ARTICLE II

PURCHASE PRICE AND PAYMENT

Section 2.1 Purchase Price. At the Closing (as defined herein), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, Purchaser shall acquire all of the Assets from Seller for a purchase price of $13,000,000 (the “Base Purchase Price”), plus the Earn-Out Amount, if any (collectively, the “Purchase Price”). The amount of the Base Purchase Price shall be payable at the Closing by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Seller to Purchaser no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date. Any Earn-Out Amount shall be payable as provided in this Agreement.

Section 2.2 Allocation of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall be allocated among the Assets for all purposes (including financial reporting and tax purposes) shall be mutually agreed by the parties as soon as practical after the date hereof (“Allocation Schedule”), it being acknowledged by the parties that such allocation shall be within ten percent (10%) of the preliminary allocation set forth on Schedule 2.2. Seller and Purchaser each hereby covenants and agrees that such Person will report the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in a manner consistent with the terms of this Agreement, including the allocation set forth on the Allocation Schedule under this Section 2.2 (the “Allocation of Purchase Price”), and that it will not take a position on any income tax return, before any Governmental Authority charged with the collection of any income tax, or in any judicial proceeding that is in any way inconsistent with the Allocation of Purchase Price or the terms of this Agreement.

Section 2.3 Earn-Out. As additional consideration for the Assets, at such time and in such manner as provided in this Section 2.3, Purchaser shall pay to Seller an amount, if any (the “Earn-Out”), based on the Acquired Business Backlog (as defined below) as provided and computed in accordance with this Section 2.3.

(a) Acquired Business Backlog. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Acquired Business Backlog” shall mean and include only the amount of firm contracted sales backlog for Purchaser related to the Business arising from contracts entered into on or after the date of this Agreement (whether by Seller for the sole benefit of Purchaser or by Purchaser or of or by its Affiliates) to directly or indirectly provide materials, labor or services to any Key Customer (or any affiliate of a Key Customer), with such backlog computed in a manner consistent with the manner Purchaser computes and determines its backlog such as it used in determining its firm sales backlog as recorded in its press release issued on August 6, 2014.

(b) Computation of Earn-Out Amount. The amount of the Earn-Out, if any (the “Earn-Out Amount”), shall be determined as follows: (i) if the Acquired Business Backlog reaches an amount of at least $5,000,000, then the Earn-Out Amount shall be equal to $1,000,000; and, thereafter, (ii) if the Acquired Business Backlog reaches at least $15,000,000, then the Earn-Out Amount shall be equal to an additional $1,000,000. No Earn-Out shall be payable unless the Acquired Business Backlog is at least $5,000,000, and the maximum Earn-Out Amount in the aggregate shall be $2,000,000.

(c) Procedures Applicable to Determination of the Earn-Out Payment. The parties acknowledge that PowerSecure computes its firm sales backlog on a quarterly basis and discloses such amount in connection with its quarterly earnings releases. If PowerSecure issues a quarterly earnings release that includes a sufficient amount of Acquired Business Backlog within its standard sales backlog table to generate an Earn-Out Amount under Section 2.3(b), then PowerSecure shall provide written notice to Seller of such Acquired Business Backlog and Earn-Out Amount. Purchaser shall pay any such Earn-Out Amount to Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Seller within 30 days after issuing a quarterly earnings release with sufficient Acquired Business Backlog to generate the Earn-Out Amount.

(d) Post-Closing Operation of the Business. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, subsequent to the Closing, Purchaser shall have sole discretion with regard to all matters relating to the operation of the Business, and Purchaser shall have no obligation to operate the Business in order to achieve or maximize the Earn-Out Payment.

(e) Right of Set-off. Purchaser shall have the right to withhold and set off against any amount otherwise due to be paid pursuant to this Section 2.3 the amount of any Losses to which any Purchaser Indemnified Party may be entitled under Article VI of this Agreement.

(f) No Security. The parties hereto understand and agree that (i) the contingent rights to receive an Earn-Out Amount hereunder shall not be represented by any form of certificate or other instrument, are not transferable and do not constitute an equity or ownership interest in Purchaser or Seller, (ii) Seller shall not have any rights as a securityholder of Purchaser as with respect to the Assets or the Business as a result of Seller’s contingent right to receive any Earn-Out Amount hereunder, and (iii) no interest will accrue on, or be owed or payable with respect to, any Earn-Out Amount.

(g) Tax Purposes. Any Earn-Out Payment made under this Section 2.3 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price by the parties hereto for Tax purposes.

(h) Termination. Seller’s rights to any Earn-Out Payments under this Section 2.3 shall expire and terminate if the conditions of the Earn-Out Payment in Section 2.3(b) are not satisfied on or before the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date.

Section 2.4 Work in Progress. With respect to the Assumed Contract and the Assumed Project relating to Bright House Networks, LLC at the Closing, Seller will be entitled to the revenue earned up to the Closing Date, which will be calculated as follows. The cost incurred by Seller through the day preceding the Closing Date will be divided by the estimated total cost of the project to derive the percentage of completion. The percentage of completion will then be multiplied by the contract value to derive the revenue earned by Seller up to and including the day preceding the Closing Date. If cash received by Seller from Bright House Networks exceeds the revenue earned as so computed, then the difference shall be paid in cash to Purchaser at Closing, and if the cash received by Seller from Bright House Networks is less than the revenue earned Purchaser shall pay in cash to Seller the difference at Closing. The calculation will be based on Seller’s computations which are delivered to Purchaser at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date and updated prior to the Closing and are reasonably acceptable to Purchaser. In addition any additional cash that Seller receives from Bright House Networks after the Closing Date will be paid to Purchaser within three (3) Business Days of receipt thereof. Seller will transfer any remaining open vendor purchase orders and accounts payable for Assumed Projects to Purchaser.

(a) Notice of Claims. Whenever any party hereunder believes it has suffered or incurred or is likely to suffer or incur any Damages, or any action or proceeding is commenced or threatened or claim is made that could result in Damages, which is reasonably likely to give rise to a claim (“Claim”) for indemnification under this Agreement, the party seeking indemnification (“Indemnified Party”) shall, upon obtaining knowledge thereof, promptly notify in writing the party against whom indemnification is sought (“Indemnifying Party”) of the Claim and, when known, the facts constituting the basis for such Claim and the amount and nature of the Damages or an estimate thereof. The Indemnified Party’s failure to timely notify Indemnifying Party of any Claim or potential Claim shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability hereunder unless and only to the extent that such failure causes Indemnifying Party to lose the right to assert any substantive rights or defenses or to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced in its rights or obligations.

(b) Legal Counsel. The Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party a reasonable opportunity to participate in and to assume the defense of any such Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s own expense and with counsel of the Indemnifying Party’s own selection reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that Indemnified Party shall at all times also have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in the defense of the Claim and to employ its own counsel at its own expense subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Indemnified Party reasonably determines that: (i) legal defenses may be available to the Indemnified Party that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party, (ii) a conflict or potential conflict of interest exists between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (in which case the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such Claim on behalf of the Indemnified Party), or (iii) the Indemnifying Party has not in fact employed legal counsel to assume the defense of such Claim within a reasonable time after receiving notice of the Claim, then the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel from one separate firm selected by the Indemnified Party (and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party) shall be reimbursed by the Indemnified Party promptly as they are incurred.

(c) Settlement of Claims. No party hereto shall compromise, settle or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any Claim without the prior written consent of the other interested party or parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless such compromise, settlement or consent includes an unconditional release of all other interested parties hereto from any and all liabilities on any Claims that are the subject matter thereof.

(d) Cooperation. Each Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party shall cooperate in every reasonable way with each other and, if different, with the party assuming responsibility for the defense and disposition of any such Claim, including making available to the defending party all books, records and other material reasonably required by the defending party for its use in defending the Claim.

Section 6.5 Limitations on Liability. The indemnification obligations provided for in this Article VI shall be subject to the following limitations:

(a) Basket.

(i) No Purchaser Indemnified Party shall be entitled to be indemnified for, and Seller shall not have any liability for or be required to indemnify, defend or hold harmless any Purchaser Indemnified Party hereunder for, any Losses arising under this Article VI, unless and until the aggregate amount of all Losses Seller is liable for under this Article VIX equals or exceeds $75,000 (the “Basket Amount”), and then Seller’s obligations hereunder shall apply only to amount of the Losses exceeding the Basket Amount; provided, however, that the limitation of liability under this Section 6.5(a)(i) shall not apply to any indemnification claim arising out of any fraud on the part of Seller.

(ii) No Seller Indemnified Party shall be entitled to be indemnified for, and Purchaser shall not have any liability for or be required to indemnify, defend or hold harmless any Seller Indemnified Party hereunder for, any Losses arising under this Article VI, unless and until the aggregate amount of all Losses Purchaser is liable for under this Article VI equals or exceeds the Basket Amount, and then Purchaser’s obligations hereunder shall apply only to amount of the Losses exceeding the Basket Amount.

(b) Cap.

(i) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the amount payable by Seller under this Article VI exceed $3,000,000 plus any portion of the Earn-Out Amount actually paid; provided, however, that the foregoing limitation shall not apply with respect to any indemnification claim arising out of any fraud on the part of the Seller.

(ii) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the aggregate amount payable by Purchaser under this Article VI exceed $3,000,000; provided, however, that the foregoing limitation shall not apply with respect to any indemnification claim arising out of any fraud on the part of Purchaser.

Section 6.6 Non-Exclusive Indemnification. The foregoing indemnification provisions are in addition to, and not in derogation of, any and all other statutory, equitable or common law rights and remedies any party hereto may have for any breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.

Section 6.7 Effect of Knowledge, Waivers, Etc.

(a) Effect of Waivers. The waiver of any condition relating to any representation, warranty, covenant, or obligation will not affect the right to indemnification, payment, reimbursement, or other remedy based upon such representation, warranty, covenant, or obligation.

(b) Exclusive Remedy. Purchaser further acknowledges and agrees that, should the Closing occur, its sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims relating to this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby, or Seller shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VI.

(c) Losses Net of Taxes, Insurance, etc. The amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided under this Article VI shall be net of any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party under insurance policies or other third-party payment or rights against third parties with respect to such Losses.

(d) Mitigation. Purchaser and Seller shall cooperate reasonably with each other with respect to resolving any claim or liability with respect to which one party is obligated to indemnify the other party hereunder, including by making commercially reasonably efforts to mitigate or resolve any such claim or liability. In the event that Purchaser or Seller shall fail to make such reasonable efforts to mitigate or resolve any claim or liability, then notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained herein, the other party shall not be required to indemnify any person for any Losses to the extent that it can demonstrate that such Losses could reasonably have been avoided if Purchaser or Seller, as the case may be, had made such reasonable efforts.

ARTICLE VII

ADDITIONAL POST-CLOSING COVENANTS

Section 7.1 Further Assurances. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at any time or from time to time after the Closing, at Purchaser’s request and without further consideration, Seller shall execute and deliver to Purchaser such other instruments of sale, transfer, conveyance, assignment and

confirmation, provide such materials and information and take such other actions as Purchaser may reasonably deem necessary in order more effectively to transfer, convey and assign to Purchaser, and to confirm Purchaser’s title to, all of the Assets, and, to the full extent permitted by Law, to put Purchaser in actual possession and operating control of the Business and the Assets and to assist Purchaser in exercising all rights with respect thereto, and otherwise to cause Seller to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement and the other Seller Documents.

Section 7.2 Non-Competition and Restrictive Covenants.

(a) Covenant Not to Compete by Seller. In order to induce Purchaser to enter into this Agreement and perform its obligations hereunder, Seller hereby makes the following covenants to Purchaser:

(i) Statement of Covenant. Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.11, at all times during the period commencing on the Closing Date and continuing until five (5) years after the date hereof (the “Restricted Period”), neither Seller, nor any of its Affiliates, shall, directly or indirectly, alone or in association with others, whether as owner, shareholder, employee, officer, director, partner, manager, member, trustee, lender, investor, consultant, principal, agent, independent contractor, co-venturer or in any other capacity, (A) engage or participate in any Competing Business (as defined below) or (B) invest in, hold a financial interest in, be in any way connected or affiliated with, or render advice or services to, any Person that is engaged in Competing Business. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein contained shall prevent Seller from acquiring and holding for investment up to two percent (2%) of any class of securities of any corporation, if such securities are listed or traded on a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter market.

(ii) Competing Business. For purposes of this Agreement, the phrase “Competing Business” means the business of providing design, engineering, procurement, construction, management and similar services to the Key Customers.

(iii) Interpretation of Covenant. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the scope, duration and area for which the covenant not to compete set forth in this Section 7.2(a) is to be effective are fair and reasonable and are reasonably necessary for the protection of Purchaser, its business and its trade secrets, the Assets and Business it is acquiring, and the Confidential Information (as defined below), Key Customer relationships and good will, and Seller hereby waives any objections to or defenses in respect thereof. In the event that any court of competent jurisdiction determines that any portion of the scope, time period or restricted area are unreasonable, arbitrary or against public policy, and that such covenant is to such extent unenforceable, illegal or invalid, the parties hereto agree that this Section 7.2(a) shall be deemed amended, and the court shall have the right to reform this Agreement, to delete or strike therefrom such provisions or portions determined to be unenforceable, illegal or invalid so that the remainder of the covenant set forth in this Section 7.2(a) shall remain in full force and effect, for the greatest scope and time period and in the greatest geographical area that would render it enforceable, legal and valid. The parties intend that the covenant set forth in this Section 7.2(a) shall be deemed to be a series of separable and independent covenants.

(b) Covenant Regarding Disclosure or Use of Confidential Information.

(i) Seller hereby acknowledges the confidential and proprietary nature of the Confidential Information (as defined below) and agrees that it shall, at all times on and after the Closing Date, (A) keep confidential and hold in confidence all Confidential Information, (B) not use any of Confidential Information for any reason or purpose, directly or indirectly, and (C) without limiting the foregoing, not disclose any Confidential Information to any Person, directly or indirectly, except with Purchaser’s prior consent.

(ii) The restrictions in clause (i) above shall not apply to the extent that (A) such Confidential Information becomes generally available to the public other than as a direct or indirect result of a disclosure by Seller, (B) such disclosure by Seller is necessary to prepare any Tax and similar forms and reports to Governmental Authorities, and/or (C) such disclosure is required or compelled by Order or otherwise required by any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority. In the event of clause (iii)(C) applies, Seller shall, to the extent

legally permissible, provide Purchaser with prompt notice of such compelled disclosure so that Purchaser may seek an appropriate protective order or other appropriate remedy or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 7.2(b), and will cooperate with Purchaser to minimize the extent of such compelled disclosure. In the absence of a protective order or other remedy, Seller may disclose that portion (and only that portion) of the Confidential Information that, based upon the opinion of counsel, Seller is legally compelled to disclose, provided that Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain written assurance that any Person to whom any Confidential Information is so disclosed shall accord confidential treatment to such Confidential Information.

(iii) As used herein, “Confidential Information” shall mean any and all non-public information, whether written, oral electronic or in any other format or media, related to (A) the Assets and the Business, (B) the business, affairs, activities, assets, properties, condition, operations (financial or otherwise) and prospects of Purchaser, (C) the names and backgrounds of an Transferred Employee or any other employee of Purchaser, and (D) the identity and location of Key Customers; provided, however, that general “know-how” regarding the operation and management of the Business and employee training techniques shall not be deemed Confidential Information. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Seller shall be permitted to market and advertise that it provided Business related services to the Key Customers prior to the Closing and such disclosure shall not be deemed Confidential Information.

(c) Non-Solicitation of Employees. Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.11, Seller agrees that, during and throughout the period commencing on the Closing Date and continuing until five (5) years after the date hereof (the “Restricted Period”, it shall not, and shall not permit its Affiliates, directly or indirectly, to (i) employ, hire, attempt to hire, recommend for hire, solicit, induce, recruit or otherwise engage any Transferred Employee or any other individual serving as an employee, officer or director of Purchaser at any time during the prior year (“Purchaser Person”), (ii) cause any Purchaser Person to (A) terminate such Purchaser Person’s employment, service or engagement with Purchaser, or (B) accept employment or engagement or otherwise render services to any other Person or business (wherever located, and regardless of type of business conducted); except for general solicitations through industry wide print-media not specifically directed at Purchaser Persons; or (iii) provide or furnish to any other Person any information (including information about the identity, experience, expertise, qualifications, special knowledge, personal characteristics, position, duties or compensation) about any Transferred Employee.

(d) Non-Solicitation of Key Customers. Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.11, Seller agrees that, during and throughout the Restricted Period, it shall not, and shall not permit its Affiliates, directly or indirectly, to solicit, contact or meet with (or attempt to do the same) any of the Key Customers or otherwise directly or indirectly cause either of them to (i) cease being, or not to become, a client or customer of Purchaser as relates to the Business, or (ii) reduce the amount of their Business with or otherwise divert any of their Business from Purchaser.

(e) Non-Interference with Business. Seller agrees that, during and throughout the Restricted Period, it shall not, and shall not permit its Affiliates, directly or indirectly, to interfere in any Business relationship between Purchaser and any other Key Customer.

(f) Non-Disparagement.

(i) Seller agrees that, during the Restricted Period, it shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, make, publish or otherwise communicate to any Person or in any public forum any statements, remarks or comments that disparage the business reputation of Purchaser or its business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, customers, suppliers, lenders or prospects, or of any of its directors, officers, employees, stockholders, agents, representatives or Affiliates or take any actions that are harmful to Purchaser’s goodwill with others; provided, however, that this covenant shall not in any way restrict or impede Seller from exercising its protected rights to the extent such rights cannot be waived by agreement or from complying with any applicable law or regulation or a valid order of a court of competent jurisdiction or a Governmental Authority, provided any statements made by Seller are known by Seller to be truthful and that Seller provides reasonable prior written notice of the same to Purchaser.

(ii) Purchaser agrees that, during the Restricted Period, it shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, make, publish or otherwise communicate to any Person or in any public forum any statements, remarks or comments that disparage the business reputation of Seller or its business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, customers, suppliers, lenders or prospects, or of any of its directors, officers, employees, stockholders, agents, representatives or Affiliates or take any actions that are harmful to Seller’s goodwill with others; provided, however, that this covenant shall not in any way restrict or impede Seller from exercising its protected rights to the extent such rights cannot be waived by agreement or from complying with any applicable law or regulation or a valid order of a court of competent jurisdiction or a Governmental Authority, provided any statements made by Purchaser are known by Purchaser to be truthful and that Purchaser provides reasonable prior written notice of the same to Purchaser.

(g) Equitable Relief. Each party hereto hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) the covenants in this Section 7.2 are of special, unique and personal character which gives them a peculiar value to Seller and Purchaser, (ii) any violation of these covenants would result in irreparable and immediate harm, damage and injury to Purchaser, and (iii) Purchaser cannot be reasonably or adequately compensated in money damages in an action at law in the event Seller breaches any obligations under this Section 7.2. Each party hereto therefore expressly agrees that, in addition to any other rights or remedies which Purchaser may have at law or in equity or by reason of any other agreement, Purchaser shall be entitled to obtain injunctive and other equitable relief in the form of temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctions in the event of any actual or threatened breach of any such obligation by Seller without the necessity of proving actual damages and without the necessity of posting any bond or other security. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prohibit Purchaser from pursuing any other remedy, and Seller agrees that all remedies under this Agreement, whether in or under law, equity or otherwise, of Purchaser and are cumulative.

(h) Acknowledgments. Seller acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser has acquired and intends to invest substantial time, money and other resources in developing and maintaining competitive advantage and its good will in its industry. Seller further acknowledges and agrees that the covenants contained in this Section 7.2 (i) are reasonable and necessary in all respects to protect the goodwill, trade secrets, Confidential Information and business interests of Purchaser; (ii) are not oppressive to Seller; and (iii) do not impose any greater restraint on Seller than is reasonably necessary to protect the goodwill, trade secrets, confidential information and legitimate business interests of Purchaser.

(i) Nature of Covenants. The covenants in this Agreement are independent covenants, and the existence of any claim by any party hereto against another party hereto under this Agreement or otherwise will not excuse a breach by a party hereto under, or waive any party’s obligation to perform, any of its covenants under this Section 7.2.

Section 7.3 Pre-Closing Records Relating to Business and Assets. At or promptly after the Closing, Seller shall transfer and deliver to Purchaser all material books, records and files relating to the Assets (the “Pre-Closing Records”); provided, however, that Seller shall be entitled to retain an copy of any such books, records and files for archival purposes and Seller shall not be required to deliver any employee or personnel files of any employee of Seller, including any Transferred Employee. For a period of three years after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall preserve all Pre-Closing Records, and shall provide reasonable access to Seller thereto and the right to make copies and extracts therefrom at any time during normal business hours, and shall not dispose of any Pre-Closing Records.

Section 7.4 Taxes.

(a) Pre-Closing. Seller shall be responsible for the timely preparation of all federal, state and local income, excise, withholding, property, sales, use, franchise and other Tax returns, reports and forms pertaining to the Assets and the Business for all taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date, and Seller shall be responsible for the payment in full of all amounts due thereunder.

(b) Due to Transactions. Seller shall pay all federal, state and local sales, use, income, franchise, worker’s compensation, unemployment documentary and other transfer Taxes and fees arising out of the transfer of the Assets and the Business in accordance herewith, and shall pay its portion, prorated as of the Closing Date, of all federal, state and local personal property taxes relating to the Assets. Purchaser shall not be responsible for any business, occupation, withholding, or similar tax, or any taxes of any kind related to the Assets or the Business being acquired for any period before the Closing Date. Seller shall indemnify, reimburse and hold Purchaser harmless in respect of any liability for payment of or failure to pay any such taxes or any filing of or failure to file any reports required in connection therewith.

(c) Post-Closing. Purchaser shall not utilize the tax identification number of Seller. Purchaser shall be responsible for the preparation of all federal, state and local income, excise, withholding, property, sales, use, franchise and other tax returns, reports and forms pertaining to the Business and the Assets for all taxable periods ending after the Closing Date, and for the payment of all amounts due thereunder.

(d) Tax Proceedings. In the case of an audit or proceeding by a Governmental Authority (“Tax Proceeding”) that relates to Taxes pertaining to the Assets or the Business during a period ending on or before the Closing Date, Purchaser shall have the right, in its sole discretion and at its expense, to control the conduct of such audit or proceeding and the defense and settlement thereof. Purchaser shall also control the defense and settlement of any Tax Proceeding pertaining to the Assets or the Business relating to taxable periods or portions thereof that begin on or after the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Seller nor Purchaser shall, without the prior written consent of the other (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) consent to, agree to pay or otherwise concede any proposed adjustment or any settlement or payment that would have a materially adverse effect on the taxes or obligations of the other party. In the defense of any such Tax Proceeding, each party agrees to provide reasonable access to, and the right to make copies of, the information, books and records relating to the Assets and the Business within its possession to the other party, and to provide reasonable access to the employees who are knowledgeable regarding the relevant tax matters

Section 7.5 Post-Closing Support. After the Closing, Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser and furnish to Purchaser such information, evidence, testimony and other assistance as Purchaser may reasonably request in connection with actions, proceedings, arrangements or disputes of any nature involving or affecting the Assets or Business which relate to matters which occurred prior to the Closing and in which Seller was involved or has any records, information or knowledge. Any out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred by Seller or its employees pursuant to this Section 7.5 shall be reimbursed by Purchaser.

Section 7.6 Business Permits. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and permitting requirements, Seller shall allow Purchaser to perform the work under all permits issued to Seller and necessary or appropriate for the performance of the Business (“Business Permits”). Seller shall maintain all Business Permits in full force and effect until such Business Permits can be transferred to, or separately obtained by, Purchaser. Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts (provided that Purchaser shall pay any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Seller provided prior notice and reasonable documentation thereof is provided) to assist Purchaser to transfer or obtain all such Business Permits required by Purchaser to conduct the Business.

Section 7.7 Third-Party Consents. At the Closing, Seller shall assign, and Purchaser shall assume and be entitled to, all rights, benefits, interests, duties and obligations under the Assumed Contracts. To the extent that any Assumed Contract is not assignable without the consent of any other party to such Contract (“Other Parties”), this Agreement shall not constitute an assignment or an attempted assignment thereof if such assignment or attempted assignment would constitute a breach thereof or a default thereunder (the “Non-Assignable Contracts”). For Non-Assignable Contracts, Seller shall use good faith, commercially reasonable efforts for 30 days following the Closing Date to obtain the consent of the third party to assignment to Purchaser of the Assumed Contract. For Non-Assignable Contracts, at and following the Closing, until consent to the assignment of the Assumed Contract to Purchaser is obtained, Purchaser shall act as a sub-contractor to Seller in performing the obligations of Seller arising after the Closing Date in a manner to provide Purchaser all of the benefits (including the proceeds of all payments made by the third party customer with respect to such Assumed Contract, which if paid by such customer to Seller shall promptly, and in no event more than three (3) Business

Days after receipt, be delivered by Seller to Purchaser in full, without deduction of any kind or amount, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Purchaser) intended to be assigned to Purchaser under the applicable Assumed Contract. At the Closing, any Transferred Employees relating to the Non-Assignable Contract shall become employees of Purchaser.

Section 7.8 Delivery of Audited and Other Required Financial Statements of the Business.

(a) Seller shall reasonably cooperate with and use its good faith, commercially reasonable efforts with respect to, the prompt delivery of all financial statements and information and books and records of the Business necessary for Purchaser to meet, on a timely basis, its SEC filing obligations with respect to the historical and pro forma financial statements and information required by the SEC’s Current Report on Form 8-K as a result of the purchase and sale contemplated by this Agreement (the “Required Financial Statement Filing”), including but not limited to the following financial statements of Seller pertaining to the Business (excluding the Excluded Assets): (i) the audited balance sheets as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 (and, if necessary for Purchaser to meet its SEC reporting requirements under the aforementioned Form 8-K, 2011) and the related statements of income and cash flows for the fiscal years then ended, together with all related notes and schedules thereto, (ii) the unaudited balance sheet as of the Closing Date, (iii) the related statements of income for the period in 2014 ending with the Closing Date, and (iv) any other annual or quarterly unaudited financial statements necessary for Purchaser to meet its SEC reporting requirements, together with all related notes and schedules thereto. Seller shall provide to the Auditor timely access to all books, record and employees of the Business that the Auditor deems necessary to conduct and complete such audit, and shall promptly respond to any requests for information by the Auditor in that connection. Seller and Purchaser shall each bear and pay one-half (50%) of the fees and expenses of the preparation of, audit and other work required to be done for the Required Financial Statement Filing by ▇▇▇▇ & Associates LLP or another accounting firm (the “Auditor”) selected by Purchaser and reasonably acceptable to the Seller.

(b) Seller hereby represents and warrants to and for the benefit of Purchaser that, if and when delivered to Purchaser, all such Financial Statements will (x) present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Business as of the respective dates thereof and for the respective periods covered thereby; (y) have been prepared in accordance and consistent with the books and records of Business and (z) have been prepared in accordance with the GAAP, consistently applied throughout the periods involved.

(c) In the event that Seller breaches its obligations in Section 7.8(a), or takes any other action or makes any other omission, which results in the Auditor being unable to conduct and complete its audit in a timely fashion and Purchaser unable to make the Required Financial Statement Filing when required by SEC rules and regulations, then Seller shall (1) pay Purchaser, within ten business days of Purchaser delivering Seller notice thereof, the sum of $1,000,000 by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Seller, and (2) waive and forfeit any rights to 50% of Earn-Out Amount that would otherwise have been payable by Purchaser to Seller under Section 2.3.

Section 7.9 Post-Closing Insurance. For a period of up to 90 days (in the discretion of Purchaser) after the Closing Date, Seller shall maintain insurance with respect to the Assets and the Business at the same levels as prior to the Closing, and Purchaser shall reimburse Seller for Seller’s incremental out-of-pocket costs of such post-Closing insurance.

Section 7.10 Warranty Claims. For a period of 24 months after the Closing Date, Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for its actual out-of-pocket cost and expenses (excluding any overhead or management fees) for any warranty claims with respect to any goods, services or technologies sold or otherwise provided prior to the Closing, as to which Purchaser performs the reasonably necessary warranty work (the “Warranty Claims”). Seller’s Liability for the Warranty Claims as provided in this Section 7.9 shall be in addition to, and not a part of, Seller’s indemnification obligations under Article VI, and shall not be subject to the limitations on indemnity set forth in Section 6.5.

Section 7.11 Existing Projects. Following the Closing Seller shall be permitted to complete the existing projects set forth on Schedule 7.11 (the “Existing Projects”). Seller shall be entitled to retain only those of its employees in the Business (the “Existing Project Business Employees”) that are specifically necessary to enable Seller to complete these Existing Projects only for the purpose of and only for the amount of time necessary for completing the Existing Projects pursuant to the terms thereof, all as specified on Schedule 7.11. Seller shall be entitled to be paid directly by customer of the Existing Projects for such work and to retain all such payments, provided that all compensation and other employer-related obligations relating to the Existing Project Business Employees shall be paid and satisfied by Seller and shall not be a debt, liability or obligation of Purchaser and shall not be assumed by Purchaser, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 7.11 to the contrary, unless and until such Existing Project Business Employees thereafter become Transferred Employees. Upon the earlier of the completion of these Existing Projects or November 30, 2014 (the “Existing Project Deadline”), the Existing Project Business Employees shall become Transferred Employees and employees of Purchaser, provided that if the Existing Projects have not been completed on or before the Existing Project Deadline, Seller shall have the option to lease such Existing Project Business Employees at a weekly rate equal to the sum of (i) the employee’s annual salary (including any vehicle and/or gas allowance) set forth on Schedule 3.10 multiplied by 1.35, with the resulting product divided by 52 weeks, plus (ii) any reimbursable expenses, such as travel expenses and materials.
