The term “ISRA Compliance” as used herein shall mean that Seller shall have received (i) a Response Action Outcome (“▇▇▇”) from a Licensed Site Remediation Professional (“LSRP”) or an NFA from the DEP, approving Seller’s negative declaration; (ii) a ▇▇▇ from an LSRP or NFA letter from the DEP approving the Remedial Action Report or similar report setting forth the remedial action undertaken to implement the approved ISRA Remedial Action Workplan, but subject to satisfying any initial Remedial Action (“RA”) permit requirements arising post-▇▇▇ or post-NFA from the approved RAWP (but not any Remedial Action permit requirements after securing the RA permit and undertaking any initial requirements in connection therewith); or (iii) a De Minimis Quantity Exemption, subject to and in accordance with applicable ISRA regulations. For purposes of this Section 6(k), the term “Hazardous Substances” shall have the same meaning as defined in ISRA. After Closing, Buyer shall not take any action, including without limitation any construction activity, which materially interferes with or prohibits the achievement of ISRA Compliance or UST Case Closure without Seller’s approval. Subject to Buyer’s right to review in advance and comment upon Seller’s proposed remediation workplan(s), Buyer agrees to allow Seller to use any method available at law to achieve ISRA Compliance and UST Case Closure, including, without limitation, engineering controls or institutional controls as defined in N.J.S.A. 58:10B-1, classification exception areas, or well restriction areas, provided such engineering controls, institutional controls, classification exception areas and well restriction areas do not adversely impact Buyer’s full use of the Real Property as used on the date of this Agreement. Buyer agrees to execute any document necessary or helpful in the effort to achieve the goals of this Section 6(k), whether before or after Closing. Once Seller has achieved ISRA Compliance and UST Case Closure, Buyer shall be responsible, at its sole cost and expense, for complying with any and all further requirements of Environmental Laws, including without limitation any monitoring, reporting or other conditions of the ISRA Compliance, subject to the provisions of subsection 6(k)(vi) below concerning funding sources for such monitoring, reporting and conditions of ISRA Compliance and UST Case Closure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, compliance with any additional remediation requirements arising from a DEP audit undertaken pursuant to the Site Remediation Reform Act (“SRRA”) of an ▇▇▇ obtained by Seller in connection with ISRA Compliance or UST Case Closure (“DEP ▇▇▇ Audit”) shall be Seller’s responsibility.

(iii). Buyer shall be liable for any Hazardous Substances on, at, from or of the Real Property the Discharge of which occurs on or after the Closing Date unless caused by Seller or Seller’s agents, representatives, consultants or contractors, including, without limitation, all costs incurred to achieve ISRA Compliance and UST Case Closure for such Hazardous Substances. Buyer hereby releases Seller from and agrees to indemnify and hold Seller harmless from any and all liability of any nature arising out of, or in any way related to, any Discharge of Hazardous Substances on, at, from or of the Real Property (i) which occurs on or after the Closing Date, unless caused by Seller or Seller’s agents, representatives, consultants or contractors; or (ii) which remains on the Real Property after Seller achieves ISRA Compliance and UST Case Closure, provided that in the event that any additional remediation requirements arising from a DEP ▇▇▇ Audit results in the identification of Hazardous Substances on, at, from or of the Real Property existing on or prior to the Closing Date, then such Hazardous Substances shall remain the responsibility and obligation of Seller to address in accordance with this Section 6(k).

(iv). Buyer waives any right it may have now or in the future to void the conveyance by Seller to Buyer. Further, so long as Seller uses reasonable efforts and acts reasonably and in good faith to avoid interfering with Buyer’s operations on the Real Property and is complying with the obligations under this Section 6(k), including but not limited to providing Buyer with adequate advanced notice and the opportunity to comment upon any proposed remediation work pursuant to Section 6(k)(ii) above, Buyer waives any right it may have now or in the future to assert any claim on its behalf, or on behalf of any third party, against Seller arising from or in any way related to interference with the right to the quiet use and enjoyment of the Real Property, including, without limitation, loss of income, rents or profits, arising from the presence of Hazardous Substances at the Real Property or the effort to achieve ISRA Compliance.

(v). Seller shall be solely responsible for all proposals, negotiations, discussions and agreements with the DEP pursuant to ISRA and the effort to obtain UST Case Closure. Unless and until either (A) it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that Seller is not diligently and reasonably pursuing achievement of ISRA Compliance or (B) DEP indicates in writing its conclusion that Seller is not complying with (i) its obligations under ISRA or (ii) the applicable requirements under either the Administrative Rules for Remediation of Contaminated Sites, N.J.A.C. 7:26C-1 et seq., or the Technical Requirements for Site Remediation, N.J.A.C. 7:26E-1 et seq., Buyer shall not propose, negotiate, discuss or agree with the DEP to anything pertaining to Seller’s efforts to comply with ISRA or obtain UST Case Closure without Seller’s written consent and/or Seller’s presence during any such discussion between Buyer and DEP; and if Buyer violates the provisions of this sentence Buyer shall pay for whatever it proposed, negotiated, discussed or agreed to in excess of what Seller had proposed, negotiated, discussed or agreed to. Buyer shall reasonably cooperate with Seller in Seller’s efforts to achieve ISRA Compliance, including, without limitation, the execution of any and all documents which must be executed by Buyer before or after the Closing.

(vi). Financial assurance as required pursuant to ISRA shall be established pursuant to and in accordance with ISRA regulations and posted at the Closing in the form of a remediation trust fund (the “Remediation Funding Source”) which form shall comply with ISRA, in the amount of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) and shall be funded as provided at Section 2(a)(i). Seller shall be permitted to withdraw funds from the Remediation Funding Source to pay for any and all costs of Seller reasonably necessary to obtain ISRA Compliance and comply with ISRA (such costs “ISRA Compliance Costs”). Upon Seller’s receipt of ISRA Compliance, the funds held in the Remediation Funding Source shall be released to Seller, provided, however, that if funds are required pursuant to ISRA or NJDEP rules to remain in the Remediation Funding Source to pay for monitoring, reporting or other post-▇▇▇ or post-NFA conditions of the ISRA Compliance, such funds shall remain in the Remediation Funding Source. The remainder of the Remediation Funding Source, if any, shall be released to Seller, and Buyer shall be permitted to withdraw such funds retained in the Remediation Funding Source to pay for the monitoring, reporting or other post-▇▇▇ or post-NFA conditions of the ISRA Compliance. Subject to the requirements of Schedule II of the Escrow Agreement, Seller shall be permitted to withdraw funds from the Environmental Escrow as set forth in the Escrow Agreement to pay for any and all costs of Seller which specifically relates to obtaining the UST Case Closure (including to the extent UST Case Closure is achieved through achieving ISRA Compliance, to comply with ISRA with respect to the UST Case Closure). Seller shall be entitled to withdraw funds from the Environmental Escrow to pay the costs of the UST Case Closure; however, any expense incurred to obtain both UST Case Closure and ISRA Compliance shall be presumed to be 50% for UST Case Closure for purposes of withdrawing funds from the Environmental Escrow. Upon Seller’s receipt of UST Case Closure, Seller shall be entitled to withdraw funds from the Environmental Escrow to fund any funding source that has been established (including, if applicable, the Remediation Funding Source) or is required by Environmental Laws or NJDEP regulations to be established to secure performance of any monitoring, reporting or other post-▇▇▇ or post-NFA conditions specific to the UST Case Closure. In the event that Seller opts to use the Remediation Funding Source to address any post-▇▇▇ or post-NFA conditions specific to the UST Case Closure, the cost for any such remediation work that would concurrently promote the achievement of both ISRA Compliance and UST Case Closure would be allocated on a 50%-50% basis between the funds originating from the Environmental Escrow and the funds which were originally used to establish the Remediation Funding Source.

(vii). The provisions of this Paragraph 6 shall survive the Closing.

(l). Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation.

(i). Parent and Seller each agrees that it will not at any time, within the five-year period immediately following the Closing Date, directly or indirectly, invest in, own, manage, operate, finance, control, advise, render services to or guaranty the obligations or otherwise engage in, or have any interest in, any person, firm, corporation, or business (whether as an employee, officer, director, agent, security holder, creditor, consultant, or otherwise) that engages or plans to engage in any activity in the states of New York, New Jersey, Delaware and Pennsylvania, which activity is the same as, similar to, or competitive with the fixed base operation business which comprises the Aviation Business. Notwithstanding the foregoing, ownership by Parent or Seller, as a passive investment, of less than two percent (2%) of the outstanding shares of capital stock, outstanding debt instruments or other securities convertible into capital stock or debt instruments of any corporation listed on a national securities exchange or publicly traded on any nationally recognized over the counter market shall not constitute a breach of this Section 6(l)(i).

(ii). Seller and Parent each agrees not to divulge, communicate, use to the detriment of Buyer or for the benefit of any other person or person, or misuse in any way, any confidential information or trade secrets of Seller or the Aviation Business, including personnel information, customer lists, or other confidential technical data. After the Closing Date, Seller and Parent each agrees that Seller and Parent will not disparage Buyer or any of Buyer’s members, directors, officers, employees or agents.

(iii). Seller and Parent each agrees that it will not at any time within the five-year period immediately following the Closing Date, directly or indirectly: (i) cause or attempt to cause any employee of Buyer to terminate his or her employment or agency relationship with Buyer; (ii) interfere or attempt to interfere with the relationship between Buyer, on the one hand, and any employee of Buyer, on the other hand; (iii) solicit or attempt to solicit (other than by means of an advertisement directed towards the general public) any employee, customer or supplier of Buyer; (iv) conduct business related to the Aviation Business of any kind with any employee of Buyer; or (v) solicit or attempt to solicit, approach or accept an approach from a Person who was at any time during the twenty-four (24) months ending on the Closing Date a customer or client of Aviation with a view to obtaining them as a customer in a business that is the same as or in competition with the Aviation Business. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 6(l)(iii) shall prevent Seller or Parent from hiring any individual who applies for employment without prior solicitation by Seller or Parent (other than by means of advertisement directed towards the general public).

(iv). In the event of any actual or threatened breach of any part of this Section 6(l) by Seller or Parent, or any of their respective executive officers, Buyer shall be entitled to injunctive relief and to such other relief as may be proper.

(m). Proration. The parties shall prorate all prepaid expenses arising out of the operation of the Business that are incurred, accrued or payable, as of the Closing Date. The items to be prorated shall include power and utilities charges, lease payments, real and personal property taxes upon the basis of the most recent tax bills and information available, security deposits, and similar prepaid and deferred items. On the Closing Date, the prorations shall, insofar as determinable, be calculated and paid on the Closing Date in cash or other immediately available funds, but not as an adjustment to the Purchase Price. Any prorations, to the extent not determined on the Closing Date shall be determined within 90 days of the Closing Date, with final settlement and payment in cash or other immediately available funds to be made within ten days after the determination thereof. In the event of any disputes among the parties as to such prorations, the amounts not in dispute will nonetheless be paid at such time and such disputes will be resolved by an independent certified pubic accountant mutually acceptable to the parties, and the fees and expenses of such accountant will be paid one-half by Sellers and one-half by Buyer. The decision of such accountant will be conclusive and binding on the parties.

(n). Post-Closing Access. From and after the Closing, Buyer shall provide to Seller and its accountants, counsel and other representatives access to such books and records of the Aviation as may be reasonably required by Seller to comply with applicable laws; provided that Seller shall maintain the confidentiality of all such information.

Section 7. BANKRUPTCY MATTERS.

(a). Bankruptcy Filings by Seller. Within two (2) business days of the execution of this Agreement, Seller will file and serve and thereafter diligently prosecute:

(i). the Sale Procedures Notice requesting the entry of the Sale Procedures Order substantially in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit C (the “Sale Procedures Order”) approving the bidding procedures and the bidding protections set forth therein (the “Bidding Procedures”); and

(ii). a motion with the Bankruptcy Court (the “Sale Motion”) requesting entry of an order substantially in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit B (the “Sale Order”) that approves the sale of the Assets to Buyer on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and authorizes and directs the Seller to proceed with the Closing.

(b). Service of Sale Motion. Except to the extent determined by the Bankruptcy Court, Seller will serve a copy of the Sale Motion in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code and the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure. Seller will provide Buyer with a list of such Persons to which service of the Sale Motion has been provided and agrees to serve such other persons as Buyer reasonably requests.

(c). Copies of Pleadings. Seller shall provide Buyer with drafts of all documents, motions, orders, filings or pleadings that it proposes to file with the Bankruptcy Court that relate to the approval of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and will provide Buyer with reasonable opportunity to review and approve such filings. Seller shall also promptly (within one (1) business day) provide Buyer with copies of all pleadings received by or served by or upon Seller in connection with the Bankruptcy Case that relate to or may reasonably be expected to affect the transactions provided for in this Agreement and which have not otherwise been served on Buyer.

Section 14. EXPENSES.

(a). Transaction Expenses and Break-Up Fee. In consideration of the due diligence and good faith negotiations conducted by and on behalf of the Buyer and of Buyer’s entering into this Agreement, and in recognition of the Buyer’s work in (i) establishing a bid standard or minimum for other bidders; (ii) placing estate property in a sales configuration mode attracting other bidders; and (iii) serving, by its name and its expressed interest, as a catalyst for other bidders, Seller shall timely request and diligently prosecute approval of the Bankruptcy Court to pay Buyer (a) all reasonable and documented, out-of-pocket third party and internal attributed expenses associated with the investigation, underwriting, due diligence, negotiation, documentation and consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and fees and expenses of legal counsel, accounting and environmental consultants, in an amount not to exceed $300,000.00 (the “Transaction Expenses”), and (b) a break-up fee in the amount of $200,000 (the “Break-Up Fee”). The Transaction Expenses and the Break-Up Fee shall be payable only in the event the Assets are sold to a third party (an “Alternate Transaction”) or the Closing does not occur due to Seller’s willful and material breach of its obligations under the Agreement, including its willful abandonment of the sale process (collectively, a “Willful Seller Termination”). The Transaction Expenses and the Break-Up Fee shall be subject to Bankruptcy Court approval and allowance. Seller will use their best efforts to secure approval of the Transaction Expenses and the Break-Up Fee by the Bankruptcy Court. In the event the Bankruptcy Court approves an Alternate Transaction, the Transaction Expenses and the Break-Up Fee shall be payable to Buyer three (3) business days after the date of Closing of an Alternate Transaction and approval of the Transaction Expenses and the Break-Up Fee by the Bankruptcy Court. Nothing herein shall prohibit or be deemed to prohibit Buyer in the case of a Willful Seller Termination from filing a motion before the Bankruptcy Court, on notice to Seller, for the payment of its allowed Transaction Expenses and/or the Break-Up Fee (to the extent not otherwise paid to Buyer) prior to the confirmation of any plan in Seller’s bankruptcy cases.

(b). Obligation for Fees and Expenses. Except with respect to the Transaction Expenses, Seller agrees that all fees and expenses incurred by Seller in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution or performance of this Agreement shall be borne by Seller and Buyer agrees that all fees and expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution or performance of this Agreement shall be borne by Buyer.

Section 15. WAIVER. Any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement may be waived at any time and from time to time in writing by the party entitled to the benefits thereof without affecting any other terms or conditions of this Agreement.

Section 16. NOTICES, ETC.

Section 17. ENTIRE AGREEMENT: AMENDMENT. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement and understanding of the parties in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby and supersedes all prior agreements, arrangements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof including all such agreements, arrangements and understandings between Seller and Buyer. No representation, promise, inducement or statement of intention has been made by Seller or Buyer which is not embodied in this Agreement, the Schedules hereto, or the written statements, certificates or other documents delivered pursuant hereto, and neither Seller nor Buyer shall be bound by or liable for any alleged representation, promise, inducement or statement of intention not so set forth.

Section 18. DISCLOSURE. Neither Seller nor Buyer shall issue any press releases or make any public announcements of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement except as may be mutually agreed to in writing by Seller and Buyer after the execution of this Agreement; provided, that Seller and Buyer shall be permitted, upon prior notice to the other parties, to make such disclosures to the public or governmental authorities as their respective counsel shall deem necessary to maintain compliance with, or to prevent violation of, applicable laws or as required by the Bankruptcy Court or the Bankruptcy Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any provision to the contrary contained herein, Buyer acknowledges that Seller is a publicly traded company with reporting obligations under the Federal securities laws and that, as a consequence, Seller will publicly disclose this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby as well as file a copy of this Agreement with the Securities and Exchange Commission together with any exhibits or schedules as may be required by the Securities and Exchange Commission and/or applicable laws, rules and/or regulations. Buyer agrees to provide all reasonable cooperation to Seller in connection with any of Seller’s disclosure obligations relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 19. GENERAL.
