Performing RMR and Third Party Monitoring RMR as of October 20, 2004, as agreed to by Purchaser and Sellers. Based on the calculations set forth in Schedule 2.5(c) and inclusion of the Premium Payment, the initial estimated purchase price

Purchaser in connection with the calculation of the Initial Estimated Purchase Price), which will state in reasonable detail the nature and extent of each adjustment. The calculations of Performing RMR and Third Party Monitoring RMR used to prepare
the Final Purchase Price shall be prepared with the same methodology used to prepare Schedule 2.5(c) and calculated with respect only to Subscriber Contracts in effect as of the Closing Date. Purchaser shall permit Sellers to have reasonable
access to (i) the books, records and other documents pertaining to or used in connection with the calculation of the Final Purchase Price and (ii) employees of the Purchaser who have been involved in the calculation of the Final Purchase Price and
shall work with Sellers in good faith to come to agreement on the calculation of the Final Purchase Price. 
  
 (f) Should Sellers dispute Purchaser’s calculation of the Final Purchase Price, Starpoint shall, within thirty days after receipt of
the Final Purchase Price, notify Purchaser in writing of such dispute by setting forth Sellers’ calculation of the Final Purchase Price and describing in reasonable detail the basis for such dispute (an “Objection Notice”). If
no Objection Notice is delivered timely, then Purchaser’s calculation of the Final Purchase Price shall be presumed to be correct and will be binding on the parties. If an Objection Notice is delivered to Purchaser, then Purchaser and Starpoint
on behalf of Sellers shall negotiate in good faith to resolve the dispute with respect to the computation of the Final Purchase Price. In the event that Purchaser and Sellers are unable to resolve all such disagreements within fifteen (15) days
after Purchaser’s receipt of such Objection Notice, Purchaser and Sellers shall submit such remaining disagreements to Ernst & Young, or such other independent, nationally recognized accounting firm mutually acceptable to both parties (the
“Auditor”). Purchaser and Sellers shall use reasonable efforts to cause the Auditor to resolve all remaining disagreements with respect to the computation of the Final Purchase Price as soon as practicable, but in any event shall
direct the Auditor to render a determination within thirty days after its retention. The Auditor shall consider only those items and amounts in Purchaser’s and Sellers’ respective calculations of the Final Purchase Price that are
identified as being items and amounts to which Purchaser and Seller have been unable to agree. In resolving any disputed item, the Auditor may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either party or
less than the smallest value for such item claimed by either party. The Auditor’s determination of the Final Purchase Price shall be based solely on written materials submitted by Purchaser and Seller (i.e., not on independent review). The
determination of the Auditor shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto. 
  
 (g) The costs and expenses of the Auditor in determining the Final Purchase Price shall be borne by Purchaser, on the one hand, and
Sellers on the other hand, based upon the percentage which the portion of the disputed amount not awarded to each party bears to the amount actually disputed by such party. For example, if Purchaser claims the Final Purchase Price is $1,000 less
than the amount determined by Sellers, and Sellers contest only $500 of the amount claimed by Purchaser, and if the Auditor ultimately resolves the dispute by awarding Purchaser $300 of the $500 contested, then the costs and expenses of the Auditor
will be allocated 60 percent (i.e., 300 ÷ 500) to Sellers and 40 percent (i.e., 200 ÷ 500) to Purchaser.

 (h) On the Closing Date, Purchaser shall pay to Sellers a portion of the Purchase Price
equal to the difference between the Estimated Purchase Price less the sum of (i) the Closing Holdback and (ii) the Large Customer Agreement Escrow, if any (including the release of the Deposit and earnings thereon as partial payment of said
amount), which payment shall be made by federal funds wire transfer or other form of immediately available funds. Purchaser shall on the Closing Date deliver to the Escrow Agent in accordance with the Closing Escrow Agreement an amount equal to the
sum of (i) 10% of the Estimated Purchase Price plus (ii) an amount equal to the Aged Accounts Payable, if any (such sum of (i) and (ii) being collectively referred to as, the “Closing Holdback”) plus (iii) the Large
Customer Agreement Escrow, if any. The Closing Holdback, together with all interest and other sums earned thereon, are referred to as the “Closing Holdback Deposit”. The Closing Holdback Deposit and the Large Customer Agreement
Escrow shall be held by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the Closing Escrow Agreement and shall not, or be deemed to, be proceeds under this Agreement until such time as the parties agree or a final Order is entered declaring the same, or portion
thereof, to be payable to Sellers hereunder. Interest and other amounts earned on the Closing Holdback Deposit and the Large Customer Agreement Escrow shall be for the account of Sellers. Thereafter, the Closing Holdback will, in accordance with
Section 2.5(i) and Section 12.1, either be paid as directed by Sellers or returned to Purchaser. The Large Customer Agreement Escrow will, in accordance with Section 2.9, either be paid as directed by Sellers or returned to
Purchaser. 
  
 (i) To the extent that the Final
Purchase Price is less than the Estimated Purchase Price, Purchaser shall be entitled to receive from the Escrow Agent, within three Business Days of the final determination of the Final Purchase Price in accordance with Section 2.5(f), a
portion of the Closing Holdback equal to the amount that the Final Purchase Price is less than the Estimated Purchase Price. If the Final Purchase Price is greater than the Estimated Purchase Price, Purchaser shall pay to Sellers within three
Business Days of the final determination of the Final Purchase Price in accordance with Section 2.5(f) an amount equal to the difference between the Final Purchase Price and the Estimated Purchase Price by delivering to Escrow Agent by
federal funds wire transfer or other form of immediately available funds. 
  
 (j) All payments made to Seller hereunder shall be made directly as designated by Sellers to Purchaser in writing. Purchaser shall have no liability to any Seller with respect to any payment of the Purchase Price so
long as Purchaser delivers the Purchase Price as directed by Sellers in writing. 
  
 2.6 Allocation of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price, including the Premium Payment, (and all other capitalizable costs incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) shall be
allocated in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code as set forth on Schedule 2.6 hereto (the “Allocation”). The parties shall prepare and file all returns, statements or other similar information required to be furnished to
any tax authority in 

  

 - 21 - 








 
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including all statements or other information required to be furnished pursuant to Section
1060 of the Code, in a manner consistent with the Allocation. The parties hereby agree that the Allocation shall be conclusive and binding on each of them for all applicable purposes, including for purposes of U.S. federal income tax and, where
applicable, state and local or other tax returns; provided, however, that with respect to the several Sellers and their respective estates, the Allocation shall not be binding upon the creditors or other parties-in-interest in the Chapter 11
Cases for any purpose (except it shall be binding with respect to matters pertaining to Purchaser), including as to the allocation of the Purchase Price among the several estates of the Sellers. 
  
 2.7 Deposit. Simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, on
account of the Purchase Price Purchaser shall for the benefit of Sellers deliver a deposit in the amount equal to $4,200,244.24 (such sum, together with all interest and other sums earned thereon, is referred to as the
“Deposit”) to Sellers by certified check or wire transfer of immediately available funds. Interest and other amounts earned on the Deposit shall be for the account of Purchaser. The Deposit shall be applied to the Estimated Purchase
Price at the Closing or, upon termination of this Agreement, be released to Purchaser or Sellers pursuant to Section 13 of this Agreement. 
  
 2.8 Transfer Taxes and Similar Expenses. Any transfer taxes, sales taxes, stamp duties, filing fees, registration fees, recordation expenses,
escrow fees or other similar taxes, fees, charges or expenses of any kind whatsoever (other than income taxes, taxes on capital gains and all other taxes not specified above in this sentence) incurred by Sellers or any other party in connection with
the transfer of the Purchased Assets or the Business to Purchaser or in connection with any of the other transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements shall be borne and paid 50% by Sellers and 50% by Purchaser; provided however, if
the aggregate sum of the transfer taxes incurred by Sellers or any other party in connection with the transfer of the Purchased Assets or the Business to Purchaser or in connection with any of the other transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Agreements exceed $5,000, then Sellers shall pay 100% of the amount by which such transfer taxes exceed $5,000. Sellers may, at their option and upon written notice delivered to Purchaser no later than two Business Days prior to the Scheduled
Closing Date, require Purchaser to remit its share of any such payments to Sellers at the Closing pursuant to Section 4.2(a) to enable Sellers to remit timely payment to the appropriate party. If Sellers or Purchaser breach this Section
2.8, the breaching party shall indemnify the other party, hold the other party harmless, and reimburse the other party for any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses that arises as a
result of the breaching party’s breach of this Section 2.8. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 2.8 shall survive the Closing Date for the full period of any applicable
statute of limitations plus sixty days. 
  
 2.9 Large Customer
Agreement Escrow. 
  
 (a) If any Large
Customer Agreement cannot be delivered (i) free and clear of Encumbrances (including without limitation any Permitted Encumbrances) or other restrictions or (ii) in a manner satisfactory to Purchaser so as to allow Purchaser to assume and perform
the obligations under any such Large Customer Agreement without requiring the assistance of Sellers (Large Customer Agreements described in the 

  

 - 22 - 








 
foregoing clauses (i) or (ii) being referred to as an “Encumbered Large Customer Agreement”), Sellers and Purchaser agree to proceed to
close the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided however, that $180,000 of the Estimated Purchase Price shall be placed into a separate escrow account maintained in accordance with the Closing Escrow Agreement (the
“Large Customer Agreement Escrow”) to account for Renegotiated Agreement Discounts, if any, (as defined below) and to be released by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the Closing Escrow Agreement and this Section 2.9 on the
first Business Day following the Adjustment Date. To the extent that Purchaser negotiates any Renegotiated Agreement Discounts on or before the Adjustment Date, the Escrow Agent shall release to the Purchaser an amount equal to the aggregate amount
of Renegotiated Agreement Discounts on the first Business Day following the Adjustment Date, provided that such amount shall not exceed $180,000 (and Sellers and Purchaser shall timely deliver instructions to such effect to the Escrow Agent
in accordance with the Closing Escrow Agreement). To the extent that the aggregate amount of Renegotiated Agreement Discounts is less than $180,000, the Escrow Agent shall release to Sellers that portion of the Large Customer Agreement Escrow that
exceeds the Renegotiated Agreement Discounts on the first Business Day following the Adjustment Date (and Sellers and Purchaser shall timely deliver instructions to such effect to the Escrow Agent in accordance with the Closing Escrow Agreement). If
no Renegotiated Large Customer Agreements are entered into prior to the Adjustment Date, or if such Renegotiated Large Customer Agreements do not contain a Renegotiated Agreement Discount, the Escrow Agent shall release the entire amount of the
Large Customer Agreement Escrow to Sellers on the first Business Day following the Adjustment Date (and Sellers and Purchaser shall timely deliver instructions to such effect to the Escrow Agent in accordance with the Closing Escrow Agreement).

  
 (b) Following the Closing Date, Purchaser
agrees to (i) perform under any Encumbered Large Customer Agreement on a subcontract basis to Sellers or pursuant to any other collaboration (reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser) with Sellers and obtain the benefits thereof and (ii) use its
commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate with the applicable counter-party to any such Encumbered Large Customer Agreement a new or amended agreement (any such agreement, a “Renegotiated Large Customer Agreement”) free of the
Encumbrances (and Permitted Encumbrances) of the type set forth in Section 2.9(a)(i) and (ii) that causes such Large Customer Agreement to be an Encumbered Large Customer Agreement for purposes hereof. For purposes hereof, a
“Renegotiated Agreement Discount” means with, respect to any Renegotiated Large Customer Agreement, the Performing RMR attributable to such Renegotiated Large Customer Agreement which is less than the Performing RMR attributable to
the Encumbered Large Customer Agreement replaced thereby, in an amount equal to the product of (i) 50% multiplied by (ii) the difference between (x) 34 multiplied by the Performing RMR attributable to the Encumbered Large Customer Agreement replaced
by the Renegotiated Large Customer Agreement minus (y) 34 multiplied by the Performing RMR attributable to such Renegotiated Large Customer Agreement.

Trustee). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Purchaser agrees that it shall keep and maintain, and not destroy or discard, any books and records it obtains from Sellers that are identified by Sellers as relating in any way to the
Circle Arbitration unless Purchaser first gives prior written notice to Starpoint and the counsel of record representing the plaintiff in the Circle Arbitration (“Circle’s Counsel”). If Starpoint and Circle’s Counsel do
not object in writing to such books and records being destroyed or discarded within 15 days of the receipt of the notice, they shall be deemed to have consented to such actions by Purchaser.

any other remuneration payable by Sellers to each such employee as of such date and whether or not the employee is an Employee on Leave. Two Business Days prior to the Scheduled Closing Date, Sellers will provide Purchaser Schedule 9.3 which
will set forth any changes to Schedule 5.13 during the period between October 15, 2004 and the Scheduled Closing Date.

will make certain changes to the employee benefits and policies referenced in the immediately preceding sentence prior to the Closing Date in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices and Purchaser shall provide substantially
comparable benefits and policies to the Accepting Employees. 
  
 (g) Purchaser agrees to credit each of the Accepting Employees with the same service credited by the applicable Seller or by the applicable Employee Benefit Plan immediately prior to Closing, for all purposes,

commercially reasonable best efforts to (i) give credit under Purchaser’s group health plans for deductibles and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by employees of each Seller during the plan year in which the Closing occurs; (ii) waive all
pre-existing condition clauses under Purchaser’s group health plan; and (iii) waive eligibility waiting periods under Purchaser’s group health plan. Sellers’ welfare benefit plans shall retain liability for all claims incurred by the
employees of each Seller and their covered dependents prior to the Closing Date, including claims which are not submitted until after the Closing Date, as long as the covered claim is incurred on a date while the employee was still covered by
Sellers’ welfare benefit plans. Purchaser’s welfare benefit plans shall be responsible for all claims incurred on or after the Closing Date. A claim shall be deemed incurred (x) on the date of the occurrence of death or dismemberment in
the case of claims under life insurance and accidental death and dismemberment plans, (y) in the case of a claim for disability benefits, on the date the disability is deemed to have commenced after all applicable waiting periods are satisfied, and

The Penn Mutual Life Insurance Company (the “Insurer”). Starpoint shall submit to Insurer such forms or designations as the Insurer may require for valid and effective assignment of the Policy. Such assignment will take place
sixty-one days after Closing, provided that David Schlottman has not exercised his option to purchase the Policy from Starpoint. If David Schlottman exercises his option to purchase the Policy from Starpoint, this provision shall be of no further

occur prior to or on the Closing Date (the “Pre-Closing Period”) and the number of days in the Straddle Period that occur after the Closing Date (the “Post-Closing Period”). Sellers shall be liable for the
proportionate per-diem amount of the Apportioned Taxes that are attributable to the Pre-Closing Period. Purchaser shall be liable for the proportionate per-diem amount of the Apportioned Taxes that are attributable to the Post-Closing Period. Within
90 days after the Closing, Sellers and Purchaser shall present a statement to the other setting forth the amount of reimbursement to which each is entitled under this Section 9.4(d), taking into account the Apportioned Taxes that have already
been pre-paid by the Sellers and the Apportioned Taxes that have already been paid, or will be paid, by the Purchaser. Such statements shall include supporting evidence as is reasonably necessary to calculate the relevant proration and reimbursement
amounts. The net amount of reimbursement owed by one party to the other shall be paid by the party owing it to the other within 10 days after delivery of such statements. Thereafter, if either Sellers or Purchaser shall make a payment of Apportioned
Taxes for which it is entitled to reimbursement under this Section 9.4(d), the other party shall make such reimbursement promptly but in no event later than 30 days after the presentation of a statement setting forth the amount of
reimbursement to which the presenting party is entitled along with such supporting evidence as is reasonably necessary to calculate the amount of reimbursement.

the 90 day period set forth in (i) above. Such license shall be for the purpose of assisting Purchaser in the transition of Sellers’ customers to Purchaser’s business. Except as expressly set forth in the License Agreement, Purchaser
acknowledges and agrees that no rights whatsoever in or to names “Adelphia,” “Adelphia Security” or any trademarks, service marks, trade names, phrases or logos associated therewith or relating thereto, whether registered and
unregistered (collectively, the “Adelphia Marks”) are conveyed to Purchaser in connection with purchase of the Purchased Assets pursuant to this Agreement, and that Sellers and Adelphia retain all right, title and interest in and to
the Adelphia Marks. Subject to the terms of the License Agreement, Purchaser shall indemnify Sellers from and against any and all Liabilities Sellers incur as a result of any use of the “Adelphia Security” name and logo by Purchaser.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Purchaser be obligated to replace signage containing any of the Adelphia Marks on protected premises, and the continued existence of Adelphia Marks on such signage shall in no event be deemed to be a
“use” thereof for purposes of this Agreement or the License Agreement. 
  
 (b) None of Sellers shall from and after the Closing Date use any of the Adelphia Marks or paper stock in connection with any security
monitoring business in New York, Pennsylvania or Florida. 
  
 9.6 Circle Arbitration Matters. From and after the Closing Date, Purchaser will provide Sellers and their Affiliates with timely access to books and records relating to the Purchased Assets or Business and the Accepting
Employees as may be reasonably necessary in connection with the Circle Arbitration. Purchaser agrees to cooperate with Sellers and their Affiliates in connection with all matters relating to the Circle Arbitration, including making the Accepting
Employees available to be interviewed, deposed and/or to be witnesses in the Circle Arbitration proceedings, at no charge to Sellers or their Affiliates. Purchaser specifically acknowledges that it will make David Schlottman, if he is an Accepting
Employee, available to assist in the defense of the Circle Arbitration, including attending depositions and the arbitration proceedings at no charge to Sellers or their Affiliates. Purchaser further agrees not knowingly to make any admissions,
purport to negotiate with the parties to the Circle Arbitration with respect thereto, or purport to waive on behalf of Sellers any privileges or enter into on behalf of Sellers any settlement in connection with the Circle Arbitration; provided,
however, Purchaser shall in no event be responsible for or liable to Sellers by reason of any action or inaction of its employees or other agents who Seller at anytime involves in or consults in connection with the Circle Arbitration.
Without limitation of the foregoing, Sellers hereby acknowledge and agree that Purchaser shall not be liable for any action or inaction by any Accepting Employee, including, without limitation, if applicable, David Schlottman (or by any

 9.7 Conduct of Business. From and after the Closing Date for a period of 90 days, Purchaser
will conduct the affairs of the Business (including collection practices) in the ordinary course and in a commercially reasonable manner consistent with past practice and will not take any steps that would reasonably be expected to result in
customers (i) terminating their contracts for services, (ii) ceasing to pay for services or (iii) paying late for services. 
  
 9.8 Customer Transition Matters. 
  
 (a) From the date of execution of this Agreement until the Closing, Sellers shall (i) use their commercially reasonable efforts to
transition the monitoring of all customers monitored by Sellers over cable modem to monitoring over telephone lines and (ii) pay all costs associated with such transition. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that such transition requires the
permission of each customer to be transitioned as well as access to such customer’s home. Sellers shall make commercially reasonable efforts to contact all customers who are monitored over cable modem to gain permission and access for such
transition. Once Sellers have sent three written notices to each such customer, including at least one notice via certified mail, Sellers will be deemed to have performed their obligations under this Section 9.8(a), regardless of whether each
such customer has been successfully transitioned to monitoring over telephone lines. The parties further acknowledge and agree that once Sellers have taken the steps outlined in the previous sentence to contact customers monitored over cable modem,
if any such customer does not respond, Sellers shall send a notice to such customer stating that such customer shall no longer be monitored by Sellers. 
  
 (b) After the Closing Date for so long as there are customers who are still monitored over cable modem, Sellers shall, or shall cause
their Affiliates to, provide Purchaser with reasonable and necessary access to such cable facilities and such cable personnel as Purchaser may need in order to perform security monitoring services for the customers that are still monitored by cable
modem. Sellers shall provide such access at no cost to Purchaser. 
  
 (c) At such time as either (i) all customers previously monitored over cable modem have been transitioned and are monitored over telephone lines or (ii) Sellers have taken all of the steps outlined above in Section
9.8(a) to attempt to transition all customers to monitoring over telephone lines, the provisions in Sections 9.8(a) and (b) above shall be of no further force and effect and Sellers shall have no further obligations under such provisions.

be true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date with the same effect as though made on and as of the Closing Date. An officer of Purchaser shall provide Sellers with a certificate to such effect. 
  
 11.2 Performance. Purchaser shall have performed, in all
material respects, all obligations required by this Agreement to be performed by Purchaser on or before the Closing Date. An officer of Purchaser shall provide Sellers with a certificate to such effect. 
  
 11.3 Additional Documents. Sellers shall have received the
following documents: 
  
 (a) the Sale Order; and

  
 (b) the Closing Escrow Agreement. 

 
 11.4 No Injunction; Sale Order is Final. There shall not be
in effect, at the Closing Date, any injunction or other binding order of any court or other tribunal having jurisdiction over Sellers that prohibits the sale of the Purchased Assets to Purchaser. The Sale Order shall have been entered, shall not
have been reversed or vacated, and shall not be subject to appeal or a stay pending appeal. The stay provided for in Fed.R.Bankr.P. 6004(g) shall have expired or waived by the Bankruptcy Court. 
  
 Section 12. Indemnification. 
  
 12.1 Indemnification by Sellers. 
  
 (a) From and after the Closing, and subject to the provisions of this
Section 12.1, Sellers shall, jointly and severally, indemnify Purchaser and defend and reimburse Purchaser for and hold Purchaser harmless from and against any loss, suit, liability, claim, actual damage, charge, cost or expense (including
reasonable legal fees and expenses) (collectively, “Losses”), actually incurred by Purchaser arising out of or in connection with following: 
  

(i) any breach of any representation or warranty of Sellers set forth in this Agreement; 
  
 (ii) any breach of any covenant of any of the Sellers set
forth in this Agreement; and 
  

 - 43 - 








 (iii) the Circle Arbitration. 
  
 (b) Sellers shall not be required to indemnify Purchaser, and shall not have
any liability under clause (i) of Section 12.1(a), for (i) any Losses in the aggregate in excess of the Closing Holdback Deposit, minus any payments to be made in accordance with Section 2.5(i) (the “Indemnification Holdback
Amount”) or (ii) any Losses unless the aggregate of all of Purchaser’s Losses exceed $75,000 (and then Purchaser may recover all of such Losses, subject to the limitation of clause (i) of this Section 12.1(b)). For purposes of
this Section 12.1, Losses will be measured without regard to any materiality standards set forth in any representation or warranty of Sellers set forth in this Agreement. Sellers shall satisfy their obligation under this Section 12.1
by directing Escrow Agent to deliver to Purchaser a portion of the Indemnification Escrow Amount equal to the amount of any Losses incurred by Purchaser for which Purchaser is entitled to recover from Sellers hereunder. Any indemnification payments
to Purchaser under this Agreement shall be made exclusively out of the Indemnification Escrow Amount and Purchaser hereby acknowledges that Sellers’ obligations to indemnify, defend, reimburse and hold Purchaser harmless in accordance with this
Section 12.1 is without recourse to Sellers’ assets other than the Indemnification Escrow Amount. Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy for indemnification claims hereunder shall be a claim against the Indemnification Escrow Amount
pursuant to the provisions set forth in this Section 12. 
  
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 12.1(b) to the contrary, neither of the limitations set forth in Section 12.1(b)(i) and (ii) on Purchaser’s right to recover from Sellers Losses incurred by
Purchaser shall apply to any Losses incurred by Purchaser in connection with (i) the Circle Arbitration or (ii) Sellers’ breach of the representation and warranty set forth in Section 5.11(e). 
  
 (d) Sellers’ obligations to indemnify, defend, reimburse and hold
harmless Purchaser in accordance with this Section 12.1 shall terminate on the six month anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Indemnification Termination Date”); provided, however, that such obligation to
indemnify, defend and hold harmless shall not terminate with respect to any item as to which a covered claim has been made against Purchaser and Purchaser shall have, prior to the six month anniversary of the Closing Date, made a claim for
indemnification by delivering a notice of such claim to Sellers. 
  
 (e) In the event Purchaser should have a claim against Sellers under this Section 12.1, Purchaser shall deliver notice of such claim promptly following discovery by Purchaser of such claim to Sellers. The failure to so notify shall
not relieve Sellers of any liability they may have to Purchaser if such failure does not prejudice Sellers. If Sellers dispute their liability with respect to such claim, prior to any party’s seeking any relief at law, the parties shall proceed
in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute for a period of at least sixty (60) days after Sellers’ receipt of the claim notice. 
  
 (f) The Indemnification Holdback Amount shall be released to Sellers on the six month anniversary of the Closing Date; provided, however,
that any portion of the Indemnification Holdback Amount that is subject to any claim made by Purchaser against Sellers hereunder prior to the six month anniversary of the Closing Date shall, instead of being delivered 

  

 - 44 - 








 
to Sellers, be retained by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the Closing Escrow Agreement pending, and delivered to Sellers or Purchaser in accordance
with, the resolution of any such claim by agreement of the parties or Bankruptcy Court order. Sellers and Purchaser shall timely deliver instructions pursuant to this Section 12.1(f) to the Escrow Agent in accordance with the Closing Escrow
Agreement. 
  
 12.2 Indemnification by Purchaser.
Effective upon the Closing Date, Purchaser shall indemnify and hold Sellers and their Affiliates, employees, agents, officers and directors harmless against any and all Liabilities arising out of Purchaser’s operation of the Business, ownership
of the Purchased Assets and any failure to perform or discharge any Assumed Liabilities after the Closing Date. 
  
 Section 13. Termination of Agreement. 
  
 13.1 Right to Terminate Agreement. This Agreement may be terminated prior to the Closing: 
  
 (a) by the mutual consent of Purchaser and Sellers;

  
 (b) by either Purchaser or Sellers, upon
written notice to the other, if the Bankruptcy Court has not entered the Sale Order on or before February 15, 2005; 
  
 (c) by either Purchaser or Sellers, upon 30 days written notice to the other, if the non-terminating party is in material breach of this
Agreement and does not cure such breach within such 30 days, provided that the party seeking to terminate is not in material breach or default of this Agreement and the written notice describes the breach in reasonable detail; 
  
 (d) by either Purchaser or Sellers, upon written notice to
the other, if the Closing shall have not occurred within 30 Business Days of the entry by the Bankruptcy Court of the Sale Order because any of the conditions set forth in Sections 10 or 11, respectively, shall have not been satisfied (or
waived by Sellers or Purchaser, as applicable); provided, however, that this Section 13.1(d) shall not be applicable to the extent of any extension pursuant to Section 14.18; 
  
 (e) by Sellers, in the event the Sellers accept a competing
bid that is a higher or otherwise better offer in accordance with the Procedures Order; provided, however, in accordance with the Procedures Order, this Agreement (as modified, if modified, by any bids submitted by Purchaser at or before the
Auction) shall remain in force and effect as a back up bid to purchase the Purchased Assets for a period of sixty days following the entry of the Sale Order and the parties hereto shall consummate the transactions contemplated hereby in the event
the parties fail to close under such approved competing bid or any other higher or otherwise better backup competing bid; provided further, however, that upon the Sellers’ acceptance of a competing bid and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by such Bankruptcy Court approved competing bid or higher or otherwise better backup competing bid, this Agreement shall be deemed terminated contemporaneously with such consummation. 
  

 - 45 - 








 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 13.1, a party shall not have the right to terminate this
Agreement if such party’s failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement has been the cause of such termination event. 
  
 13.2 Termination Procedures. If Purchaser wishes to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 13.1, Purchaser shall deliver to
Sellers a written notice stating that Purchaser is terminating this Agreement and setting forth a brief description of the basis on which Purchaser is terminating this Agreement. If Sellers wish to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section
13.1, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser a written notice stating that Sellers are terminating this Agreement and setting forth a brief description of the basis on which Sellers are terminating this Agreement. 
  
 13.3 Effect of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated
pursuant to Section 13.1, all further obligations of the parties under this Agreement shall terminate; provided, however, that: 
  
 (a) if such termination results from a party’s breach of a representation, warranty or covenant hereunder, the non-breaching party
shall have all remedies available to it under this Agreement and applicable law; 
  
 (b) the parties shall, in all events, remain bound by and continue to be subject to the provisions of Sections 14.1-14.4 and 14.16
of this Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement (including, but not limited to, the provisions relating to non-solicitation of Sellers’ employees), all of which shall survive termination of this Agreement; 
  
 (c) Purchaser shall promptly cause to be returned to Sellers
all documents and information obtained in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and all documents and information obtained in connection with Purchaser’s investigation of the Purchased Assets and the
Business, including any copies made by Purchaser or any of Purchaser’s Representatives of any such documents or information; and 
  
 (d) unless otherwise provided for in the Procedures Order, within five Business Days of termination of this Agreement pursuant to
Section 13.1, Purchaser shall be entitled to the return of the Deposit; provided, however, that Sellers shall be entitled to the Deposit if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to clause (c) or (d) of Section 13.1 as a result
of a breach by Purchaser of its obligations hereunder. Return of the Deposit pursuant to this Section 13.3(d) shall be Purchaser’s sole remedy for Sellers’ failure to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
