Seller shall have a period of thirty (30) days from receipt of the Closing Date Balance Sheet to review such balance sheet and Purchaser’s calculation of Actual Net Working Capital. In connection therewith, Purchaser shall provide Seller and its representatives with access to all records and work papers necessary to compute and verify the Closing Date Balance Sheet and Actual Net Working Capital.

(ii) Within thirty (30) days following receipt by Seller of the Closing Date Balance Sheet, Seller shall deliver written notice (a “Notice of Disagreement”) to the Purchaser of any dispute Seller has with respect to the preparation or content of such Closing Date Balance Sheet. The Notice of Disagreement must describe in reasonable detail the items contained in the Closing Date Balance Sheet that Seller disputes and the basis for any such dispute. If Seller does not notify the Purchaser in writing of a dispute with respect to the Closing Date Balance Sheet within such thirty (30)-day period, and the calculation of Actual Net Working Capital reflected in the Closing Date Balance Sheet will be final, conclusive and binding on Seller, Shareholders and the Purchaser. If a Notice of Disagreement is delivered to the Purchaser, the Purchaser and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to resolve the disputed items contained therein. If the Purchaser and Seller, notwithstanding such good faith effort, fail to resolve such disputed items within fifteen (15) days after delivery of the Notice of Disagreement to the Purchaser, then the Purchaser and Seller jointly shall engage any nationally recognized independent public accounting firm or if no national accounting firm will accept the engagement, or the parties cannot agree on an national accounting firm or a national accounting firm is not retained for any reason within sixty (60) days following the Seller delivering a Notice of Disagreement, the parties shall use an arbitrator (who shall be a CPA with at least ten (10) years of auditing experience, or if such an arbitrator is not available or acceptable to the parties, a reasonably experienced CPA who is acceptable to both parties or nominated by the American Arbitration Association) pursuant to the rules of the American Arbitration Association (the “Arbitration Firm”), to resolve such disputed items in accordance with the standards set forth in this clause (d). Both the location of the Arbitration Firm and the conduct of the arbitration shall be in New York, New York. The Seller and the Purchaser shall cooperate in the engagement of the Arbitration Firm and shall use reasonable efforts to cause the Arbitration Firm to render a written decision resolving the matters submitted to the Arbitration Firm as promptly as practicable. The scope of the disputes to be resolved by the Arbitration Firm will be limited to the items in dispute that were properly included in the Notice of Disagreement. The Arbitration Firm’s decision will be based solely on written submissions by Seller and its representatives and written submissions by the Purchaser and its representatives and not by independent review other than to the extent to resolve disputed items. The Arbitration Firm may not assign a value greater than the greatest value for any such item claimed by either the Purchaser, on the one hand, or Seller, on the other hand, or smaller than the value assigned to the disputed item by the Purchaser on the one hand or Seller on the other hand in the Closing Date Balance Sheet. All determinations made by the Arbitration Firm will be final, conclusive and binding on the Purchaser, Seller, Shareholders, and Seller and judgment may be entered upon the determination of the Arbitration Firm in any court having jurisdiction over the party against which such determination is to be enforced. The fees and expenses of the Arbitration Firm shall be shared equally between the Purchaser and Shareholders.

(iii) For purposes of complying with the terms set forth in this Section 2.6(d), the Purchaser shall cooperate with and make available to Seller and its representatives all information, records, data and working papers, as may be reasonably required in connection with the analysis of the Closing Date Balance Sheet and Actual Net Working Capital and the resolution of any disputes thereunder.

(iv) After giving effect to this Section 2.6(d), the Estimated Cash Purchase Price and the estimated cash purchase price under the Related Purchase Agreement,

treated on a combined basis, shall be either increased by the amount by which Actual Net Working Capital exceeded the Threshold Net Working Capital or decreased by the amount by which Threshold Net Working Capital exceeds Actual Net Working Capital provided that the Estimated Cash Purchase Price and the estimated cash purchase price under the Related Purchase Agreement, treated on a combined basis, shall not be increased by any adjustments under this Section 2.6(d) and the corresponding provisions in the Related Purchase Agreement by more than an aggregate of $500,000 under both agreements. Any payment obligations resulting from the operation of the foregoing adjustments in favor of or owed by Seller and Color Edge Visual as the sellers under the Related Purchase Agreement shall be allocated among Seller and Color Edge Visual, and shall be paid by Purchaser and Related Purchaser, in accordance with Section 2.11.

(v) The amount of any adjustment required under this Section 2.6(d) shall be made, within (A) five (5) business days after Seller and Color Edge Visual notified the Purchaser that it does not object to the Actual Working Capital or the end of the thirty (30) day review period if no dispute notice has been given by Seller or (B) within five (5) business days following the final determination of any disputed items pursuant to Section 2.6(d)(ii); provided, however, in all events notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the extent any amount is undisputed, such undisputed portion shall be paid by the party that owes the payment within five (5) business days after the determination of the adjustment is made. Any payments due from Seller shall be first paid out of the first released amount from the Holdback Amount, with any excess being paid from the other funds in the Holdback Amount with any excess paid directly by Seller and/or Shareholders.

(e) If actual Adjusted EBITDA, calculated based on the audited November 30, 2004 financial statements of Seller and Color Edge Visual, taken together, to be delivered prior to Closing, is greater than $8,700,000 but less than $9,200,000, the Estimated Cash Purchase Price and the estimated cash purchase price under the Related Purchase Agreement, treated on a combined basis, at Closing shall be reduced by an amount equal to the product of (i) 3.5 multiplied by (ii) the difference between $9,200,000 and actual Adjusted EBITDA. Any payment obligations resulting from the operation of the foregoing adjustments owed by Seller and Color Edge Visual as the sellers under the Related Purchase Agreement shall be allocated among Seller and Color Edge Visual in accordance with Section 2.11.

(f) The “Purchase Price” shall equal the Estimated Cash Purchase Price as adjusted pursuant to this Section 2.6, the Assumed Liabilities, the Contingent Payments under Section 2.7 and the A/R Payments paid to Seller.

2.7 Contingent Payments

(a) During the period commencing on January 1, 2005 through December 31, 2007 (the “Earnout Period”), Purchaser and Related Purchaser shall pay the Contingent Payments to Seller and Color Edge Visual for each fiscal year during the Earnout Period, based on the audited financial statements for the fiscal years in the Earnout Period.

4.10 Employee Benefits.

(a) Schedule 4.10 sets forth a complete and accurate list (including a summary) of all pension, profit-sharing, deferred compensation, bonus, incentive compensation, stock option, share appreciation right, phantom stock, severance, health, dental, vision, life insurance, survivor benefit, vacation and other employee benefit plans and programs (including, but not limited to, all employee benefit plans as defined in ERISA Section 3(3)), which are currently in effect for Seller, which are intended to provide benefits to current or former employees, directors, officers or independent contractors and/or their beneficiaries or for which Seller has any Liability. All of these types of arrangements shall be collectively referred to as “Benefit Plans” or “Plans.” An arrangement will not fail to be a Benefit Plan simply because it only covers one individual, or because Seller’s obligations under the plan arise by reason of its being a “successor employer” under Applicable Law. Furthermore, a voluntary employees’ beneficiary association under Section 501(c)(9) of the Code will be considered a Benefit Plan for this purpose. None of the benefit plans listed on Schedule 4.10 (individually referred to as a “Benefit Plan” or “Plan”) or any trusts created thereunder, nor any trustee or administrator or fiduciary thereof, has engaged in a “prohibited transaction,” as described in Section 4975 of the Code or Section 406 of ERISA, which would subject the Plan, any such trust or any trustee or administrator or fiduciary thereof, Seller, or any party dealing with the Plan or any trust to the tax or penalty on prohibited transactions imposed by Section 4975 of the Code or Section 502(i) of ERISA. None of such Plans nor any trusts thereunder has been terminated, nor have there been any “reportable events” with respect thereto, as that term is defined in Section 4043 of ERISA. Each Plan and trust and all provisions thereof are in compliance with ERISA and with the requirements imposed for the “qualification” of the Plan under Section 401(a) of the Code, where applicable. Seller and any administrator of each Plan have complied with all reporting and disclosure requirements of ERISA, the Code and other Applicable Law with respect to the Plan.

(b) Seller has delivered to Purchaser a true and complete copy of the following documents, to the extent that they are applicable, with respect to each Benefit Plan:

(i) the plan document, any related funding agreements (e.g. trust agreements or insurance contracts) and any custodial service agreements, including all amendments;

(ii) the current summary plan description and all subsequent summaries of material modifications;

(iii) The most recent Internal Revenue Service determination letter for each Benefit Plan that is intended to qualify for favorable income tax treatment under Code Section 401(a) or 501(c)(9), which determination letter reflects all amendments that have been made to the Plan (except as set forth in Schedule 4.10);

(iv) The two (2) most recent Form 5500s (including all applicable schedules and the opinions of the independent accountants) that were filed on behalf of the Benefit Plan and the two (2) most recent actuarial reports; and

(v) Any governmental advisory opinions, rulings, compliance statements, closing agreements and similar materials.

(c) Each Benefit Plan at all times has been operated in all material respects in accordance with its terms, and complies currently, and has complied in the past, both in form and in operation, in all material respects with all Applicable Law, including ERISA and the Code. The Internal Revenue Service has issued a favorable determination letter with respect to each Benefit Plan that is intended to qualify under Code Section 401(a) or Section 501(c)(9), and no event has occurred (either before or after the date of the letter) that is likely to result in the revocation of such determination or which requires or could require action under the compliance resolution programs of the Internal Revenue Service to preserve such qualification.

(d) Other than routine claims for benefits under the Benefit Plan and those relating to qualified domestic relations orders, there are no (i) pending or (ii) to the knowledge of Seller or any Shareholder threatened lawsuits, governmental investigations or other claims against or involving any Benefit Plan, or any fiduciary (within the meaning of Section 3(21)(A) of ERISA) or service provider of such Plan, nor is there any reasonable basis for any such lawsuit, investigation or claim.

(e) All material costs of administering and all contributions required to be made to each Benefit Plan under the terms of that Benefit Plan, ERISA, the Code, or any other Applicable Law have been timely made.

(f) None of Seller or any ERISA Affiliate maintains any plan that provides (or will provide) medical or other welfare benefits to one or more former employees or independent contractors (including retirees), other then benefits that are required to be provided pursuant to COBRA. The Seller and each ERISA Affiliate have at all times complied with the applicable provisions of COBRA.

(g) Seller does not have any intention or commitment, whether legally binding or not, to create any additional plan or program which, once established, would come within the definition of Benefit Plan, or to modify any existing Benefit Plan so as to increase benefits to

participants or the cost of maintaining the Benefit Plan. The benefits under all Benefit Plans are as represented, and have not been, and will not be, increased subsequent to the date documents are provided to Purchaser. No statement, either oral or written, has been made by the Seller (or any agent of the Seller) to any Person regarding any Benefit Plan that is not in accordance with the Plan that could have adverse economic consequences to Purchaser.

(h) None of the Benefit Plans provide any benefits that (i) become payable or become vested solely as a result of the consummation of this transaction or (ii) would result in excess parachute payments (within the meaning of Code Section 280G), either (A) solely as a result of the consummation of this transaction or (B) as a result of the consummation of this transaction and any actions taken by the Purchaser after the Closing Date. Furthermore, the consummation of this transaction will not require the funding (whether on a formal or informal basis) of the benefits under any Benefit Plan (e.g., contributions to a “rabbi trust”).

(i) None of the assets of any Benefit Plan that is a Pension Plan are invested in a group annuity contract or other insurance contract that is subject to any surrender charge, interest rate adjustment, or other similar expense upon its premature termination.

(j) None of the Seller or any ERISA Affiliate maintains or contributes to, or has maintained or contributed to, or has any Liability under, a benefit plan that is subject to Title IV of ERISA or to Code Section 412 or ERISA Section 302. No Benefit Plan is or was at any time a multiemployer plan, as defined in Section 3(37) of ERISA, and neither Seller nor any ERISA Affiliate have ever contributed to or had an obligation to contribute to any multiemployer plan.

(k) No Benefit Plan has any interest in any annuity contract or other investment or insurance contract issued by an insurance company that is the subject of bankruptcy, conservatorship, rehabilitation, or similar proceeding.

(l) Each Benefit Plan that is intended to meet currently applicable requirements for tax-favored treatment under Subchapter B of Chapter 1 of the Code is in compliance with such requirements and, if applicable, with the requirements of Code Sections 419 and 419A, and no “disqualified benefits” (within the meaning of Section 4976(b) of the Code) have been paid that would subject the Seller to a Tax under Code Section 4976.

(m) None of the Benefit Plans have unrelated business taxable income or unrelated debt-financed income under Code Section 511.

(n) The Seller has complied with all reporting and disclosure obligations imposed upon them under all applicable federal and state securities Laws by reason of the operation of the Benefit Plans.

(o) None of the Benefit Plans are part or have at any time been part of a multiple employer welfare arrangement, as that term is defined in ERISA Section 3(40).

applicable statute of limitations plus any extensions for Tax matters.

Seller and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agree, jointly and severally and all other Shareholders agree, severally up to their proportionate percentage equity interest in Seller as of the Closing and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless each Purchaser, and their respective officers, directors, agents, Affiliates, representatives, successors and assigns after the Closing (“Purchaser Indemnitees”) from and against, and shall reimburse each Purchaser Indemnitee on demand for, any and all direct or indirect claims, suits, Actions, proceedings, Liabilities, obligations, judgments, fines, penalties, claims, losses, damages, costs and expenses of any kind (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, accountants and other experts whether incurred in connection with any of the foregoing or in connection with any investigative, administrative or adjudicative proceeding, whether or not such Purchaser Indemnitee shall be designated a party thereto), together with any and all reasonable costs and expenses associated with the investigation of the same and/or the enforcement of the provisions hereof and thereof but in no event consequential damages (collectively, “Losses”), which may be incurred by such Purchaser Indemnitee relating to, based upon, resulting from or arising out of:

(a) the breach of any representation or warranty made by Seller or any Shareholder in this Agreement or in any Related Document (other than the Employment Agreements) as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date;

(b) the breach of any agreement, covenant or obligation of Seller or any Shareholder contained in this Agreement or in any Related Document (other than the Employment Agreements);

(d) any Liability incurred by Seller, any Shareholder or their respective Affiliates to pay any fee or commission to any broker, finder, investment banker or other intermediary in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement other than Bentley Associates; or

(e) any misrepresentation contained in any certificate or other document furnished by or on behalf of Seller or any Shareholder pursuant to this Agreement or in any Related Document (other than the Employment Agreements).

(b) Seller and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall be jointly and severally liable for the full amount of any indemnification claims by Purchaser Indemnitees, and each of the other Shareholders shall be liable for their pro rata (based on ownership of the Seller at the Closing) portion of such claims.

If any Purchaser Indemnitee shall receive notice of any third party claim, suit, arbitration or other legal proceeding giving rise to indemnity under this Agreement, the Purchaser Indemnitee shall give the Seller and Shareholders prompt written notice of the same; provided, however, that failure to provide such written notice shall not release the Seller and Shareholders from any of its obligations under this Article IX, except to the extent (and only to the extent) the Seller and Shareholders are materially prejudiced by such failure. The Seller and Shareholders may, but shall not be obligated to, upon prompt written notice furnished to the Purchaser Indemnitee, assume the defense of any such claim, suit, arbitration or other proceeding, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser Indemnitee, if the Seller and Shareholders acknowledge to the Purchaser Indemnitee in writing their obligations to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnitee with respect to all elements of such claim subject to the limitations of Section 9.3. If the Seller and Shareholders furnish such written acknowledgment and assume the defense of any such claim, the Purchaser Indemnitee shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) the defense of any such Action, with its own counsel and at its own expense. Neither the Seller, the Shareholders nor the Purchaser Indemnitee shall settle or compromise any claim by a third party without the prior written Consent of the other party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser Indemnitee shall be entitled to withhold its written Consent to any settlement or compromise offers that would either impose a restriction or burden operation of the Acquired Business after the date of such settlement or compromise or not release the Purchaser Indemnitee from all liability upon the execution of any such settlement or compromise. If the Seller and Shareholders do not assume the defense of any such claim, suit, arbitration or other proceeding as provided above, (i) the Purchaser Indemnitee may defend against the same, in such manner as it may deem appropriate and at the Seller’s and Shareholders’ reasonable cost and expense, including, without limitation, settling such matter provided that such settlement shall be subject to the Seller’s and Shareholders’ prior written Consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), and (ii) the Seller and Shareholders shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) the defense of such Action, with its own counsel and at their own expense.

9.6 Shareholder Indemnity. Purchaser shall indemnify, after the Closing Date but prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period set forth in Section 9.1, Seller and Shareholder and their respective officers, directors, agents, Affiliates, representatives, successors and permitted assigns after the Closing Date (a “Seller Indemnitee”) for all Losses which may be incurred by Seller Indemnitee relating to, based upon, resulting from or arising out of:

(a) the breach of any representation or warranty made by Purchaser in this Agreement or in any Related Document (other than the Employment Agreements) as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date;

(b) the breach of any agreement, covenant or obligation of Purchaser contained in this Agreement or in any Related Document (other than the Employment Agreements);
