Section 2.05 [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED]



Section 2.06 Post-Closing Purchase Price Adjustment.Seller agrees that at 12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date, a computation of the applicable Purchased Assets and the
applicable Assumed Liabilities in the manner set forth below shall result in the Buyer having acquired Tangible Net Equity (as defined below) of no less than Seven Hundred Fifty-Eight Thousand Five Hundred Eighty-Five and 00/100 Dollars
($758,585.00) (the Net Equity Floor), and Net Working Capital (as defined below) of no less than Two Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($200,000.00) (Working Capital Floor), each calculated in
accordance with GAAP, applied on a basis consistent with the Buyers historical accounting practices. Such amounts shall be determined and such requirements and ratios calculated based upon the Closing Balance Sheet described in Section 2.07.
If (i) Tangible Net Equity at 12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date is less than the Net Equity Floor, and/or (ii) Net Working Capital at 12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date is less than the Working Capital Floor, then the Purchase Price shall be reduced,
dollar-for-dollar, by a dollar amount equal to the amount of cash which would be required to bring both such requirements into compliance (hereinafter, the Post-Closing Purchase Price Reduction). If (i) Tangible Net Equity at
12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date exceeds the Net Equity Floor, and (ii) Net Working Capital at 12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date exceeds the Working Capital Floor, then the Purchase Price shall be increased, dollar-for-dollar, by a dollar amount equal to
the lesser of (A) the amount by which the Tangible Net Equity exceeds the Net Equity Floor, or (B) the amount by which the Net Working Capital exceeds the Working Capital Floor (hereinafter, the Post-Closing Purchase Price
Increase, and referred to herein alternatively with the Post-Closing Purchase Price Reduction as a Post-Closing Purchase Price Adjustment). If the Post-Closing Purchase Price Reduction results in a decrease in the
Purchase Price which is less than the amount of the Second Payment, then the amount of the Second Payment to be paid by Buyer to Seller in accordance with Section 2.02(b) shall be reduced by the amount of the Post-Closing Purchase Price Reduction.
If the Post-Closing Purchase Price Reduction is greater than the amount of the Second Payment, then Buyer shall not be required to make the Second Payment to Seller in accordance with Section 2.02(b), and Seller shall pay to Buyer, within three (3)
business days following the final determination of the Post-Closing Purchase Price Reduction, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account number designated by Buyer, the amount by which the Post-Closing Purchase Price Reduction
exceeds the Second Payment. If there is a Post-



-4-



---

Closing Purchase Price Increase, then the amount of the Second Payment to be paid by Buyer to Seller in accordance with
Section 2.02(b) shall be increased by the amount of the Post-Closing Purchase Price Increase, as set forth therein. For purposes hereof, Tangible Net Equity shall mean the excess of the consolidated tangible Purchased Assets
(including accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts) of the Seller over the consolidated Assumed Liabilities (including debt for purposes hereof regardless of whether such debt is paid-off or assumed at the Closing) of the Seller
as of the Closing Date, as adjusted and calculated in accordance with the procedures established for determining the Closing Balance Sheet in Section 2.07. For purposes hereof, Net Working Capital shall mean the sum of (A) all
current Purchased Assets of the Seller as reflected on the Closing Balance Sheet, minus the sum of (B) all current Assumed Liabilities (excluding the current portion of long-term debt for purposes hereof) of the Seller as reflected on the Closing
Balance Sheet.



Section 2.07 Post-Closing Audit. (A) Within five
(5) business days of the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to Buyer true and correct copies of all financial books and records of Seller necessary for Buyer to prepare a balance sheet of Seller dated as of the Closing Date. Within twenty (20)
business days after receipt of such books and records from Seller, Buyer shall prepare, and have audited, a balance sheet dated as of the Closing Date (the Closing Balance Sheet) on which shall be shown the purchased current
assets and the assumed current liabilities of the Seller as of the Closing Date, and from which the Tangible Net Equity and Net Working Capital of Seller can be calculated.



(B) The Closing Balance Sheet shall be prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP),
applied on a basis consistent with Buyers past practices, and audited by Almich & Associates (Almich) in accordance with Generally Accepted Government Auditing Standards (GAGAS). Upon receipt of the
Closing Balance Sheet prepared by Buyer, Seller shall have fifteen (15) business days in which to review it and either accept it or identify objections by written notice to Buyer. If, within fifteen (15) business days following delivery of the
Closing Balance Sheet to Seller, Seller has not given notice to Buyer of objections to the Closing Balance Sheet (such notice must contain a statement of the basis of Sellers objections in reasonable detail), then the calculations of Tangible
Net Equity and Net Working Capital as shown on the Closing Balance Sheet shall be used in computing the Post-Closing Purchase Price Adjustment, if any. If exceptions or objections are noted by Seller, Buyer, Seller and their respective accountants
shall meet to resolve the dispute. If such dispute has not been resolved within fifteen (15) business days after Seller gives notice of an objection, then the issues in dispute shall be submitted to a Big 4 accounting firm with which
neither Seller nor the Buyer has a prior relationship (the Accountants) for resolution. If the issues are submitted to the Accountants for resolution: (i) each party will furnish to the Accountants such work papers and other
documents and information relating to the disputed issues as the Accountants may request and are available to such party (or its accountants), and will be afforded the opportunity to present to the Accountants any material relating to the
determination and to discuss the determination with the Accountants; (ii) the determination by the Accountants, as set forth in a notice delivered to the parties, will be binding and conclusive on the parties; and (iii) Buyer, on the one hand, and
Seller, on the other hand, will each bear 50% of the fees of the Accountants for such determination. The amount of Sellers Tangible Net Equity and Net Working Capital for all purposes of this Agreement shall be as determined in accordance with
this Section 2.07.

Indemnitee shall promptly give notice hereunder to the Indemnitor, after obtaining notice of any claim as to which recovery may be sought against the Indemnitor because of the indemnity in Section 9.12 or 9.13, and, if such indemnity shall arise
from the claim of a third party, the Indemnitee may, in its sole discretion, consent to the Indemnitor assuming the defense of any such claim. If the Indemnitor assumes the defense of such claim or litigation resulting therefrom at the request of
Indemnitee, the obligations of the Indemnitor hereunder as to such claim shall include taking all steps necessary in the defense or settlement of such claim or litigation resulting therefrom including the retention of counsel, which counsel must be
to the Indemnitees reasonable satisfaction, and holding the Indemnitee harmless from and against any and all Losses resulting from, arising out of, or incurred with respect to any settlement approved by the Indemnitor or any judgment in
connection with such claim or litigation resulting therefrom. The Indemnitor shall not, in the defense of such claim or litigation, (i) consent to the entry of any judgment (other than a judgment of dismissal on the merits without costs) except with
the written consent of the Indemnitee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, or (ii) enter into any settlement (except with the written consent of the Indemnitee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), unless the Indemnitee
is released and held harmless from and against any and all Losses resulting from, arising out of or incurred with respect to such judgment or settlement. If the Indemnitee does not request the Indemnitor to assume the defense, or if Indemnitor does
not assume the defense of any such claim by a third party or litigation resulting therefrom after request to do so by Indemnitee, the Indemnitee may defend against such claim or litigation in such manner as it deems appropriate, and the Indemnitee
may settle such claim or litigation on such terms as it may deem appropriate and the Indemnitor shall promptly reimburse the Indemnitee for the amount of such settlement and for all Losses incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the defense
against or settlement of such claim or litigation.
