2.4. The Closing. The closing (the “Closing”) of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall take place at the offices of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, LLP, 1735

▇▇

▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇^▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, or at such other place as shall be mutually agreed to by the parties hereto, on the date and time (the “Closing Date”) selected by Buyer that is within fifteen (15) days after the satisfaction or waiver of all of the Closing conditions set forth in Article VI hereto; provided that if Closing does not occur on or before June 30, 2004, Buyer or Seller may terminate this Agreement upon delivery of written notice to the other party. The effective time of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to be 11:59 p.m. (EST) on the Closing Date.

2.5. Purchase Price.

(a) The consideration for the Purchased Assets (the “Purchase Price”) will be (i) $15,000,000, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.7 and (ii) the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities.

(b) At the Closing, the Purchase Price, shall be paid by Buyer to Seller as follows: a cash payment equal to the Estimated Purchase Price, less the Escrow Fund. All cash payments shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds into an account specified by Seller at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing. The allocation of the Purchase Price among the Purchased Assets shall be made pursuant to Section 5.3.

2.6. Escrow Account. At Closing, Seller, Buyer and the Escrow Agent will execute and deliver an escrow agreement, in substantially the form of Exhibit 2.6 (the “Escrow Agreement”). Upon execution of the Escrow Agreement, Buyer will issue and deliver to the Escrow Agent cash in an amount equal to $1,500,000 (the “Escrow Fund”) which will be placed in escrow and held pursuant to Article VII. By executing the Escrow Agreement, Seller shall, without any further act, be deemed to have consented to and approved the deposit of the Escrow Fund with the Escrow Agent and to all of the other terms, conditions and limitations set forth in the Escrow Agreement.

2.7. Adjustment Procedure.

(a) The Working Capital of Seller as of the date of the Balance Sheet (the “Initial Working Capital”) was Nine Hundred Eighty-Four Thousand Three Hundred Fifty-Nine dollars ($984,359).

(b) At the Closing, the Senior Controller of Seller will deliver to Buyer the estimated balance sheet of Seller as of the Closing Date (“Estimated Closing Balance Sheet”), which shall include a certificate of Seller’s Senior Controller estimating in good faith the Closing Working Capital (“Seller’s Working Capital Certificate”). In the event that the estimated Closing Working Capital as reflected on Seller’s Working Capital Certificate is: (i) more than the Initial Working Capital, then the Purchase Price shall be adjusted upward on a dollar-for-dollar basis in an amount equal to such excess; or (ii) less than the Initial Working Capital, then the Purchase Price shall be adjusted downward on a dollar for dollar basis in an amount equal to such shortfall (the Purchase Price as so adjusted, the “Estimated Purchase Price”).

(c) Within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall either accept the estimated Closing Working Capital as reflected on Seller’s Working Capital Certificate or submit to Seller a certificate of Chief Financial Officer of Buyer stating what Buyer believes is the

Closing Working Capital and setting forth the balance sheet of Seller as of Closing utilized by Buyer (“Closing Balance Sheet”) to make such calculations (“Buyer’s Working Capital Certificate”). In the event that the Closing Working Capital as reflected on Buyer’s Working Capital Certificate is: (i) more than the Initial Working Capital, then Seller shall be entitled to an upward adjustment in the Purchase Price on a dollar for dollar basis equal to the amount of such excess; or (ii) less than the Initial Working Capital, then Buyer shall be entitled to a downward adjustment in the Purchase Price on a dollar-for-dollar basis equal to the amount of such shortfall (as so adjusted, the “Final Purchase Price”).

(d) In the event that the Final Purchase Price exceeds the Estimated Purchase Price, Buyer shall pay the amount of such excess to Buyer within fifteen (15) Business Days of delivery of Buyer’s Working Capital Certificate to Seller. In the event that the Estimated Purchase Price exceeds the Final Purchase Price, Seller shall pay the amount of such excess to Seller within fifteen (15) Business Days of delivery of Buyer’s Working Capital Certificate (such amount, the “Shortfall”).

(e) Notwithstanding Subsections 2.7(a) through (d), if, after completion of the obligations set forth in Subsection 2.7(c), Seller’s Working Capital Certificate, as accepted by Buyer, or Buyer’s Working Capital Certificate, as the case may be, indicates that the Closing Working Capital is greater than $935,141 and less than $1,033,577, then neither Seller nor Buyer shall be entitled to an adjustment to the Purchase Price pursuant to Subsections 2.7(a) through (d) and any adjustment previously made shall be paid to, or refunded by Seller if applicable. In the event that Seller disputes Buyer’s Working Capital Certificate, then Seller shall deliver a written notice of dispute to Buyer setting forth in detail the nature of the dispute within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of Buyer’s Working Capital Certificate (“Ten Day Notice”). Seller and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such dispute within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Ten Day Notice. In the event that Seller fails to deliver the Ten Day Notice within the time set forth in this subsection, Buyer’s Working Capital Certificate shall be deemed final and conclusive as to the Closing Working Capital. In the event of a dispute pursuant to this Section, no payments shall be made by either party pursuant to Section 2.7(d) until final resolution of such dispute, and Seller covenants that until the resolution of such dispute, if any, it will not distribute any moneys to its stockholders, creditors or any other Person in an amount that would impair its ability to pay its Excluded Liabilities or the amount of the Shortfall.

(f) If Seller duly gives Buyer such Ten Day Notice, and if Buyer and Seller fail to resolve the issues outstanding with respect to the Buyer’s Working Capital Certificate pursuant to Section 2.7(e), Buyer and Seller shall submit the issues remaining in dispute to Ernst & Young, independent public accountants (the “Independent Accountants”) for resolution. If issues are submitted to the Independent Accountants for resolution, (i) Buyer and Seller (x) shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Independent Accountants such work papers and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues as the Independent Accountants may request and are available to that party or its agents, (y) shall be afforded the opportunity to present to the Independent Accountants any material relating to the disputed issues and to discuss the issues with the Independent Accountants, and (z) shall be afforded reasonable access to or the opportunity to make copies of any materials such party reasonably requires in connection with any dispute pursuant to Section 2.6 furnished to the Independent Accountants; (ii) the determination by the Independent Accountants, as set forth in a notice (the “Independent

Accountants Notice”) to be delivered to both Buyer and Seller within thirty (30) days of the submission to the Independent Accountants of the issues remaining in dispute, shall be final, binding and conclusive on the parties and shall be used in the calculation of the Closing Working Capital; and (iii) Seller and Buyer will each bear fifty percent (50%) of the fees and costs of the Independent Accountants for such determination. Within fifteen (15) days of receipt by Buyer and Seller of the Independent Accountant Notice, either Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, shall make any payments required pursuant to Section 2.7(d).

2.8. Consent of Third Parties; Further Assurances. From time to time following the Closing, Seller (through its officers) shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to Buyer such additional instruments of conveyance and transfer as Buyer may reasonably request or as may be otherwise reasonably necessary to more effectively convey or transfer to, and vest in, Buyer and put Buyer in possession of, any part of the Purchased Assets. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as an attempt or agreement to assign any asset, Contract, permit, license or other right which would otherwise be included in the Purchased Assets or Assumed Liabilities, as appropriate, but which is by its terms or by law nonassignable without the consent of the other party or parties thereto or any Governmental Authority unless such consent shall have been given, or as to which all the remedies for the enforcement thereof enjoyed by Seller or the Business would not, as a matter of law, pass to Buyer as an incident of the assignments provided for by this Agreement, as set forth on Schedule 2.8 (the “Non-Assignable Assets”). Seller agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to obtain any such consents promptly. At such time as any Non-Assignable Asset is properly assigned to Buyer, such Non-Assignable Asset shall become a Purchased Asset or Assumed Liability, as appropriate. Following the Closing and until such time as such Non-Assignable Assets may be properly assigned to Buyer, such Non-Assignable Assets shall be held by Seller in trust for Buyer and the covenants and obligations thereunder shall be performed by Buyer in the name of Seller, to the extent permitted by applicable law, and all benefits and obligations existing thereunder shall be for the account of Buyer. During such period, Seller shall take or cause to be taken such action in its name or otherwise as Buyer may reasonably request, at Buyer’s expense, so as to provide Buyer with the benefits of the Non-Assignable Assets and to effect collection of money or other consideration to become due and payable under the Non-Assignable Assets and Seller shall promptly pay over to Buyer all money or other consideration received by it (or its Affiliates) in respect of all Non-Assignable Assets. Following the Closing, Seller authorizes Buyer, to the extent permitted by applicable law and the terms of the Non-Assignable Assets, at Buyer’s expense, to perform all of the obligations and receive all of the benefits under the Non-Assignable Assets.

2.9. Customer Billing. In the event that Seller or any of its Affiliates receives payment after the Closing Date on invoices relating to the Purchased Assets on or after the Closing Date, such Seller will promptly notify Buyer of such receipt and will promptly remit, or will cause such Affiliate to promptly remit, such payment to Buyer.

True and correct copies of the Contracts listed on Schedule 3.11 and Schedule 2.8 have been delivered or made available to Buyer. Each of such Contracts is valid, binding and enforceable against such member of Seller Group and the other parties thereto, in accordance with its terms, and to the knowledge of each member of Seller Group is in full force and effect, subject to the application of equitable principles. Except as set forth in Schedule 3.11 or Schedule 2.8, to the knowledge of each member of Seller Group, each of the other parties thereto has performed in all material respects all obligations required to be performed by it under, and is not in default in any material respect under, any of such Contracts, and no event has occurred which, with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute such a default. Except as disclosed on Schedule 3.11 or Schedule 2.8, no member of Seller Group has received any written claim from any other party to any such Contract that any member of Seller Group has breached any obligations to be performed by it thereunder, or is otherwise in default or delinquent in performance thereunder.

safety (“Environmental Laws”) in connection with the Business, the Premises and the Purchased Assets, and all of such Governmental Permits are in full force and effect. All such Governmental Permits are listed on Schedule 3.12(a) and any that are not transferable are so designated. Each member of Seller Group has made timely application for renewals of all such Governmental Permits for which Environmental Laws require that applications must be filed on or before the Closing in order to maintain such Governmental Permits in full force and effect as of the Closing Date. No member of Seller Group has reason to believe that such renewals will not be issued in the ordinary course or will require payment of money (other than customary renewal fees in amounts not greater than $5,000 in the aggregate) or imposition of conditions not currently contained in such Governmental Permits.

Accordingly, each of Buyer and Seller agrees to cooperate in the preparation of the Asset Acquisition Statement for timely filing in each of its federal income tax Returns and any applicable non-U.S., state or local tax Return in accordance with a written statement (the “Statement of Allocation”), prepared in accordance with Schedule 5.3 (to be attached at Closing), setting forth an allocation of the Purchase Price among the Purchased Assets, and the covenants not to compete and not to solicit contained in Section 5.8 in accordance with the provisions of Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. On or before the Closing, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller a proposed Statement of Allocation. If Seller approve the Statement of Allocation, then, unless otherwise prohibited by law, all non-U.S. federal, state and local income tax Returns of Buyer and Seller shall be filed consistently with the allocations made pursuant to the Statement of Allocation. If Seller do not approve the Statement of Allocation, Buyer and Seller shall make good faith efforts to agree on the allocation of the consideration among the Purchased Assets and

covenants. If Buyer and Seller, after good faith negotiations, cannot agree on the allocation of the consideration within 120 days following the Closing Date, then no Statement of Allocation shall be prepared, and each party shall prepare and file its Returns in accordance with its own allocations. Seller and Buyer acknowledge and agree that (x) Seller will be responsible for and perform all tax withholding, payment and reporting duties with respect to any wages and other compensation paid by Seller to any Transferred Employee in connection with the operation of the Business prior to the Closing; and (y) Buyer will be responsible for and perform all tax withholding, payment and reporting duties with respect to any wages and other compensation paid by Buyer to any Business Employee in connection with the operation of the Business after the Closing. Seller and Buyer agree to follow the Standard Procedure specified in Section 4 of Rev. Proc. 96-60, 1996-2 Cum. Bull. 399, whereby, among other things, each will be responsible for the reporting duties with respect to its own wages and compensation to employees in connection with the operation of the Business.

5.4. Tax Matters.

(a) Seller will be responsible for the preparation and filing of all Returns of Seller Subsidiary that are due (giving effect to valid extensions) before or on the Closing Date for all taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date and of all other Returns of the Business that are due (giving effect to valid extensions) before, on or after the Closing Date for all taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date and any Returns of the Business for taxable periods ending after the Closing Date that Seller is legally obligated to file. Seller shall make all payments required with respect to any such Return as shown or required to be shown thereon; provided, however, Seller and Buyer will reimburse each other for all Taxes prorated in accordance with Section 5.4(c). All Returns for which Seller is responsible pursuant to this Section 5.4(a) shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice, unless otherwise prohibited by applicable law.

(b) Buyer will be responsible for the preparation and filing of all Returns of Seller Subsidiary that are due (giving effect to valid extensions) after the Closing Date for all taxable periods ending before, on or after the Closing Date, other than Returns that Seller is required to file under applicable law. Buyer will make all payments required with respect to any such Return. Seller and Buyer will reimburse each other to the extent necessary for all Taxes prorated in accordance with Section 5.4(c). All Returns for which Buyer is responsible pursuant to this Section 5.4(b) and that include a portion of a taxable period beginning before the Closing Date shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice, unless otherwise required by applicable law, and shall be subject to the review and approval of Seller, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(c) Taxes of Seller Subsidiary imposed on Buyer, Seller or Seller Subsidiary for any taxable period that begins before and ends after the Closing Date shall be allocated to and paid or caused to be paid by (i) Seller for the period up to and including the Closing Date, other than Transfer Taxes allocable to Buyer pursuant to Section 5.4(g) and any Taxes of Seller Subsidiary to the extent set forth on the Closing Balance Sheet as a current liability, and (ii) Buyer for the period beginning on the first day after the Closing Date. For purposes of this Agreement, Taxes of Seller Subsidiary and Taxes of Seller in connection with the Business for the period up to and including the Closing Date and for the period beginning on the first day after

Closing Date shall be apportioned on a per diem basis in the case of any such Taxes not measured or measurable in whole or in part with reference to net or gross income, sales or receipts, capital expenses or compensation expenses, and all other such Taxes shall be determined on the basis of an interim closing of the books of each of Seller Subsidiary, Seller and Buyer as of the end of the Closing Date.

(d) Seller and Buyer shall, with respect to any Taxes related to the Business, provide reasonable cooperation and information to each other in connection with (i) the preparation or filing of any Return, amended Return, Tax election, Tax consent or certification, or any claim for a Tax refund, (ii) any determination of liability for Taxes, and (iii) any audit, examination or other proceeding in respect of Taxes. Such cooperation shall include providing copies of all relevant Returns, together with accompanying schedules and related work papers, documents relating to determinations by any Governmental Authority and records containing the ownership and tax basis of property, which either party may possess. Seller and Buyer shall make available on a reasonable basis, employees of Seller or Buyer as the case may be, whose reasonable out-of-pocket costs, if any, such as travel and lodging, shall be reimbursed by the party to which such employees are made available. Seller and Buyer shall at their own cost and expense preserve all Returns, schedules, work papers and all material records or other documents relating thereto until the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations, including extensions thereof, provided that notice of such extension is given to the party which did not grant the extension. Seller and Buyer shall not destroy or otherwise dispose of any Returns, schedules, work papers, information, records and documents prior to the expiration of applicable statutes of limitations without first providing the other party a reasonable opportunity to review and copy the same. The party requesting such information, records and documents shall bear the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with providing the same. Any information obtained under this Section 5.4 shall be kept confidential, except as may be otherwise necessary in connection with the filing of Returns, claims for a Tax refund or in conducting any audit, examination or other proceeding in respect of Taxes.

(e) Seller shall have the right, at its own expense, to control any audit or examination by any Governmental Authority, to initiate any claim for refund, to amend any Return, or to contest, resolve and defend against any assessment, notice of deficiency, or other adjustment or proposed adjustment relating to any Taxes of Seller or Seller Subsidiary for any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date, except that Seller shall consult with Buyer and obtain Buyer’s consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) as to any of the foregoing if Buyer, Seller, Seller Subsidiary, the Purchased Assets or the Business may be adversely affected by such action. Buyer shall promptly notify Seller of the receipt of all notices, audits, examinations or other proceedings, information or document requests, requests for conferences, meetings, interviews or testimony of employees of Buyer and other correspondence in respect of Taxes related to the Business or the Purchased Assets for any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date. Seller shall have the right, at its own expense to participate in all conferences, meetings, interviews or testimony of employees of Buyer and other correspondence in respect of Taxes related to the Business or the Purchased Assets for any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date.

(f) Buyer shall have the right, at its own expense, to control any audit or examination by any Governmental Authority, to initiate any claim for refund, to amend any

Return, or to contest, resolve and defend against any assessment, notice of deficiency, or other adjustment or proposed adjustment relating to any Taxes for any taxable period ending after the Closing Date. With respect to any audit or other proceeding relating to Taxes for taxable periods that begin before and end after the Closing Date (“Straddle Period Taxes”), Seller shall, notwithstanding the rights accorded Buyer under the preceding sentence, have the right, at its own expense, to participate (i) in all conferences, meetings or proceedings with any Governmental Authority, the subject matter of which is or includes Straddle Period Taxes and (ii) in all appearances before any court, the subject matter of which is or includes Straddle Period Taxes. Buyer agrees, notwithstanding the rights accorded Buyer in the first sentence of this Section 5.4(f), not to settle or compromise any issue relating to Straddle Period Taxes without Seller’s consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) unless Buyer first waives, in writing, any rights to indemnification it may have under this Agreement relating to such Straddle Period Taxes.

(g) Taxes and Fees. Sales taxes, transfer taxes, stamp taxes, conveyance taxes, excise taxes, mortgage taxes, intangible taxes, documentary recording taxes, value added taxes, license and registration fees, and recording fees imposed by any Governmental Authority, if any, imposed upon the transfer of the Purchased Assets or the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities hereunder and the filing of any instruments (the “Transfer Taxes”) shall be paid fifty percent (50%) by Seller and fifty percent (50%) by Buyer. Seller and Buyer agree to cooperate reasonably to minimize the amount of Transfer Taxes, including making and accepting delivery of any Purchased Assets that constitute “prewritten programs” within the meaning of California Sales and Use Tax Regulation 1502(b)(9) in a form qualifying for the exemption from California sales and use tax under California Sales and Use Tax Regulation 1502(f)(1)(D).

5.5. Employees and Employee Benefits; Options.

(a) Schedule 5.5(a) contains a true and complete list showing the names, title, hire date and current annual salary rates, commissions, bonuses and incentive compensation, as applicable, total earnings for 2003 and 2004 (as of March 31, 2004), status (full or part-time, active or inactive, whether as a result of a Leave of Absence or disability, specifying long-term or short-term) of all the Business Employees. Schedule 5.5(a) also contains a true and complete list of: all employment, managerial, advisory and consulting agreements; employee confidentiality or other agreements protecting proprietary processes, formulae or information; and any employee handbook(s) of Seller or Seller Subsidiary. Seller shall provide to Buyer prior to the Closing, to the extent permitted by applicable law, such information regarding the Business Employees as is contained in Seller Group’s personnel records, including (without limitation) copies of such records as may be reasonably requested by Buyer.

(b) Buyer shall offer to hire, as of the Closing Date, subject to completion of an employment application, and any drug testing to the extent required by law, all of Seller’s current Business Employees as of the Closing Date other than the Seller Employees listed on Schedule 5.5(b). Such Business Employees that accept Buyer’s offer of employment shall be referred to as “Transferred Employees”. Seller agrees that any such Business Employees that Buyer wishes to hire that decline such offer will not be eligible for severance benefits if they are terminated by Seller.

(c) Seller shall retain responsibility for, salary, wages, commissions, bonuses, accrued vacation and related payroll taxes for all Business Employees for all periods up to and including the Closing Date. Seller shall pay the amount of salaries, wages, and benefits earned through the Closing Date by each Business Employee on the earlier of Seller’s next regularly scheduled pay date for that employee or as required by law.

(d) Seller shall cause the interest of each Business Employee under each of Seller’s Employee Benefit Plans which is an “employee pension benefit plan” as described in Section 3(2) of ERISA to be fully vested and nonforfeitable with respect to benefits accrued under such plan(s) based on service and/or compensation through the Closing Date. Buyer covenants and agrees that each Transferred Employee shall be entitled to participate in the existing employee benefit plans of Buyer provided to similarly situated employees of Buyer. For purposes of satisfying the terms and conditions of such plans, Buyer shall give full credit for eligibility and vesting purposes for each Transferred Employee’s period of service with Seller prior to the Closing Date.

(e) Buyer agrees that the employment contracts to be executed by Buyer or its affiliates and each Transferred Employee prior to the Closing shall provide for substantially the same salary, wage, and/or commission plan for each such Transferred Employee as set forth on Schedule 5.5(a). Aside from any Transferred Employee who executes an employment contract with Buyer prior to Closing, all terms of employment of each Transferred Employee shall be determined by Buyer in its sole discretion, and nothing herein shall constitute an agreement to assume or be bound by any employment agreement or employee plan, or previous or existing collective bargaining agreement between Seller and any representative of the Business Employees or a guaranty that any Business Employee to whom an offer of employment may be made shall be entitled to remain in the employment of Buyer for any specified period of time. To the contrary, employment with any Buyer will be employment at will. Buyer shall have the right to terminate the employment of any Transferred Employee at any time, for any reason, and to change the terms of such Transferred Employee’s wages, salaries, and benefits consistent with law, subject to obligations of Buyer to such Transferred Employee under any collective bargaining agreement or by a requirement of law or any regulation thereunder.

(f) Buyer will require the services of certain of Seller’s Business Employees, as set forth on Schedule 5.5(e) (the “Transition Employees”), for a transition period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on a date set forth opposite to such Transition Employee’s name (the “Transition Period”). Such Transition Employees shall execute and deliver a release of any claim to employment by Buyer prior to Closing. Seller agrees to continue to employ such Transition Employees during the Transition Period and to charge Buyer fees (the “Fees”) for their services, as set forth on Schedule 5.5(e). Buyer shall, in its sole discretion, determine the amount of services it shall require from the Transition Employees. The Transition Employees shall at all times remain Seller’s employees prior to, on and after, the Closing; however, Buyer shall have supervisory responsibility over such employees while they are providing services to Buyer during the Transition Period. Aside from the payment of the Fees to Seller, Buyer shall have no responsibility, liability or obligation for any wages, bonuses, salary, commissions, taxes or benefits with regards to the Transition Employees.

(g) Furthermore, Seller shall be responsible for and shall satisfy any notice requirements in respect of events occurring, services rendered or compensation paid on or prior to the Closing Date which are required by ERISA and the Code regarding its Plans, including notices required by Sections 204(h), 606, and 4043 of ERISA and 4980B of the Code.

(h) Seller will comply with requirements of Section 601, et seq., of ERISA and Section 4980B of the Code as they relate to the ‘qualifying event’ represented by the termination of the Business Employees’ employment with Seller that will occur in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

5.6. Notice to Buyer. Prior to the termination of the Survival Period, Seller will promptly notify Buyer in writing of any event or fact which represents a breach of any of their representations, warranties, covenants or agreements hereunder. Prior to the Closing, each member of Seller Group shall notify Buyer promptly of the occurrence of any of the following:

If any proceedings shall result in any reduction of assessment and/or tax for the tax year in which the Closing occurs, it is agreed that the amount of tax savings or refund for such tax year less the fees and disbursements in connection with such proceedings, shall be apportioned between the parties as of the date real estate taxes are apportioned under this Agreement.

5.7. Conduct of the Business. Each member of Seller Group hereby covenants to Buyer that, from the date hereof to the Closing, such member of Seller Group will conduct and use the Business, the Purchased Assets, and the Assumed Liabilities only in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practice.

ARTICLE VII

INDEMNIFICATION; ESCROW

7.1. Survival of Representations and Warranties and Covenants.

(a) All of the representations, warranties and covenants of the parties contained in this Agreement or any agreement or instrument delivered in connection with Closing, except as set forth in Section 7.1(c), shall survive the Closing and continue in full force and effect for the applicable Survival Period.

(b) Except as set forth in Section 7.1(c), each party (an “Indemnifying Person”) agrees to indemnify and hold the other party and its respective affiliates, officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents (such other party and each of the foregoing persons or entities is hereinafter referred to individually as an “Indemnified Person” and collectively as “Indemnified Persons”) harmless from any and all Damages suffered by them arising out of, related to or resulting from a breach by the Indemnifying Person of its representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Agreement, except as set forth in Section 7.1(c), after the Closing Date provided that the Indemnified Person makes a written claim in accordance with Section 7.1(g) for indemnification against the Indemnifying Person within such applicable Survival Period.

(c) Seller (an “Indemnifying Person” for purposes of this Section 7.1(c)) agrees to indemnify Buyer and its respective affiliates, officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents (each of such foregoing persons or entities being an “Indemnified Person” and collectively as “Indemnified Persons” for purposes of this Section 7.1(c)) for any and all Damages arising out of, related to or resulting from the Excluded Liabilities and Seller’s indemnification obligation shall be unlimited and shall survive for an indefinite period after the Closing Date.

(d) Damages in each case shall be net of the amount of any insurance proceeds and indemnity and contribution actually recovered by the Indemnified Person after subtracting the cost of recovery and the amount of premiums paid by the Indemnified Person and making adjustment for any premium increases.

(e) Upon the first anniversary of the Closing Date, Buyer shall authorize the release to Seller of the balance remaining in the Escrow Fund. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, in the event there is an unresolved claim made in accordance with Section 7.1(g) prior to the end of the applicable Survival Period, the Indemnified Person’s entitlement to an amount from the Escrow Fund shall continue, and Buyer shall notify Seller in writing as to the Projected Indemnity Amount as of such date. As promptly as practicable following delivery of such notice, an amount equal to (i) the amount of the Escrow Fund remaining as of such date minus (ii) an amount equal to the Projected Indemnity Amount, shall be released to Seller. Promptly after the final resolution of any such unresolved claim, Buyer will notify Seller in writing of the Projected Indemnity Amount as of such date after taking into account resolution of any such Claim. As promptly as practicable following delivery of such notice, an amount equal to the (i) the amount of the Escrow Fund remaining as of such date minus (ii) an amount equal to the Projected Indemnity Amount shall be released to the Seller. The “Projected Indemnity Amount” shall equal 1.2 times Buyer’s good faith estimate of the aggregated Damages with respect to a Claim.

(f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 7.1, an Indemnified Person shall be entitled to indemnification hereunder in the full amount of Damages with respect to the breach of a representation or warranty by the Indemnifying Person only when the aggregate of all Damages from all such breaches of representations and warranties by the Indemnifying Person exceeds $250,000 (the “Threshold Amount”). Any qualifications and exceptions relating to materiality or material adverse effect with respect to any representations or warranties shall be disregarded for the purposes of determining whether an Indemnified Person shall be entitled to indemnification with respect to such representations or warranties.

(g) Indemnification Procedures. In the event that any Indemnified Person incurs or suffers any Damages with respect to which indemnification may be sought pursuant to this Section 7.1, the Indemnified Party must assert the claim by giving to the Indemnifying Party written notice stating the nature, basis and amount, if known of the claim (“Claim Notice”). Within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Claim Notice (“Response Period”), the Indemnifying Person shall respond to the Indemnified Person in writing to accept the claim or to dispute the claim, in which event such response shall provide specific detail of any allegations in the Claim Notice that are disputed. In the event that the Indemnifying Party fails to respond within the thirty-day period or elects not to dispute the Claim Notice, then such claim shall conclusively be deemed to be an obligation of the Indemnifying Party and shall be paid in full within 30 days following the end of the Response Period.

(h) Dispute Resolution. In the event of any controversy or dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, or any breach thereof, or any Claim Notice disputed pursuant to the procedure in Section 7.1(g) which the parties are unable to resolve through negotiation, the party asserting such claim or breach shall give written notice (the “Dispute Notice”) to each other party setting forth in reasonable detail the nature of such claim or alleged breach. Such dispute if not otherwise resolved by the parties shall be settled by arbitration before a single arbitrator selected by the parties in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association. Any such arbitration shall be held in the city and county of San Francisco, California. If the parties fail to agree upon an arbitrator within 15 days after the date of the Dispute Notice, then Seller and Buyer, shall select an arbitrator within the following 10 days, the two arbitrators selected by the parties shall select a third arbitrator within 20 days, and all three arbitrators shall arbitrate the controversy or claim. The results of the arbitration shall be final binding and not subject to appeal. Each party shall pay its own costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Section 7.1(h); provided that Buyer and Seller shall each pay one half of the fees for the arbitrator.

(i) Exclusive Remedy. The parties acknowledge and agree that after the Closing Date the foregoing indemnification provisions in this Section 7.1 shall be, with the exception of an intentional breach or fraud, claims brought pursuant to Sections 5.8, 5.11, 5.14 and 7.1(c) or claims for specific performance or equitable relief, the exclusive remedy of each party with respect to the breach of the representations, warranties and covenants of the other party contained in this Agreement. With the exception of an intentional breach or fraud, claims brought pursuant to Sections 5.8, 5.11, 5.14 and 7.1(c) or claims for specific performance or

equitable relief, the maximum aggregate amount that all Indemnified Persons shall be entitled to recover from all Indemnifying Persons for breach of representations, warranties and covenants shall be the Escrow Fund.
