(a) Calculation of Earn-Out Payment. As part of the Purchase Price for the Transferred Shares, the Purchaser shall pay to the Owners up to One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000) in cash as an earn-out payment (the “Earn-Out Payment”). One half of the Earn-Out Payment shall be payable to Owners if the total amount of the EBITDA for the twelve-month period ending on the one year anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Earn-Out Period”) is equal to or greater than $2,250,000 but less than $2,500,000 and the entire Earn Out Payment shall be payable to Owners if the total amount of the EBITDA for the Earn-Out Period is equal to or exceeds $2,500,000.

Within thirty (30) days of completion of Purchaser's audit for 2007, but in no event later than April 30, 2008, the Purchaser will deliver to the Owner Representative a notice (the “Earn-Out Notice”) setting forth Purchaser’s determination of the EBITDA for the Earn-Out Period and stating whether the Owners are entitled to the Earn-Out Payment, in whole or in part. If the Earn-Out Notice provides that the Owners are entitled to all or half of the Earn-Out Payment, the Purchaser shall make the applicable Earn-Out Payment no later than thirty (30) days following delivery of the Earn-Out Notice. If the Earn-Out Notice provides that Owners are not entitled to any or only half of the Earn-Out Payment, and the Owner Representative disagrees with Purchaser’s determination, the Owner Representative shall notify the Purchaser no later than 30 days after the Earn-Out Notice is delivered of its objections and the basis therefor. If an objection is made, the Purchaser and the Owner Representative will negotiate in good faith to reach an agreement regarding the matters in dispute. Purchaser agrees to provide the Owner Representative promptly upon request with all documents and work papers related to Purchaser's determination of EBITDA for the Earn-Out Period. If the Purchaser and the Owner Representative, notwithstanding such good faith effort, fail to resolve all matters in dispute within 30 days after the Owner Representative advises the Purchaser of its objections (the "Resolution Period"), then any remaining disputed matters will be submitted by the Purchaser and the Owner Representative to ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or another mutually acceptable independent accounting firm (the “Neutral Auditor”) for a determination resolving such amounts and issues. Each party agrees to execute, if requested by the Neutral Auditor, a reasonable engagement letter with respect to the determination to be made by the Neutral Auditor. All fees and expenses relating to the work, if any, to be performed by the Neutral Auditor shall be borne by the party that does not prevail in such dispute (i.e., if the Owners are awarded any portion of the Earn Out Payment not already paid by Purchaser then such fees and expenses will be borne by the Purchaser, and if it is finally determined that the Owners are not owed any, or any additional Earn-Out Payment, then such fees and expenses shall be borne by the Owners pro rata based on the Payment Factor). Except as provided in the preceding sentence, all other costs and expenses incurred by the parties in connection with resolving any dispute hereunder before the Neutral Auditor shall be borne by the party incurring such cost and expense. The Neutral Auditor shall determine only those issues still in dispute at the end of the Resolution Period and the Neutral Auditor’s determination shall be based upon and consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The determination by the Neutral Auditor shall be based solely on presentations with respect to such disputed items by the Purchaser and the Owner Representative to the Neutral Auditor and not on the Neutral Auditor’s independent review. The Purchaser and the Owner Representative shall use their reasonable best efforts to make their respective presentations as promptly as practicable following submission to the Neutral Auditor of the disputed items, and each such party shall be entitled, as part of its presentation, to respond to the presentation of the other party and any questions and requests of the Neutral Auditor. In deciding any matter, the Neutral Auditor (i) shall be bound by the provisions of this Section 3.2(b) and (ii) may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either the Purchaser or the Owner Representative or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by the Purchaser or the Owner Representative. The Neutral Auditor’s determination shall be made within 45 days after its engagement (which engagement shall be made no later than five (5) Business Days after the end of the Resolution Period), or as soon thereafter as possible, shall be set forth in a written statement delivered to the Purchaser and the Owner Representative and shall be final, conclusive, non-appealable and binding for all purposes hereunder; provided that such determination may be reviewed, corrected or set aside by a court of competent jurisdiction but only if upon a finding that the Neutral Auditor committed manifest error with respect to its determination. The determination of the Neutral Auditor shall not be deemed an award subject to review under the Federal Arbitration Act or any other statute.

(i) Purchaser shall, and shall cause the Company, to operate their respective businesses in a manner reasonably consistent with past practices of Purchaser and Company, as applicable, but taking into account the acquisition of the Company by the Purchaser as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Purchaser, changes in the administrative operations of the Company as a result of such acquisition, and other changes reasonably related to the Company being a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Purchaser; provided, however, that Purchaser shall not cause the Company to pay a management fee or other payment to Purchaser or any Affiliate of Purchaser unless such amount is excluded from the computation of EBITDA. The Purchaser shall, and shall cause the Company to, remain in material compliance with all applicable Laws (including but not limited to the Federal Acquisition Regulations) and shall not take any action with the purpose or effect of causing Purchaser to not be required to pay the Earn-Out Payment to Owners.

(ii) In the event, that during the Earn-Out Period, the Purchaser or the Company determines to sell, transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of (directly or indirectly) any assets used primarily in the businesses of Company and Purchaser (other than any of Purchaser's Affiliates, in which event the EBITDA arising from such assets shall be allocated to Company and Purchaser for purposes of calculating whether the targets described in Section 3.2(a) were achieved), or consummate a Change of Control, then the Purchaser shall pay to the Owners in cash the full Earn-Out Payment.

3.3. Form of Payments.

(a) All payments of cash under this Agreement and the Note shall be made in United Stated Dollars by delivery to the recipient by depositing, by bank wire transfer, the required amount (in immediately available funds) in an account of the recipient, which account shall be designated by the recipient in writing at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date of the required payment and all payments of Purchaser Stock shall be made by delivery of a certificate representing the number of Purchaser Shares to be received by each Owner to the address designated by each Owner on Schedule O. In the case of all payments to be made to the Owners under this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, either cash or Purchaser Shares, each Owner shall receive an amount equal to the aggregate payment multiplied by the Payment Factor.

(b) The Owner Representative has established a separate bank account for the Cash and the cash portion of any payments to be made to the Owners under this Agreement. Prior to the distribution of the Cash and the cash portion of any payments to be made to the Owners under this Agreement, the Owner Representative shall pay from such amounts the Company Expenses, with each Owner receiving an amount equal to the balance multiplied by the Payment Factor.

3.4. Escrow.

(a) To secure the indemnification obligations of Owners set forth in Article 10, Purchaser and each Owner shall at the Closing execute an Escrow Agreement, a form of which is attached to this Agreement as Exhibit D (the “Escrow Agreement”), which provides for Three Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars ($350,000) and 5,833,333 Purchaser Common Shares to be held in escrow following the Closing Date (the "Escrow Deposit"). Any balance of the Escrow Deposit remaining and due to the Owners in accordance with this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, plus any interest or income earned on such Escrow Deposit that has not been so paid, by the date that is eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date, less any amounts necessary to secure any timely asserted and pending but unresolved Purchaser claims for indemnification pursuant to Article 10 shall be paid to the Owners within thirty (30) days of the date that is eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date (the "Escrow Balance").

(a) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty by the Company or the Owners under this Agreement or any document, instrument, certificate or other item furnished or to be furnished to Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and

(b) any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant or agreement to be performed by the Company or the Owners under this Agreement or any document, instrument, certificate or other item furnished or to be furnished to Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

10.2. The Purchaser’s Indemnification. From and after the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless each Owner and any Owner Affiliate, and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns and legal representatives, from and against all Indemnifiable Losses that may be imposed upon, incurred by or asserted against any of them resulting from, related to, or arising out of:

(d) any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant or agreement to be performed by the Purchaser under this Agreement or any document, instrument, certificate or other item furnished or to be furnished to the Company and/or Owners pursuant hereto or thereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

10.3. Payment; Procedure for Indemnification.

(a) In the event that a Person shall suffer an Indemnifiable Loss and seek indemnification under this Article (the “Indemnified Party”) he, she or it shall give written notice to the Owners (the “Noticed Party,” and the party(ies) from whom indemnification under this Article is sought, the “Indemnifying Party”) of the amount of the Indemnifiable Loss, together with reasonably sufficient information to enable the Noticed Party to determine the accuracy and nature of the claimed Indemnifiable Loss (the “Indemnity Notice”). The failure of any Indemnified Party to give the Noticed Party the Indemnity Notice promptly after actual notice of the Indemnifiable Loss shall not release the Indemnifying Party of liability under this Article; provided, however that the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for Indemnifiable Losses incurred by the Indemnified Party that would not have been incurred but for the delay in the delivery of, or the failure to deliver, the Indemnity Notice. Within 30 days after the receipt by the Noticed Party of the Indemnity Notice, the Noticed Party shall do one of the following and decide whether or not to raise any objection: (i) provide notice to the Indemnifying Party directing the Indemnifying Party to pay to the Indemnified Party an amount equal to the Indemnifiable Loss or (ii) object to such claim, in which case the Noticed Party shall give written notice to the Indemnified Party of such objection together with the reasons therefor, it being understood that the failure of the Noticed Party to so object shall preclude the Noticed Party from asserting any claim, defense or counterclaim relating to the Indemnifying Party’s failure to pay any Indemnifiable Loss that was the subject of such Notice. The Noticed Party’s objection shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from its obligations under this Article.

(b) In the event the facts giving rise to the claim for indemnification under this Article shall involve any action or threatened claim or demand by any third party against the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party, within the earlier of, as applicable, 10 days after receiving a written notice of the filing of a lawsuit or 30 days after receiving notice of the existence of a claim or demand giving rise to the claim for indemnification, shall send written notice of such claim to the Noticed Party (the “Claim Notice”). The failure of the Indemnified Party to give the Noticed Party the Claim Notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party of liability under this Article; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for Indemnifiable Losses incurred by the Indemnified Party that would not have been incurred but for the delay in the delivery of, or the failure to deliver, the Claim Notice. Except for claims resulting from, relating to, or arising out of any dispute with the Company’s customers or suppliers, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to defend such claim in the name of the Indemnified Party at the Indemnifying Party’s own expense and through counsel of the Indemnifying Party’s own choosing; provided, that if the applicable claim or demand is against, or if the defendants in any such Legal Proceeding shall include, both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party reasonably concludes that there are defenses available to it that are different or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party or if the interests of the Indemnified Party may be reasonably deemed to conflict with those of the Indemnifying Party, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to select separate counsel and to assume and control the defense of such claim, demand or Legal Proceeding, with the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of such counsel to be reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party as incurred. The Indemnifying Party shall give the Indemnified Party notice in writing within 10 days after receiving the Claim Notice from the Indemnified Party in the event of litigation, or otherwise within 30 days, of its intent to defend such claim. In the case of any claim resulting from, relating to or arising out of any dispute with any of the Company’s customers or suppliers, Purchaser shall have the sole right to control the defense thereof. Whenever the Indemnifying Party is entitled to defend any claim under this Section 10.2(b), the Indemnified Party may elect, by notice in writing to the Noticed Party, to continue to participate through its own counsel, at the Indemnified Party’s expense, but the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to control the defense of the claim or the litigation. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense of any claim, demand or Legal Proceeding that the Indemnifying Party has and for which the Indemnifying Party has elected to defend pursuant to this Section 10.2(b).

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, the party controlling the defense of the claim or the litigation shall not settle any such claim or litigation without the prior written consent of the Noticed Party for the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, that if the Indemnified Party is controlling the defense of the claim or the litigation and shall have, in good faith, negotiated a settlement thereof, which proposed settlement contains terms that are reasonable under the circumstances, then the Noticed Party for the Indemnifying Party shall not withhold or delay the giving of such consent. In the event that the Indemnifying Party is controlling the defense of the claim or the litigation and shall have negotiated a settlement thereof, which proposed settlement is substantively final and unconditional as to the parties thereto (other than the consent of the Noticed Party for the Indemnified Party required under this Section 10.2(c)) and contains an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party and does not include the taking of any actions by, or the imposition of any restrictions on the part of, the Indemnified Party and the Noticed Party for the Indemnified Party shall unreasonably refuse to consent to such settlement, the liability of the Indemnifying Party under this Article, upon the ultimate disposition of such litigation or claim, shall be limited to the amount of the proposed settlement; provided, however, that in the event the proposed settlement shall require that the Indemnified Party make an admission of liability, a confession of judgment, or shall contain any other non-financial obligation which, in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnified Party, renders such settlement unacceptable, then the Indemnified Party’s failure to consent shall not give rise to the foregoing limitation of the Indemnifying Party’s liability as provided for in this Section 10.2(c), and the Indemnifying Party shall continue to be liable to the full extent of such litigation or claim.

(d) The party controlling the defense of the claim or the litigation shall provide to the non-controlling party a report as to the status of each claim for indemnification pursuant to this Article no less frequently than once every three months so long as such claim is outstanding.

(e) The non-controlling party in the defense of the claim or the litigation shall have the right to consult with the controlling party and the controlling party shall facilitate such consultation with respect to the conduct and results of the proceeding and the strategy of the controlling party for addressing the matters that are the basis of such claim. Upon reasonable request by the non-controlling party, the controlling party shall provide the notice, copies, access and right of consultation provided for herein with respect to any claim for indemnification pursuant to this Agreement.

(f) Notwithstanding any indemnification or defense arrangement between the parties to this Agreement to the contrary, the parties agree to cooperate with each other in pursuing any claims against any Person who may be liable for any Losses or Liabilities which are the subject of an Indemnity Notice, and in pursuing any available claims against insurers who may have provided insurance coverage for any such Losses or Liabilities.

10.4. Limitations. The Owners' indemnification obligations under Section 10.1(a) shall not arise unless the aggregate amount of Indemnifiable Losses for which the Owners are so required to indemnify exceeds $25,000, but in such event, the Owners shall be required to indemnify the Indemnified Party for all Indemnifiable Losses, including the initial $25,000 of Indemnifiable Losses up to a cap of $700,000, the first half of which shall be payable in Purchaser Shares valued at the greater of: (i) the closing market price and (ii) the volume-weighted average price per share for the fifteen (15) days prior to the indemnification event and the second half of which shall be payable in cash. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, no Owner shall have any indemnification payment obligation for any Indemnifiable Losses under this Article 10 in excess of the aggregate Purchase Price received by such Owner from Purchaser for such Owner's Transferred Shares sold hereunder; and provided, further the Owners aggregate indemnification obligation under Section 10.1 shall be limited to the Escrow Deposit.

10.5. Payment. Upon the determination of the liability under this Article 10, the Indemnifying Party shall pay to the Indemnified Party within 10 Business Days after such determination, the amount of any claim for indemnification made hereunder.

10.6. Non-Impairment of Indemnity.

(a) The results of Purchaser’s due diligence investigation and examination of the Company and the Owners is for Purchaser’s sole benefit, and shall not (i) impair or reduce any representation or warranty made by the Company and/or the Owners in this Agreement, (ii) relieve the Company or the Owners from its or their obligations with respect to such representations and warranties (including, without limitation, the indemnification obligations under this Article), or (iii) mitigate any of the Company’s or the Owners’ obligations to disclose all material facts to Purchaser with respect to the Company and the Business.

(b) The results of Company's and/or Owners due diligence investigation and examination of the Purchaser is for Company's and the Owners' sole benefit, and shall not (i) impair or reduce any representation or warranty made by the Purchaser in this Agreement, (ii) relieve the Purchaser from its obligations with respect to such representations and warranties (including, without limitation, the indemnification obligations under this Article), or (iii) mitigate any of the Purchaser's obligations to disclose all material facts to the Company and Owners with respect to the Purchaser and its business.

10.7. Subrogation. Upon making an indemnity payment pursuant to this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party will, to the extent of such payment, be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party against any third party in respect of the damages to which the payment related. Without limiting the generality of any other provision hereof, each such Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party will duly execute upon request all instruments reasonably necessary to evidence and perfect the above described subrogation rights.

10.8. Exclusive Remedies. The remedies provided for in this Agreement shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of the parties and their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates, agents, representatives, successors and assigns for any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement or any certificate delivered at Closing; provided, however, that nothing herein is intended to waive any claims for fraud or waive any equitable remedies to which a party may be entitled.

10.9. No Double Recovery; Use of Insurance. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no party shall be entitled to indemnification or reimbursement under any provision of this Agreement for any amount to the extent such party or its Affiliate has been indemnified or reimbursed for such amount under any other provision of this Agreement, the Exhibits or Disclosure Schedules attached hereto, or any document executed in connection with this Agreement or otherwise. Furthermore, in the event any Indemnifiable Losses related to a claim by Purchaser are covered by insurance, Purchaser agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to seek recovery under such insurance and Purchaser shall not be entitled to recover from the Owners(and shall refund amounts received up to the amount of indemnification actually received) with respect to such damages to the extent Purchaser recovers the insurance payment specified in the policy.

10.10. Treatment of Indemnity Payments Between the Parties. Unless otherwise required by applicable Requirements of Law, all indemnification payments shall constitute adjustments to the Purchase Price for all Tax purposes, and no party shall take any position inconsistent with such characterization.

10.11. Mitigation. Each party agrees to use reasonable efforts to mitigate any loss, liability or damage which forms the basis of a claim hereunder.

(i) Purchaser, the Company, and the Owners shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Section 12.2 and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.

(iii) Following the Closing, the Company shall not take any action which would be reasonably likely to have an adverse Tax impact upon the Company or the Owners for any period ending prior to the date of Closing unless the Company, after consultation with its Tax advisors, determines that a Tax position of the Company for any period ending prior to the date of Closing was illegal.

(iv) Any adverse Tax consequences upon the Company or the Owners for any period ending prior to the Closing Date as a result of Company converting from cash to accrual reporting of its Taxes shall be the responsibility of Purchaser.

(i) to receive all payments made by the Purchaser to the Owners under this Agreement;

(ii) to agree upon or compromise any matter related to the calculation of any adjustments to the Purchase Price pursuant to Article 3 or otherwise or other payments to be made;

(iii) to act for the Owners with respect to all indemnification matters referred to in this Agreement, including the right to compromise on behalf of the Owners any indemnification claim made by or against the Owners;

(iv) to terminate, amend, or waive any provision of this Agreement; provided that any such action, if material to the rights and obligations of the Owners in the reasonable judgment of the Owner Representative, shall be taken in the same manner with respect to all Owners, unless otherwise agreed by each Owner who is subject to any disparate treatment of a potentially adverse nature;

(v) to employ and obtain the advice of legal counsel, accountants and other professional advisors as the Owner Representative, in his sole discretion, deems necessary or advisable in the performance of his duties as the Owner Representative and to rely on their advice and counsel;

(vi) to incur and pay out of the Purchase Price expenses, including fees of attorneys and accountants incurred pursuant to the transactions contemplated hereby, and any other fees and expenses allocable or in any way relating to such transaction or any indemnification claim, whether incurred prior or subsequent to Closing;

(vii) to retain a portion of the Purchase Price as a reserve against the payment of expenses incurred in his capacity as Owner Representative; and

(viii) to do or refrain from doing any further act or deed on behalf of the Owners which the Owner Representative deems necessary or appropriate in his sole discretion relating to the subject matter of this Agreement as fully and completely as any of the Owners could do if personally present and acting.

(b) The appointment of the Owner Representative shall be deemed coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable, and any other person may conclusively and absolutely rely, without inquiry, upon any actions of the Owner Representative as the acts of the Owners in all matters referred to in this Agreement. Each of the Owners hereby ratifies and confirms all that the Owner Representative shall do or cause to be done by virtue of such Owner Representative’s appointment as Owner Representative of such Owner. The Owner Representative shall act for the Owners on all of the matters set forth in this Agreement in the manner the Owner Representative believes to be in the best interest of the Owners, but the Owner Representative shall not be responsible to any Owners for any loss or damage any Owners may suffer by reason of the performance by the Owner Representative of such Owner Representative’s duties under this Agreement, other than loss or damage arising from willful misconduct in the performance of such Owner Representative’s duties under this Agreement.

(c) Each of the Owners hereby expressly acknowledges and agrees that the Owner Representative is authorized to act on behalf of such Owner notwithstanding any dispute or disagreement among the Owners, and that any person shall be entitled to rely on any and all action taken by the Owner Representative under this Agreement without liability to, or obligation to inquire of, any of the Owners. If the Owner Representative resigns or ceases to function in such capacity for any reason whatsoever, then the successor Owner Representative shall be the person which the Owners which held a majority of the Transferred Shares at Closing appoint; provided, however, that if for any reason no successor has been appointed within thirty (30) days, then any Owner shall have the right to petition a court of competent jurisdiction for appointment of a successor Owner Representative. The Owners do hereby jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold the Owner Representative harmless from and against any and all liability, loss, cost, damage or expense (including without limitation attorneys’ fees) reasonably incurred or suffered as a result of the performance of such Owner Representative’s duties under this Agreement except for any such liability arising out of the willful misconduct of the Owner Representative.

14.13. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT SUCH PARTY MAY LEGALLY AND EFFECTIVELY DO SO, TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.

This Agreement shall be governed and construed as to its validity, interpretation and effect by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia notwithstanding the choice of law rules of Virginia or any other jurisdiction. In addition, in the case of any dispute under or in connection with this Agreement, each of the parties hereby consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the courts of the Commonwealth of Virginia or the Federal District Courts for such state, provided that such Federal court has subject matter jurisdiction over such dispute, and each of the parties hereby waives any claim such party may have at any time as to forum non conveniens with respect to such venue. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the preceding sentence, any of the parties hereto shall have the right to institute any legal action against the other party arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any appropriate court and in any jurisdiction where Company and/or the Owners are subject to personal jurisdiction and where venue is proper.
