(B) there exists a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party that cannot be waived, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party in each jurisdiction for which the Indemnified Party determines counsel is required. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend such Third-Party Claim, fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of his or its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, or fails to diligently prosecute the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may, subject to Section 7.05(b), pay, compromise, defend such Third-Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third- Party Claim. Seller and Buyer shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third-Party Claim, including making available (subject to the provisions of Section 5.01) records relating to such Third-Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third-Party Claim.

(ii) through the exercise by Buyer of its offset rights pursuant to Section 7.13, below; and

(iii) to the extent the amount of Losses exceeds the amounts available to the Buyer Indemnitee in the Escrow Amount and through the exercise by Buyer of its offset rights pursuant to Section 7.13, below, from the Seller Parties.

Section 7.07 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

Section 7.08 Effect of Investigation. The representations, warranties and covenants of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification with respect thereto, shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party (including by any of their or its Representatives) or by reason of the fact that the Indemnified Party or any of his or its Representatives knew or should have known that any such representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate.

Section 7.09 Exclusive Remedies. Subject to Section 5.02(e) and Section 8.11, the parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than claims arising from Fraud, criminal activity or willful misconduct on the part of a party hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated

72

by this Agreement) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in ARTICLE VI and this ARTICLE VII. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, remedies, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement he or it may have against the other parties hereto and their Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in ARTICLE VI and this ARTICLE VII. Nothing in this Section 7.09 shall limit any Person’s right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Person shall be entitled or to seek any remedy on account of any party’s Fraudulent, criminal or willful misconduct.

Section 7.10 Exclusion of Special Damages. Any “Loss” indemnifiable hereunder shall exclude special damages (including lost or anticipated profits and diminution in value), punitive damages, incidental damages and consequential damages (other than reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with enforcing the terms of this Agreement); provided that an indemnified party shall be entitled to recover such types of damages in instances (a) involving claims resulting from Fraud, criminal activity or willful misconduct of an Indemnifying Party, or (b) where such damages have been awarded to a Third Party in an Action pursuant to which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder.

Section 7.11 Mitigation. Each Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any claim or Loss that such Indemnified Party asserts or is reasonably likely to assert a claim for indemnification under this ARTICLE VII.

Section 7.12 No Double Recovery. No Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover from any Indemnifying Party under this ARTICLE VII or under any other Ancillary Document, more than once in respect of the same Loss to the extent recovered (notwithstanding that such Loss may result from breaches of multiple provisions of this Agreement and/or other Ancillary Documents). For sake of clarity, no Loss may be claimed under this ARTICLE VII by any Indemnified Party to the extent such amounts are otherwise taken into account in calculating the Purchase Price in accordance with ARTICLE II of this Agreement.

Section 7.13 Offset Rights. In addition to a release of a portion of the Escrow Amount pursuant to the Escrow Agreement and subject to the limitations set forth in this ARTICLE VII, Buyer, as the Indemnified Party, shall be entitled to offset, deduct and retain the portion of the principal and interest payments most remotely due under the Promissory Note and/or the portion of any Earn-Out Payment owed to Seller in satisfaction of any Loss indemnifiable hereunder, provided either (a) Seller has agreed in writing that Buyer’s indemnification claim is valid, or (b) a court of competent jurisdiction has issued a final, non-appealable judgment, order, award or determination that Buyer is entitled to indemnification with respect to such Loss. Any offset against the

73

outstanding principal balance and accrued interest owed under the Promissory Note shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price by the parties for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, in the event Buyer is required under applicable Law to recognize cancellation of debt income related to any offset against the principal balance of the Promissory Note, the Seller Parties shall pay to Buyer an additional payment in an amount required to fully reimburse Buyer with respect to all federal, state and local taxes with respect to the forgiveness of the portion of the Promissory Note subject to the offset, and any such payment shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price by the parties for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

ANNEX A

Earn-Outs

This Annex A sets forth the agreement and understanding of the parties with respect to additional contingent purchase price payments as part of the total Purchase Price to be paid to Seller, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and this Annex A. The terms and conditions of the Agreement are incorporated into this Annex A in all respects.

1 For the avoidance of doubt, this limitation related to compensation and benefit costs applicable to the CEO and/or the President of the Company applies only with respect to the computation of Company EBITDA (for purposes of computing any Earn-Out Payments) and is not intended to limit actual compensation or benefits paid or provided to the CEO or the President.

Page 1 of 4

order that would have generated $10,000.00 of Organic EBITDA, then Organic EBITDA for the applicable Earn-Out period shall be increased by $10,000.00 to account for the lost Organic EBITDA. Also, for avoidance of doubt, if after Closing the Company acquires another entity (“TargetCo”), which has at the time of the closing of that transaction, $3.0 Million of EBITDA, then going forward, on a consolidated basis, the $3.0 Million of acquired EBITDA will be removed from the calculation of Organic EBITDA for the purposes of the Earn-Outs so that only incremental EBITDA as a result of the Acquisition will be included in the calculation of Organic EBITDA. For example, one year after the acquisition of TargetCo, if TargetCo EBITDA is calculated as $3.5 Million, then only the incremental $500,000.00 will count towards the computation of Organic EBITDA.

Page 2 of 4

Buyer shall deliver to Seller a statement setting forth in reasonable detail a calculation of the Company’s Organic EBITDA, together with reasonable supporting documentation therefor, for the applicable periods set forth in Section 2 (the “Statement”). The Statement shall become final and binding upon the parties on the fifteenth (15th) Business Day following delivery thereof to Seller and shall be used in computing the amount of the Earn-Out Payments, unless Seller delivers written notice of its disagreement with the Statement (“Notice of Earn-Out Disagreement”) to Buyer within fifteen (15) Business Days of the date of Seller’s receipt of the Statement, which Notice of Earn-Out Disagreement shall specify in reasonable detail Seller’s specific objections (including specific amounts, to the extent known) to the Statement together with reasonable supporting documentation therefor, including alternative calculations, schedules and spreadsheets.

Page 3 of 4

faith with the sole and express intention of reducing the value of the Earn-Out Payments. Seller Parties further acknowledge and agree that the amount of the Earn-Out Payments is contingent on the performance of the business of the Company and there is no guaranteed minimum Earn-Out Payment under the Agreement or this Annex A. Seller and Seller Individual hereby agree that Buyer does not make any representation and expresses no opinion as to the value of the potential Earn- Out Payments, if any, and all warranties (whether written or oral, express or implied) with respect to or relating to the Earn-Out Payments are expressly excluded. Notwithstanding the other terms of this Annex A or the Agreement, nothing contained in this Annex A or the Agreement shall be deemed to preclude Seller Parties from (i) enforcing the terms of this Section 3(d) and/or (ii) submitting a Notice of Earn-Out Disagreement based on a breach by Buyer of this Section 3(d).

SCHEDULE A

U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION

Investment Authorization Form

U.S. BANK MONEY MARKET DEPOSIT ACCOUNT

Description and Terms

The U.S. Bank Money Market Deposit Account is a U.S. Bank National Association (“U.S. Bank”) interest-bearing money market deposit account designed to meet the needs of U.S. Bank’s Corporate Trust Services Escrow Group and other corporate trust customers of U.S. Bank. Selection of this investment includes authorization to place funds on deposit and invest with U.S. Bank.

U.S. Bank uses the daily balance method to calculate interest on this account (actual/365 or 366). This method applies a daily periodic rate to the principal balance in the account each day. Interest is accrued daily and credited monthly to the account. Interest rates are determined at U.S. Bank’s discretion and may be tiered by customer deposit amount.

The owner of the account is U.S. Bank as agent for its corporate trust customers. U.S. Bank’s Corporate Trust Services Escrow Group performs all account deposits and withdrawals. Deposit accounts are FDIC insured per depositor, as determined under FDIC Regulations, up to applicable FDIC limits.

U.S. BANK IS NOT REQUIRED TO REGISTER AS A MUNICIPAL ADVISOR WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION FOR PURPOSES OF COMPLYING WITH THE DODD-FRANK WALL STREET REFORM & CONSUMER PROTECTION ACT. INVESTMENT ADVICE, IF NEEDED, SHOULD BE OBTAINED FROM YOUR FINANCIAL ADVISOR.

Automatic Authorization

In the absence of specific written direction to the contrary to the extent and as authorized in the applicable escrow agreement, U.S. Bank is hereby directed to invest and reinvest proceeds and other available moneys in the U.S. Bank Money Market Deposit Account. The customer(s) confirm that the U.S. Bank Money Market Deposit Account is a permitted investment under the operative documents and this authorization is the permanent direction for investment of the moneys until notified in writing of permissible alternate instructions.

SCHEDULE B

Schedule of Fees for Services as Escrow Agent

One-time fee for the routine duties of the Escrow Agent associated with the administration of the account. Administration fees are payable in advance. In the event that the Agreement is not terminated within two years, then an additional administrative fee of

$1,000 shall be due for each year or part thereof. This assumes that the Escrow Agent will be directed to invest in an automated sweep vehicle available through the Escrow Agent’s trust accounting system.

Reimbursement of expenses associated with the performance of Escrow Agent’s duties, including but not limited to fees and expenses of legal counsel, accountants and other agents, tax preparation, reporting and filing, publications, and filing fees.

Extraordinary Administration Services ("EAS") are duties, responsibilities or activities not expected to be provided by the escrow agent at the outset of the transaction, not routine or customary, and/or not incurred in the ordinary course of business, and may require analysis or interpretation. Billing for fees and expenses related to EAS is appropriate in instances where particular inquiries, events or developments are unexpected, even if the possibility of such circumstances could have been identified at the inception of the transaction, or as changes in law, procedures, or the cost of doing business demand. At our option, EAS may be charged on an hourly (time expended multiplied by current hourly rate), flat or special fee basis at such rates or in such amounts in effect at the time of such services, which may be modified by us in our sole and reasonable discretion from time to time. In addition, all fees and expenses incurred by the escrow agent, in connection with the escrow agent's EAS and ordinary administration services and including without limitation the fees and expenses of legal counsel, financial advisors and other professionals, charges for wire transfers, checks, internal transfers and securities transactions, travel expenses, communication costs, postage (including express mail and overnight delivery charges), copying charges and the like will be payable, at cost, to the escrow agent. EAS fees are due and payable in addition to annual or ordinary administration fees. Failure to pay for EAS owed to U.S. Bank when due may result in interest being charged on amounts owed to U.S. Bank for extraordinary administration services fees and expenses at the prevailing market rate.
