Seller shall cause Unitek to pay, perform and discharge all of the liabilities set forth on Exhibit “B-1” .

 1.5                           Accounts Receivable Adjustment.  Within 90 days after the Closing, Buyer will deliver to Seller a statement (“Buyer’s Statement”) showing Buyer’s calculation of those Accounts Receivable which Buyer has determined to be uncollectible due to errors in the invoice or deficiencies in the services provided, together with a calculation of what the Accounts Receivable in the Working Capital pursuant to Section 1.6 would have been if calculated taking into account the uncollectible Accounts Receivable (the “Adjusted Accounts Receivable”).  In the event that Seller objects to Buyer’s Statement, then Seller shall transmit such objection to Buyer within ten business days of receipt of Buyer’s Statement.  Such objection shall be in a writing setting forth in reasonable detail the objection and the basis therefor.  In the event no objection is made within such period then Buyer’s Statement shall be binding upon both parties.  In the event that the Buyer’s Statement shows the Adjusted Accounts Receivable are less than the Accounts Receivable on the Seller’s Statement (as defined in Section 1.6), then the Escrow Agent shall disburse to Buyer that portion of the Escrow Amount equal to the difference between the Adjusted Accounts Receivable and the Accounts Receivable on Seller’s Statement, and shall disburse any remaining amount in the Escrow to Seller within 10 days after the amount due is calculated.  In the event that the Escrow Amount is not sufficient to fully cover the amount owed to Buyer, then Seller shall pay any shortfall to Buyer within 10 days after the amount due is calculated.  In the event that the Adjusted Accounts Receivable exceeds the Accounts Receivable on Seller’s Statement, then the Escrow Agent shall pay all of the Escrow Amount to Seller within 10 days after the amount due is calculated.  In the event that Seller timely objects to Buyer’s Statement, then the Escrow Agent shall only retain that portion of the Escrow Amount which is equal to the amount in dispute and all other amounts shall be paid to the applicable parties within 10 days after the amount due is calculated.  Such disputed amount shall be held by the Escrow Agent until both parties have resolved their differences and agreed to the Adjusted Accounts Receivable pursuant to the process described in Section 1.7.
  
 
 1.6                           Working Capital Adjustment.
 
 (a)                  The working capital shall consist of accounts receivable (“Accounts Receivable”), plus prepaid expenses, plus Deposits, less accounts payable (“Accounts Payable”), payroll payable and taxes payable all as shown on Exhibit “B-2” (the “Working Capital”).  Working Capital shall not include cash, except for the amounts of the Deposits.  No sooner than five days prior to the Closing, Seller shall provide a statement of Working Capital (“Seller’s Statement”) which shall reflect the current status of such accounts and which shall be subject to Buyer’s reasonable approval.  The Accounts Receivable shall only set forth amounts which can be reasonably collected within six months with no extraordinary out of pocket costs.  To the extent that the Working Capital shown on the Seller’s Statement exceeds the Base Working Capital, the Purchase Price paid at Closing shall be increased by the amount of such excess.  In the event the Working Capital on the Seller’s Statement is less than the Base Working Capital, the Purchase Price paid at Closing shall be reduced by the amount of such shortfall.  As used in this Section 1.6, the “Base Working Capital” of the Business means $1,207,360.00, which is the Working Capital as set forth on the Balance Sheet for Unitek at December 31, 2008.
 
 (b)                  Within 90 days after the Closing, Buyer will deliver to Seller a statement (“Buyer’s WC Statement”) showing Buyer’s calculations of the actual Working Capital as of the Closing Date.  In the event that the Buyer’s WC Statement shows that actual Working Capital was less than the Working Capital calculated pursuant to Section 1.6(a), then the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the amount of the shortfall.  In the event that the Buyer’s WC Statement shows that Working Capital was higher than the Working Capital calculated pursuant to Section 1.6(a), then the Purchase Price shall be increased by the amount of equal to the excess.  For the purpose of the Working Capital adjustments contemplated by this Section 1.6(b), Accounts Receivable shall be valued as set forth in Section 1.6(a) and shall not be adjusted (because the adjustment therefor was taken into account and compensated for under Section 1.5).  Within 10 days after Buyer’s delivery of the Buyer’s WC Statement to Seller and if no objection is received by Buyer from Seller prior to such date, then the Working Capital adjustment amount will be paid to the applicable party.  In the event that Seller does timely object to Buyer’s WC Statement, then any disputes shall be resolved in accordance with Section 1.7 of this Agreement.
  
 
 1.7                           Resolution of Disputes Relating to Sections 1.5 and 1.6.  Buyer and the Seller will attempt to resolve any disputes raised in accordance with Section 1.5 or 1.6 in good faith.  If any such matters remain unresolved by the date that is ten business days after the date on which a party has provided notice of the dispute to the other, either Buyer or Seller may provide written notice to the other that it elects to submit the disputed items to Ernst & Young, LLP, or another nationally recognized independent accounting firm chosen jointly by Buyer and Seller (the “Referee”).  The Referee will promptly review only those items and amounts (and may not assign a value greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either party or smaller than the smallest value for such item claimed by either party) specifically set forth and objected to in a dispute notice delivered pursuant to Section 1.5 or 1.6, as applicable, and resolve the dispute with respect to each such specific item and amount.  Buyer and Seller shall each be responsible for one-half of the fees and expenses of the Referee.  The decision of the Referee with respect to the matters in dispute will be final, conclusive and binding on the parties.  The Referee’s decision shall be based solely on written submissions by Buyer and Seller and their respective representatives and not by independent review.  The Referee shall not hold any hearings, hear any oral testimony or otherwise seek or require any other evidence.  Subject to the foregoing, each of the parties to this Agreement agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Referee and to cause the Referee to resolve any dispute no later than 20 business days after selection of the Referee.

Unitek has, and will after the Closing have, the right and authority to use the Intellectual Property and such inventions, trade secrets, processes, models, designs and formulae as are necessary to enable Buyer to conduct and to continue to conduct all phases of the Business, and that use does not, and will not, conflict with, infringe on, or violate any patent or other rights of others.

 9.                             OBLIGATIONS AFTER CLOSING
 
 9.1                           Indemnification.  The parties agree to provide indemnification to each other as provided in this Section 9.1.
 
 (a)                  Indemnification by Seller.  Subject to the provisions of this Section 9.1, Seller hereby covenants and agrees that, Seller shall indemnify and defend Buyer and its stockholders, directors, officers, employees and agents, and each of their successors and assigns (each, individually, a “Seller Indemnified Party”) and hold them harmless from, against and in respect of any and all costs, losses, claims, liabilities, fines, penalties and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs and interest which may be imposed in connection therewith and court costs) (collectively, “Losses”) incurred by any of them, directly or indirectly, in connection with any breach of or any inaccuracy in any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by Seller in this Agreement.
 
 (b)                  Indemnification by Buyer.  Subject to the provisions of this Section 9.1, Buyer hereby covenants and agrees that Buyer shall indemnify and defend Seller and its stockholders, directors, officers, employees and agents, and each of their successors and assigns (each, individually, a “Buyer Indemnified Party”) and hold them harmless from, against and in respect of any and all Losses incurred by any of them, directly or indirectly, in connection with any breach of or any inaccuracy in any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by Buyer in this Agreement.
 
 (c)                  Notice and Process.  If by reason of the claim of any third person relating to any of the matters as to which either Seller or Buyer have an obligation to indemnify any Seller Indemnified Parties or Buyer Indemnified Parties pursuant to this Agreement, a lien, attachment, garnishment or execution is placed upon any of the property or assets of any Seller Indemnified Party or Buyer Indemnified Party, then the indemnifying party shall also, promptly upon demand, furnish an indemnity bond or take other actions satisfactory to the indemnified party to obtain the prompt release of such lien, attachment, garnishment or execution.  If the facts giving rise to any such indemnification shall involve any actual claim or demand by any third person against a Seller Indemnified Party or a Buyer Indemnified Party, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to notice of and shall at the election of a Seller Indemnified Party or a Buyer Indemnified Party (without prejudice to the right of any Seller Indemnified Party or Buyer Indemnified Party to fully participate at the indemnifying party’s expense through counsel of its own choosing) defend or prosecute such claim at the indemnifying party’s expense and through counsel of the indemnifying party’s own choosing, as reasonably approved by the Seller Indemnified Party or Buyer Indemnified Party; provided, however, that if the defendants in any action shall include both the indemnifying party and an indemnified party, and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that counsel selected by the indemnifying party has a conflict of interest because of the availability of different or additional defenses to the indemnified party, each indemnified party shall have the right to select separate counsel to participate in the defense of such action on its behalf, at the expense of the indemnifying party.  The Seller Indemnified Party or Buyer Indemnified Party shall cooperate fully in the defense of such claim and shall make available to the indemnifying party pertinent information under its control relating thereto, but shall be entitled to be reimbursed, as provided in this paragraph, for all reasonable costs and expense incurred by it in connection therewith.
  
 
 (d)                  Subrogation.  If an indemnified party receives payment or other indemnification from the indemnifying party hereunder with respect to any claim or demand by any third person against the indemnified party, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment or indemnification to all rights in respect of the subject matter of such claim to which the indemnified party may be entitled, to institute appropriate action for the recovery thereof, and the indemnified party agrees to provide reasonable levels of assistance and cooperation to the indemnifying party (but only if such does not involve expense to the indemnified party) in enforcing such rights.
 
 (e)                  No Consequential Damages.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the liability of each party to this Agreement resulting from the breach or default by such party shall be limited to direct actual damages incurred by the injured party, and each party hereto hereby waives its right to recover from the other party consequential, punitive, exemplary, and speculative damages, including lost profits.  This Section 9.1 (e) shall not limit the remedies available to Buyer in connection with a breach of Sections 9.2 and 9.4.
 
 (f)                   Allocation of Liability.  Notwithstanding any other  provision of this Agreement, Seller shall not be obligated to provide indemnification pursuant to this Section 9.1 unless and until, and only to the extent, that the aggregate of all Losses suffered by the Seller Indemnified Parties exceeds fifteen thousand dollars ($15,000).  Further, Seller shall be obligated to provide indemnification pursuant to this Section 9.1 only in connection with the first one million dollars ($1,000,000.00) of Losses and then that portion of any Losses exceeding two million dollars ($2,000,000.00) up to three million five hundred thousand dollars ($3,500,000.00), with Buyer foregoing any claims for indemnification for Losses between one million dollars ($1,000,000.00) and two million dollars ($2,000,000) and claims in excess of three million five hundred thousand dollars ($3,500,000.00) .  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no minimum or maximum dollar limitation shall apply to Losses arising from any claim with respect to the covenants, representations and warranties contained in Section 2.16 relating to Taxes and Section 2.20 relating to payment of any retention payments, or the covenants and agreements of Seller set forth in Sections 9.2, 9.5 or 9.6.
  
 
 (g)                  Exclusive Remedy.  Except as set forth in Section 9.2 and Section 10.6, the parties’ indemnification obligations set forth in this Section 9.1 shall constitute each party’s sole and exclusive remedy for indemnifiable Losses in respect of any breach of or default under this Agreement by any party, and each party hereby waives and releases any and all statutory, equitable, or common law remedy for Losses any party may have in respect of any breach of or default under this Agreement.
 
 9.2                           Restrictive Covenants.  In consideration for the payment by Buyer of the Purchase Price, Seller agrees that it will not and shall prevent Seller’s Affiliates from, at any time within the five-year period immediately following the Closing Date, directly or indirectly engage in, or have any interest in any person, firm, corporation or business (whether as an employee, officer, director, agent, security holder, creditor, consultant or otherwise) that engages in a business similar to the “Competing Business” in the United States of America.  For the purpose of this Section 9.2, “Competing Business” shall mean the business of providing qualified personnel to execute quality inspection and verifications services under clients' Supplier and Vendor Quality Management and Assurance programs for the aerospace and defense industries.Specifically, but not limited thereto, Seller and Seller’s Affiliates shall not, during such period, market in the United States or solicit for business located in the United States for the services performed in connection with the Competing Business.  If any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that the restrictions contained in this paragraph shall be void, voidable or unenforceable for any reason, it is the intent of the parties that the restrictions herein contained shall be construed by such court so that the restrictions are limited to conform with prevailing law and to that extent the restrictions shall be enforced.  The parties acknowledge and agree that the restrictions contained in this section are a reasonable and necessary protection of the immediate interests of Buyer, and any violation of these restrictions would cause substantial injury to Buyer and that Buyer would not have entered into this Agreement without receiving the additional consideration offered by Seller in binding Seller to these restrictions.  In the event of a breach or a threatened breach by Seller or Seller’s Affiliates of these restrictions, Buyer shall be entitled to an injunction restraining Seller and Seller’s Affiliates from such breach or threatened breach without having to establish monetary damage; provided, however, that the right to injunctive relief shall not be construed as prohibiting Buyer from pursuing any other available remedies for such breach or threatened breach.Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller and Seller’s Affiliates shall not be in breach of this Section 9.2 on account of retaining and performing any Retained Contracts.  This Section 9.2 shall not be subject to the provisions of Sections 9.1(e), (f) and (g).
 
 9.3                           Employee Benefits.  No portion of the assets of any plan, fund, program or arrangement, written or unwritten, heretofore sponsored or maintained by Unitek (and no amount attributable to any such plan, fund, program or arrangement) shall be transferred to Buyer, and neither Buyer nor Unitek shall be required to continue any such plan, fund, program or arrangement after the Closing Date.  The amounts payable on account of all benefit arrangements shall be determined with reference to the date of the event by reason of which such amounts become payable, without regard to conditions subsequent, and Buyer and Unitek, after the Closing Date, shall not be liable for any claim for insurance, reimbursement or other benefits payable by reason of any event which occurs prior to the Closing Date.  All amounts payable directly to employees, or to any fund, program, arrangement or plan maintained by Unitek therefor shall be paid by Seller within 30 days after the Closing Date to the extent that such payment is not inconsistent with the terms of such fund, program, arrangement or plan.  All employees of Unitek who are employed by Unitek on or after the Closing Date shall be new employees of Unitek and any prior employment by Unitek of such employees shall not affect entitlement to, or the amount of, salary or other cash compensation, current or deferred, which Unitek may make available to its employees.
  
 
 9.4                           Non-Solicitation.  As of the Closing Date, Buyer shall offer employment to, and Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to assist Buyer in employing as new employees of Unitek all persons presently engaged in the Business who are identified by Buyer prior to the Closing Date (the “Employees”).  Until the first anniversary of the Closing Date, Seller will not, and Seller shall cause Seller’s Affiliates to not, directly or indirectly solicit or offer employment to any Employee (i) who did not continue asan employee of Unitek after the Closing Date, or (ii) who is then an employee of Unitek, or (iii) who has terminated such employment without the consent of Buyer within 180 days of such solicitation or offer; provided, however, that this prohibition shall not apply to general solicitations by Seller or Seller’s Affiliates not directed toward any specific person; and provided further, that Seller and Seller’s Affiliates shall not be prohibited from hiring any person who initiates contact with Seller or Seller’s Affiliates about employment.
 
 9.5                           Continuation of Insurance.  Seller shall continue for a period of five years after the Closing Date a policy of insurance naming Unitek as additional insured which policy shall cover any and all professional liability arising out of Seller’s and Unitek’s conduct of the Business prior to the Closing Date.  Such policy shall have at least a $1,000,000 limit per single occurrence and at least a $ 2,000,000 aggregate limit with no deductibles.  Seller upon Buyer’s request shall furnish written evidence of such policy.  Such policy shall require the insurance company to give Buyer at least 30-days’ prior written notice of such policy’s termination.
 
 9.6                           Tax Matters.
 
 (a)                   Tax Returns.
 
 (i)                  Seller shall control the preparation at Seller’s reasonable expense of all Tax returns of Unitek that are due with respect to any taxable year or other taxable period ending on or prior to the Closing Date.  Federal and State tax returns for the period(s) ending before or on the Closing Date shall be completed, and filed by Seller by September 30, 2010 with a copy provided to Buyer.  Buyer shall cause Unitek to cooperate with Seller in filing such Tax returns in a timely manner.  Buyer shall control the preparation of all federal, state or local Tax returns of Unitek for taxable years beginning and ending after the Closing Date.
 
 (ii)                  With respect to any Tax returns the preparation of which is controlled by Seller (as provided above) or that relate to taxable periods beginning before the Closing Date and ending after the Closing Date (the “Overlap Period”), items set forth on such Tax returns shall be treated in a manner consistent with the past practices of Unitek with respect to such items unless otherwise required by law, and such Tax returns shall not be filed without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
  
 
 (iii)                  Seller shall not, and shall not cause or permit Unitek to, file or cause to be filed any amended Tax return or claims for refund with respect to any period ending prior to the Closing Date without the prior written consent of Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, nor shall Buyer file or cause or permit to be filed any amended Tax return or claims for refund for Unitek for any period ending on or prior to the Closing Date or for the Overlap Period, without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
 
 (b)                  Payment of Taxes.  Seller shall be responsible and liable for the timely payment of all Taxes for all periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date and for the portion of the Overlap Period that ends on the Closing Date (“Pre-Closing Periods”).  Except as otherwise provided, all Taxes and Tax liabilities with respect to the income, property or operations of Unitek that relate to the Overlap Period shall be apportioned between Seller and Buyer as determined from the books and records of Unitek as though the taxable year of Unitek terminated at the close of business on the Closing Date.  Buyer shall be liable for Taxes of Unitek that are attributable to the portion of the Overlap Period beginning on the day following the Closing Date and thereafter and for any Taxes of Unitek that are attributable to transactions on the Closing Date that occur after the Closing and out of the ordinary course of business of Unitek.
 
 (c)                  Cooperation and Exchange of Information.  Buyer and Seller will provide each other with such cooperation and information as any of them reasonably may request of the other in filing any Tax return, determining a liability for Taxes or a right to a refund of Taxes, or participating in or conducting any audit or other proceeding in respect of Taxes.
 
 9.7                           Forwarding of E-mails.  Seller agrees to forward to Unitek during the one year period after the Closing all e-mails received by Seller in connection with the Business.  Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to establish a procedure for automatically forwarding such e-mails to Unitek.
 
 10.                           MISCELLANEOUS
 
 10.1                         Survival of Representations and Warranties.  No representations or warranties whatsoever are made by any party, except as specifically set forth in this Agreement, the Exhibits or, in the case of Seller, the Disclosure Schedule.  The representations and warranties made by the parties in this Agreement ­shall survive the Closing for a period of three years; provided, however the three year limitation shall not apply to the representations and warranties made by Seller pursuant to Section 2.16 with respect to the Taxes, and the covenants and agreements to be performed or complied with by the parties under this Agreement shall survive the Closing­ in accordance with their terms.
  
 
 10.2                         Risk of Loss.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Seller shall bear all risk of loss, damage, or destruction to the Assets prior to the Closing Date.  In the event of any such loss, damage or destruction, Seller shall promptly replace or repair any such lost, damaged or destroyed item, or, at Buyer’s option, the consideration payable pursuant to Section 1.2 shall be reduced by an amount reasonably allocated to such item and agreed to by Seller.
 
 10.3                         Further Actions and Assurances.  Each party agrees that upon the request of the other it will, from time to time, execute and deliver to such other party all such instru­ments and documents of further assurance or otherwise, and will do any and all such acts and things as may be reasonably required, to carry out the obligations of such party hereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.
 
 10.4                         Entire Agreement.  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings of the parties in connection therewith.  No supplement, modification or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by the parties hereto.  No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed, or shall constitute, a waiver of any other provision hereof (whether or not similar) nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver and no waiver shall be binding unless executed in writing by the party making the waiver.  The parties hereto, by mutual consent, may amend or modify this Agreement in such manner as may be agreed upon by a written instrument executed by such parties.
 
 10.5                         Assignment.  This Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the parties to it and their respective successors, and assigns; provided, however, that neither Buyer nor Seller may assign any of its rights under this Agreement, except to a wholly owned subsidiary corporation of such party, or to a successor to its business.  No such assignment by Buyer or Seller shall relieve such party of any of its obligations or duties under this Agreement.
 
 10.6                         Specific Performance and Waiver of Rescission Rights.  Each party’s obligation to this Agreement is unique.  If any party should default in its obligations under this Agreement, the parties each acknowledge that it would be extremely imprac­ticable to measure the resulting damages; accordingly, the non-defaulting party or parties, in addition to any other rights or remedies, may sue in equity for specific performance, and the parties each expressly waive the defense that a remedy and damages will be adequate.  Notwithstanding any breach or default by any of the parties by any of their respective representations, warranties, covenants or agreements under this Agreement if the purchase and sale contemplated by it shall be consummated after Closing, each of the parties waives any of rights that it or they may have to rescind this Agreement or the transaction consummated by it; provided, however, that this waiver shall not affect any other rights or remedies available to the parties under this Agreement or under the law.
 
 10.7                         Binding Effect.  Nothing in this Agreement, whether expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any person other than the parties hereto and their respective succes­sors, Affiliates and assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement, nor is anything in this Agreement intended to relieve or discharge the liability of any other entity to either party hereto, nor shall any provision hereof give any entity any right of subrogation against, or action against any party to this Agreement.
  
 
 10.8                         Notices.  All notices, requests, demands and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given upon the date of such service if served personally upon the party for whom intended, or if mailed by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to such party at its address as hereinafter shown, or as otherwise designated by such party in writing:

 10.18                       Dispute Resolution.
 
 (a)                  Mediation.  The parties agree to submit any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement that cannot be settled through negotiation to mediation prior to commencing arbitration pursuant to Section 10.18(b).  The parties will attempt in good faith to agree on a neutral mediator to resolve the dispute.  The mediation will follow the procedures set forth in the American Arbitration Association Commercial Mediation Rules.  If the parties cannot agree on a mediator within 20 days after mediation has been demanded, they will submit the dispute for mediation to be administered by the American Arbitration Association under the Commercial Mediation Rules.  Neither party may commence or pursue arbitration or litigation until this non-binding mediation has been conducted and concluded.  The parties agree that, upon initiating mediation, they will agree with the mediator on a time at least five days before the mediation to submit and exchange with one another detailed position papers.  The position papers shall include a factual recitation of the dispute, each party’s position on the facts and the law, the party’s assessment of the likely outcome and its/their position on settlement.  Each party will bear its own expenses incurred (including attorneys’ fees) in connection with the mediation, and will equally share the mediator’s fees and expenses.
 
 (b)                  Arbitration.  If the parties are unable to resolve their dispute by mediation pursuant to Section 10.16(a), the dispute shall be settled by arbitration in Delaware in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, and judgment on the award ordered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.  The prevailing party in the arbitration will be entitled to recover reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs.
