 2.5.3

 (a) Upon delivery to the
Buyer of the Base Financial Statements, the parties shall calculate as a dollar amount the difference between the gross revenues and the cost of goods sold of the Seller for its fiscal year ending June 30, 2004 (the “Base Year Gross
Profit”) and the percentage of total revenues of the Seller for such fiscal year represented by the Base Year Gross Profit (the “Base Year Gross Margin”). 
  
 (b) Within 90 days after January 31, 2006, the Buyer shall calculate the difference between the gross revenues and the cost
of goods sold of the Buyer’s Rochester Clothing Division for its 2006 fiscal year (the “2006 Gross Profit”) and the percentage of total revenues of the Buyer’s Rochester Clothing Division for such fiscal year represented by the
2006 Gross Profit (the “2006 Gross Margin”). Seller shall be entitled to an earn-out payment in an amount equal to 60% of the amount by which the 2006 Gross Profit exceeds the Base Year Gross Profit up to a maximum earn-out payment of
$1,333,333 with respect to such period; provided, however, that no earn-out payment shall be due in the event that the 2006 Gross Margin is less than the difference between (i) the Base Year Gross Margin less (ii) 2.0%. 
  
 (c) Within 90 days after January 31, 2007, the Buyer shall calculate the
difference between the gross revenues and the cost of goods sold of the Buyer’s Rochester Clothing Division for its 2007 fiscal year (the “2007 Gross Profit”) and the percentage of total revenues of the Buyer’s Rochester Clothing
Division for such fiscal year represented by the 2007 Gross Profit (the “2007 Gross Margin”). Seller shall be entitled to an earn-out payment in an amount equal to 60% of the amount by which the sum of the 2006 Gross Profit and the 2007
Gross Profit exceeds the sum of (A)(i) the Base Year Gross Profit, times (ii) two (2), plus (B) 
  

 9 








 $1,500,000, which 2007 contingent payment is being reduced by the amount of any earn-out payment made with respect to the
2006 fiscal year and up to a maximum earn-out payment of $2,666,667 for the 2006 and 2007 fiscal years; provided, however, that no earn-out payment shall be due with respect to the 2007 fiscal year in the event that the average of the 2006 Gross
Margin and the 2007 Gross Margin is less than the difference between (i) the Base Year Gross Margin less (ii) 2.0%. 
  
 (d) Within 90 days after January 31, 2008, the Buyer shall calculate the difference between the gross revenues and the cost of goods sold of the
Buyer’s Rochester Clothing Division for its 2008 fiscal year (the “2008 Gross Profit”) and the percentage of total revenues of the Buyer’s Rochester Clothing Division for such fiscal year represented by the 2008 Gross Profit (the
“2008 Gross Margin”). Seller shall be entitled to an earn-out payment in an amount equal to 60% of the amount by which the sum of the 2006 Gross Profit, the 2007 Gross Profit and the 2008 Gross profit exceeds the sum of (A)(i) the Base
Year Gross Profit, times (ii) three (3), plus (B) $3,000,000, which 2008 contingent payment is being reduced by the total amount of any earn-out payments made with respect to the 2006 fiscal year and the 2007 fiscal year and up to a maximum earn-out
payment of $4,000,000 for the 2006, 2007 and 2008 fiscal years; provided, however, that no earn-out payment shall be due with respect to the 2008 fiscal year in the event that the average of the 2006 Gross Margin, the 2007 Gross Margin and the 2008
Gross Margin is less than the difference between (i) the Base Year Gross Margin less (ii) 2.0%. 
  
 (e) In making the foregoing calculations, the following principles shall apply: (i) cost of goods sold shall be calculated to include as an expense any
license fee or royalty cost attributable to the George Foreman clothing line; and (ii) gross margin shall otherwise be calculated in accordance with GAAP consistent with the principles utilized by Seller prior to Closing. 
  
 (f) In the event that for any reason one or more of the Existing Stores is
not transferred to Buyer at Closing, and Buyer nevertheless determines in its sole discretion, to go forward with the Closing, and the transfer of such Existing Store(s) is not secured on or before the commencement of the Buyer’s fiscal year
commencing February 1, 2005, the parties shall reduce the Base Year Gross Margin and Base Year Gross Profit by the amounts attributable to such Existing Stores and the revenues and cost of goods sold attributable to such Existing Stores shall not
thereafter be utilized in calculating Buyer’s gross margin or gross profit regardless of whether such Existing Stores are ever transferred to the Buyer. 
  
 (g) Within 30 days after the end of each month during each fiscal year referenced above, Buyer shall deliver to Seller its calculation of gross profit
and gross margin for such month and year-to-date and within ninety days after the end of each such fiscal year its detailed calculation thereof for such fiscal year (an “Annual Calculation”), which reflects gross sales, returns and
allowances, net sales, the method of determining cost of goods sold, including beginning and ending inventory balances, purchases and discounts and, as to George Foreman merchandise, a detailed computation of any royalties, and will provide Seller
with access to and the opportunity to make copies of all books and supporting records (including privileged federal and state sales and income tax returns) on which such calculation was based within 15 days after Seller’s request. Within 30
days after Seller’s receipt of an Annual Calculation, Seller shall notify Buyer whether it accepts or disputes the accuracy thereof. If Seller accepts such Annual 
  

 10 








 Calculation or fails to notify Buyer of any dispute with respect thereto within the 30 day period, such Annual
Calculation shall be deemed to be final, conclusive and binding on Seller and Buyer for the applicable period (a “Final Annual Calculation”). If Seller disputes the accuracy of any Annual Calculation, Seller shall in such notice set forth
in reasonable detail those items that Seller believes are not fairly presented and the reasons for its opinion. The parties shall then meet and in good faith use their best efforts to try to resolve their disagreements over the disputed items. If
the parties resolve their disagreements over the disputed items in accordance with the foregoing procedure, the Buyer’s Annual Calculation, with those modifications to which the parties shall have agreed, shall be deemed to be the Final Annual
Calculation. If the parties have not resolved their disagreements over the disputed items on any Annual Calculation within 15 days after Seller’s notice of dispute, the parties, including any assignee of Buyer, shall irrevocably and forthwith
submit such dispute to arbitration for all purposes according to the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association for final determination, which arbitration shall be conducted by a partner associated with an independent accounting firm
located in San Francisco, California (“Accounting Arbitrator”) mutually agreed to by Seller and Buyer or selected as hereinafter provided, which arbitrator shall make a binding determination of those disputed items in accordance with this
Purchase Agreement as between Seller and Buyer and Buyer’s assignee. Such arbitration shall be conducted in San Francisco, California. In the event that the parties fail to agree upon the Accounting Arbitrator, either party may petition the
American Arbitration Association in San Francisco, California to select the Accounting Arbitrator. The Accounting Arbitrator will have 30 days from the date of referral (or such additional time as the Accounting Arbitrator may require or to allow
the parties to conduct discovery, which discovery the parties expressly agree is provided for in such arbitration proceedings) to render a decision with respect to the disputed items concerning any Annual Calculation, which decision shall be final
and binding upon Seller, Buyer and any assignee of Buyer (each of whom irrevocably agrees to be bound by such arbitration) on a joint and several basis. Judgment on any such award or decision may be entered in and enforced by any court of competent
jurisdiction. The Annual Calculation, with any modifications determined by the Accounting Arbitrator, shall be deemed to be the Final Annual Calculation. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Arbitrator engaged pursuant to this Section 2.5.3 shall
be borne 50% by Seller and 50% by Buyer. If any Final Annual Calculation indicates that Seller is due any payment of any Contingent Purchase Price, then Buyer shall deliver such Contingent Purchase Price to Seller in cash not later than ten (10)
business days after the date of completion of the Final Annual Calculation, together with interest on the unpaid amount at the prime rate of Bank of America from time to time in effect. No change to the Buyer’s fiscal year will negatively

 2.6 CONSENT OF THIRD PARTIES.  
  
 2.6.1 OBTAINING CONSENTS. Immediately upon the execution hereof, Seller shall use all reasonable efforts to obtain
all consents and approvals required to be obtained from any third party in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby without condition or if with conditions such conditions being satisfactory to Buyer and such other waiver, approval,
consent or amendment Buyer may require and without any adverse economic impact or burden to which Buyer in its discretion may object from that previously experienced by Seller (collectively, “Consents”). Buyer shall use all reasonable
effort to cooperate with Seller in such endeavor. This Purchase Agreement does not constitute an agreement to assign or transfer any governmental approval, instrument, contract, Lease, permit or other agreement or arrangement or any claim, right or
benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom if an assignment or transfer or an attempt to make such an assignment or transfer without the consent of a third party would constitute a breach or violation thereof or affect adversely the rights of
the Buyer or Seller thereunder. 
  
 2.6.2 ALTERNATIVE
ARRANGEMENTS. In the event any such consent or approval is not obtained on or prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall continue to use all reasonable efforts to obtain any such approval or consent after the Closing Date until such time as such
consent or approval has been obtained, and Seller will cooperate with the Buyer in any lawful and economically feasible arrangement to provide that the Buyer shall receive the interest of Seller, as the case may be, in the benefits under any such
instrument, contract, lease or permit or other agreement or arrangement, including performance by Seller, as the case may be, as agent, if economically feasible, provided that the Buyer shall undertake to pay or satisfy the corresponding liabilities
for the enjoyment of such benefit to the extent the Buyer would have been responsible therefor hereunder if such consent or approval had been obtained. In furtherance of the foregoing, Buyer and Seller agree, at the request of Buyer in its sole
discretion, to enter into a Merchandising and Administrative Services Agreement with respect to any Existing Store for which such consent is not obtained at or prior to the Closing. 
  
 2.6.3 EXTENSIONS OF CLOSING DATE. In the event that, on or prior to the original Closing Date, one or more Consents
of Lessors under the Leases (the “Lessor Consents”) has not been obtained, either Seller or Buyer shall have the unilateral right, by notice to the other, to extend the Closing Date to November 30, 2004 whereupon November 30, 2004 shall be
deemed to have been substituted for October 31, 2004 in Section 2.8 of this Purchase Agreement. In the event that, on or prior to the such extended Closing Date, one or more of the Lessor Consents has not been obtained, either Seller or Buyer shall
have the unilateral right, by notice to the other, to extend the Closing Date to December 31, 2004 whereupon December 31, 2004 shall be deemed to have been substituted for November 30, 2004 in Section 2.8 of this Purchase Agreement. 
  
 2.6.4 SPECIAL CLOSING NOTICE. In the event that neither party has
elected to extend the Closing Date or the Closing Date has been extended and no further extensions are available, either party may elect to terminate this Purchase Agreement on the 
  

 12 








 Closing Date pursuant to Section 11.13(c) thereof unless on or prior to the Closing Date (as the same may be extended
pursuant to the terms hereof) Buyer has notified Seller that it wishes to proceed with the Closing under the terms of the “Special Closing Conditions” set forth below (the “Special Closing Notice”). Buyer may elect to give such
notice at any time and in the event that Buyer has given such notice no further extensions of the Closing Date shall be available for either party. 
  
 2.6.5 SPECIAL CLOSING CONDITIONS. In the event that the Buyer timely gives the Seller the Special Closing Notice, the Closing shall proceed on the
then current Closing Date notwithstanding the fact that not all of the Lessor Consents have been obtained subject to the following conditions: 
  
 (a) Buyer shall notify Seller in the Special Closing Notice of any Lease that Buyer wishes to be assigned to Buyer at the Closing notwithstanding that no
Lessor Consent has been obtained. Each such Lease shall be assigned to Buyer at the Closing as a part of the Purchased Assets and Buyer shall assume all of Seller’s obligations under any such Lease and defend at its cost and indemnify Seller
pursuant to the terms of Sections 7.8 hereof for all liabilities under any such Lease, including, without limitation, claims that any such Lease has been assigned to Buyer in violation of the terms thereof (except for claims as to which Seller is
required to indemnify Buyer pursuant to the terms of Section 7.1 hereof with respect to a violation of a representation or warranty hereunder). 
  
 (b) At Buyer’s election (given in the Special Closing Notice), Buyer may choose to delay the assignment of any such Lease until such time as a
Lessor Consent with respect thereto is obtained and instead Buyer and Seller shall enter into a Merchandising and Administrative Services Agreement with respect to each Existing Store operated under any such Lease. If Buyer so elects, the Closing
shall proceed, the parties shall continue to use their respective commercially reasonable best efforts to obtain any such Lessor Consent and the Buyer shall defend at its cost and indemnify Seller pursuant to the terms of Sections 7.8 of the
Purchase Agreement for all liabilities under any such Lease, including, without limitation, claims that any such Lease has been assigned to Buyer in violation of the terms thereof (except for claims as to which Seller is required to indemnify Buyer
pursuant to the terms of Section 7.1 of the Purchase Agreement with respect to a violation of a representation or warranty under the Purchase Agreement). 
  
 (c) If Buyer delivers a Special Closing Notice, Buyer shall either accept the assignment of each Lease pursuant to the foregoing or enter into a
Merchandising and Administrative Services Agreement with respect thereto. 
  
 (d) The terms of Seller’s non-competition obligations and non-disclosure and other obligations under Section 5.5, 5.6, 5.9 and 5.10 hereof and the terms of the employee’s non-competition obligations under
each of the Employment Agreements shall be deemed not to apply with respect to the operations of any Existing Store that Buyer is managing pursuant to a Merchandising and Administrative Services Agreement provided that Seller is in compliance with
the terms of such Merchandising and Administrative Services Agreement.

defined benefit pension plan previously maintained for its tailors in San Francisco. Seller has agreed to use all commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate a final settlement and payment of such liability at or prior to the Closing for an amount
of not greater than $489,000. Buyer has agreed to reimburse Seller for the cost of such settlement in an amount not to exceed the lesser of 50% of the amount required to settle such claim or $150,000 in the event that such liability can be finally
settled on or prior to the Closing Date. For the avoidance of doubt, such liability shall in no event be considered an Assumed Liability. 
  
 2.8 CLOSING. The closing of the purchase and sale of the Purchased Assets (the “Closing”) shall be held at 10:00 A.M. at the offices of

 ARTICLE 7 – INDEMNIFICATION.

  
 7.1 INDEMNIFICATION OF BUYER. In addition to, and
not by way of limitation of, Buyer’s rights otherwise provided in this Purchase Agreement or in any other document delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, or under applicable law, and subject to the terms and
conditions of this Article 7, Seller agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Buyer and its subsidiaries and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and Affiliates (collectively, the “Buyer Group”) from and
against any loss, liability, damage or expense suffered, incurred or paid by any member of the Buyer Group after Closing: 
  
 (a) which would not have been suffered, incurred or paid if all the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of Seller in this Purchase
Agreement, the Related Agreements, or in any other instrument or document furnished to Buyer in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby had been (with respect to representations and warranties) true, complete and correct and had been
(with respect to covenants and agreements) fully performed and fulfilled; 
  
 (b) as a result of any claim, action or proceeding asserted or brought against any member of the Buyer Group or any of such member’s assets (including, without 
  

 29 








 limitation, the Purchased Assets) which arises, in whole or in part, out of or in connection with Seller’s conduct
of its business before or after the Closing, including, without limitation, any claim, action or proceeding relating to Seller’s failure to perform under any agreement or commitment, the termination of any employee, agent, dealer or distributor
or any breach of warranty (including, without limitation, any claim, action or proceeding arising at any time whatsoever in connection with the purchase or use of any Purchased Asset sold by Seller to Buyer hereunder but excluding the Assumed
Liabilities); 
  
 (c) as a result of any claim, action or
proceeding asserted against any member of the Buyer Group or any of such member’s assets with respect to any liability or alleged liability of Seller not specifically assumed by Buyer under this Purchase Agreement; 
  
 (d) as a result of any claim, action or proceeding asserted or brought
against any member of the Buyer Group or any of such member’s assets which arises out of, or in connection with, Seller’s failure to pay, promptly and when due, any amount owing, in whole or in part, whether before or after the Closing,
with respect to Seller’s business, whether due or to become due, accrued or contingent, known or unknown (other than the Assumed Liabilities) 
  
 (e) as a result of any claim, action or proceeding asserted or brought against any member of the Buyer Group or any of such member’s assets which
arises out of or in connection with Seller’s failure to pay, promptly and when due, any Tax, fee or other charge which shall become due or shall have accrued (i) on account of Seller’s use, acquisition, ownership or sale of any of the
Purchased Assets or (ii) on account of the transactions contemplated hereby; and 
  
 (f) for all costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by any member of the Buyer Group in connection with any action, proceeding, claim, assessment or judgment
incident to any of the foregoing matters. 
  
 7.2 BENEFIT OF
BUYER GROUP. With respect to any member of the Buyer Group other than Buyer, Seller acknowledges and agrees that Buyer is contracting on its own behalf and for such member and Buyer shall obtain and hold the rights and benefits provided for in
this Article 7 in trust for and on behalf of such member. 
  
 7.3
NOTICE OF CLAIM. In seeking to collect the amount of any claim that Buyer is entitled to indemnification hereunder, Buyer shall first give Seller written notice of such claim. Such notice shall contain a brief summary of the basis for the
claim. If Seller does not dispute the basis or amount of any such claim within 30 days of receiving written notice thereof, Buyer shall have the right promptly to recover indemnity as and to the extent provided herein. If Seller disagree with the
basis of such claim or the amount of damages caused thereby (“Dispute”), then within 30 days of receiving written notice thereof, they shall give notice to Buyer of such disagreement (the “Dispute Notice”), specifying the reasons
for such disagreement, and, in that case, Buyer shall have no right to recover indemnity hereunder until such time, if at all, as (a) an arbitrator(s) selected pursuant to Section 11.2 hereof issues a final award or decision specifying the amount of
Buyer’s recovery, in which case Buyer shall have the right promptly to recover the amount so specified (subject to the limitations contained in this Article 7) or (b) Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other, agree in writing to the
amount 
  

 30 








 of Buyer’s recovery. The date upon which either (a) or (b) occurs with respect to any claim by Buyer under this
Article 7 shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Buyer Claim Establishment Date,” and any amount that Buyer is entitled to recover as indemnity hereunder shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Buyer Claim Amount.” 

 
 7.4 METHOD OF RECOVERY. Within twenty (20) calendar days after the
Buyer Claim Establishment Date, Seller shall pay to Buyer a cash amount equal to the Buyer Claim Amount. In the event that Buyer is not paid the full Buyer Claim Amount within twenty (20) calendar days of the Buyer Claim Establishment Date, in
addition to whatever other remedies it may have, Buyer shall be entitled until such Buyer Claim Amount is paid in full (a) to offset against amounts otherwise due Seller, including, without limitation, amounts due as part of the Contingent Purchase
Price. Any payment made to Buyer by the Seller pursuant to this Article 7 shall constitute a reduction in the Purchase Price hereunder. 
  
 7.5 SETTLEMENT OF THIRD PARTY CLAIMS. Buyer agrees to notify Seller of any action by a third party which, in the opinion of Buyer, is reasonably
likely to give rise to a claim for indemnification hereunder (a “Buyer Third Party Action”). Seller may, at its election and at its sole cost and expense, participate in the defense of a Buyer Third Party Action and employ counsel separate
from the counsel employed by Buyer. To the extent that Seller shall acknowledge its obligations to indemnify Buyer for any Buyer Third Party Action, Seller shall have the right to conduct and control, through counsel of its own choosing, any Buyer
Third Party Action, but Buyer may, at its election and at its sole cost and expense, participate in the defense of any such Buyer Third Party Action and employ counsel separate from the counsel employed by Seller, it being understood that Seller
shall have acknowledged its obligation to indemnify Buyer and shall control such defense; provided, however, that if Seller shall fail to diligently defend any such Buyer Third Party Action, or is prohibited by a conflict of interest
from defending such Buyer Third Party Action, then Buyer may, through counsel of its own choosing, defend such Buyer Third Party Action and settle such Buyer Third Party Action, and recover from Seller the amount of such settlement or of any
judgment and the full costs and expenses of such defense. Buyer and Seller agree that they will not settle any Buyer Third Party Action without the consent of the other, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Buyer further agrees that if
Seller wishes to enter into a settlement with respect to a Buyer Third Party Action on terms reasonably acceptable to Buyer, Buyer will cooperate in such settlement, provided that Seller directly pays the full amount of such settlement. 

 
 7.6 SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Notwithstanding any
investigation conducted before or after the Closing, and notwithstanding any knowledge or notice of any fact or circumstance which either Buyer or Seller may have as the result of such investigation or otherwise, Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller,
on the other, shall each be entitled to rely upon the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the other in this Purchase Agreement. All representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made by any party in this Purchase
Agreement or any certificate or other writing delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall survive the Closing and any investigation at any time made by or on behalf of any other party, subject to the following: 
  
 (a) except as set forth in this Section 7.6, any claims by Buyer for
indemnification for a breach of representations and warranties must be made within 18 months of Closing (except with respect to claims under Section 3.12.1 which claims must be made within six months after the Closing); and 
  

 31 








 (b) there shall be no time limit with respect to the obligations of Seller to indemnify members of the
Buyer Group for claims arising out of or relating to a breach of Sections 3.4 (Authority to Execute and Perform), 3.5 (Title; Liens), 3.8 (Tax Matters), 3.18 (Benefit Plans) or 3.26 (Tax Effects). 
  
 7.7 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. Except for any liability arising
out of or relating to (i) a breach of Sections 3.4 (Authority to Execute and Perform), 3.5 (Title; Liens), 3.8 (Tax Matters), 3.18 (Benefit Plans) or 3.26 (Tax Effects), (ii) intentional or fraudulent misrepresentations or actions by Seller, or
(iii) a breach of a covenant or agreement by Seller which liability shall not be limited by this Section 7.8, Buyer may not assert a claim hereunder unless and until the aggregate Buyer Claim Amount of all claims equals or exceeds $250,000 in which
event Buyer may assert each such claim (and each claim accruing thereafter) regardless of the Buyer Claim Amount thereof. 
  
 7.8 INDEMNIFICATION OF SELLER. In addition to, and not by way of limitation of, Seller’s rights otherwise provided in this Purchase
Agreement or in any other document delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, or under applicable law, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Article 7, Buyer agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Seller and
its subsidiaries and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and Affiliates (collectively, the “Seller Group”) from and against any loss, liability, damage or expense suffered, incurred or paid by any member of the
Seller Group after Closing: 
  
 (a) which would not have been
suffered, incurred or paid if all the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of Buyer in this Purchase Agreement, the Related Agreements, or in any other instrument or document furnished to Seller in connection with the transactions
contemplated hereby had been (with respect to representations and warranties) true, complete and correct and had been (with respect to covenants and agreements) fully performed and fulfilled; 
  
 (b) as a result of any claim, action or proceeding asserted or brought
against any member of the Seller Group or any of such member’s assets (including, without limitation, the Purchased Assets) which arises, in whole or in part, out of or in connection with Buyer’s conduct of the Business after the Closing,
including, without limitation, any claim, action or proceeding relating to Buyer’s failure to perform under any agreement or commitment, the termination of any employee, agent, dealer or distributor or any breach of warranty (including, without
limitation, any claim, action or proceeding arising at any time whatsoever in connection with the purchase or use of any Purchased Asset sold by Seller to Buyer hereunder); 
  
 (c) as a result of any claim, action or proceeding asserted against any member of the Seller Group or any of such
member’s assets with respect to any liability or alleged liability of Seller specifically assumed by Buyer under this Purchase Agreement; 
  

 32 








 (d) as a result of any claim, action or proceeding asserted or brought against any member of the Seller
Group or any of such member’s assets which arises out of, or in connection with, Buyer’s failure to pay, promptly and when due, any amount owing, in whole or in part accruing after the Closing with respect to the Business, whether due or
to become due, accrued or contingent, known or unknown and including the Assumed Liabilities; 
  
 (e) as a result of any claim, action or proceeding asserted or brought against any member of the Seller Group or any of such member’s assets which arises out of or in connection with Buyer’s failure to pay,
promptly and when due, any Tax, fee or other charge which shall become due or shall accrue after the Closing on account of Buyer’s ownership or sale of any of the Purchased Assets; and 
  
 (f) for all costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys’ fees) incurred by any member of the Seller Group in connection with any action, proceeding, claim, assessment or judgment incident to any of the foregoing matters. 
  
 7.10 BENEFIT OF SELLER GROUP. With respect to any member of the Seller Group other than Seller, Buyer acknowledges
and agrees that Seller is contracting on its own behalf and for such member and Seller shall obtain and hold the rights and benefits provided for in this Article 7 in trust for and on behalf of such member. 
  
 7.11 NOTICE OF CLAIM. In seeking to collect the amount of any claim
that Seller is entitled to indemnification hereunder, Seller shall first give Buyer written notice of such claim. Such notice shall contain a brief summary of the basis for the claim. If Buyer does not dispute the basis or amount of any such claim
within 30 days of receiving written notice thereof, Seller shall have the right promptly to recover indemnity as and to the extent provided herein. If Buyer disagrees with the basis of such claim or the amount of damages caused thereby, then within
30 days of receiving written notice thereof, they shall give notice to Seller of such disagreement, specifying the reasons for such disagreement, and, in that case, Seller shall have no right to recover indemnity hereunder until such time, if at
all, as (a) an arbitrator(s) selected pursuant to Section 11.2 hereof issues a final award or decision specifying the amount of Seller’s recovery, in which case Seller shall have the right promptly to recover the amount so specified (subject to
the limitations contained in this Article 7) or (b) Seller, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other, agree in writing to the amount of Seller’s recovery. The date upon which either (a) or (b) occurs with respect to any claim by Seller under
this Article 7 shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Seller Claim Establishment Date,” and any amount that Seller is entitled to recover as indemnity hereunder shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Seller Claim Amount.”

  
 7.12 METHOD OF RECOVERY. Within ten (10) calendar days
after the Seller Claim Establishment Date, Buyer shall pay to Seller a cash amount equal to the Seller Claim Amount. In the event that Seller is not paid the full Seller Claim Amount within ten (10) calendar days of the Seller Claim Establishment
Date, in addition to whatever other remedies it may have, Seller shall be entitled until such Seller Claim Amount is paid in full to offset against such Seller Claim Amount amounts otherwise due Buyer by Seller hereunder. 
  
 7.13 SETTLEMENT OF THIRD PARTY CLAIMS. Seller agrees to notify Buyer
of any action by a third party which, in the opinion of Seller, is reasonably likely to give rise to a 
  

 33 








 claim for indemnification hereunder (a “Seller Third Party Action”). Seller may, at its election and at its
sole cost and expense, participate in the defense of a Seller Third Party Action and employ counsel separate from the counsel employed by Seller. To the extent that Buyer shall acknowledge its obligations to indemnify Seller for any Seller Third
Party Action, Buyer shall have the right to conduct and control, through counsel of its own choosing, any Seller Third Party Action, but Seller may, at its election and at its sole cost and expense, participate in the defense of any such Seller
Third Party Action and employ counsel separate from the counsel employed by Buyer, it being understood that Buyer shall have acknowledged its obligation to indemnify Seller and shall control such defense; provided, however, that if
Buyer shall fail to diligently defend any such Seller Third Party Action, or is prohibited by a conflict of interest from defending such Seller Third Party Action, then Seller may, through counsel of its own choosing, defend such Seller Third Party
Action and settle such Seller Third Party Action, and recover from Buyer the amount of such settlement or of any judgment and the full costs and expenses of such defense. Buyer and Seller agree that they will not settle any Seller Third Party Action
without the consent of the other, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Seller further agrees that if Buyer wishes to enter into a settlement with respect to a Seller Third Party Action on terms reasonably acceptable to Buyer, Seller
will cooperate in such settlement, provided that Buyer directly pays the full amount of such settlement. 
  
 7.15 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND THRESHOLD. Any claims by Seller for indemnification for a breach of representations and warranties by Buyer must
be made within three years of Closing, except that there shall be no time limit with respect to the obligations of Buyer to indemnify Seller for claims arising out of or relating to (i) a breach of Section 4.2 (Authority to Execute and Perform);
(ii) intentional or fraudulent misrepresentations or actions by Buyer; or (iii) a breach of a covenant or agreement by Buyer (collectively, clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) are referred to as the “Excluded Obligations”). Buyer’s
obligations to indemnify Seller hereunder other than for the Excluded Obligations shall be limited to aggregate amount of the Purchase Price paid by Buyer to Seller and the Stockholders hereunder.

 ARTICLE 10 - POST-CLOSING EVENTS 
  
 10.1 SELLER WORKING CAPITAL REVIEW. 
  
 (a) Within 90 days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall deliver to Seller an adjusted Closing Statement (the “Adjusted
Closing Statement”). In preparing the Adjusted Closing Statement, Buyer shall determine Seller Working Capital based upon GAAP consistent with the principles applied in the preparation of the audited balance sheet of Seller as at the Closing
Date. The Adjusted Closing Statement shall be accompanied by such documentation as Buyer believes supports such proposed adjustments to the calculation of Seller Working Capital as of the Closing Date. If Seller proposes no adjustments to the
Closing Statement, the Closing Statement shall be deemed to be final, conclusive and binding upon the parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Adjusted Closing Statement may omit footnotes and related disclosures normally included in audited
balance sheets prepared in accordance with GAAP and shall include such items from Seller Working Capital as are set forth in the definition of Seller Working Capital (including a deduction for distributions to cover s-corp Taxes for the operating
income of the Seller for the period prior to the Closing but not including any Taxes due with respect to the Purchase Price). At Closing, Seller shall estimate in good faith the amount of such s-corp distributions (based on the highest applicable
marginal rate) and shall provide Buyer with a calculation of such estimate and shall deduct the amount thereof from the Purchased Assets and place it in escrow with Seller’s attorney’s MacInnis, Donner & Koplowitz in their
client’s funds 
  

 37 








 account. Seller’s tax accounting firm, Eichstaedt & Devereaux, LLP, shall calculate the actual amount to be
distributed to pay such s-corp Taxes in the ordinary course following the Closing which calculation shall be binding on the parties hereto provided it is reasonable and in good faith. If the estimated amount placed into escrow was too high, the
amount of such excess shall be paid to the Buyer following the making of such distribution and if the amount thereof was too low the Buyer shall promptly remit the difference to the Seller. 
  
 (b) Within 30 days after its receipt of the Adjusted Closing Statement,
Seller shall notify Buyer in writing whether it accepts or disputes the accuracy of the Adjusted Closing Statement. If Seller accepts the Adjusted Closing Statement or fails to notify Buyer in writing of any dispute with respect thereto within such
30-day period, the Adjusted Closing Statement shall be deemed to be final, conclusive and binding on Seller and Buyer (the “Final Statement”). If Seller disputes the accuracy of the Adjusted Closing Statement, it shall in such written
notice set forth in reasonable detail those items that Seller believes are not fairly presented and the reasons for its opinion. The parties shall then meet and in good faith use their best efforts to try to resolve their disagreements over the
disputed items. If the parties resolve their disagreements over the disputed items in accordance with the foregoing procedure, the Closing Statement, with those modifications to which the parties shall have agreed, shall be deemed to be the Final
Statement. If the parties have not resolved their disagreements over the disputed items on the Closing Statement within 30 days after Seller’s notice of dispute, the parties shall forthwith jointly request an Accounting Arbitrator mutually
agreed to by Seller and Buyer to make a binding determination of those disputed items in accordance with this Purchase Agreement. The Accounting Arbitrator will have 30 days from the date of referral to render its decision with respect to the
disputed items concerning the Closing Statement, which decision shall be final and binding upon Seller and Buyer and enforceable as an arbitration award pursuant to the Massachusetts Uniform Arbitration Act for Commercial Disputes, Mass. Gem. Laws
Ann. ch. 251 or the Federal Arbitration Act. The Closing Statement, with those modifications determined by the Accounting Arbitrator, shall be deemed to be the Final Statement. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Arbitrator engaged pursuant to
this Section 2.5.2 shall be borne 50% by Seller and 50% by Buyer. 
  
 (c) If the Final Statement indicates that the Seller Working Capital as of the Closing is less than the amount required to be in existence pursuant to Schedule 8.12 as of the Closing Date, then Seller shall be obligated to promptly pay to
the Buyer cash in an amount equal to the difference between the amount by which such required amount exceeds the Seller Working Capital set forth in the Final Statement (such net amount, the “Working Capital Shortfall”). In the event that
Buyer is not paid the full Working Capital Shortfall within ten (10) calendar days of the date on which the Final Statement is determined, in addition to whatever other remedies it may have, Buyer shall be entitled until such Working Capital
Shortfall is paid in full (a) to offset against amounts otherwise due Seller, including, without limitation, amounts due as part of the Contingent Purchase Price. Any payment made to Buyer by the Seller pursuant to this Article 10 shall constitute a
reduction in the Purchase Price hereunder. 
  
 10.2 PURCHASE
PRICE ALLOCATION. Buyer and Seller shall use their reasonable best efforts to agree on how the Purchase Price, the Repaid Indebtedness and the Assumed Liabilities shall be allocated among the Purchased Assets. 
  

 38 








 ARTICLE 11 - MISCELLANEOUS. 
  
 11.1 EXPENSES. Each party shall assume and bear, and shall indemnify and hold harmless the other from and against,
any and all expenses, Taxes, costs and fees incurred or assumed by such party arising out of or in connection with the negotiation, preparation or performance of this Purchase Agreement and the Related Agreements and the consummation by Seller of
the transactions contemplated hereby (including all expenses, costs, fees and disbursements of such party’s attorneys, consultants, investment bankers and other financial advisors, brokers and finders, and accountants), whether or not the
transaction contemplated hereby shall be consummated, unless the transaction is not consummated due to the other’s material breach of the Purchase Agreement, and if the transaction is consummated Seller shall pay same from the Cash Purchase
Price and not from the Seller Working Capital. 
  
 11.2
ARBITRATION. Except for (i) any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to the Contingent Purchase Price in Section 2.5.3 hereof (which is to be arbitrated as provided in Section 2.5.3(g) hereof), and (ii) any other dispute,
controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Purchase Agreement or any Related Agreement for which a party shall seek equitable relief, any other dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Purchase Agreement
including, without limitation, the breach, termination or invalidity thereof, shall be finally settled by arbitration according to the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitration shall be conducted in Boston,
Massachusetts (except as provided in Section 2.5). The parties, including any assignee of Buyer, hereby agree to irrevocably submit to arbitration in Boston, Massachusetts for all purposes with respect to such arbitration. Such arbitration shall be
conducted before a tribunal composed of one or more arbitrators as the parties to such arbitration shall mutually agree. The award or decision made by the arbitrator(s) shall be binding upon the parties to such arbitration; provided, however, the
parties hereto waive any claim to any damages in the nature of punitive, exemplary, or statutory damages in excess of compensatory damages, and the arbitrator(s) is/are specifically divested hereby of any power to award damages in the nature of
punitive, exemplary or statutory damages in excess of compensatory damages hereunder. Judgment upon any such award or decision may be entered in and enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction. Each party shall bear its own costs of such
arbitration except that the prevailing party in the arbitration, as determined by the arbitrator(s), shall recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees from the other party. 
  
 11.3 NOTICES. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given if
delivered by hand, sent by facsimile transmission with confirmation of transmission, sent via a reputable overnight courier service with confirmation of receipt requested, or mailed by registered or certified mail (postage prepaid and return receipt
requested) to the parties at the following addresses (or at such address for a party as shall be specified by like notice), and shall be deemed given on the date on which delivered by hand (in the case of facsimile transmission, on the date of

 11.4 PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENTS. Prior to Closing, except for announcements
or filings required by law, without the prior consent of the other party, neither party will make or permit any of its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees or agents to make any public disclosure with respect to this Purchase Agreement or the
transactions contemplated hereby or, except for information included in any such disclosure which has been disseminated to the public, generally to Seller or Buyer employees or to any third party; provided that Buyer may in its sole

Agreement or the transactions 
  

 40 








 contemplated hereby shall be developed and disclosed solely by Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties have
agreed to jointly release a statement to the press concerning the transactions contemplated hereby in the form of Schedule 11.4. Simultaneously with the release thereof, Seller intends to commence notifying its employees of the proposed transaction.

  
 11.5 AMENDMENT AND WAIVER. This Purchase Agreement may
be amended, and any provision hereof may be waived, only by a written instrument executed by all of the parties hereto. No modification, renewal, extension, waiver or termination of this Purchase Agreement or any of the provisions herein contained
shall be binding upon any party unless made in writing and signed by an authorized officer of each party hereto. Failure by any party to insist upon strict compliance with any of the terms, covenants or conditions hereof in a particular instance
shall not be deemed a waiver of such terms, covenants or conditions in any other instance. All rights and remedies hereunder are cumulative and are in addition to and not exclusive of any other rights and remedies available, at law, in equity, by
agreement or otherwise. 
  
 11.6 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This
Purchase Agreement and the Related Agreements contain the entire agreement among Seller, the Stockholders and Buyer respecting the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings between them concerning such subject
matter. 
  
 11.7 GOVERNING LAW. This Purchase Agreement
shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts without regard to its principles of conflicts of laws. 
  
 11.8 BINDING EFFECT; ASSIGNABILITY. This Purchase Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. This Purchase Agreement is not intended to confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto and members of the Buyer Group (and such parties’ and members’ respective
successors and assigns) any rights or remedies hereunder, except as otherwise expressly provided herein. Neither this Purchase Agreement nor any of the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be assigned or delegated, whether by
operation of law or otherwise, without the written consent of all parties hereto; provided, however, that the Buyer may assign its rights hereunder to a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Buyer without the consent of the Seller provided that such
assignee expressly assumes all of the obligations of Buyer hereunder and under the Related Agreements and that Buyer shall remain jointly and severally liable to Seller for all obligations of such assignee under this Agreement and any of the Related
Agreements. 
  
 11.9 COUNTERPARTS. This Purchase Agreement
may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement. 
  
 11.10 SCHEDULES. The schedules to this Purchase Agreement are a part of this Purchase Agreement as if set forth in full herein. All references
herein to Articles, Sections, schedules and Exhibits shall be deemed references to such parts of this Purchase Agreement. The parties acknowledge that the Seller has not yet been able to prepare or complete the Schedules. Seller shall complete the
Schedules and may submit amended Schedules on or before 
  

 41 








 September 30, 2004 and shall deliver same to Buyer for its review. Such Schedules shall thereupon constitute the
Schedules to this Agreement. The Seller may thereafter (but prior to the Closing) submit amended Schedules which, if any such amended Schedule discloses a material change or addition from the prior Schedule, shall permit the Buyer to terminate this
Agreement pursuant to Section 11.13(d) hereof. 
  
 11.11
VALIDITY. Any invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision of this Purchase Agreement shall be severable, and after any such severance, all other provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect.

reference purposes only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Purchase Agreement. The terms defined in this Purchase Agreement refer to the plural as well as the singular, unless the context otherwise requires. The
words “herein” and “hereof” and other words of similar import refer to this Purchase Agreement as a whole and not to any particular part of this Purchase Agreement. The words “include”, “includes” and
“including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation”. Unless the context in which used herein otherwise clearly requires, “or” has the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase
“and/or”. 
  
 11.13 TERMINATION. This Purchase
Agreement may be terminated or the transactions contemplated hereby may be abandoned at any time prior to the Closing Date: 
  
 (a) by the mutual written consent of Buyer, the Principal Shareholders and Seller; or 
  
 (b) by either Seller or Buyer if any Governmental Agency shall have issued an order, decree or ruling or taken any other
action which permanently restrains, enjoins or otherwise prohibits the Transactions and such order, decree, ruling or other action shall have become final and non-appealable; or 
  
 (c) by either Seller or Buyer if the transactions contemplated hereby shall not have been consummated by December 31, 2004
(the “End Date”), which End Date may be extended by a mutual written agreement between Buyer, Seller and the Principal Shareholders; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Purchase Agreement pursuant to this
Section 11.13 (c) 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 Closing to occur on or before such date and such action or failure to act constitutes a material
breach of this Purchase Agreement; or 
  
 (d) by Buyer at any
time if the results of the Due Diligence Review shall in any way be unsatisfactory to Buyer in its sole and absolute discretion; or 
  
 (e) by Buyer, upon a material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of the Seller set forth in this Purchase
Agreement; or 
  
 (f) by the Seller upon a material breach of any
representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of Buyer set forth in this Purchase Agreement. 
  

 42 








 11.14 EFFECT OF TERMINATION. In the event of the termination of this Purchase Agreement or
abandonment of the transactions contemplated hereby by either Seller, the Principal Shareholders or Buyer pursuant to the terms of this Purchase Agreement, written notice thereof shall forthwith be given to the non-terminating party or parties
specifying the provision hereof pursuant to which such termination of this Purchase Agreement or abandonment of such transactions is made. In the event of the termination of this Purchase Agreement pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.13, this
Purchase Agreement shall become void and have no effect, without any liability to any Person in respect hereof or of the transactions contemplated hereby on the part of any party hereto, or any of its directors, officers, employees, agents,
consultants, representatives, advisers, shareholders or Affiliates, except as specified in Section 11.1 and except for any liability resulting from such party’s breach of this Purchase Agreement.
