7.01(a) and Section 7.01(b) without regard to whether the Tax Return shows overall net income or loss for such period; provided, however, that payment by the Seller shall not be required any sooner than 17 Business Days after a copy of such Tax Return is provided to Seller pursuant to Section 7.02, and (b) other than with respect to those amounts described in clause (a) of this sentence, within three Business Days following an agreement between the Seller and the Purchaser that an indemnity amount is payable, an assessment of a Tax by a taxing authority, or a “determination” as defined in Section 1313(a) of the Code. If liability under this Article VII is in respect of costs or expenses other than Taxes, payment by the Seller of any amounts due under this Article VII shall be made within thirty Business Days after the date when the Seller has been notified by the Purchaser that the Seller has a liability for a determinable amount under this Article VII and is provided with calculations or other materials supporting such liability.

SECTION 7.06 Tax Cooperation and Exchange of Information. The Seller and the Purchaser shall provide each other with such cooperation and information as either of them reasonably may request of the other (and the Purchaser shall cause the Company and the Company Subsidiaries to provide such cooperation and information) in filing any Tax Return, amended Tax Return or claim for refund, determining a liability for Taxes or a right to a refund of Taxes or participating in or conducting any audit or other proceeding in respect of Taxes or making representations to or furnishing information to parties subsequently desiring to purchase any part of the Purchased Assets, the Business, the Company or the Company Subsidiaries from the Purchaser. Such cooperation and information shall include providing copies of relevant Tax Returns or portions thereof, together with related work papers and documents relating to rulings or other determinations by taxing authorities. The Seller and the Purchaser shall make themselves (and their respective employees) reasonably available on a mutually convenient basis to provide explanations of any documents or information provided under this Section 7.06. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 5.02 hereto, each of the Seller and the Purchaser shall retain all Tax Returns, work papers and all material records or other documents in its possession (or in the possession of its Affiliates) relating to Tax matters relevant to the Purchased Assets, the Business, the Company or any Company Subsidiary for any taxable period that includes the Closing Date and for all prior taxable periods until the later of (i) the expiration of the statute of limitations of the taxable periods to which such Tax Returns and other documents relate, without regard to extensions or (ii) six years following the due date (without extension) for such Tax Returns. After such time, before the Seller or the Purchaser shall dispose of any such documents in its possession (or in the possession of its Affiliates), the other party shall be given an opportunity, after 90 days prior written notice, to remove and retain all or any part of such documents as such other party may select (at such other party’s expense). Any information obtained under this Section 7.05 shall be kept confidential, except as may be otherwise necessary in connection with the filing of Tax Returns or claims for refund or in conducting an audit or other proceeding.

SECTION 7.07 Conveyance Taxes. The Purchaser shall be liable for and shall hold the Seller harmless against any Conveyance Taxes which become payable in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Purchaser, after the review and consent by the Seller, shall file such applications and documents as shall permit any such Conveyance Tax to be assessed and paid on or prior to the Closing in accordance with any available pre-sale filing procedure. The Seller shall execute and deliver all instruments and certificates necessary to enable the Purchaser to comply with the foregoing. The Seller shall complete and execute a resale or other exemption certificate with respect to the inventory items sold hereunder, and shall provide the Purchaser with an executed copy thereof.

SECTION 7.08 Miscellaneous. (a) The Seller and the Purchaser agree to treat all payments made by either of them to or for the benefit of the other (including any payments to the Company or any Company Subsidiary) under this Article VII, under other indemnity provisions of this Agreement and for any misrepresentations or breaches of warranties or covenants as adjustments to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes.

(b) All payments payable under any tax sharing agreement or arrangement between the Seller and the Company or any Company Subsidiary for any taxable period ending on or prior to the Closing shall be calculated on a basis consistent with past practice and shall be payable in full prior to the Closing. Any such tax sharing agreement or arrangement between the Seller and the Company or any Company Subsidiary shall be terminated prior to the Closing.

(c) Notwithstanding any provisions in this Agreement to the contrary, the obligations of the Seller to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries pursuant to this Article VII, and the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.31, shall terminate at the close of business on the 90th 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).

(d) From and after the date of this Agreement, the Seller shall not, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser (which may, in its sole and absolute discretion, withhold such consent), make, or cause or permit to be made, any Tax election that would affect the Company or any Company Subsidiary except to the extent required by Law.

(e) For purposes of this Article VII, “the Purchaser” and “the Seller”, respectively, shall include each member of the affiliated group of corporations of which it is or becomes a member (other than the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, except to the extent expressly referenced).

(f) The Purchaser shall be entitled to recover professional fees and related costs that it may reasonably incur to enforce the provisions of this Article VII.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event that any provision of this Agreement regarding the rights and obligations of the parties with respect to indemnification for any and all Tax matters conflicts with the provisions of this Article VII, other than the limits on indemnification for Taxes described in Section 9.04, such rights and obligations shall be governed solely by this Article VII.

The Purchaser and its Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns (each a “Purchaser Indemnified Party”) shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Seller for and against any and all Liabilities, losses, diminution in value, damages, claims, costs and expenses, interest, awards, judgments and penalties (including attorneys’ and consultants’ fees and expenses) actually suffered or incurred by them (including any Action brought or otherwise initiated by any of them) (hereinafter a “Loss”), arising out of or resulting from:

(i) the breach of any representation or warranty made by the Seller contained in this Agreement;

(ii) the breach of any covenant or agreement by the Seller contained in this Agreement;

(iii) any and all Losses suffered or incurred by the Purchaser, the Company or any Company Subsidiary by reason of or in connection with any claim or cause of action of any third party to the extent arising out of any action, inaction, event, condition, liability or obligation of the Seller occurring or existing prior to the Closing and not relating to the Company, the Company Subsidiaries or the Business;

(iv) Taxes, as set forth in Section 7.01;

(v) Liabilities relating to Terminated Employees or amounts payable pursuant to Section 6.02;

(vi) Litigation Losses;

(vii) Losses arising from or related to workers’ compensation insurance and workers’ compensation claims, including claims incurred prior to the Closing Date but not reported until thereafter;

(viii) Liabilities arising from or related to any failure to comply with laws relating to bulk transfers or bulk sales with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (notwithstanding the waiver contained in Section 5.12); or

(ix) Liabilities resulting directly or indirectly from the provision by the Seller to the Purchaser of inaccurate information pursuant to Section 3.27(i).

To the extent that the Seller’s undertakings set forth in this Section 9.02 may be unenforceable, the Seller shall contribute the maximum amount that it is permitted to contribute under applicable Law to the payment and satisfaction of all Losses incurred by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties.

SECTION 9.03 Indemnification by the Purchaser. The Seller and its Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns (each a “Seller Indemnified Party”) shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Purchaser for and against any and all Losses, arising out of or resulting from:

(i) the breach of any representation or warranty made by the Purchaser contained in this Agreement; or

(ii) the breach of any covenant or agreement by the Purchaser contained in this Agreement;

(iii) any and all Losses suffered or incurred by the Seller by reason of or in connection with any claim or cause of action of any third party to the extent arising out of any action, inaction, event, condition, liability or obligation of the Purchaser, the Company or the Company Subsidiaries occurring after the Closing, including without limitation any failure by the Purchaser, the Company or the Company Subsidiaries to make any payment under any contract, lease or agreement guaranteed by the Seller;

(iv) Liabilities resulting directly or indirectly from the provision by the Purchaser to the Seller of inaccurate information pursuant to Section 5.09; or

(v) Liabilities relating to the COBRA obligations of the Purchaser or amounts payable pursuant to Section 6.03.

To the extent that the Purchaser’s undertakings set forth in this Section 9.03 may be unenforceable, the Purchaser shall contribute the maximum amount that it is permitted to contribute under applicable Law to the payment and satisfaction of all Losses incurred by the Seller Indemnified Parties.

SECTION 9.04 Limits on Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, except as set forth below: (a) an Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 9.02 or 9.03, unless and until the aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses which may be recovered from the Indemnifying Party equals or exceeds $100,000, after which the Indemnifying Party shall be liable only for those Losses in excess of $100,000; (b) no Losses may be claimed under Section 9.02 or Section 9.03 by an Indemnified Party or shall be reimbursable by an Indemnifying Party or shall be included in calculating the aggregate Losses set forth in clause (a) above other than Losses in excess of $5,000 resulting from any single or aggregated claims arising out of the same facts, events or circumstances; and (c) the maximum amount of indemnifiable Losses which may be recovered from an Indemnified Party arising out of or resulting from the causes set forth in Section 9.02 or Section 9.03, as the case may be, shall be an amount equal to $2,225,000. The provisions of this Section 9.04 shall not apply with respect to indemnification (A) of either party for Taxes, provided that an Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any claim for indemnification for Taxes unless and until the aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses (including Losses other than for Taxes) which may be recovered from the Indemnifying Party equals or exceeds $100,000, after which the Indemnifying Party shall be liable only for those Losses in excess of $100,000, (B) by the Seller of the Purchaser for Losses arising from or related to workers’ compensation insurance and workers’ compensation claims, including claims incurred prior to the Closing Date but not reported until thereafter, (C) by the Seller of the Purchaser for (x) Litigation Losses or (y) Liabilities resulting directly or indirectly from the provision by the Purchaser to the Seller of inaccurate information pursuant to Section 3.27(i), or (D) by the Purchaser of the Seller for (x) Liabilities resulting directly or indirectly from the provision by the Purchaser to the Seller of inaccurate information pursuant to Section 5.09 (provided the Seller has not terminated its obligations under Section 5.09(c) pursuant to Section 5.09(e)) or (y) relating to the COBRA obligations of the Purchaser or amounts payable pursuant to Section 6.03.

SECTION 9.05 Notice of Loss; Third Party Claims. (a) An Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party notice of any matter which an Indemnified Party has determined has given or could give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement, promptly after, and in any event within 60 days, of such determination, stating the amount of the Loss, if known, and method of computation thereof, and containing a reference to the provisions of this Agreement in respect of which such right of indemnification is claimed or arises. The failure to provide notice within such time period, however, shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article IX except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure and shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any other obligation or Liability that it may have to any Indemnified Party otherwise than under this Article IX. Except where a claim by the Indemnified Party relates to a Third Party Claim (in which case, the provisions of Section 9.05(b) below will apply, if the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within 30 days following its receipt of such notice that the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party hereunder, such claim specified by the Indemnified Party in such notice shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party hereunder and, if the Indemnifying Party is the Purchaser, the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such liability to the Indemnified Party on demand, and if the Indemnifying Party is the Seller, the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such liability to the Indemnified Party as set forth in Section 9.06; provided, however, in the case of any notice in which the amount of the claim (or any portion thereof) is estimated, such payments shall be made only on such later date when the amount of such claim (or such portion thereof) becomes finally determined. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its liability with respect to such claim, as provided above, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute and, if not resolved through negotiations, such dispute shall be resolved pursuant to Sections 11.11 and 11.12 hereof. If the Indemnifying Party agrees that it has an indemnification obligation but asserts that it is obligated to pay a lesser amount than that claimed by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall pay such lesser amount promptly to the Indemnified Party, without prejudice to or waiver of the Indemnified Party’s claim for the difference.

(b) (i) If an Indemnified Party shall receive notice of any Action, audit, demand or assessment (each, a “Third Party Claim”) against it or which may give rise to a claim for Loss under this Article IX, within 30 days of the receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party notice of such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article IX except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure and shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any other obligation or Liability that it may have to any Indemnified Party otherwise than under this Article IX. If the Indemnifying Party acknowledges in writing its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party hereunder against any Losses that may result from such Third Party Claim, then the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume and control the defense of such Third Party Claim at its expense and through counsel of its choice if it gives notice of its intention to do so to the Indemnified Party within five days of the receipt of such notice from the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that if there exists or is reasonably likely to exist a conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate in the judgment of the Indemnified Party, based on the advice of counsel, for the same counsel to represent both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to retain its own counsel in each jurisdiction for which the Indemnified Party determines counsel is required, at the expense of the Indemnified Party.

(ii) In the event that the Indemnifying Party exercises the right to undertake any such defense against any such Third Party Claim as provided above, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnified Party’s possession or under the Indemnified Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party. Similarly, in the event the Indemnified Party is, directly or indirectly, conducting the defense against any such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate with the Indemnified Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnified Party, at the Indemnified Party’s expense, all such witnesses, records, materials and information in the Indemnifying Party’s possession or under the Indemnifying Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnified Party. The party controlling the defense of the Third Party Claim shall at all times use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Indemnified Party or the Indemnifying Party, as the case may be, reasonably apprised of the status of the defense.

(iii) No Third Party Claim may be settled by the Indemnifying Party without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, unless such settlement includes as an unconditional term thereof the delivery by the claimant to the Indemnified Party of a written release from all liability in respect of such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnified Party is in control of the defense of the Third Party Claim, it may settle the claim on behalf of and for the account and risk of the Indemnifying Party, who shall be bound by the result; provided, however, that it shall have exercised efforts in resolving such Third Party Claim consistent with the efforts that it would have exercised if such settlement was for its own account; and provided, further, that if a settlement offer for monetary damages is made by the claimant that includes an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party in writing of its willingness to accept such settlement offer and pay the amount called for by such offer, then the Indemnifying Party’s obligation with respect to such Third Party Claim shall be limited to the lesser of (A) the amount of the settlement offer and (B) the aggregate Losses of the Indemnified Party with respect to such Claim.

SECTION 9.06 Right of Set-Off. The Purchaser shall have the right to set-off any amount finally determined in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 9.05 hereof to be owed to the Purchaser under Article VII and this Article IX against any portion of the Purchase Price yet to be paid to the Seller; to the extent any amount payable to the Purchaser pursuant to Article VII or this Article IX remain outstanding after such set-off, the Seller shall pay all such amounts by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, in the event that any amount determined in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 9.05 hereof to be owed to the Purchaser under Article VII and this Article IX is greater than an amount equal to four times the most recently paid Quarterly Earn-Out Payment (the value of such excess, the “Set-Off Excess Amount”), the Seller shall pay to the Purchaser that portion of the Set-Off Excess Amount that is equal to the amount of the Purchase Price which has been paid to the Seller as of such date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Purchaser; the remainder of any amounts payable to the Purchaser under Article VII and this Article IX shall be paid by the Seller to the Purchaser in accordance with the foregoing sentence.

SECTION 9.07 Sole Remedy.

(a) The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that, if the Closing occurs, its sole and exclusive remedy (other than for actual fraud) following the Closing with respect to any and all claims, including Third-Party Claims, relating to the subject matter of this Agreement shall be pursuant to the provisions set forth in this Article IX; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall prevent an Indemnified Party from pursuing remedies as may be available to such party under applicable Law in the event of an Indemnifying Party’s failure to comply with its indemnification obligations hereunder.

(b) The Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to the rights of the Indemnified Party (to the extent permitted by the terms of such insurance agreements) in respect of any insurance relating to the Loss to the extent of any indemnification payments made hereunder. The Indemnified Party shall be obligated to use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate the amount of any Loss for which such party is entitled to seek indemnification hereunder. Any liability for indemnification hereunder shall be determined without duplication of recovery by reason of the state of facts giving rise to such liability constituting a breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.

(c) The Seller and the Purchaser agree to treat (and cause their Affiliates to treat) any indemnification payment under this Agreement as an adjustment to the consideration to be transferred between the Seller and the Purchaser in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. Any indemnification obligation under this Agreement shall be net of (i) any cash tax benefit actually realized by the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates in the same year that the indemnification obligation is satisfied, and (ii) any insurance proceeds or any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment received by the indemnified party or its Affiliates from any third party with respect thereto, net of any expenses related to the recovery of such proceeds and the cost of any insurance premiums. The Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain full recovery under all insurance policies covering any indemnification obligation to the same extent as they would if such indemnification obligation were not subject to indemnification under this Agreement. In the event that an insurance or other recovery is received by any Indemnified Party with respect to any indemnification obligation for which any such Person has been indemnified under this Agreement, then a refund equal to the aggregate amount of the recovery shall be made promptly to the Indemnifying Party.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in Article IX to the contrary, any right of a party hereunder to indemnification for any “Loss” shall not include damages incurred directly or indirectly as a result of lost profits or any damages that are special, consequential or punitive in nature, regardless of whether such damages are permissible by applicable Law.

ARTICLE X

TERMINATION, AMENDMENT AND WAIVER

SECTION 10.01 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing:

(a) by written notice:

(i) (A) from the Seller if the Closing shall not have occurred by January 1, 2010 (the “Outside Date”); provided, however, that the Seller may elect to extend the Outside Date until a date not later than January 31, 2010 in the event that both (x) on January 1, 2010 the only condition to Closing set forth in Article VIII of this Agreement (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing) that has not been satisfied or waived is the receipt of any PEO Approvals set forth in Section 8.02(c) of the Disclosure Letter and (y) the Seller agrees to pay any additional FICA, FUTA and SUTA taxes payable by the Purchaser, any SHRS Client or any SHRS ASO Client solely by reason of such extension resulting in an employee having two employers during calendar year 2010 (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not any additional costs associated with the Purchaser having to prepare additional W-2s for any SHRS WSEE or ASO Client Employee); or (B) from the Seller or the Purchaser if the Closing has not occurred by January 31, 2010; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 10.01(a)(i) shall not be available to any party whose failure to comply with any provision of this Agreement has been the principal cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur on or before such Outside Date; or

(ii) of the Seller or the Purchaser, if any Governmental Authority shall have issued an order, decree or ruling or taken any other action restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and such order, decree, ruling or other action shall have become final and nonappealable; or

(b) by the Purchaser upon a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of the Seller set forth in this Agreement such that the conditions set forth in Section 8.02 would not be satisfied as of the time of such breach, if such breach shall be incapable of being cured or shall not have been cured to such extent as is necessary to permit such conditions to be satisfied prior to the Outside Date; provided that the Purchaser shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.01(b) if the Purchaser is then in breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements such that the conditions in Section 8.01 are incapable of being satisfied;

(c) by the Seller upon a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of the Purchaser set forth in this Agreement such that the conditions set forth in Section 8.01 would not be satisfied as of the time of such breach, if such breach shall be incapable of being cured or shall not have been cured to such extent as is necessary to permit such conditions to be satisfied prior to the Outside Date; provided that the Seller shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.01(c) if the Seller is then in breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements such that the conditions in Section 8.02 are incapable of being satisfied; or

(d) by the mutual written consent of the Seller and the Purchaser.

SECTION 10.02 Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 10.01, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and there shall be no liability on the part of either party hereto except (a) as set forth in Section 5.03 and Section 11.01 and (b) that nothing herein shall relieve either party from liability for any breach of this Agreement.

ARTICLE XI

GENERAL PROVISIONS

SECTION 11.03 Public Announcements. Neither party hereto shall make, or cause to be made, any press release or public announcement in respect of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or otherwise communicate with any news media without prior notification to the other party unless otherwise required by Law or applicable stock exchange regulation, and the parties hereto shall cooperate as to the timing and contents of any such press release, public announcement or communication.

SECTION 11.04 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any Law or public policy, all other terms and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect for so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to either party hereto. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

SECTION 11.05 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements constitute the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, between the Seller and the Purchaser with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

SECTION 11.06 Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned by operation of law or otherwise without the express written consent of the Seller and the Purchaser (which consent may be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of the Seller or the Purchaser); provided, however, that the Purchaser may assign this Agreement or any of its rights and obligations hereunder to one or more Affiliates of the Purchaser without the consent of the Seller.

SECTION 11.07 Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended or modified except (a) by an instrument in writing signed by, or on behalf of, the Seller and the Purchaser or (b) by a waiver in accordance with Section 11.08.

SECTION 11.08 Waiver. Either party to this Agreement may (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other party, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other party contained herein or in any document delivered by the other party pursuant hereto or (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements of the other party or conditions to such party’s obligations contained herein. Any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the party to be bound thereby. Any waiver of any term or condition shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or a subsequent waiver of the same term or condition, or a waiver of any other term or condition of this Agreement. The failure of either party hereto to assert any of its rights hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of any of such rights. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available.

SECTION 11.09 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except for the provisions of Article IX relating to indemnified parties, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person, including any union or any employee or former employee of the Seller, any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever, including any rights of employment for any specified period, under or by reason of this Agreement.

SECTION 11.10 Specific Performance. The Seller acknowledges and agrees that the Purchaser would be irreparably damaged if any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms and that any breach of this Agreement by the Purchaser could not be adequately compensated in all cases by monetary damages alone. Accordingly, except as otherwise provided in Section 9.07, in addition to any other right or remedy to which the Purchaser may be entitled, at law or in equity, it shall be entitled to enforce any provision of this Agreement by a decree of specific performance and to temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of any of the provisions of this Agreement, without posting any bond or other undertaking.

SECTION 11.11 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Florida applicable to contracts executed in and to be performed in that State. All Actions arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be heard and determined exclusively in any Florida federal court sitting in Miami-Dade County, Florida, provided, however, that if such federal court does not have jurisdiction over such Action, such Action shall be heard and determined exclusively in any Florida state court sitting in Miami-Dade County, Florida. Consistent with the preceding sentence, the parties hereto hereby (a) submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or state court sitting in Miami-Dade County, Florida for the purpose of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any party hereto and (b) irrevocably waive, and agree not to assert by way of motion, defense, or otherwise, in any such Action, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the Action is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the Action is improper, or that this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may not be enforced in or by any of the above-named courts.

SECTION 11.12 Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the parties hereto hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law any right it may have to a trial by jury with respect to any litigation directly or indirectly arising out of, under or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby (a) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of the 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 has been induced to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, as applicable, by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 11.12.

SECTION 11.13 Currency. Unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, all references to currency, monetary values and dollars set forth herein shall mean United States (U.S.) dollars and all payments hereunder shall be made in United States dollars.

SECTION 11.14 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile or other electronic transmission) in one or more counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Seller and the Purchaser have caused this Agreement to be executed as of the date first written above by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized.

In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms of the Purchase Agreement and the terms of this Assumption Agreement, the terms of the Purchase Agreement shall govern.

3. Assignment This Agreement may not be assigned by operation of law or otherwise without the express written consent of each of the Parties; provided, however, that Alpha may assign this Agreement or any of its rights and obligations hereunder to one or more Affiliates of Alpha without the consent of the Company Subsidiaries.

4. Further Actions.

October ___, 2009

Dear Valued SHRS Client:

Selective HR Solutions, Inc. (“SHRS”) is very excited to inform you that an agreement has been reached with AlphaStaff, Inc. (“AlphaStaff”), one of the country’s most successful PEOs, for the sale of SHRS to AlphaStaff. The closing is subject customary closing conditions, including Florida regulatory approval, and is expected to be effective January 1, 2010.

AlphaStaff (▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇) is the fifth largest PEO in the country. With more than 50,000 work site employees in 48 states, we think AlphaStaff is the perfect choice to assume the SHRS operations and to be a partner with Selective’s agent network. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, AlphaStaff will be the only PEO partnering with the insurance subsidiaries of Selective Insurance Group, Inc. for workers compensation insurance.

You are the center of the transition structured with AlphaStaff. Most notably, all of your workers’ compensation and administrative fee pricing will be unchanged for all of 2010. Further, your current SUTA rates will not change in 2010 unless you have locations in states requiring client reporting. We think that this is remarkable given that the recession and the crisis in the financial markets have spiked unemployment claims and significantly increased state unemployment taxes.

Upon closing of the transaction, you will have all your current products and services at the same price with the benefits of AlphaStaff’s service improvements in some areas. We are planning the changeover and expect that it will be done without any service interruptions in payroll administration or benefits. Like SHRS, AlphaStaff employs a high-touch, field-based HR model. In most cases, your current primary SHRS contact and other service providers will continue to serve your needs after January 1st – further reducing any impact to you.

You will still enjoy the ease of working with a single source provider of all your product and service needs. As an added benefit of partnering with AlphaStaff, you will have access to more sophisticated HR technology that provides greater reporting capabilities and increased employer and employee self-service. AlphaStaff also has two complete operational centers, one in Atlanta and the other in Fort Lauderdale, so you have confidence of service stability during any natural disaster.

Like SHRS, AlphaStaff is committed to your independent agent andhas worked exclusively through the agency channel since its founding in 1997. Also like SHRS, AlphaStaff is one of the few PEOs with the surety bond protection of Employer Services Accreditation Corporation.

SHRS will continue to operate as it has until the transaction closes in January 2010. Between now and the closing, we will be available to answer your questions as they arise, but the following are some key points:

Your pricing, benefit and other insurance programs will NOT change through the term of your policy.

Most of the same dedicated SHRS professionals who have served you so well for many years will continue to provide services through AlphaStaff.

Any migration to improved systems will be done slowly and with no negative impact upon your operations or your employees.

INITIAL PAYMENT

I. Initial Payment.

(A) “Initial Payment” means an amount equal to the sum of (a) (i) the aggregate number of Transferred WSEEs, multiplied by (ii) $50.00, plus (b) (i) the aggregate number of Transferred ASO Closing Employees, multiplied by (ii) $25.00.

(B) “Estimated Initial Payment” means an amount equal to (a) the sum of (i) the aggregate number of SHRS WSEEs as of November 30, 2009, multiplied by $50.00, plus (ii) the aggregate number of SHRS ASO Employees as of November 30, 2009, multiplied by $25.00; multiplied by (b) 85%.

II. Initial Payment Statement. As promptly as practicable, but in any event by no later than February 2, 2010 or, if the Closing Date occurs after January 1, 2010, as soon as practicable thereafter, the Purchaser shall deliver to the Seller the Initial Payment Statement; provided that the information required for such Initial Payment Statement is available from the Company’s information technology systems in such time frame. The Seller shall have 15 calendar days from its delivery to review the Initial Payment Statement and either accept or dispute the Initial Payment Statement. The Seller may accept the Initial Payment Statement by providing the Purchaser with written notification thereof. The Seller may dispute any item of the Initial Payment Statement by providing the Purchaser with written notification of each disputed item, setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis for such dispute. If the Seller neither accepts nor disputes the Initial Payment Statement in writing within 15 calendar days following delivery by the Purchaser of the Initial Payment Statement, then the Initial Payment Statement prepared by the Purchaser shall be deemed to be final and binding. If, however, the Seller disputes the Initial Payment Statement within such 15 calendar day period, the Purchaser and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any differences within 15 calendar days following delivery of such notification of dispute, and any resolution by them as to any disputed items shall be final, binding and conclusive on the parties hereto. If the Seller and the Purchaser are unable to reach a resolution within such 15 calendar day period, then all remaining disputed items shall be submitted for resolution to Ernst & Young LLP (or, if such firm shall decline or is unable to act or is not, at the time of such submission, independent of the Seller and the Purchaser, to another independent accounting firm of international reputation mutually acceptable to the Seller and the Purchaser) (either Ernst & Young LLP or such other accounting firm being referred to herein as the “Determining Accounting Firm”), which shall, within 30 Business Days after such submission, determine and report to the Seller and the Purchaser upon such remaining disputed items, and such report shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Seller and the Purchaser. The Determining Accounting Firm shall be instructed to review this Agreement and the disputed items or amounts for the purpose of making its report (it being understood that in making such report, the Determining Accounting Firm shall be functioning as an expert and not as an arbitrator). In making such report, the Determining Accounting Firm shall consider only those items or amounts as to which the Seller and the Purchaser have disagreed. The Determining Accounting Firm’s determination of any disputed items or amounts shall be within the range of the amounts proposed by the Seller and by the Purchaser, respectively. The fees and disbursements of the Determining Accounting Firm shall be allocated between the Seller and the Purchaser in the same proportion that the aggregate amount of such remaining disputed items so submitted to the Determining Accounting Firm that is unsuccessfully disputed by each such party (as finally determined by the Determining Accounting Firm) bears to the total amount of such remaining disputed items so submitted.

The Initial Payment Statement shall be deemed final and binding upon the earliest of (x) the acceptance of the Initial Payment Statement by the Seller pursuant to a written notice to the Purchaser, (y) the failure of the Seller to notify the Purchaser of a dispute within 15 calendar days of the Purchaser’s delivery of the Initial Payment Statement to the Seller, or (z) the resolution of all disputes regarding the Initial Payment Statement, pursuant to this Exhibit 2.03(a)(i) (the date on which the earliest of (x), (y) or (z) occurs, the “Initial Payment Settlement Date”).

I. “Annual Acceleration Payment” means the net present value, as of the Annual Acceleration Statement Date, of the remaining Annual Payments to be paid by the Purchaser to the Seller as of such date, calculated using the Acceleration Rate as the discount rate.

II. Annual Acceleration Statement. In the event that the Purchaser shall decide to pay in full the remaining Annual Payments to be paid to the Seller pursuant to Section 2.03(a)(iii) the Purchaser shall deliver to the Seller the Annual Acceleration Statement. The Seller shall have 15 calendar days from its delivery to review the Annual Acceleration Statement and either accept or dispute the Annual Acceleration Statement. The Seller may accept the Annual Acceleration Statement by providing the Purchaser with written notification thereof. The Seller may dispute any item of the Annual Acceleration Statement by providing the Purchaser with written notification of each disputed item, setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis for such dispute. If the Seller neither accepts nor disputes the Annual Acceleration Statement in writing within 15 calendar days following delivery by the Purchaser of the Annual Acceleration Statement, then the Annual Acceleration Statement prepared by the Purchaser shall be deemed to be final and binding. If, however, the Seller disputes the Annual Acceleration Statement within such 15 calendar day period, the Purchaser and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any differences within 15 calendar days following delivery of such notification of dispute, and any resolution by them as to any disputed items shall be final, binding and conclusive on the parties hereto.

The Determining Accounting Firm shall be instructed to review this Agreement and the disputed items or amounts for the purpose of making its report (it being understood that in making such report, the Determining Accounting Firm shall be functioning as an expert and not as an arbitrator). In making such report, the Determining Accounting Firm shall consider only those items or amounts as to which the Seller and the Purchaser have disagreed. The Determining Accounting Firm’s determination of any disputed items or amounts shall be within the range of the amounts proposed by the Seller and by the Purchaser, respectively.

The Annual Acceleration Statement shall be deemed final and binding upon the earliest of (x) the acceptance of the Annual Acceleration Statement by the Seller pursuant to a written notice to the Purchaser, (y) the failure of the Seller to notify the Purchaser of a dispute within 15 calendar days of the Purchaser’s delivery of the Annual Acceleration Statement to the Seller, or (z) the resolution of all disputes regarding the Annual Acceleration Statement, pursuant to this Exhibit 2.08(a) (the date on which the earliest of (x), (y) or (z) occurs, the “Annual Acceleration Settlement Date”).

QUARTERLY ACCELERATION PAYMENT

I. “Quarterly Acceleration Payment” means, as of the Quarterly Acceleration Statement Date, the sum of the Existing Client Acceleration and the Transferred ASO Acceleration. For purposes of calculating the Quarterly Acceleration Payment and this Agreement:

(A) “Existing Client Acceleration” means the sum of the net present value of that portion of each Quarterly Earn-Out Payment for a Subsequent Quarterly Period that relates to Existing Client WSEEs, where the portion of each Quarterly Earn-Out Payment for a Subsequent Quarterly Period that relates to Existing Client WSEEs shall be calculated by multiplying the Existing Client Acceleration WSEEs for such Subsequent Quarterly Period by the Existing Client Acceleration Payment. The “Existing Client Acceleration WSEEs” for a given Subsequent Quarterly Period shall be calculated by reducing the Quarterly Acceleration Transferred WSEEs at an attrition rate of 3.125% per Subsequent Quarterly Period between the Quarterly Acceleration Statement Date and the given Subsequent Quarterly Period.

(B) “Existing Client Acceleration Payment” means (a) for each of the Quarterly Earn-Out Periods beginning with the Quarterly Earn-Out Period ending June 30, 2010 and ending with the Quarterly Earn-Out Period ending March 31, 2015, $22.50, and (b) for each of the Quarterly Earn-Out Periods beginning with the Quarterly Earn-Out Period ending June 30, 2015 and ending with the Quarterly Earn-Out Period ending March 31, 2020, $15.00.

(C) “Quarterly Acceleration Statement” means a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.08(b)-A hereto stating the Purchaser’s computation of the Quarterly Acceleration Payment.

(D) “Quarterly Acceleration Statement Date” means the date on which the Purchaser delivers the Quarterly Acceleration Statement to the Seller.

(E) “Quarterly Acceleration Transferred WSEEs” means the aggregate number of Transferred WSEEs who remain Purchaser WSEEs as of the Initial Earn-Out Reference Date (as set forth on the Initial Earn-Out Statement), reduced at an attrition rate of 3.125% per Quarterly Earn-Out Period ended prior to the Quarterly Acceleration Statement Date.

(F) “Quarterly Acceleration Transferred ASO Closing Employees” means the aggregate number of Transferred ASO Closing Employees who remain Transferred ASO Employees as of the Initial Earn-Out Reference Date (as set forth on the Initial Earn-Out Statement), reduced at an attrition rate of 3.125% per Quarterly Earn-Out Period ended prior to the Quarterly Acceleration Statement Date.

(G) “Transferred ASO Acceleration” means the sum of the net present value of that portion of each Quarterly Earn-Out Payment for a Subsequent Quarterly Period that relates to Transferred ASO Employees, where the portion of each Quarterly Earn-Out Payment for a Subsequent Quarterly Period that relates to Transferred ASO Employees shall be calculated by multiplying the Transferred ASO Acceleration Employees for such Subsequent Quarterly Period by the Transferred ASO Acceleration Payment. The “Transferred ASO Acceleration Employees” for a given Subsequent Quarterly Period shall be calculated by reducing the Quarterly Acceleration Transferred ASO Closing Employees at an attrition rate of 3.125% per Subsequent Quarterly Period between the Quarterly Acceleration Statement Date and the given Subsequent Quarterly Period.

(H) “Transferred ASO Acceleration Payment” means (a) for each of the Quarterly Earn-Out Periods beginning with the Quarterly Earn-Out Period ending June 30, 2010 and ending with the Quarterly Earn-Out Period ending March 31, 2015, $11.25, and (b) for each of the Quarterly Earn-Out Periods beginning with the Quarterly Earn-Out Period ending June 30, 2015 and ending with the Quarterly Earn-Out Period ending March 31, 2020, $7.50.

II. Net Present Value. The net present value of each of the Existing Client Acceleration, the Transferred ASO Acceleration and the components thereof shall be calculated using the Acceleration Rate as the discount rate.

III. Calculation of Quarterly Acceleration Statement. For the avoidance of doubt, Exhibit 2.08(b)-B sets forth a calculation of the Quarterly Acceleration Payment at varying dates where the aggregate number of Transferred WSEEs who remain Purchaser WSEEs as of the Initial Earn-Out Reference Date is equal to 18,000. In the event that the Quarterly Acceleration Payment calculated using the methodology set forth on Exhibit 2.08(b)-B shall differ with the Quarterly Acceleration Payment calculated using the methodology set forth on this Exhibit 2.08(b), the Quarterly Acceleration Payment calculated using the methodology set forth on Exhibit 2.08(b)-B shall be the Quarterly Acceleration Payment.

IV. Quarterly Acceleration Statement. In the event that the Purchaser shall decide to pay in full that portion of the remaining Quarterly Earn-Out Payments to be paid pursuant to Section 2.03(a)(iv) relating to Existing Client WSEEs and Transferred ASO Employees, the Purchaser shall deliver to the Seller the Quarterly Acceleration Statement. The Seller shall have 15 calendar days from its delivery to review the Quarterly Acceleration Statement and either accept or dispute the Quarterly Acceleration Statement. The Seller may accept the Quarterly Acceleration Statement by providing the Purchaser with written notification thereof. The Seller may dispute any item of the Quarterly Acceleration Statement by providing the Purchaser with written notification of each disputed item, setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis for such dispute. If the Seller neither accepts nor disputes the Quarterly Acceleration Statement in writing within 15 calendar days following delivery by the Purchaser of the Quarterly Acceleration Statement, then the Quarterly Acceleration Statement prepared by the Purchaser shall be deemed to be final and binding. If, however, the Seller disputes the Quarterly Acceleration Statement within such 15 calendar day period, the Purchaser and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any differences within 15 calendar days following delivery of such notification of dispute, and any resolution by them as to any disputed items shall be final, binding and conclusive on the parties hereto. If the Seller and the Purchaser are unable to reach a resolution within such 15 calendar day period, then all remaining disputed items shall be submitted for resolution to the Determining Accounting Firm which shall, within 30 Business Days after such submission, determine and report to the Seller and the Purchaser upon such remaining disputed items, and such report shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Seller and the Purchaser. The Determining Accounting Firm shall be instructed to review this Agreement and the disputed items or amounts for the purpose of making its report (it being understood that in making such report, the Determining Accounting Firm shall be functioning as an expert and not as an arbitrator). In making such report, the Determining Accounting Firm shall consider only those items or amounts as to which the Seller and the Purchaser have disagreed. The Determining Accounting Firm’s determination of any disputed items or amounts shall be within the range of the amounts proposed by the Seller and by the Purchaser, respectively. The fees and disbursements of the Determining Accounting Firm shall be allocated between the Seller and the Purchaser in the same proportion that the aggregate amount of such remaining disputed items so submitted to the Determining Accounting Firm that is unsuccessfully disputed by each such party (as finally determined by the Determining Accounting Firm) bears to the total amount of such remaining disputed items so submitted.

The Quarterly Acceleration Statement shall be deemed final and binding upon the earliest of (x) the acceptance of the Quarterly Acceleration Statement by the Seller pursuant to a written notice to the Purchaser, (y) the failure of the Seller to notify the Purchaser of a dispute within 15 calendar days of the Purchaser’s delivery of the Quarterly Acceleration Statement to the Seller, or (z) the resolution of all disputes regarding the Quarterly Acceleration Statement, pursuant to this Exhibit 2.08(b) (the date on which the earliest of (x), (y) or (z) occurs, the “Quarterly Acceleration Settlement Date”).

AGREEMENT

In order to induce the Company and the Company Subsidiaries to consummate the Contemplated Transactions, and for other valuable consideration (the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by the Releasor), the Releasor hereby covenants and agrees as follows:

1. Release. The Releasor, for himself and for each of the Releasor’s Associated Parties (as defined in Section 2), hereby generally, irrevocably, unconditionally and completely releases and forever discharges each of the Releasees from, and hereby irrevocably, unconditionally and completely waives and relinquishes, each of the Released Claims (as defined in Section 2).

3. Statutory and Common Law Principles. The Releasor (a) represents, warrants and acknowledges that the Releasor has been fully advised by its attorney that, under certain statutory or common law principles applied in certain states, a general release does not extend to claims which a creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by it must have materially affected its settlement with the debtor, and (b) hereby expressly waives the benefits thereof and any rights the Releasor may have under, any statute or common law principle of similar effect in any jurisdiction.

4. Representations and Warranties. The Releasor represents and warrants that:

(a) the Releasor has not assigned, transferred, conveyed or otherwise disposed of any Claim against any of the Releasees, or any direct or indirect interest in any such Claim, in whole or in part;

(b) to the Releasor’s knowledge, no other person or entity has any interest in any of the Released Claims;

(e) this General Release has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Releasor;

(f) this General Release is a valid and binding obligation of the Releasor and, to the Releasor’s knowledge, the Releasor’s Associated Parties, and is enforceable against the Releasor and, to the Releasor’s knowledge, each of the Releasor’s Associated Parties in accordance with its terms, except that (i) such enforcement may be subject to any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer or other Laws, now or hereafter in effect, relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally and (ii) the remedy of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of equitable relief may be subject to equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought;

(h) neither the execution and delivery of this General Release nor the performance hereof will (i) result in any violation or breach of any agreement or other instrument to which the Releasor or, to the knowledge of such Releasor, any of the Releasor’s Associated Parties is a party or by which such Releasor or any of such Releasor’s Associated Parties is bound, or (ii) result in a violation or any law, rule, regulation, treaty, ruling, directive, order, arbitration award, judgment or decree to which such Releasor or, to the knowledge of such Releasor, any of the Releasor’s Associated Parties is subject; and

5. Indemnification. Without in any way limiting any of the rights or remedies otherwise available to any Releasee, the Releasor shall indemnify and hold harmless each Releasee against and from any loss, damage, injury, harm, detriment, lost opportunity, liability, exposure, claim, demand, settlement, judgment, award, fine, penalty, tax, fee, charge or expense (including attorneys’ fees) that is directly or indirectly suffered or incurred at any time by such Releasee, or to which such Releasee otherwise becomes subject at any time, and that arises directly or indirectly out of or by virtue of, or relates directly or indirectly to, (a) any failure on the part of the Releasor to observe, perform or abide by, or any other breach of, any restriction, covenant, obligation, representation, warranty or other provision contained herein, or (b) the assertion or purported assertion of any of the Released Claims by the Releasor or any of the Releasor’s Associated Parties.

6. Miscellaneous.

(a) This General Release sets forth the entire understanding of the Releasor and the Releasees relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings among or between any of the Releasor and Releasees relating to the subject matter hereof.

(b) Any term or provision of this General Release that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction.

In the event such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the parties hereto agree to replace such invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and enforceable term or provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term.

(c) This General Release shall be construed in accordance with, and governed in all respects by, the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to the rules of conflict of laws of such state that would cause the laws of another jurisdiction to apply.

(d) Any legal action or other legal proceeding relating to this General Release or the enforcement of any provision of this General Release may be brought or otherwise commenced by any Releasee in any state or federal court located in Miami-Dade County, Florida. Each Releasor:

(i) expressly and irrevocably consents and submits to the jurisdiction of each state and federal court located in Miami-Dade County, Florida in connection with any such legal proceeding;

(ii) agrees that each state and federal court located in Miami-Dade County, Florida shall be deemed to be a convenient forum; and

(iii) agrees not to assert (by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise), in any such legal proceeding commenced in any state or federal court located in Miami-Dade County, Florida, any claim that the Releasor is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of such court, that such legal proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of such proceeding is improper or that this General Release or the subject matter of this General Release may not be enforced in or by such court.

Nothing contained in this General Release shall be deemed to limit or otherwise affect the right of any Releasee (1) to commence any legal proceeding or to otherwise proceed against any of the Releasor or any other person or entity in any other forum or jurisdiction, or (2) to raise this Release as a defense in any legal proceeding in any other forum or jurisdiction.

(e) THE RELEASOR HEREBY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR CONNECTED WITH THIS GENERAL RELEASE.

(f) This General Release may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute one agreement. Facsimile or other electronically scanned and transmitted signatures shall be deemed originals for all purposes of this General Release.

(g) The Releasor shall execute and/or cause to be delivered to each Releasee such instruments and other documents, and shall take such other actions, as the Releasee may reasonably request for the purpose of carrying out or evidencing any of the actions contemplated by this General Release.

(h) If any legal action or other legal proceeding relating to this General Release or the enforcement of any provision hereof is brought by the Releasor or any Releasee, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and disbursements to the extent actually incurred (in addition to any other relief to which the prevailing party may be entitled).

(i) Whenever required by the context, the singular number shall include the plural, and vice versa; the masculine gender shall include the feminine and neuter genders; and the neuter gender shall include the masculine and feminine genders.

(j) Any rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be applied in the construction or interpretation of this General Release.

(k) As used in this General Release, the words “include” and “including,” and variations thereof, shall not be deemed to be terms of limitation, and shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.”

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Releasor has caused this General Release to be executed as of the date first above written.
