(d)

Resolution of Protest.

The Accountants shall act as an arbitrator to determine, based solely on presentations by the Buyer and the Sellers, and not by independent review, only those amounts still in dispute. The Buyer and the Sellers agree to execute, if requested by the Accountants, a reasonable engagement letter. The fees and expenses of the Accountants shall be allocated between the Buyer and the Sellers so that the Sellers’ share of such fees and expenses shall be equal to the product of (x) the aggregate amount of such fees and expenses, and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount in dispute that is ultimately unsuccessfully disputed by the Sellers (as determined by the Accountant) and the denominator of which is the total amount in dispute submitted to arbitration. The balance of such fees and expenses shall be paid by the Buyer. The term “Final Net Working Capital Statement,” as used in this Agreement, shall mean the definitive Net Working Capital Statement accepted by the Sellers, agreed to by the Sellers and the Buyer in accordance with Section 2.5(c) or resulting from the determinations made by the Accountants in accordance with this Section 2.5(d).

(e)

Calculation of Final Working Capital Adjustment. The “Final Working Capital Adjustment” shall be determined as follows:

(i)

if the Net Working Capital set forth on the Final Net Working Capital Statement (the “Final Net Working Capital”) is greater than the Upper Target,

then the Final Working Capital Adjustment shall be equal to the Final Net Working Capital minus the Upper Target and either (A) minus the Positive Closing Adjustment if the Cash Purchase Price was increased pursuant to Section 2.5(a) or (B) plus the absolute value of the Negative Closing Adjustment if the Cash Purchase Price was decreased pursuant to Section 2.5(a); or

(ii)

if the Final Net Working Capital is less than the Lower Target, then the Final Working Capital Adjustment shall be equal to the Final Net Working Capital minus the Lower Target and either (A) minus the Positive Closing Adjustment if the Cash Purchase Price was increased pursuant to Section 2.5(a) or (B) plus the absolute value of the Negative Closing Adjustment if the Cash Purchase Price was decreased pursuant to Section 2.5(a); or

(iii)

if the Final Net Working Capital is neither greater than the Upper Target nor less than the Lower Target, then the Final Working Capital Adjustment shall be equal to either (A) the absolute value of any Negative Closing Adjustment if the Cash Purchase Price was decreased pursuant to Section 2.5(a) or (B) negative 1 (-1) times any Positive Closing Adjustment if the Cash Purchase Price was increased pursuant to Section 2.5(a).

(f)

Payment of Final Net Working Capital Adjustment. If the Final Working Capital Adjustment is negative, then the Sellers shall pay the absolute value of such amount to the Buyer and if the Final Working Capital Adjustment is positive, then the Buyer will pay such amount to the Sellers. All amounts required to be paid pursuant to this Section 2.5(f) will be paid within five (5) days of the determination of the Final Working Capital Adjustment by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) designated by the recipient(s), and thereafter shall accrue interest payable to the recipient(s) at a rate per annum equal to 10%.

(g)

Payment of any Change in Indebtedness. In the event the aggregate Indebtedness of the Company set forth on the Final Net Working Capital Statement is greater than the Balance Sheet Closing Date Indebtedness, then the Sellers shall pay to the Buyer such difference. All amounts required to be paid pursuant to this Section 2.5(g) will be paid within five (5) days of the determination of the Final Working Capital Adjustment by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) designated by the Buyer, and thereafter shall accrue interest payable to the Buyer at a rate per annum equal to 10%. Prior to making any payments pursuant to this Section 2.5(g), the Sellers may, upon the Sellers’ prior notification to the Buyer and receipt of a written acknowledgment by the Buyer of receipt of such notice, offset any amounts owed to the Sellers by the Buyer pursuant to Section 2.5(f), in which case the amount that was owed by the Buyer to the Sellers pursuant to Section 2.5(f) and was offset shall be deemed to be timely paid in full.

2.6

The Holdback. The Holdback Amount shall be withheld by the Buyer until the second anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Release Date”) for purposes of securing and paying (if necessary) the indemnification obligations of the Sellers pursuant to Section 9.2 and Section 9.3(e). Within thirty (30) days following the Release Date, the Buyer shall pay the Sellers the remaining Holdback Amount, if any, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) designated by the Sellers; provided, that if any Claim Notices have been sent by

the Buyer to the Sellers pursuant to Section 9.4 prior to the Release Date, a portion of the remaining Holdback Amount equal to the Losses claimed in such Claim Notices shall be retained by the Buyer until such Claim Notices are finally adjudicated in the favor of the Sellers or the Buyer agrees to release such portion of the Holdback Amount.

2.7

Earnout.

(a)

Earnout Statement. During the twelve (12) month period immediately following the Closing Date (the “Earnout Term”), the Buyer will maintain a record of all of the revenue the Company (and the Buyer if the Company is liquidated or merges into the Buyer) collects from the Yamaha Corporate Account relating to the Business products and services of the type sold by the Company prior to the Closing (the “Yamaha Post-Closing Revenue”). As soon as practicable, but not later than thirty (30) days following the Earnout Term, the Buyer shall prepare and deliver to the Sellers a statement (the “Yamaha Statement”) setting forth (i) the Yamaha Post-Closing Revenue and (ii) the amount of revenue collected from the Yamaha Corporate Account in the twelve (12) month period immediately prior to the Closing (the “Yamaha Prior Year Revenue”). The Sellers shall have ten (10) days to review the Yamaha Statement provided by the Buyer. If the Sellers do not notify the Buyer of the Sellers’ objection to the Yamaha Statement within such ten (10) day period, then the Sellers shall be deemed to have irrevocably approved the Yamaha Statement for purposes of this Section 2.7. If within the ten (10) day period, the Sellers dispute the amounts for the Yamaha Post-Closing Revenue and the Yamaha Prior Year Revenue, the parties shall resolve such dispute (including the sharing of costs) in the same manner as provided in Section 2.5(d).

(b)

Calculation of the Earnout Amount and Payment. Once the Yamaha Statement is accepted by the Sellers or is determined by the Accountants in accordance with Section 2.5(d), above, the Earnout Amount shall be calculated and paid to the Sellers (in the aggregate) as follows:

(i)

if the Yamaha Post-Closing Revenue equals fifty-nine percent (59%) or less of the of the Yamaha Prior Year Revenue, the Sellers shall not be entitled to any portion of the Earnout Amount;

(ii)

if the Yamaha Post-Closing Revenue equals at least sixty percent (60%), but no more than sixty-five percent (65%), of the Yamaha Prior Year Revenue, the Buyer shall pay to the Sellers a portion of the Earnout Amount equal to One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000);

(iii)

if the Yamaha Post-Closing Revenue equals at least sixty-six percent (66%), but no more than seventy percent (70%), of the Yamaha Prior Year Revenue, the Buyer shall pay to the Sellers a portion of the Earnout Amount equal to One Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($125,000);

(iv)

if the Yamaha Post-Closing Revenue equals at least seventy-one percent (71%), but no more than seventy-five percent (75%), of the Yamaha Prior Year Revenue, the Buyer shall pay to the Sellers a portion of the Earnout Amount equal to One Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($150,000);

(v)

if the Yamaha Post-Closing Revenue equals at least seventy-six percent (76%), but no more than seventy-nine percent (79%), of the Yamaha Prior Year Revenue, the Buyer shall pay to the Sellers a portion of the Earnout Amount equal to One Hundred Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($175,000); and

(vi)

if the Yamaha Post-Closing Revenue equals at least eighty percent (80%) or more of the Yamaha Prior Year Revenue, the Buyer shall pay to the Sellers the entire Earnout Amount.

All amounts required to be paid pursuant to this Section 2.7(b) will be paid within five (5) days of the acceptance by the Sellers of the Statement or the final determination of the Yamaha Post-Closing Revenue and the Yamaha Prior Year Revenue by the Accountants in accordance with Section 2.5(d), above, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) designated by the recipient(s).

(c)

9.2

Indemnification.

(a)

Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article IX, the Sellers shall jointly and severally indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Buyer Indemnitee from and against, any and all losses, damages, Liabilities, diminution in value, suits, causes of action, judgments, awards, assessments, fines, penalties, interest, obligations for payment (including, but not limited to, payments owed to shareholders, agents or employees of an Indemnified Party in connection with their rights to indemnification from the Indemnified Party) costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements (“Losses”), incurred by such Buyer Indemnitee that arise out of or relate to:

any breach or nonperformance by any of the Sellers of any of their covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement;

(iii)

any Taxes attributable to any of the Sellers or the Company for any period or portion of any period prior to, and up through and including, the Effective Time;

(iv)

any Indebtedness of the Company outstanding as of the Closing, other than (a) Balance Sheet Closing Date Indebtedness, or (b) any Indebtedness paid by the Sellers pursuant to Section 2.5(g);

(c)

If any Losses sustained by a Buyer Indemnitee that result from Losses sustained by the Company are covered by an insurance policy or an indemnification, contribution or similar obligation of another Person (other than an Affiliate of such Buyer Indemnitee), the Buyer Indemnitee shall use reasonable efforts to collect such insurance proceeds or indemnity, contribution or similar payments. If the Buyer Indemnitee receives such insurance proceeds or indemnity, contribution or similar payments prior to being indemnified with respect to such Losses under Section 9.2, the payment under this Article IX with respect to such Losses shall be reduced by the net amount of such insurance proceeds or indemnity, contribution or similar payments to the extent related to such Losses (such net amount calculated net of any reasonable attorney’s fees and other expenses incurred in connection with such recovery).

indemnification, contribution or similar obligation (except that, if requested to do so by the Sellers, the Buyer Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with the Sellers at the Sellers’ sole expense, to collect any such insurance or indemnification, contribution or similar obligation).

(d)

Subject to Section 9.3(e), the parties agree that the Holdback Amount shall serve as the first source of funding for any payment obligations of the Sellers under Section 9.2(a), and any indemnity payment due to any Buyer Indemnitee under Section 9.2(a) shall be made first from the Holdback Amount in accordance with the terms of Section 9.4. Any indemnity payment due to any Buyer Indemnitee under Section 9.2(a) that is asserted against the Holdback Amount or is asserted after complete depletion of the Holdback Amount, shall be made by the applicable Seller(s) within ten (10) days after the final determination of the amount of the payment. Any indemnity payment due to any Seller Indemnitee under Section 9.2(b) shall be made by the Buyer by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the payee within ten (10) days after final determination of the amount of such payment. Following the depletion of the Holdback Amount, the Buyer shall proceed against the Sellers directly, subject to the limitations contained herein.

(e)

For the avoidance of doubt, neither any payment of a Net Working Capital Adjustment pursuant to Section 2.5 nor any payment pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(iv) shall be subject to or count towards the Cap.

(f)

The Sellers agree that if, following the Closing, any claim becomes due from any of the Sellers pursuant to this Article IX in respect of any Losses (a “Loss Payment”), the Sellers shall have no rights against the Company, whether by reason of contribution, indemnification, subrogation or otherwise, in respect of any such Loss Payments, and shall not be entitled to take any action against the Company with respect thereto.

(h)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that, without any limitation on the Buyer’s remedies against any Individual Seller for fraud, the Sellers bear responsibility for any breach of a representation or warranty in Article III based upon “Sellers’ Knowledge” and corresponding terms and any Loss arising from such breach (subject to the procedures set forth in this Article IX), notwithstanding the fact that any particular Individual Seller’s breach or knowledge may have given rise to such Loss.

9.4

Notice of Claims.

(a)

Any Buyer Indemnitee or Seller Indemnitee seeking indemnification hereunder (the “Indemnified Party”) shall, within the relevant limitation period provided for in Section 9.1, give to the party from whom identification is sought (the “Indemnitor”) a notice in writing (a “Claim Notice”) describing in reasonable detail any claim for indemnification

hereunder and, to the extent known to the Indemnified Party, the facts giving rise to such claim for indemnification. The Indemnified Party shall include in such Claim Notice the amount or the method of computation of the amount of such claim, and a reference to the provision(s) of this Agreement pursuant to which such claim for indemnification is made including, if applicable, the representation or warranty with respect to which such claim is being made.

(b)

The Buyer or the Sellers, as applicable, shall have thirty (30) calendar days after the receipt of any Claim Notice pursuant hereto to either (i) agree that the applicable Indemnitor has an indemnification obligation under Article IX, agree to the amount or method of determination set forth in the Claim Notice and to pay such amount to such Indemnified Party in immediately available funds or (ii) provide such Indemnified Party with notice that it disagrees with the assertion that the Indemnitor has an indemnification obligation under Article IX or the amount or method of determination set forth in the Claim Notice. If the Buyer or the Sellers, as applicable, sends such a notice, then the Indemnified Party and the Buyer or the Sellers, as applicable, shall attempt in good faith to resolve any disputed claim within thirty (30) calendar days thereafter.

(c)

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 9.4 shall not apply in the case of a Claim Notice provided in connection with a claim by a third Person made against an Indemnified Party, which claims are governed by Section 9.5.

9.5

Third Party Claims.

(a)

If a claim by a third Person is made against an Indemnified Party, and if such Indemnified Party intends to seek indemnity with respect thereto in accordance with this Article IX, such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Buyer or the Sellers, as applicable, in writing of such claim, setting forth in reasonable detail the claim, the facts giving rise to such claim and references to the provisions of this Agreement pursuant to which such claim for indemnification was made, including, if applicable, the representation or warranty with respect to which such claim is made (the “Third Party Notice”). The Buyer or the Sellers, as applicable, shall have thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of a Third Party Notice to provide written notice (the “Control Notice”) to the Indemnified Party that the Indemnitor will undertake to conduct and control, through counsel of its own choosing and at its own expense, the settlement or defense thereof. The delivery of a Control Notice shall constitute an admission by the Indemnitor of its indemnification obligation hereunder with respect to such claim, and, subject to the limitations contained herein, its undertaking to pay directly all Losses incurred in connection therewith. If a Control Notice is delivered, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnitor in connection therewith, and the Indemnified Party may participate in (but not control) such settlement or defense through counsel chosen by such Indemnified Party and paid at its own expense (which expense shall not constitute part of any Loss that is the subject of indemnity under this Article IX). So long as such Third Party Notice is delivered in a timely manner and satisfies the requirements hereof in all material respects, the litigation expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party prior to receipt of the Control Notice shall constitute part of any Loss that is the subject of indemnity under this Article IX. If the Buyer or the Sellers, as applicable, does not deliver the Control Notice within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of a Third Party Notice, or otherwise fails to defend such claim actively in good faith within a reasonable time after receipt of a Third Party Notice, but either (A) admits to the Indemnified

Party in writing its indemnification obligation hereunder with respect to such claim, and, subject to the limitations contained herein, its undertaking to pay directly all Losses incurred in connection therewith, or (B) its indemnification obligation hereunder is confirmed by a court of competent jurisdiction through the entry of a declaratory judgment or similar order, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to undertake the defense of the claim, but shall not thereby waive any right to indemnity therefor, the Indemnitor shall thereafter have no right to challenge the Indemnified Party’s defense therein, and the litigation expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in defending the claim shall constitute part of any Loss that is the subject of indemnity under this Article IX; provided, that in the event neither clause (A) nor clause (B) is satisfied, then in addition to the rights set forth, above, in this sentence, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to settle or compromise such claim or consent to the entry of judgment with respect to such claim, and the Indemnitor shall thereafter have no right to challenge the Indemnified Party’s settlement, compromise or consent to judgment therein.

(b)

If the Indemnitor decides not to undertake to conduct and control of the settlement or defense of a claim, the Indemnitor may nonetheless participate in such settlement or defense through counsel chosen by such Indemnitor and paid at its own expense.

(c)

In no event shall the Indemnified Party pay or enter into any settlement of any claim or consent to any judgment with respect to any claim to which the Indemnitor has admitted in writing its responsibility for indemnification hereunder (as set forth in Section 9.5(a)) without the prior written consent of the Indemnitor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Indemnitor may enter into a settlement or consent to any judgment without the consent of the Indemnified Party so long as a term of the settlement or judgment is that the Person or Persons asserting such claim unconditionally release all Indemnified Parties from all liability with respect to such claim; the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnitor and there is no effect on any other claim that may be made against the Indemnified Party; otherwise, the consent of the Indemnified Party shall be required in order to enter into any settlement of, or the consent to entry of a judgment with respect to, any claim, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

9.6

Indemnification Exclusive Remedy. Except for Losses arising out of or relating to fraud, indemnification pursuant to the provisions of this Article IX shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the parties relating to the matters indemnified under Section 9.2.

9.7

Characterization of Indemnity Payments. Except as otherwise required by applicable Law, any payment made pursuant to this Article IX shall be treated, for Tax purposes, as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

9.8

Offset. Any amounts owed by the Buyer to Sellers (including, but not limited to, amounts owed to Sellers pursuant to Section 2.5(f) or Section 2.7) may be offset or reduced by any amounts owed by the Sellers to any Buyer Indemnitees under this Article IX.

9.9

Right to Indemnification Not Affected by Knowledge. The right to indemnification, payment of Losses or other remedy based on the representations, warranties, covenants and obligations contained in this Agreement will not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any knowledge acquired at any time, whether before or after the

execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing Date, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of, or compliance with, any such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation. The waiver of any condition based on the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or the compliance with any covenant or obligation, will not affect the right to indemnification, payment of Losses, or other remedy based on such representations, warranties, covenants and obligations.

No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

10.3

Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each party shall bear its own costs and expenses in connection with this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including all legal, accounting, financial advisory, consulting and all other fees and expenses of third parties.

Successors and Assigns.

Subject to the foregoing, all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

10.5

Governing Law. This Agreement and the exhibits and schedules hereto shall be governed by and interpreted and enforced in accordance with the Laws of the State of Wisconsin, without giving effect to any choice of Law or conflict of Laws rules or provisions (whether of the State of Wisconsin or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Wisconsin.

10.6

Consent to Jurisdiction. Each party hereto irrevocably submits to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any federal court located within Milwaukee County in the State of Wisconsin for the purposes of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of this Agreement. Each party further agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to such party’s respective address set forth herein shall be effective service of process for any such action, suit or proceeding. Each party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement in such courts, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ACTIONS OF SUCH PARTY IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT HEREOF.

10.7

Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, and any party hereto may execute any such counterpart, each of which when executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original and all of which counterparts taken together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when each party hereto shall have received a counterpart hereof signed by the other party hereto. The parties agree that the delivery of this Agreement, and the delivery of the Ancillary Agreements and any other agreements and documents at the Closing, may be effected by means of an exchange of facsimile signatures.

10.8

No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except for Article IX, no provision of this Agreement is intended to confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder. The Buyer Indemnitees and Seller Indemnitees are third party beneficiaries of this Agreement in accordance with its terms.

10.9

Entire Agreement.

This Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements, the Seller Disclosure Schedules, the other Schedules and the other documents, instruments and agreements specifically referred to herein or therein or delivered pursuant hereto or thereto set forth the entire understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. All schedules, including the Seller Disclosure Schedules, referred to herein are intended to be and hereby are specifically made a part of this Agreement. Any and all previous agreements and understandings between or among the parties regarding the subject matter hereof, whether written or oral, are superseded by this Agreement.

10.10

Seller Disclosure Schedules. Except as otherwise provided in the Seller Disclosure Schedules, all capitalized terms therein shall have the meanings assigned to them in this Agreement. Any reference to a section or subsection in the Seller Disclosure Schedules refers to that section or subsection of this Agreement, unless the context requires otherwise; provided, however, a particular matter disclosed in any section or subsection of the Seller Disclosure Schedules that a reasonable buyer would infer, based on the location and express content of such disclosure, qualifies another section or subsection of this Agreement shall also be deemed to qualify such other section or subsection of this Agreement. The information set forth in the Seller Disclosure Schedules specifically refers to the section or subsection of this

Agreement to which such Seller Disclosure Schedule and information is responsive and each such Seller Disclosure Schedule and information shall be deemed to have been disclosed with respect to the applicable section or subsection of this Agreement and any other sections or subsections of this Agreement for which the same is fairly disclosed. No disclosure in the Seller Disclosure Schedules relating to any possible breach or violation of any agreement, law or regulation shall be construed as an admission or indication that any such breach or violation exists or has actually occurred. The Schedules attached hereto are incorporated herein by reference. The Schedules hereto shall not vary, change, alter or expand the scope of the literal meaning of the representations and warranties of the Sellers contained in this Agreement, other than creating exceptions that are responsive to the language of the warranties and representations contained in the Section to which each Schedule or exception specifically refers. The parties acknowledge and agree that the mere listing (or inclusion of a copy) of a document or other item shall not be adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made in this Agreement, unless the representation or warranty has to do with the existence of the document or other item itself, or if the relevance of such listing or copy to the representation or warranty is reasonably apparent.

10.11

Captions. All captions contained in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only, do not form a part of this Agreement and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

10.12

Severability. The parties intend that each representation and each warranty contained in this Agreement shall have independent significance. Accordingly, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, nothing contained in any representation or warranty, or the fact that any representation or warranty may be more specific or less specific than any other representation or warranty, shall in any way limit, restrict or otherwise affect the scope, applicability or meaning of any other representation or warranty contained in this Agreement. Any provision of this Agreement which is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without invalidating or rendering unenforceable the remaining provisions hereof, and any such invalidity or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

10.13

Interpretation. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement, and any rule of construction or interpretation otherwise requiring this Agreement to be construed or interpreted against any party by virtue of the authorship of this Agreement shall not apply to the construction and interpretation hereof.
