parties hereto will adhere to such allocation for all purposes,
including without limitation federal and state income tax purposes.

Liabilities . PRI assumes
no debts or trade payables of the Division existing as of, and

PHMD . PHMD is a
corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of Delaware. PHMD has full corporate power and
authority to conduct the Division’s business as it is
presently being conducted by the Division. PHMD does not do
business in any jurisdiction where the failure to be qualified to

understood that PRI must secure its own permits, licenses,
qualifications and the like to conduct the business of the
Division.
5.2 Authorization . PHMD has all requisite corporate power and
authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and any ancillary
agreements, and all other instruments and certificates to be
delivered at the Closing, and to consummate the transactions
contemplated by such agreements and to perform its respective
obligations under such agreements. The execution and delivery of
this Agreement and any ancillary agreements by PHMD and the other
agreements, instruments and certificates to be delivered at the
Closing, and the consummation by PHMD of the transactions
contemplated by such agreements have been duly approved by the
Board of Directors of PHMD. No other actions on the part of PHMD
are necessary to authorize this Agreement, any ancillary agreements
or the other agreements, instruments and certificates to be
delivered by PHMD under this Agreement or the ancillary agreements,
or the transactions contemplated by such agreements. This Agreement
and the other agreements, instruments, certificates and documents
to be delivered by PHMD, including any ancillary agreement, have
been (or, if to be executed or delivered after the date of this
Agreement, will be) duly executed and delivered by PHMD, and are
(or, when executed, will be) legal, valid and binding obligations
of PHMD, enforceable against PHMD in accordance with their terms,
except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, and other similar laws affecting
creditors’ rights generally and by equitable
principles.
5.3 Financial Statements.
(a) The
financial statements of the Division for the period ended December
31, 2007 that are to be provided by PHMD to PRI and which are to be
delivered after Closing (the “ Financial
Statements ”) (i) will have been prepared, based on
management reports, substantially in accordance with GAAP that was
consistently applied as of the date or for the period covered
thereby, but without accompanying footnotes, and (ii) will fairly
and adequately represent the assets, liabilities, and the financial
position and financial results (P&L) of the Division as of the
date, or for the period, set forth on the Financial Statements. PRI
further requires that it receive the Financial Statements in full
accordance with GAAP and that the Financial Statements should be
audited by an independent auditing firm and further requires
unaudited quarterly statements of the Division for 2007, and for
such quarters in 2008 (e.g. first and second quarters) and for the
period from July 1, 2008 through the Closing Date, but excluding
the sale transaction contemplated herein as may be required by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, all to be compiled and
reviewed, in order to fulfill SEC reporting obligations, then at
PRI’s request and on PRI’s behalf, PHMD shall engage
its independent auditors to perform such audit, compilation and
review, and the expense of such work shall be borne by the parties
as follows: the first $10,000 by PHMD, then the next $27,000 by
PRI, and any additional costs by PHMD. PHMD shall provide to PRI
the unaudited results of operations of the Division as of the
Closing Date, but excluding the sale transaction contemplated
herein. (b) PHMD represents to PRI that the accounting reports
(i.e. profit and loss statement and balance sheet) which PHMD
provided to PRI for the Division as of, and for the periods ended,
December 31, 2007 and May 31, 2008, are management reports that
PHMD generated for managing the business of the Division under the
rules of segment reporting. PHMD further represents that, except as
set forth in Schedule 5.3 , such reports
were materially accurate for purposes of management reporting and,
with adjustments disclosed and discussed with PRI and set forth in
Schedule 5.3 , were materially accurate for
use in segment reporting in PHMD’s financial
statements.
5.4 Scope of Rights in Acquired Assets.
The rights, properties, and assets
included in the Acquired Assets include substantially all of the
rights, properties, and assets, of every kind, nature and
description, wherever located that are presently used and have been
generally used by PHMD in connection with the Division’s
business or that PHMD believes are necessary to own, use or operate
the Division as the same is presently conducted.
5.5 Ownership and Condition of Acquired Assets
. PHMD has, and at the Closing will have, good and
marketable ownership or title (or in the case of leased personal
property, a good and valid leasehold interest) to all of the
Acquired Assets, including its intellectual property rights in and
to the use of the common law trademark “SIS™” and
of “PhotoMedex® Surgical Services™”, and all
the properties and assets reflected in the Financial Statements,
subject to no liens, claims, security interests or encumbrance
except for permitted liens, claims, security interests or
encumbrances. PHMD owns exclusively, or validly leases or licenses,
all Acquired Assets (including at least non-exclusive rights to all
material intellectual property, tradenames, trademarks and service
marks used in the Division) and all names and images that are or
have been used in connection with the Division’s business.
PHMD shall convey to PRI at Closing good and marketable title to
the Acquired Assets, except as otherwise specified. The Acquired
Assets include all the assets, properties and rights used by PHMD
to operate the Division’s business as currently conducted.
Substantially all of the lasers, lithotripters and vehicles
included in the Acquired Assets are in working condition and
reasonable repair. All of the lasers encompassed within the
Acquired Assets have been maintained in accordance with the
Division’s standard maintenance schedules. As to all other
Acquired Assets, PHMD is selling same “as is, where
is”.
5.6 Real Property Leases . PHMD is not conveying any real property to PRI.
Schedule 5.6 contains a complete and
correct list of all written leases and subleases pursuant to which
PHMD leases real property to or from any person (the “
Real Property Leases ”) and from which the
Division conducts its business. With respect to each Real Property
Lease, PHMD represents to its knowledge that there are no liens or
encumbrances in the leasehold interest that PHMD has by virtue of
the Real Property Leases, except insofar as PHMD’s leasehold
interest may have been subordinated to the interests of mortgagees
on the real property in question. PHMD enjoys, without material
exceptions, peaceful and undisturbed possession of all the leased
real property covered by the Real Property Leases. To the knowledge
of PHMD, no portion of the security deposit under any Real Property
Lease has been applied that has not been re-deposited in full.
Except as set forth in Schedule 5.6 , PHMD
has not received notice (and has no knowledge) of any special
assessment proceedings affecting the leased real property that have
not been resolved. There is no pending or, to the knowledge of
PHMD, threatened condemnation affecting any real property that is
leased or used by the Division. Except as set forth in
Schedule 5.6, PHMD has not caused any work
or improvements to be performed upon or made to any of the leased
real property for which there remains outstanding any material
payment obligation that could result in the imposition of any
material encumbrance on the leased real property. To the knowledge
of PHMD, the current use and occupancy by PHMD of the real property
and operation of the Division’s business at the locations of
the real property does not violate in any material respect any
applicable law, rule or regulation. PHMD has not received any
notice (and has no knowledge) of violation of any easement,
covenant, condition, restriction or similar provision in any
instrument of record or other unrecorded agreement affecting the
real property occupied or used by the Division.
