         (a)   Within 15 days following the Closing Date, the Purchaser will prepare or cause to be prepared a combined balance sheet of the Target
Companies as of the Closing Date (the "Closing Date Balance Sheet") showing the amount of Closing Date Working Capital, along with a statement setting
forth in reasonable detail the method of calculating Closing Date Working Capital, which shall be in accordance with GAAP and consistent with the methodology used in Target Financial Statements (as
defined in Section 2.5 below), and shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Shareholders such Closing Date Balance Sheet. In the event that the Shareholders object to the Purchaser's
calculation of the Closing Date Working Capital, then, within 30 days after the delivery to the Shareholders of the Closing Date Balance Sheet, the Shareholders shall deliver to the Purchaser a notice
describing in reasonable detail the Shareholders' objection to the Purchaser's calculation (an "Objection Notice"), accompanied by a statement setting
forth the dollar amount determined by the Shareholders to represent the Closing Date Working Capital or a request for additional information from the Purchaser that the Shareholders may require in
order to determine the Closing Date Working Capital. If the Shareholders do not deliver an Objection Notice to the Purchaser within the 30-day period referred to in the preceding sentence, then the
Purchaser's calculation of the Closing Date Working Capital shall be binding and
conclusive on the Purchaser and the Shareholders. If the Shareholders deliver an Objection Notice to the Purchaser within the 30-day period referred to in this paragraph, and if the Purchaser and the
Shareholders are unable to agree upon the calculation of the Closing Date Working Capital within 15 days after an Objection Notice is delivered to the Purchaser, the Shareholders and the
Purchaser shall select a nationally recognized accounting firm mutually acceptable to them (the "Neutral Accountant") to resolve any remaining
objections, the cost of which shall be paid by the party whose assertions regarding the amount of the Closing Date Working Capital differ by the greater amount from the Closing Date Working Capital
determined by the Neutral Accountant. If Purchaser and the Shareholders are unable to select the Neutral Accountant within 10 days after the commencement of such selection process, the Neutral
Accountant shall be KPMG (or its successor). The Shareholders and the Purchaser shall jointly instruct the Neutral Accountant to resolve any unresolved objections within 30 days after referral
of the matter to them, and the determination by the Neutral Accountant of the Closing Date Working Capital, shall be conclusive and binding on the Purchaser and Shareholders absent fraud or manifest
error. During the 30-day period following the Objection Notice, Shareholders and Purchaser shall each have access to the other party's working papers and similar materials prepared in
connection with the Closing Date Balance Sheet and the Objection Notice, as the case may be. 


         (b)   Prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser and the Shareholders shall establish a joint bank account at a bank mutually acceptable to Purchaser
and the
Shareholders (the "Deposit Account"). Each of the Purchaser and the Shareholders shall name a designee with respect to the Deposit 



3







 




Account,
who shall initially be Curtis Fletcher and Tyler Houston, respectively (the "Designees"). The Purchaser and the Shareholders shall be permitted
at all times during the period in which the Deposit Account is in place, to designate a new Designee by written notice to the other parties to this Agreement. The Designees shall be the authorized
signatories with respect to the Deposit Account, and all withdrawals from the joint bank account shall require the signatures of both Designees. The amount of the Closing Date Working Capital in
excess of $275,000 is referred to as the "Excess Working Capital." 



        (c)   All collections of accounts receivable of the Target Companies from and after the Closing shall be placed in the Deposit Account until
such time
as the Excess Working Capital has been paid to the Shareholders in accordance with the MAG Allocation. On each Friday from and after the Closing Date and until that certain date on which the Designees
jointly determine that such Friday meetings are no longer required, the Designees shall meet in person or by telephone to discuss the funds in the Deposit Account and the cash requirements of the
Target Companies for the following week. At such time that the Designees agree upon the cash requirements of the Target Companies, they shall issue or cause to be issued a check or wire transfer to
the Target Companies in an amount equal to such cash requirements and shall issue or cause to be issued to the Shareholders in accordance with the MAG Allocation checks for the balance of the funds in
the Deposit Account. The Parties agree to cause their respective designees to use their reasonable efforts to manage the funds in the Deposit Account so that the payments of the Excess Working Capital
to the Shareholders from the joint bank account are made as soon as reasonably practicable. 


         (d)   The Deposit Account shall be terminated as of the date on which the Designees agree that the Excess Working Capital has been paid in full
to the
Shareholders. 




        1.7   Contingent Consideration.    Additional consideration of up to a maximum of $5,000,000 (the "Maximum Contingent
Consideration") may be paid by the Purchaser based on a combination of 2005 and 2006 EBITDA (and, to the extent applicable, 2007 EBITDA), as follows:



         (a)   $1,500,000 in Contingent Consideration shall be payable if the Target Companies achieve at least $5,000,000 in EBITDA in 2005; in the
event that
the Target Companies achieve EBITDA of less than $5,000,000, no Contingent Consideration shall be payable pursuant to this Section 1.7(a). Any Contingent Consideration payable pursuant to this
Section 1.7(a) (the "2005 Contingent Consideration") will be payable on or before February 15, 2006. 


         (b)   So long as the Target Companies achieve EBITDA in 2005 of at least $4,000,000, additional Contingent Consideration shall be payable only
if the
Target Companies achieve EBITDA in 2006 (and, if applicable, 2007), as follows:



        (i)    The amount of the Contingent Consideration shall be $0 in the event that the Target Companies achieve EBITDA in 2006 of $6,000,000,
and
$3,500,000 if the Companies achieve EBITDA in 2006 of at least $8,000,000, and the Contingent Consideration of up to $3,500,000 shall be prorated for any EBITDA in 2006 between $6,000,000 and
$8,000,000. Any Contingent Consideration payable pursuant to this Section 1.7(b)(i) (the "2006 Contingent Consideration") will be payable on or
before February 15, 2007. 


         (ii)   In the event that the 2006 Contingent Consideration, if any, equals less than $3,500,000, the difference between $3,500,000 and the 2006
Contingent Consideration (the "Balance") may be earned as follows: the amount of Contingent Consideration shall be $0 in the event that the Target
Companies achieve EBITDA in 2007 of $7,500,000 or less, the full amount of the Balance if the Target Companies achieve EBITDA in 2007 of at least $10,000,000, the Contingent Consideration, up to the
full amount of the Balance, shall be prorated for any EBITDA in 2007 between $7,500,000 and $10,000,000. Any Contingent 




4







 





Consideration
payable pursuant to this Section 1.7(b)(ii) (the "2007 Contingent Consideration") will be payable on or before February 15, 2008. 





        For
purposes of clarity, if the Target Companies fail to achieve at least $4,000,000 in EBITDA in 2005, no Contingent Consideration shall be payable whatsoever. 



         (c)   The Contingent Consideration shall be allocated among the MAG Holders in accordance with the MAG Allocation. The Contingent Consideration
shall
be payable, at the election of the Purchaser, (i) in cash, or (ii) if there has been no IPO as of the date that any payment of Contingent Consideration becomes due, in Series 3
Stock at the Series 3 Stock Price or (iii) if there has been an IPO as of the date of payment, in Common Stock at the IPO Price. The MAG Holders shall have the right to require payment
in cash of each amount of Contingent Consideration payable pursuant to this Section 1.7 an amount equal to up to 10% of the Cash Equivalents Balance as of the end of the calendar year
immediately prior to the applicable payment; provided, however, irrespective of the foregoing limitation on cash payments, in no case shall any payment
pursuant to this Section 1.7 be made such that not less than 20% of the Contingent Consideration amount due is paid in cash. 



        (d)   Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.7, on or before April 15, 2006, the Purchaser shall have the
irrevocable
option to make a one-time cash payment of $2,500,000 in full satisfaction of all amounts owing in connection with the contingent consideration described in this Section 1.7(b) above. 




         1.8   Further Action.    If, at any time after the Closing, any further action is determined by any of the parties to be
necessary or
desirable to carry out the sale of the Target Shares consistent with the terms of this Agreement, then the Shareholders shall cooperate with the Purchaser, at the cost of the Purchaser, and shall
execute and deliver such documents and take such other actions as the Purchaser may reasonably request for the purpose of evidencing the sale and transfer of the Target Shares consistent with the
terms of this Agreement. 


         1.9   Election Regarding Cash Notes.    Not later than three (3) business days prior to the Closing, each Shareholder shall
make a written
election to receive such Shareholder's Cash Notes, or any portion thereof, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D-1 or in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit D-2. In the event that any one or more Shareholder fails to make such an election timely, such Shareholder
shall be deemed to have elected to receive such Shareholder's Cash Note in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D-1. Such election
shall be made by delivering to the Purchaser, in accordance with Section 9.8 hereof, an Election Form substantially in the form attached hereto as  Exhibit D-3.

of any transfer legend if, with such request, the Purchaser shall have received an opinion of counsel to the holder, such opinion to be reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser, to the effect that any
transfers by said holder of such Notes may be made to the public without compliance with either Section 5 of the Securities Act or pursuant to Rule 144(k). In no event will such legend
be removed if such opinion is based upon the "private offering" exemption of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act.

   7.     INDEMNIFICATION


         7.1   Survival of Representations and Covenants.  



        (a)   Subject to the provisions of Section 7.1(b), the representations, warranties, covenants and obligations of each party to this
Agreement
shall survive: (i) the Closing and (ii) any sale or other disposition of any or all of the Target Shares by the Purchaser. 


         (b)   The representations, warranties, covenants and obligations of each party shall survive the Closing to the extent provided in this
Section 7.1(b). The Specified Representations and covenants or obligations to be performed after the Closing shall survive and continue indefinitely. All other representations and warranties
and related sections of the Target Disclosure Schedule and the Purchaser Disclosure Schedule and all covenants to have been performed prior to the Closing shall survive the Closing for a period of
twelve (12) months after the date of the Closing, except that the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 2.17 and 2.20 shall survive the Closing until the expiration of the
statute of limitations applicable to claims against any Target Company. For purposes of this Agreement, the "Specified Representations" shall mean the
representations and warranties set forth in Sections 2.1, 2.4, 2.7 and 6.5 and Sections 3.1, 3.6 and 3.13 and the related sections of the Target Disclosure Schedule and the Purchaser
Disclosure Schedule, as applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if a Claim Notice (as defined below) relating to any representation or warranty set forth in any of said Sections
is given to the party required to provide indemnification pursuant to this Section 7 on or prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Section 7.1(b), such representation or warranty shall not so expire, but rather shall remain in full force and effect until such time as each and every claim that is based
directly or indirectly upon, or that relates directly or indirectly to, any Breach or alleged Breach of such representation or warranty has been fully and finally resolved, either by means of a
written settlement agreement executed by the parties hereto, or by means of a final, non-appealable judgment issued by a court of competent jurisdiction. 



        (c)   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 7.1(b) (and without limiting the generality of anything contained in
Section 7.1(a)), if any party to this Agreement had knowledge, on or prior to the Closing Date, of any circumstance that constitutes or that has given rise or could reasonably be expected to
give rise, directly or indirectly, to any Breach of any representation or warranty by such party in this Agreement or the Target Disclosure Schedule or Purchaser Disclosure
Schedule, as applicable, then such representation or warranty shall not expire, but rather shall remain in full force and effect for an unlimited period of time (regardless of whether any Claim Notice
relating to such representation or warranty is ever given). 


        (d)   For purposes of this Agreement, a "Claim Notice" relating to a particular representation or warranty shall be deemed to have been given if
any
party to this Agreement, acting in good faith, delivers (in accordance with Section 9.8 hereof) to the party to this Agreement from which indemnification is to be sought a written notice
stating that such party believes that there is or that it has reasonable cause to believe there has been a Breach of such representation or warranty and containing (i) a brief description of
the circumstances supporting such party's belief that there is or has been such a possible Breach, and (ii) a non-binding, preliminary estimate of the aggregate dollar amount of the actual and
potential Damages that have arisen and may arise as a direct or indirect result of such possible Breach. 


         (e)   For purposes of this Agreement, each statement or other item of information set forth in the Target Disclosure Schedule and the Purchaser
Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty made by the Shareholders and the Purchaser, respectively, in this Agreement. 



37







 





         7.2   Indemnification by the Shareholders.  



         (a)   The MAG Holders, jointly and severally, shall hold harmless and indemnify each of the Indemnitees from and against, and shall compensate
and
reimburse each of the Indemnitees for, any Damages that are directly suffered or incurred by any of the Indemnitees or to which any of the Indemnitees may otherwise become subject at any time
(regardless of whether or not such Damages relate to any third-party claim) and that arise directly or indirectly from or as a direct or indirect result of, or are directly or indirectly connected

Representatives by or on behalf of any MAG Holder or any Representative of any MAG Holder with respect to MAG; 


         (iii) any Breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of any MAG Holder contained in any of the Transactional Agreements relating
to MAG; or 


         (iv)  any Proceeding relating directly or indirectly to any Breach, alleged Breach, Liability or matter of the type referred to in clause "(i)"
through "(iii)" above (including any Proceeding commenced by any Indemnitee for the purpose of enforcing any of its rights under this Section 7). 




         (b)   The OLWM Holders, jointly and severally, shall hold harmless and indemnify each of the Indemnitees from and against, and shall compensate
and
reimburse each of the Indemnitees for, any Damages that are directly suffered or incurred by any of the Indemnitees or to which any of the Indemnitees may otherwise become subject at any time
(regardless of whether or not such Damages relate to any third-party claim) and that arise directly or indirectly from or as a direct or indirect result of, or are directly or indirectly connected

Representatives by or on behalf of any OLWM Holder or any Representative of any OLWM Holder with respect to OLWM; 



        (iii) any Breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of any OLWM Holder contained in any of the Transactional Agreements relating
to OLWM; or 


         (iv)  any Proceeding relating directly or indirectly to any Breach, alleged Breach, Liability or matter of the type referred to in clause "(i)"
through "(iii)" above (including any Proceeding commenced by any Indemnitee for the purpose of enforcing any of its rights under this Section 7). 




        (c)   Each of the Shareholders shall, severally but not jointly, hold harmless and indemnify each of the Indemnitees from and against, and shall
compensate and reimburse each of the Indemnitees for, any Damages that are directly or indirectly suffered or incurred by any of the Indemnitees or to which any of the Indemnitees may otherwise become
subject at any time (regardless of whether or not such Damages relate to any third-party claim) and which arise directly or indirectly from or as a direct or indirect result of, or are directly or
indirectly connected 



38







 

with,
any Breach of any representation or warranty made by such Shareholder in Section 6 of this Agreement as of the date of this Agreement. 


         (d)   Subject to Section 7.2(e), no Shareholder shall be required to make any indemnification payment pursuant to Sections 7.2(a) or
7.2(b) for any Breach as set forth in such Sections until such time as, and to the extent that, the total amount of all Damages (including the Damages arising from such Breach and all other Damages
arising from any other Breaches of any representations, warranties or covenants contained in Sections 7.2(a) and 7.2(b)) that have been directly or indirectly suffered or incurred by any one or
more of the Indemnitees in connection with a Breach of Sections 7.2(a) and 7.2(b), or to which any one or more of the Indemnitees has or have otherwise become subject pursuant to
Sections 7.2(a) or 7.2(b), exceeds $182,500. Except in the case of fraud or willful misrepresentation, the maximum liability of each Shareholder under Section 7.2 shall not exceed such
Shareholder's Indemnity Cap; provided that in the case of fraud or willful misrepresentation, the maximum liability of Bromagem under Section 7.2
shall in no case exceed the actual amount of consideration received by Bromagem in connection with this Agreement. 


         (e)   The limitation on the indemnification obligations of the Shareholders that is set forth in Section 7.2(d) shall not apply to a
Shareholder
to the extent that such Shareholder had Knowledge on or prior to the Closing Date of any circumstance that directly or indirectly caused or contributed to such Breach and such circumstance was not
disclosed by the Shareholders to the Purchaser in the Target Disclosure Schedule. 




         7.3   Indemnification by the Purchaser.  



         (a)   The Purchaser shall hold harmless and indemnify the Shareholders and their respective Representatives from and against, and shall
compensate and
reimburse them for, any Damages that are directly or indirectly suffered or incurred by them or any of them or to which they or any of them may otherwise become subject at any time (regardless of
whether or not such Damages relate to any third-party claim) and that arise directly or indirectly from or as a direct or indirect result of, or are directly or indirectly connected
with:



         (i)    any Breach of the Purchaser Specified Representations; 


         (ii)   any Breach of any representation, warranty, statement, information or provision contained in the Purchaser Disclosure Schedule related
to the
Purchase Specified Representations or the Closing Certificate; or 


        (iii) any Proceeding relating directly or indirectly to any failure or Breach of the type referred to in clause "(i)" or "(ii)" above
(including any Proceeding commenced by the Shareholders or any of their Representatives for the purpose of enforcing their rights under this Section 7.3). 





        For
purposes of this Agreement, the "Purchaser Specified Representations" shall mean the representations set forth in Sections 3.1 through 3.6 hereof, inclusive. 



        (b)   The Purchaser shall not be required to make any indemnification payment pursuant to Sections 7.3(a)(i) through 7.3(a)(iii) for any
Breach

Breaches of its representations or warranties) that have been directly or indirectly suffered or incurred by the Shareholders, or to which the Shareholders have otherwise become subject, exceeds
$182,500 in the aggregate. Except in the case of fraud or willful misrepresentation, the maximum liability of the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 7 for indemnification pursuant to
Sections 7.3(a)(i) through 7.3(a)(iii) shall not exceed the Aggregate Overall Cap. 



39







 

         (c)   The Purchaser shall hold harmless and indemnify the Shareholders and their respective Representatives from and against, and shall
compensate and
reimburse them for, any Damages that are directly or indirectly suffered or incurred by them or any of them or to which they or any of them may otherwise become subject at any time (regardless of
whether or not such Damages relate to any third-party claim) and that arise directly or indirectly from or as a direct or indirect result of, or are directly or indirectly connected with any Breach of
a representation or warranty contained in this agreement, other than the Purchaser Specified Representations (the "Unspecified Representations"), which
damages are a result of the Purchaser's fraud. The indemnification set forth in this Section 7.3(c) shall be the sole recourse available to the Shareholders with respect to any Breach of the
Unspecified Representations. 




         7.4   Setoff.    The Purchaser shall have the limited right to withhold and deduct any sum that may be owed to any
Indemnitee under this
Section 7 from any amount payable by any Indemnitee to the Shareholders in respect of the Indemnity Securities and the Contingent Consideration. The withholding and deduction of any such sum shall
operate for all purposes as a complete discharge (to the extent of such sum) of the obligation to pay the amount from which such sum was withheld and deducted. Except as provided above in this Section
7.4, the Indemnitees shall not be entitled to set off against or deduct from any payment due to the Shareholders pursuant to the Transactional Agreements any claims for indemnification pursuant to
Section 7.2. 


         7.5   Exclusive Remedy.    Except in the case of (i) fraud or willful misrepresentation, or (ii) any injunctive remedy
or similar
equitable relief to which a party may be entitled, the sole and exclusive remedy for any breach of a warranty, representation, covenant or obligation in the Transactional Agreements shall be as set
forth in this Section 7. 


         7.6   Defense of Third-Party Claims.  



         (a)   Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under Section 7.2 or Section 7.3 of notice of the assertion or commencement by
any
third person or entity of any claim, investigation, proceeding or action (collectively, a "Claim") with respect to which any indemnifying party may
become obligated to indemnify, hold harmless, compensate or reimburse an indemnified party pursuant to this Section 7, such indemnified party will, if a claim is to be made against an
indemnifying party under such Section or if the indemnified party intends to take such claim into account in calculating the limitations described in Section 7.2(e) or Section 7.3(b), as
applicable, give notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement of such Claim, but the failure to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party of any liability that the
indemnifying party may have to any indemnified party, except to the extent that the indemnifying party demonstrates that the defense of such action is prejudiced by the indemnified party's failure to
give such notice. 


        (b)   The indemnified party shall afford the indemnifying party the opportunity to assume the defense of any claim as to which notice is given
under
Section 7.6(a) at the sole expense of the indemnifying party. If the indemnifying party so undertakes to assume the defense of such Claim:



         (i)    the indemnifying party shall proceed to defend such Claim in a diligent manner with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
indemnified party; 



        (ii)   the indemnifying party shall keep the indemnified party informed of all material developments and events relating to such Claim;



         (iii) the indemnified party shall have the right to participate in the defense of such Claim; provided,
however, the counsel retained by the indemnified party shall be at the sole cost and expense of the indemnified party, and further provided, that counsel retained by the
indemnifying party shall be lead counsel in the defense of such Claim; and 




40







 





         (iv)  the indemnifying party shall not settle, adjust or compromise such Claim without the prior written consent of the indemnified party which
shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 




         (c)   If the indemnifying party fails to promptly undertake the defense of such Claim or having undertaken such defense thereafter fails to do
so
diligently and in good faith, then the indemnified party may proceed with the defense of such Claim and:



         (i)    all expenses incurred and relating to the defense of such Claim shall be borne and paid exclusively by the indemnifying party;



         (ii)   the indemnifying party shall make available to the indemnified party any documents and materials in the possession or control of the
indemnifying party that may be necessary to the defense of such Claim; 


        (iii) the indemnified party shall keep the indemnifying party informed of all material developments and events relating to such Claim; and 


         (iv)  the indemnified party shall have the right to settle, adjust or compromise such Claim with the consent of the indemnifying party which shall
not
be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 





        7.7   In Rem Liability.    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, and except as set forth in this
Section 7.7,
the Purchaser irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that (i) the Purchaser shall have no recourse to the Shareholders or to the assets of the Shareholders other than the Indemnity Securities
and the Contingent Consideration for the payment of indemnification obligations of the Shareholders pursuant to this Section 7 and (ii) the Purchaser shall enforce payment of indemnification
claims against the Shareholders pursuant to this Section 7 solely from the Indemnity Securities and the Contingent Consideration and no deficiency or other action shall be maintained against the
Shareholders for payment thereof or personal liability therefor. For purposes of this paragraph and the Purchaser's enforcement of its rights hereunder against the Indemnity Securities,
(i) prior to any conversion of the Notes into capital stock of the Purchaser, claims for indemnification shall be setoff against the Principal Amount on a dollar for dollar basis and
(ii) after conversion of the Notes into capital stock of the Purchaser, each share of common stock of the Purchaser shall be deemed to have a value equal to the fair market value of such share
on the date of the payment of the claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 7. The foregoing limitation shall not apply to (i) Damages incurred by Purchaser due to any
Shareholder's fraud or willful misrepresentation or (ii) claims against Brinkerhoff, Houston or Moore for Damages incurred by the Purchaser (a) in connection with the Breach of any of
the Specified Representations or (b) with respect to a Breach of Section 2.17 or 2.20 hereof. Such limitation, however, shall apply to a claim for Damages against Bromagem with respect
to the matters specified in clauses (ii)(a) and (ii)(b) in the immediately preceding sentence. 


         7.8   Exercise of Remedies By Indemnitees Other Than The Purchaser.    No Indemnitee (other than the Purchaser or any
successor thereto or
assign thereof) shall be permitted to assert any indemnification claim or exercise any other remedy under this Agreement unless the Purchaser (or any successor thereto or assign thereof) shall have
consented to the assertion of such indemnification claim or the exercise of such other remedy. 



        7.9   Allocation.    Any payment of indemnification pursuant to Section 7.2 shall be treated by the parties for tax
purposes as an
adjustment to the purchase price described in Section 1.2 of this Agreement. 


41









  


         7.10 Insurance and Taxes.    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any amount paid any third party (including, without
limitation, an insurance carrier) to or on behalf of any indemnified party or otherwise reimbursed to any indemnified party with respect to a matter as to which indemnification is provided and any tax
benefit received by an indemnified party with respect to a matter as to which indemnification is provided shall reduce in each instance the amount to be paid by an indemnifying party to an indemnified
party with respect to such matter.
