        ARTICLE I


         

        THE
MERGER

         

        1.1 The
Merger. 
At the Effective Time and subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this
Agreement and the applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law
(“Delaware Law”), Merger
Sub shall be merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), the separate
corporate existence of Merger Sub shall cease, and the Company shall continue as
the surviving corporation.  The Company as the surviving corporation
after the Merger is sometimes referred to hereinafter as the “Surviving
Corporation.”

         

        1.2 Effective
Time. 
Unless this Agreement is earlier terminated pursuant to Section 7.1 hereof, the closing of
the Merger (the “Closing”) will take place as
promptly as practicable, and in any event no more than three (3) Business Days,
after the conditions set forth in Article V hereof have
been satisfied or waived, at the offices of Seyfarth Shaw LLP, 975 F Street,
N.W., Washington, D.C. 20004 unless another time or place is mutually agreed
upon in writing by Parent and the Company. The date upon which the Closing
actually occurs shall be referred to herein as the “Closing Date.”  On
the Closing Date, the parties hereto shall cause the Merger to be consummated by
filing or causing to be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of
Delaware a certificate of merger in substantially the form attached hereto as
Exhibit C (the
“Certificate of Merger”) in
accordance with the applicable provisions of Delaware Law, the time of filing of
the Certificate of Merger by the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware
shall be referred to herein as the “Effective
Time.”

         

        1.3 Effect
of the Merger. 
The effect of the Merger shall be as set forth in this Agreement and as provided
in the applicable provisions of Delaware Law.  Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, upon the filing of the
Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware,
except as otherwise agreed to pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, all of
the property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and
Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities
and duties of the Company, and Merger shall become the debts, liabilities and
duties of the Surviving Corporation.

         

        1.4 Organizational
Documents

         

        (a)           Unless
otherwise determined by Parent prior to the Effective Time, the certificate of
incorporation of the Merger Sub shall be the certificate of incorporation of the
Surviving Corporation.

         

        (b) Unless
otherwise determined by Parent prior to the Effective Time, the bylaws of the
Merger Sub shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.

Corporation, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration
payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to this Agreement to any Person such
amounts as may be required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under any
provision of federal, state, local or foreign tax law or under any applicable
legal requirement.  The number of shares of Merger Consideration to be
used to satisfy the amount required to be so deducted or withheld, if any, shall
be determined by dividing such amount by fair market value of the Parent Common
Stock at the Effective Time, rounded to the nearest whole share (with 0.5 of a
share rounded up).  To the extent such amounts are so deducted or
withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as
having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been
paid.

         

        (g) Capital Stock of
Merger Sub.  Each share of Common Stock of Merger Sub issued
and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into

Common Stock of the Surviving Corporation.  Each stock certificate of
Merger Sub evidencing ownership of any such shares shall continue to evidence
ownership of such shares of capital stock of the Surviving
Corporation.

Certificates.

         

        (a) Exchange

Merger.

         

        (b) Exchange

three (3) Business Days, following the Closing Date, Parent shall mail a letter
of transmittal in Parent’s standard form to each Stockholder at the address set
forth opposite each such Stockholder’s name on Schedule A to this
Agreement.  After receipt of such letter of transmittal and any other
documents that Parent may require in order to effect the exchange (the “Exchange Documents”), the
Stockholders will surrender the certificates representing their shares of
Company Capital Stock (the “Company Stock Certificates”)
to the Exchange Agent for cancellation together with duly completed and validly
executed Exchange Documents.  Upon surrender of a Company Stock
Certificate for cancellation to Parent, or such agent or agents as may be
appointed by Parent, together with such Exchange Documents, duly completed and
validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, the holder of such
Company Stock Certificate shall be entitled to receive from the Exchange Agent
in exchange therefor, a certificate representing the number of whole shares of
Parent Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 1.6 hereof, and the
Company Stock Certificate so surrendered shall be cancelled. Until so
surrendered, each Company Stock Certificate outstanding after the Effective Time
will be deemed, for all corporate purposes thereafter, to evidence only the
right to receive the number of full shares of Parent Common Stock into which
such shares of Company Capital Stock shall have been so converted.  No
portion of the Merger Consideration will be paid to the holder of any
unsurrendered Company Stock Certificate with respect to shares of Company
Capital Stock formerly represented thereby until the holder of record of such
Company Stock Certificate shall surrender such Company Stock Certificate and the
Exchange Documents pursuant hereto.

         

        (c) Distributions
With Respect to Unexchanged Shares.  No dividends or other
distributions declared or made after the Effective Time with respect to Parent
Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time will be paid to the
holder of any unsurrendered Company Stock Certificate with respect to the shares
of Parent Common Stock represented thereby until the holder of record of such
Company Stock Certificate shall surrender such Company Stock
Certificate.  Subject to applicable law, following surrender of any
such Company Stock Certificate, there shall be paid to the record holder of the
certificates representing whole shares of Parent Common Stock issued in exchange
therefor, without interest, at the time of such surrender, the amount of
dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time
theretofore paid with respect to such whole shares of Parent Common
Stock.

          CONFIDENTIAL

           

        

        (d) Transfers of
Ownership.  If any certificate for shares of Parent Common
Stock is to be issued in a name other than that in which the Company Stock
Certificate surrendered in exchange therefor is registered it will be a
condition of the issuance or delivery thereof that the certificate so
surrendered will be properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for transfer
and that the person requesting such exchange will have paid to Parent or any
agent designated by it any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the
issuance of a certificate for shares of Parent Common Stock in any name other
than that of the registered holder of the certificate surrendered, or
established to the satisfaction of Parent or any agent designated by it that
such tax has been paid or is not payable.

         

        (e) No
Liability.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Section 1.7, neither Parent, the
Surviving Corporation, nor any party hereto shall be liable to a holder of
shares of Company Capital Stock for any amount paid to a public official
pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar
law.

         

        1.8 No
Further Ownership Rights in Company Capital Stock. 
The shares of Parent Common Stock issued in respect of the surrender for
exchange of shares of Company Capital Stock in accordance with the terms hereof
shall be deemed to be full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares
of Company Capital Stock, and there shall be no further registration of
transfers on the records of the Surviving Corporation of shares of Company
Capital Stock which were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective
Time.  If, after the Effective Time, Company Stock Certificates are
presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be cancelled
and exchanged as provided in this Article I.

         

        1.9 Lost,
Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. 
In the event any Company Stock Certificates shall have been lost, stolen or
destroyed, Parent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed
certificates, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder
thereof, such amount, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 1.6 hereof; provided, however, that
Parent may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance
thereof, require the Stockholder who is the owner of such lost, stolen or
destroyed certificates to either (i) deliver a bond in such amount as it
may direct or (ii) provide an indemnification agreement in form and
substance acceptable to Parent, against any claim that may be made against
Parent with respect to the certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or
destroyed.

         

        1.10 Tax
Consequences. 
Parent, Merger Sub and Company (i) intend that the Merger shall constitute a
reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(A) of the Code, (ii)
shall report the Merger (if such Person has tax reporting obligations in respect
thereof) as a single statutory merger of the Company with and into Parent
qualifying as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(A) of the
Code for federal income tax purposes, and (iii) by executing this Agreement,
adopt a plan of tax-free reorganization within the meaning of Treasury
Regulations Sections 1.368 2(g) and 1.368 3.  However, no party hereto
makes any representations or warranties regarding the tax treatment of
the  Merger, or any of the tax consequences relating to the Merger,
this Agreement, or any of the other transactions or agreements contemplated
hereby.  Each party hereto acknowledges that it is relying solely on
its own tax advisors in connection with the Merger, this Agreement and the other
transactions and agreements contemplated hereby.

         

        1.11 Taking
of Necessary Action; Further Action.

desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving

Surviving Corporation and the officers and directors of Parent and the Surviving
Corporation are fully authorized in the name of their respective corporations or
otherwise to take, and will take, all such lawful and necessary
action.

        2.7 Company
Financial Statements. 
Section 2.7 of the Disclosure
Schedule sets forth the Company’s (i) Annual unaudited financials for
the year ended December 31, 2007 (the “Year-End Financials”), and
(ii) the unaudited consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2008 (the
“Current Balance Sheet
Date”).  The Year-End Financials (collectively referred to as
the “Financials”) are true and
correct in all material respects and have been prepared in accordance with GAAP
applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods indicated and consistent
with each other (except that the Interim Financials do not contain footnotes and
other presentation items that may be required by GAAP).  The
Financials present fairly the Company’s consolidated financial condition,
operating results and cash flows as of the dates and during the periods
indicated therein, subject in the case of the Interim Financials to normal
year-end adjustments, which are not material in amount or significance in any
individual case or in the aggregate.  The Company’s unaudited
consolidated balance sheet as of the Current Balance Sheet Date is referred to
hereinafter as the “Current Balance
Sheet.”  The Company has not had any disagreement (as such term
is defined in Item 304 of Regulation S-K promulgated under the
Securities Act) with any of its auditors regarding accounting matters or
policies during any of its past three full fiscal years or during the current
fiscal year-to-date.  The books and records of the Company and each
Subsidiary have been, and are being maintained in all material respects in
accordance with applicable legal and accounting requirements and the Financials
are consistent with such books and records.  Neither the Company nor
any of its Subsidiaries is a party to, or has any commitment to become a party
to, any joint venture, off-balance sheet partnership or any similar Contract
relating to any transaction or relationship between or among the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any unconsolidated affiliate,
including any structured finance, special purpose or limited purpose Person on
the other hand, or any “off-balance sheet arrangement” (as defined in Item
303(a) of Regulation S-K of the SEC).  As of the Closing Date,
the Financials (x) will be true and correct in all material respects and will
have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis
throughout the periods indicated, and (y) will present fairly, in all material
respects, the Company’s consolidated financial condition, operating results and
cash flows as of the dates and during the periods indicated
therein.

         

        2.8 No
Undisclosed Liabilities. 
Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has any liability, indebtedness,
obligation, expense, claim, deficiency, guaranty or endorsement of any type,
whether accrued, absolute, contingent, matured, unmatured or other (whether or
not required to be reflected in financial statements in accordance with GAAP) in
excess of $10,000 individually or $50,000 in the aggregate, except for those
which (i) have been reflected in the unaudited consolidated balance sheet
of the Company as of the Current Balance Sheet Date, (ii) have arisen in
the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices since the Current
Balance Sheet Date, or (iii) are liabilities or obligations incurred in
connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

         

        2.9 No
Changes. 
From the Current Balance Sheet Date through the date hereof, (a) the
business of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries has been conducted in the
ordinary course of business consistent with past practice; and (b) there
has not been any event, change, development or set of circumstances that has had
or would reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a
material adverse effect on the financial condition or results of operations of
the Company.

          CONFIDENTIAL

           

        

        (b) All of
the accounts receivable of the Company and its Subsidiaries arose in the
ordinary course of business, are carried at values determined in accordance with
GAAP consistently applied to the Company’s Knowledge, are not subject to any
valid set-off or counterclaim, do not represent obligations for goods sold on
consignment, on approval or on a sale-or-return basis or subject to any other
repurchase or return arrangement.  No person has any Lien on any
accounts receivable of the Company and its Subsidiaries and no request or
agreement for deduction or discount has been made with respect to any accounts
receivable of the Company and its Subsidiaries, other than in the ordinary
course of business consistent with past practices.

the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is delinquent in the payment of any Tax,
or has been delinquent in the payment of any material Tax, nor is there any Tax

        (iv) No audit
or other examination of any Return of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is
presently in progress, nor has the Company or any of its Subsidiaries been
notified of any request for such an audit or other examination.  No
adjustment relating to any Return filed by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries has been proposed by any Tax authority to the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries or any representative thereof.  No claim has ever been
made by an authority in a jurisdiction where the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries does not file Returns that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries

        2.13 Title to
Properties; Absence of Liens and Encumbrances; Condition of
Equipment. 

         

        (a) Neither
the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries owns any real property, nor has the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries ever owned any real
property.  Section 2.13(a) of the Disclosure
Schedule sets forth a complete and accurate list of all real property
currently leased, subleased or licensed by or from the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries or otherwise used or occupied by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries (the “Leased Real Property”),
including the name of the lessor, licensor, sublessor, master lessor and/or
lessee, the date and term of the lease, license, sublease or other occupancy
right and each amendment thereto and, with respect to any current lease,
license, sublease or other occupancy right, the square footage of the premises
leased thereunder and the aggregate annual rental payable thereunder.


         

        (b) The
Company has provided Parent true, correct and complete copies of all leases,
lease guaranties, subleases, agreements for the leasing, use or occupancy of, or
otherwise granting a right in or relating to the Leased Real Property, including
all amendments, terminations and modifications thereof and all consents and
waivers relating thereto (“Lease Agreements”); and there
are no other Lease Agreements for real property affecting the Leased Real
Property or to which Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound, other than
those identified in Section 2.13(a) of the Disclosure
Schedule.  All such Lease Agreements are in full force and effect and
valid and effective in accordance with their respective terms, and there is not,
under any of such Lease Agreements, any existing default, no rentals past due,
or event of default (or event which with notice or lapse of time, or both, could
constitute a default).  Neither the Company nor any of its
Subsidiaries has received any notice of a default, alleged failure to perform,
or any offset or counterclaim with respect to any such Lease Agreement, which
has not been fully remedied and withdrawn.  There are no other parties
occupying, or with a right to occupy, the Leased Real Property, except as set
forth in Section 2.13(a) of the Disclosure
Schedule.  Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries owe any
brokerage commissions or finders fees with respect to any such Leased Real
Property or would owe any such fees if any existing Lease Agreement were renewed
pursuant to any renewal options contained in such Lease Agreements.

         

        (c) The
Leased Real Property is sufficient and otherwise suitable for the conduct of the
business as presently conducted.

         

        (d) The
Company and its Subsidiaries have good and valid title to, or, in the case of
leased properties and assets, valid leasehold interests in, all of its material
tangible properties and material assets, real, personal and mixed, used or held
for use in its business, free and clear of any Liens, except (i) as
reflected in the Current Balance Sheet, (ii) Liens for Taxes not yet due
and payable, and (iii) such imperfections of title and encumbrances, if
any, which do not detract from the value or interfere with the present use of
the property subject thereto or affected thereby.  Each Lease
Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the landlord and the tenant
thereunder, and no term or condition thereof has been modified, amended or
waived, except as described in Section 2.13(a) of the Disclosure
Schedule and shown in the copies of the Lease Agreements that have
previously been delivered by the Company to Parent.  The Company and
its Subsidiaries have not transferred or assigned any interest in any such Lease
Agreement, nor has the Company or any of its Subsidiaries subleased or otherwise

including all Company Intellectual Property (including access to design

in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company, and Parent shall be liable for
any breaches by any such Persons), (ii) all other information concerning
the business and personnel (subject to restrictions imposed by applicable law)

available information about Parent as the Company may request.  No

pursuant to the negotiation and execution of this Agreement or the effectuation
of the transactions contemplated hereby, shall be governed by the terms of the
MOU for Strategic Reliance dated November 5, 2008 (the “Nondisclosure Agreement”),
between the Company and Parent.  Parent and the Company agree that
such information will constitute “Confidential Information” as contemplated by
the Nondisclosure Agreement, notwithstanding any failure (i) to
specifically designate such information as “Confidential,” “Proprietary” or some
similar designation and (ii) to confirm in writing that information
communicated orally is “Confidential Information.”  The Company
further acknowledges that the Parent Common Stock is publicly traded and that
any information obtained during the course of its due diligence could be
considered to be material non-public information within the meaning of federal
and state securities laws.  Accordingly, the Company acknowledges and
agrees not to engage in any discussions or correspondence regarding or
transactions in the Parent Common Stock in violation of applicable securities
laws.

shall issue any statement or communication to any third party (other than their
agents that are bound by confidentiality restrictions) regarding the subject
matter of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, including, if

the consent of the other, except that this restriction shall be subject to
Parent’s obligation to comply with applicable securities laws.

         

        4.5 Reasonable
Efforts. 
Subject to the terms and conditions provided in this Agreement, each of the
parties hereto shall use its reasonable efforts to take promptly, or cause to be
taken promptly, all actions, and to do promptly, or cause to be done promptly,

registrations and filings and to remove any injunctions or other impediments or
delays, legal or otherwise, in order to consummate and make effective the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement for the purpose of securing to the
parties hereto the benefits contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that
Parent shall not be required to agree to (x) any license, sale or other
disposition or holding separate (through establishment of a trust or otherwise)
of any shares of capital stock or of any business, assets or properties of
Parent, its subsidiaries or affiliates or of the Company, (y) the
imposition of any limitation on the ability of Parent, its subsidiaries or

of Certain Matters. 
Parent and the Company shall give prompt notice to the other party to this
Agreement of: (i) the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event, which

to comply with or satisfy any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied
with or satisfied by it hereunder; provided, however, that the delivery of any
notice pursuant to this Section 4.6 shall not

amend or supplement the Disclosure Schedule or prevent or cure any
misrepresentation, breach of warranty or breach of covenant.

        (b) As
promptly as practicable after the execution of this Agreement, the Company shall
submit this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby to the
Stockholders for approval and adoption as provided by Delaware Law and the
Charter Documents.  Such submission, and any proxy or consent in
connection therewith, shall include a solicitation of Requisite Stockholder
Vote.

         

        (c) Any
materials to be submitted to the Stockholders in connection with the
solicitation of their approval of the Merger and this Agreement, including any
Information Statement and if required pursuant to Section 4.8(e) any materials submitted

be subject to reasonable review and approval by Parent and shall include
information regarding the Company, the terms of the Merger and this Agreement,
and the unanimous recommendation of the Board of Directors of the Company in
favor of the Merger and this Agreement, including each of the matters set forth
in Section 4.8(b) hereof and if
required pursuant to Section
4.8(e), the
280G Approval.  Anything to the contrary contained herein
notwithstanding, the Company shall not include in the Soliciting Materials any
information with respect to Parent or its affiliates or associates, the form and
content of which shall not have been consented to in writing by Parent prior to
such inclusion.  The Company and Parent will promptly advise the other
in writing if at any time prior to the Closing the Company or Parent, as the
case may be, shall obtain knowledge of any facts that might make it necessary or
appropriate to amend or supplement the Soliciting Materials in order to make
statements contained or incorporated by reference therein not misleading or to
comply with applicable law; provided that Parent shall
only be required to provide notice of any such facts to the extent such facts
relate to information furnished in writing by Parent or Merger Sub for the
express purposes of including in such Soliciting Materials.

         

        (d) The
Company shall obtain the consent of its Stockholders to enable the Closing to

a manner satisfactory to Parent), by such number of Stockholders as is required
by the terms of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code, any payment and/or
benefits that may, separately or in the aggregate, constitute an “excess
parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code (“Section 280G Payments”)
(which determination shall be made by the Company and shall be subject to review
and approval by Parent), such that all such payments and benefits shall not be
deemed to be Section 280G Payments (the “280G Approval”), and prior to
the Effective Time the Company shall deliver to Parent evidence satisfactory to
Parent that a Stockholder vote was solicited in conformance with
Section 280G and the regulations promulgated thereunder and that (x) such
requisite 280G Approval was obtained with respect to any Section 280G
Payment, or (y) that the 280G Approval was not obtained with respect to any
Section 280G Payment and as a consequence, that Section 280G Payment
shall not be made or provided, pursuant to the waivers of those payments and/or
benefits which were executed by the affected individuals prior to the
Stockholder vote.

of Directors of the Company shall not alter, modify, change or revoke its
unanimous approval of the Merger, this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby, including if required pursuant to Section 4.8(e), the 280G Approval, and
its unanimous recommendation to the Stockholders to vote in favor of the
principal terms of this Agreement, the Merger, the Certificate of Merger and the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Certificate of Merger and
pursuant to Section 4.8(e), the 280G
Approval.

         

        4.9 Merger
Notification. To the
extent applicable, as soon as may be reasonably practicable, the Company and
Parent (and any applicable Stockholder of the Company) shall make all filings,
notices, petitions, statements, registrations and submissions of information,
application or submission of other documents required by any Governmental Entity
in connection with the Merger and the transactions contemplated hereby,
including: (i) Notification and Report Forms with the FTC and DOJ as
required by the HSR Act and (ii) any filings required under U.S. or foreign
laws or regulations applicable to mergers or acquisitions involving foreign
parties.  Each of Parent and the Company shall cause all documents
that it is responsible for filing with any Governmental Entity under this Section 4.9 to comply in all
material respects with applicable law.

         

        (a) The
Company and Parent (and/or any applicable Stockholder of the Company) each shall
promptly (a) supply the others with any information which reasonably may be
required in order to effectuate the filings contemplated by Section 0 and (b) supply any
additional information which reasonably may be required by the competition or
merger control authorities of any other jurisdiction and which the parties may
reasonably deem appropriate.  Except where prohibited by applicable
law, the Company shall consult with Parent prior to taking a position with
respect to any such filings, shall permit Parent to review and discuss in
advance, and consider in good faith the views of Parent in connection with, any
analyses, appearances, presentations, memoranda, briefs, white papers, other
materials, arguments, opinions and proposals before making or submitting any of
the foregoing to any Governmental Entity in connection with any investigations
or proceedings in connection with this Agreement or the transactions
contemplated hereby, coordinate with Parent in preparing and providing such
information and promptly provide Parent (and its counsel) copies of all filings,
presentations and submissions (and a summary of oral presentations) made by the
Company with any Governmental Entity in connection with this Agreement and the
transactions contemplated hereby.  Parent shall have principal control
over the strategy for interacting with such Governmental Entities in connection
with the matters contained in this Section 4.9.

         

        (b) Each of
Parent and the Company shall notify the other promptly upon the receipt of
(i) any comments from any officials of any Governmental Entity in
connection with any filings made pursuant hereto and (ii) any request by
any officials of any Governmental Entity for amendments or supplements to any
filings made pursuant to, or information provided to comply in all materials
respect with, applicable law.  Whenever any event occurs that is
required to be set forth in an amendment or supplement to any filing made
pursuant to Section 0, Parent or the Company,
as the case may be, will promptly inform the other of such occurrence and
cooperate in filing with the applicable Governmental Entity such amendment or
supplement.

         

        4.10 Consents.  The
Company shall use its best efforts to obtain all necessary consents, waivers and
approvals of any parties to any Contract, and give all necessary notices to such
parties, as are required thereunder in connection with the Merger or for any
such Contracts to remain in full force and effect, all of which are required to
be listed in Section 2.5 of the Disclosure
Schedule, so as to preserve all rights of, and benefits to, the Company under
such Contract from and after the Effective Time.  Such consents,
waivers, approvals and notices shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to
Parent.  In the event that the other parties to any such Contract,
including any lessor or licensor of any Leased Real Property, conditions its
grant of a consent, waiver, approval (including by threatening to exercise a
“recapture” or other termination right) upon the payment of a consent fee,
“profit sharing” payment or other consideration, including increased rent
payments or other payments under the Contract, unless otherwise agreed to by
Parent and the Company, the Company shall be responsible for making all payments
required to obtain such consent, waiver or approval, and Parent shall be

the Company or use a “significant portion” of the Company’s “historic business
assets” in a business following the Merger, within the meanings of Section

further that nothing in this Agreement shall limit the liability of any
Person (including any Stockholder) for any such Losses if such Person
perpetrated such fraud, gross negligence or willful
misconduct.

        (c) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, the parties hereto agree and acknowledge that
any Indemnified Party may bring a claim for indemnification for any Loss under
this Article VI notwithstanding the fact
that such Indemnified Party had knowledge of the breach, event or circumstance
giving rise to such Loss prior to the Closing, except where Parent has waived a
condition to Closing.

         

        (d) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, nothing shall prohibit Parent from seeking and
obtaining recourse against the Stockholders, or any of them, in the event that
Parent issues more than the Merger Consideration to which the Stockholders, or
any of them, are entitled pursuant to Article I of this
Agreement.

         

        ARTICLE VII


         

        TERMINATION,
AMENDMENT AND WAIVER

         

        7.1 Termination. 
Subject to Section 7.2 hereof, this Agreement
may be terminated and the Merger abandoned at any time prior to the
Closing:

         

        (a) by mutual
agreement of the Company and Parent;

         

        (b) by Parent
if the Stockholder Written Consents for each Company Stockholder shall have not
been obtained by the Company and delivered to the Parent within 24 hours after
the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company;

         

        (c) by Parent
or the Company if the Closing Date shall not have occurred by May 29, 2009;
provided, however, that
the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 7.1(b) shall not be
available to any party whose action or failure to act has been a principal cause
of or resulted in the failure of the Merger to occur on or before such date and
such action or failure to act constitutes breach of this Agreement;

         

        (d) by Parent
if any Governmental Entity shall have enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or
entered any statute, rule, regulation, executive order, decree, injunction,
order or other legal restraint which is in effect and which has the effect of
making the Merger illegal;

         

        (e) by Parent
if there shall be any action taken, or any statute, rule, regulation or order
enacted, promulgated or issued or deemed applicable to the Merger by any
Governmental Entity, which would constitute an Action of
Divestiture;

         

        
          
            
            

          

          
            -36-

            
              

            

          

          
            
            

          

        

         

        
          CONFIDENTIAL

           

        

        (f) by Parent
if it is not in material breach of its obligations under this Agreement and
there has been a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement
of the Company contained in this Agreement such that the conditions set forth in
Section 5.2(a) or Section 5.2(b) hereof would not be
satisfied and such breach has not been cured within twenty (20) calendar days
after written notice thereof to the Company; provided, however, that no
cure period shall be required for a breach which by its nature cannot be cured;
or

         

        (g) by the
Company if the Company is not in material breach of its obligations under this
Agreement and there has been a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant
or agreement of Parent contained in this Agreement such that the conditions set
forth in Section 5.3(a) or Section 5.3(c) hereof would not be
satisfied and such breach has not been cured within twenty (20) calendar days
after written notice thereof to Parent; provided, however, that no
cure period shall be required for a breach which by its nature cannot be
cured.

         

        7.2 Effect
of Termination. 
In the event of termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 7.1 hereof, this Agreement
shall forthwith become void and there shall be no liability or obligation on the
part of Parent, the Company, or its respective officers, directors or
Stockholders, if applicable; provided, however, that each
party hereto and each Person shall remain liable for any breaches of this
Agreement prior to its termination; and provided further, however, that the provisions
of Sections  4.3 and 4.4 hereof, Article VIII hereof
and this Section 7.2 shall remain in full
force and effect and survive any termination of this Agreement pursuant to the
terms of this Article VII.  For
purposes of clarity, nothing in Article VI shall
limit the liability of the Company for any breach of any representation,
warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement or in any certificates or other
instruments delivered pursuant to this Agreement in the event of termination of
this Agreement.

         

        7.3 Amendment. 
This Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto at any time by execution of
an instrument in writing signed on behalf of the party against whom enforcement
is sought.

         

        7.4 Extension;
Waiver. 
At any time prior to the Closing, Parent, on the one hand, and the Company, on
the other hand, may, to the extent legally allowed, (i) extend the time for
the performance of any of the obligations of the other party hereto,
(ii) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties made to
such party contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto, and
(iii) waive compliance with any of the covenants, agreements or conditions
for the benefit of such party contained herein. Any agreement on the part of a
party hereto to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in
an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party.

        The words
“include,” “includes” and “including” when used herein shall be deemed in each
case to be followed by the words “without limitation.”  The table of
contents and headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes
only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this
Agreement.

         

        8.2 Counterparts. 
This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall
be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or
more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the
other party, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same
counterpart.

         

        8.3 Entire
Agreement; Assignment. 
This Agreement, the Exhibits hereto, the Disclosure Schedule, the Nondisclosure
Agreement and the documents and instruments and other agreements among the
parties hereto referenced herein: (i) constitute the entire agreement among
the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior
agreements and understandings both written and oral, among the parties with
respect to the subject matter hereof; (ii) are not intended to confer upon
any other person any rights or remedies hereunder; and (iii) shall not be
assigned by operation of law or otherwise, except that Parent may, upon two (2)
Business Days’ prior written notice to the Company assign its rights and
delegate its obligations hereunder to a wholly-owned subsidiary as long as
Parent remains primarily liable for all of Parent’s obligations hereunder and
such assignment and/or delegation does not adversely affect the characterization
of the Merger as a statutory merger of the Company with and into the Parent for
federal income tax purposes.

          CONFIDENTIAL

           

        

        8.4 Severability. 
In the event that any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof
becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void
or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force
and effect and the application of such provision to other persons or
circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the
parties hereto.  The parties further agree to replace such void or
unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision
that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other
purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

         

        8.5 Other
Remedies. 
Any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party will be deemed
cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by
law or equity upon such party, and the exercise by a party of any one remedy
will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.  Other than as set
forth above, the indemnification provisions of Article VI, including Section 6.3, are the sole and exclusive
remedy of a party hereto or any other person entitled to indemnification
hereunder with respect to any claim made under this Agreement.

         

        8.6 No
Third Party Beneficiaries. 
This Agreement, the Exhibits and Schedules hereto, the Disclosure Schedule, and
the documents and instruments and other agreements among the parties hereto
referenced herein are not intended to, and shall not, confer upon any other
person any rights or remedies hereunder, nor create any right, claim or remedy
of any nature whatsoever, including, but not limited to, any rights of
employment for any specified period and/or any employee benefits in favor of any
Person, union, association, Continuing Employee, Key Employee, Employer, other
employee or former employee, contractor or other entity, other than the parties
hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

         

        8.7 Governing
Law; Exclusive Jurisdiction. 
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of
the State of Delaware, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under
applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof.  Each of the
parties hereto irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of
any state court within Fairfax County, Virginia and the Federal court in
Alexandria, Virginia , in connection with any matter based upon or arising out
of this Agreement or the matters contemplated herein, agrees that process may be
served upon them in any manner authorized by the laws of the Commonwealth of
Virginia for such persons and waives and covenants not to assert or plead any
objection which they might otherwise have to such jurisdiction, venue and such
process.

         

        8.8 Rules
of Construction. 
The parties hereto agree that they have been represented by counsel during the
negotiation and execution of this Agreement and, therefor, waive the application
of any law, regulation, holding or rule of construction providing that
ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the
party drafting such agreement or document.

         

        8.9 Waiver
of Jury Trial. 
EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY
AND ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, OR
OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ACTIONS OF ANY
PARTY HERETO IN NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT
HEREOF.
