AGREEMENT

        NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, the respective representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, the Parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE 1

         1.1 Purchase and Sale of Stock . On and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, on the Closing Date (as defined in Article 8 ), Buyer will purchase from Sellers, and Sellers will sell to Buyer (or, with respect to the PC Stock, its designee), the Stock and the PC Stock for the consideration specified in Section 1.2 , the amount of which Stock and PC Stock shall be sold by each Seller as set forth in Schedule 1.1 .

         1.2 Purchase Price . Buyer will pay to Sellers an aggregate purchase price (the “ Purchase Price ”) equal to $6,878,000 (subject to reduction as set forth in Section 4.5 ), all of which will be paid at the Closing (as defined in Article 8 ) in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with wire transfer instructions given by Sellers in writing to Buyer at least two (2) business days prior to the Closing Date, which such Purchase Price will be apportioned among Sellers as set forth on Schedule 1.2 . The Parties acknowledge that the Purchase Price and any consideration paid pursuant to Section 1.4 is the consideration for the purchased and sold Stock and PC Stock as well as the non-competition provisions set forth herein.

         1.3 Allocation of Purchase Price . The Purchase Price will be allocated in the manner set forth in Schedule 1.3 to be attached hereto prior to Closing (the “ Purchase Price Allocation ”). Each of the Parties, when reporting the transactions consummated hereunder in their respective tax returns, shall allocate the Purchase Price paid or received, as the case may be, in a manner that is consistent with the Purchase Price Allocation set forth in Schedule 1.3 hereto. Additionally, each of the Parties will comply with, and furnish the information required by Section 1060 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “ Code ”), and any regulations thereunder.

      1.4 Earnout Payment.

 

    (a)        As additional consideration for the Stock, the PC Stock, and the non-competition provisions set forth herein, Buyer will pay to each Seller, based on such Seller’s percentage as set forth on Schedule 1.2 , such Seller’s proportionate share of the Earnout Amounts, if any. Any Earnout Amount will be paid in cash in immediately available funds in accordance with wire transfer instructions given by Sellers in writing to Buyer.



 

    (b)        Within 30 days after the Year One Collection Date (as defined below), Buyer will deliver to Sellers a schedule setting forth in reasonable detail Buyer’s calculation of the Year One Earnout Amount. Such calculation will be subject to Sellers’ review. In reviewing such calculation, Sellers will have the right to communicate with, and to review the work papers, schedules, memoranda, and other documents Buyer or its representatives prepared or reviewed in performing such calculation and thereafter will have access to all relevant books and records, all to the extent Sellers reasonably require to complete their review of such calculation. Within thirty (30) days after their receipt of Buyer’s calculation of the Year One Earnout Amount, Sellers will advise Buyer whether, based on such review, they have any exception to such calculation. Unless Sellers deliver to Buyer within such thirty-day period a letter describing their exceptions to Buyer’s calculation of the Year One Earnout Amount as set forth in the schedule delivered by Buyer to Sellers described in this Section 1.4(b) or a letter describing Buyer’s failure to comply with its obligations under this Section 1.4(b) that has resulted in Sellers’ inability to determine exceptions to the schedule Buyer delivers, Buyer’s calculation of the Year One Earnout Amount for calendar year 2007 will be conclusive and binding on Buyer and Sellers as the Year One Earnout Amount. If Sellers deliver such letter, the Parties will follow the procedures for resolution of disputes set forth in Section 1.4(f) .



 

    (c)        Within 30 days after the Year Two Collection Date (as defined below), Buyer will deliver to Sellers a schedule setting forth in reasonable detail Buyer’s calculation of the Year Two Earnout Amount. Such calculation will be subject to Sellers’ review. In reviewing such calculation, Sellers will have the right to communicate with, and to review the work papers, schedules, memoranda, and other documents Buyer or its representatives prepared or reviewed in performing such calculation and thereafter will have access to all relevant books and records, all to the extent Sellers reasonably require to complete their review of such calculation. Within thirty (30) days after their receipt of Buyer’s calculation of the Year Two Earnout Amount, Sellers will advise Buyer whether, based on such review, they have any exception to such calculation. Unless Sellers deliver to Buyer within such thirty-day period a letter describing their exceptions to Buyer’s calculation of the Year Two Earnout Amount as set forth in the schedule delivered by Buyer to Sellers described in this Section 1.4(c) or a letter describing Buyer’s failure to comply with its obligations under this Section 1.4(c) that has resulted in Sellers’ inability to determine exceptions to the schedule Buyer delivers, Buyer’s calculation of the Year Two Earnout Amount for calendar year 2008 will be conclusive and binding on Buyer and Sellers as the Year Two Earnout Amount. If Sellers deliver such letter, the Parties will follow the procedures for resolution of disputes set forth in Section 1.4(f) .
