8.6 Steel Partners Matters.

(a) Following the execution and delivery of this Agreement and until one (1) Business Day prior to Closing (and in any event prior to the notice required to be delivered by Steel Partners pursuant to Section 8.6(b)), Steel Partners may purchase, or cause its Affiliates to purchase, up to 27,500 shares of Acquirer Common Stock available for sale in the open market and such shares of Acquirer Common Stock so purchased by Steel Partners or its Affiliates shall not reduce or otherwise affect the Stock Consideration in any manner. Following the execution and delivery of this Agreement and until one (1) Business Day prior to Closing (and in any event prior to the notice required to be delivered by Steel Partners pursuant to Section 8.6(b)), Steel Partners may also purchase, or cause its Affiliates to purchase, up to an additional 172,500 shares of Acquirer Common Stock available for sale in the open market, and any such additional shares of Acquirer Common Stock so purchased by Steel Partners between the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Closing Date shall reduce the Stock Consideration on a one-for-one basis. Steel Partners shall, or cause its Affiliates to, make such open market purchases in compliance with all applicable Laws. Subject to such open market purchases being made in compliance with all applicable Laws, Acquirer (i) consents to such open market purchases and (ii) agrees to take all necessary actions to amend or otherwise modify its Tax Benefits Preservation Plan to enable Steel Partners to make such open market purchases; provided, that Steel Partners shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, make any purchases of shares of Acquirer Common Stock that would cause a “change of ownership” of Acquirer under Section 382 of the Code. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event Steel Partners and its Affiliates purchase less than 200,000 shares of Acquirer Common Stock in the open market in accordance with this Section 8.6(a), Steel Partners shall notify Acquirer, in accordance with Section 8.6(b), the number of such shares of Acquirer Common Stock purchased that (A) shall reduce the Stock Consideration on a one-for-one basis (up to 172,500 shares) and (B) shall not reduce or otherwise affect the Stock Consideration in any manner (up to 27,500 shares).

(b) Acquirer agrees to notify Steel Partners, at least three (3) Business Days prior to Closing, of the number of authorized, issued and outstanding capital stock of Acquirer as of the most recently practicable date, and Steel Partners agrees to notify Acquirer, at least one (1) Business Day prior to Closing, (i) the number of shares of Acquirer Common that Steel Partners and its Affiliates purchased in the open market as contemplated by Section 8.6(a), (ii) in the event Steel Partners and its Affiliates have purchased less than 200,000 shares of Acquirer Common Stock in the open market as contemplated by Section 8.6(a), the number of such shares of Acquirer Common Stock purchased that (A) shall reduce the Stock Consideration on a one-for-one basis (up to 172,500 shares) and (B) shall not reduce or otherwise affect the Stock Consideration in any manner (up to 27,500 shares), and (iii) of the number of shares of Acquirer Common Stock, if any, that is required so that Steel Partners and its Affiliates will have “control” (within the meaning Section 304(c) of the Code) of Acquirer, along with a schedule detailing the calculation thereof, which amount shall be reasonably satisfactory to Acquirer.

-47-

(c) Acquirer hereby grants to Steel Partners an irrevocable option (the “Top-Up Option”), exercisable only on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 8.6(c), to purchase from Acquirer up to the number of newly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Acquirer Common Stock (the “Top-Up Shares”) equal to that number of shares of Acquirer Common Stock that, when added to the number of shares of Acquirer Common Stock owned by Steel Partners and its Affiliates at the time of the exercise of the Top-Up Option, plus the Stock Consideration and any open market purchases of shares of Acquirer Common Stock made pursuant to Section 8.6(a), is required so that Steel Partners and its Affiliates will have “control” (within the meaning Section 304(c) of the Code) of Acquirer, provided, however, in no event shall the number of Top-Up Shares to be issued exceed the number of shares of Acquirer common stock that can be safely issued without causing a “change of ownership” of Acquirer under Section 382 of the Code, as determined in the sole discretion of Acquirer. The Top-Up Option may be exercised by Steel Partners, in whole or in part, on or immediately prior to the Closing Date; provided, however, that the Top-Up Option shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 10.1 or (ii) the end of the Closing Date; provided, further, that the obligation of Acquirer to deliver the Top-Up Shares upon the exercise of the Top-Up Option is subject to the condition that no provision of any applicable Law shall prohibit the exercise of the Top-Up Option or the delivery of the Top-Up Shares in respect of such exercise. The purchase price payable for the Top-Up Shares by Steel Partners pursuant to the Top-Up Option shall be $30.00 per Top-Up Share, payable in cash (the “Top-Up Consideration”). In the event Steel Partners wishes to exercise the Top-Up Option, Steel Partners shall deliver to Acquirer a notice setting forth (i) the number of shares of Acquirer Common Stock that Steel Partners needs to purchase pursuant to the Top-Up Option, along with a schedule detailing the calculation thereof, which amount shall be reasonably satisfactory to Acquirer and (ii) the place and time at which the closing of the purchase of such shares of Acquirer Common Stock by Steel Partners is to take place (the “Top-Up Closing”). At the Top-Up Closing, Steel Partners shall cause to be delivered to Acquirer the Top-Up Consideration and Acquirer shall cause to be issued to Steel Partners or its Affiliates (as the case may be) book-entry shares (or a certificate, if requested) representing the Top-Up Shares, in compliance with applicable Law.

8.7 Tax Treatment.

(a) During the period from the date of this Agreement to the Closing Date, Transferor, Acquirer and the Company shall (A) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to constitute a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code and (B) neither take any action nor fail to take any action if such action or such failure could reasonably be expected to prevent or impede the transactions contemplated by this Agreement from qualifying as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code; and

(b) Provided the requirements of Section 368(a) of the Code have been satisfied, Transferor, Acquirer and the Company agree to report the transactions contemplated by this Agreement on all Tax Returns or other communications with any Taxing Authority as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code.

ARTICLE X TERMINATION, AMENDMENT AND WAIVER

10.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing, whether before or after receipt of the Transferor Stockholder Approval:

(a) by mutual written consent of Acquirer and Transferor;

(b) by either Acquirer or Transferor, upon written notice to the other party:

(i) if the Transfer shall not have been consummated on or before June 30, 2012 (the “Outside Date”); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 10.1(b)(i) shall not be available to any party whose failure to fulfill any material obligation under this Agreement has been a proximate cause of the failure of the Transfer to be consummated on or before the Outside Date;

(ii) if any Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction shall have issued an order, decree or ruling or taken any other action permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the Transfer, and such order, decree, ruling or action shall have become final and nonappealable, provided, that the party seeking to terminate this Agreement shall have used its commercially reasonable efforts to have such order, decree, ruling or action lifted if and to the extent required by this Agreement;

(iii) if the Transferor Stockholder Approval shall not have been obtained upon a vote taken thereon at the Transferor Stockholders’ Meeting duly convened therefor or at any adjournment or postponement thereof;

(c) by Acquirer (if Acquirer is not in material breach of its obligations under this Agreement), upon written notice to Transferor, if the Company or Transferor shall have breached or failed to perform any of their respective representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (i) would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Sections 9.2(a) or 9.2(b) and (ii) is incapable of being cured by the Company or Transferor by the Outside Date; or

(d) by Transferor (if the Company and Transferor are not in material breach of their obligations under this Agreement), upon written notice to Acquirer, if Acquirer shall have breached or failed to perform any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (i) would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 9.3(a) or 9.3(b) and (ii) is incapable of being cured by Acquirer by the Outside Date.

-51-

ARTICLE XI TAX MATTERS

11.1 Consolidated, Combined, Unitary or Similar Tax Returns for Pre-Closing Tax Periods. Transferor shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, and file, or cause to be filed, (a) its consolidated United States federal income Tax Return for any Pre-Closing Tax Period that is to be filed after the Closing Date, and (b) any consolidated, combined, unitary or similar state or local Tax Return that is based on, or measured by, income that includes a Pre-Closing Tax Period, that includes the Company and/or the Subsidiary and Transferor, and that is to be filed after the Closing Date.

11.2 Tax Periods Beginning Before and Ending After the Closing Date. In the case of any Tax Returns not covered by Section 11.1 and which are for Tax periods beginning before the Closing Date and ending after the Closing Date (a “Straddle Tax Period”), Transferor shall accrue and include in the calculation of Net Working Capital an amount equal to the estimated amount of Taxes attributable to the portion of such Straddle Tax Period ending on the Closing Date, such accrual for state Taxes to be computed in a manner consistent with the accrual for state Taxes contained in the 2011 audited financial statements of the Company and Subsidiary.

11.3 Amendment of Tax Returns. Any amended separate state and local Tax Return of the Company or the Subsidiary or claim for Tax refund on behalf of the Company or the Subsidiary for any period with respect to Taxes reported on such Tax Returns shall be filed, or caused to be filed, only by Acquirer. No amended U.S. federal consolidated Tax Return of the Company or the Subsidiary, and no amended consolidated, combined, unitary or affiliated state or local Tax Return of the Company or the Subsidiary, shall be filed (unless such amended consolidated, combined, unitary or affiliated state or local Tax Return includes only the Company and the Subsidiary).

11.4 Certain Taxes. All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, “Transfer Taxes”) will be split equally between Acquirer and Transferor when due, and all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to Transfer Taxes will be prepared and filed by the party required to file such Tax Returns under applicable Law.
