IMPORTANT NOTICE

The Corporation will furnish to any stockholder, on request and without charge, a full statement of the information required by Section 2-211(b) of the Maryland General Corporation Law with respect to the designations and any preferences, conversion and other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends and other distributions, qualifications, and terms and conditions of redemption of the stock of each class which the Corporation has authority to issue and, if the Corporation is authorized to issue any preferred or special class in series, (i) the differences in the relative rights and preferences between the shares of each series to the extent set, and (ii) the authority  of the Board of Directors to set such rights and preferences of subsequent series.  The foregoing summary does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the Charter, a copy of which will be sent without charge to each stockholder who so requests.  Such request must be made to the Secretary of the Corporation at its principal office.

The securities represented by this Certificate are subject to restrictions on ownership and Transfer for the purpose of the Corporation's maintenance of its status as a "Real Estate Investment Trust" under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  Except as otherwise provided pursuant to the Charter of the Corporation, no Person may Beneficially Own or Constructively Own Equity Stock in excess of 9.8% (in value or in number of shares of Equity Stock, whichever is more restrictive) of the outstanding Equity Stock of the Corporation, with further restrictions and exceptions set forth in the Charter of the Corporation.  There may be no Transfer that would cause a violation of the Ownership Limit, that would result in Equity Stock of the Corporation being Beneficially Owned by fewer than 100 Persons, that would result in the Corporation's being "closely held" under Section 856(h) of the Code, or that would otherwise result in the Corporation failing to qualify as a REIT.  Any Person who attempts or proposes to own, Beneficially Own or Constructively Own Equity Stock in excess of, or in violation of, the above limitations must notify the Corporation in writing at least 15 days prior to such proposed or attempted Transfer to such Person.  If an attempt is made to violate these restrictions on Transfers, (i) any Purported Transfer will be void and will not be recognized by the Corporation, (ii) the Corporation will have the right to redeem the Stock proposed to be Transferred, and (iii) the Stock represented hereby generally will be automatically converted into and exchanged for Excess Stock, which will be held in trust by the Trustee in part for the benefit of a Charitable Beneficiary.  All capitalized terms in this legend have the meanings defined in the Charter of the Corporation, a copy of which, including the restrictions on ownership and Transfer, will be sent without charge to each stockholder who directs a request for such information to the Chairman of the Board of the Corporation.CFO Services Agreement

STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT
THIS STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this "Agreement"), dated as of January 23, 2018, is made by and among Vectrus Systems Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Purchaser"), SENTEL Corporation, a Virginia corporation (the "Acquired Company"), R&R Enterprises, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Seller"), and Russell T. Wright (“Seller Shareholder”).  Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings set forth in Article XII below.
WHEREAS, Seller Shareholder owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Seller;
WHEREAS, the Seller owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Acquired Company (the "Shares"); and
WHEREAS, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Purchaser desires to purchase from the Seller, and the Seller desires to sell to the Purchaser, all of the Shares in exchange for the consideration set forth herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
PURCHASE AND SALE OF THE SHARES
1.01    Basic Transaction.  On and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Closing, the Purchaser agrees to purchase from the Seller, and the Seller agrees to sell to the Purchaser, all of the Shares owned by the Seller for the consideration specified below in this Article I.
1.02    Purchase and Sale of Shares.
(a)    Estimated Purchase Price.  The "Estimated Purchase Price" means (i) $36,000,000 (the "Base Value"), plus (ii) the amount, if any, by which Estimated Net Working Capital exceeds Target Working Capital, minus (iii) the amount, if any, by which Target Working Capital exceeds Estimated Net Working Capital, plus (iv) the total amount of Estimated Cash on Hand, minus (v) the total amount of Estimated Indebtedness, minus (vi) the Estimated Company Transaction Expenses. 
(b)    Purchase and Sale of Shares.  At the Closing, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Seller shall sell, assign, transfer and convey to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall purchase and acquire from the Seller, all of the Shares for and in consideration of the Estimated Purchase Price (less the Indemnity Escrow Amount).
1.03    The Closing.  The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the "Closing") shall take place by conference call and electronic (i.e., email/pdf) correspondence on the second business day following full satisfaction or due waiver of all of the closing conditions set forth in Article II hereof (other than those to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction of those conditions) or on such other date as is mutually agreeable to the Purchaser and the Seller.  The date of the Closing is referred to herein as the "Closing Date."

1.04    The Closing Transactions.  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the parties shall consummate the following transactions on the Closing Date:
(a)    the Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Purchaser:
(i)    all of the stock certificates evidencing the Shares, duly endorsed for transfer or accompanied by duly executed stock powers or an express indemnity in the Agreed Form in the case of any certificate found to be missing;
(ii)    a letter of resignation in the Agreed Form from Seller Shareholder as an officer and director of any Member of the Company Group; 
(iii)    evidence that all intercompany liabilities between the Company Group, on one hand, and the Seller and its Affiliates and their respective family members, on the other hand, have been settled; and
(iv)    a copy of the resolutions of the board of directors of the Acquired Company approving the transactions contemplated hereby.
(b)    the Purchaser shall deliver to the Seller the Estimated Purchase Price less the Indemnity Escrow Amount by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) designated by the Seller (which account(s) shall be designated by the Seller to the Purchaser in writing at least two business days before the Closing Date);
(c)    the Acquired Company shall deliver to the Purchaser appropriate payoff letters from the holders of Indebtedness set forth on the Indebtedness Payoff Schedule attached hereto;
(d)    the Purchaser shall repay, or cause to be repaid, on behalf of the Company Group and pursuant to the payoff letters delivered pursuant to Section 1.04(c), all amounts necessary to discharge fully the then outstanding balance of the Indebtedness set forth on the Indebtedness Payoff Schedule, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) designated by the holders of such Indebtedness; 
(e)    the Purchaser shall pay on behalf of the Company Group the Estimated Company Transaction Expenses;
(f)    the Purchaser shall deliver the Indemnity Escrow Amount by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Escrow Agent; 
(g)    the Company Group shall provide evidence that the Acquired Company has taken such actions, approved by the Purchaser (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), as required by Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix)(B) to provide for (a) termination of the Sentel Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan and any other plan required to be aggregate with such plan under Code Section 409A (collectively, “SENTEL DCPs”); (b) removal of all special post-change in control provisions from the SENTEL DCPs; and (c) payment of all benefits due under the SENTEL DCPs on or as soon as practical after the Closing Date; 
(h)    the Acquired Company shall pay to the employees, former employees, and independent consultants of the Members of the Company Group (i) all annual bonuses and other bonuses relating to periods ending on the Closing Date and (ii) all bonuses and other payments, 

2

including payments under Management Incentive Interest Award Agreements, relating to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and 
(i)    the Purchaser and the Seller shall make such other deliveries as are required by Article II hereof.
1.05    Purchase Price Adjustments.
(a)    At least two business days prior to the Closing Date, the Acquired Company shall deliver to the Purchaser a good faith estimate of Net Working Capital (the "Estimated Net Working Capital"), Cash on Hand (the "Estimated Cash on Hand"), Indebtedness (the "Estimated Indebtedness"), and Company Transaction Expenses (the “Estimated Company Transaction Expenses”) and the resulting calculation of the Estimated Purchase Price.
(b)    As promptly as possible, but in any event within sixty days after the Closing Date, the Purchaser will deliver to the Seller a statement showing the Purchaser's calculation of Net Working Capital, Cash on Hand, Indebtedness, and Company Transaction Expenses (the "Preliminary Closing Statement").  The Preliminary Closing Statement shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP or in accordance with this Agreement if different from GAAP, applied on a basis consistent with the methods, policies, practices, procedures, classifications and estimation techniques used in the preparation of the Audited Financial Statements.  The parties agree that the purpose of preparing the Preliminary Closing Statement and determining Net Working Capital, Cash on Hand, Indebtedness, and Company Transaction Expenses and the related purchase price adjustments contemplated by this Section 1.05(b) is to measure changes in Net Working Capital and the levels of Cash on Hand, Indebtedness, and Company Transaction Expenses as of Closing, and such processes are not intended to permit the introduction of different judgments, accounting methods, policies, principles, practices, procedures, classifications or estimation methodologies as those used in the preparation of the Audited Financial Statements.  After delivery of the Preliminary Closing Statement, the Purchaser shall give the Seller and its accountants reasonable access to review the Purchaser's and the Company Group's books and records and work papers related to the preparation of the Preliminary Closing Statement.  The Seller and its accountants may make inquiries of the Purchaser and its Subsidiaries (including the Company Group) and their respective accountants regarding questions concerning or disagreements with the Preliminary Closing Statement arising in the course of its review thereof, and the Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, cause any such accountants to cooperate with and promptly respond to such inquiries.  If the Seller has any objections to the Preliminary Closing Statement, the Seller shall deliver to the Purchaser a statement setting forth its objections thereto (an "Objections Statement").  If an Objections Statement is not delivered to the Purchaser within thirty days after delivery of the Preliminary Closing Statement, the Preliminary Closing Statement shall be final, binding and non-appealable.  The Seller and the Purchaser shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any such objections, but if they do not reach a final resolution within thirty days after the delivery of the Objections Statement, the Seller and the Purchaser shall submit such dispute to KPMG LLP or such other mutually acceptable dispute resolution firm (the "Dispute Resolution Firm").  Any further submissions to the Dispute Resolution Firm must be written and delivered to each party to the dispute.  The Dispute Resolution Firm shall consider only those items and amounts which are identified in the Objections Statement as being items which the Seller and the Purchaser are unable to resolve.  The Dispute Resolution Firm's determination will be based solely on the definitions of Net Working Capital, Cash on Hand, Indebtedness, and Company Transaction Expenses, as applicable, contained in this Agreement.  The Seller and the Purchaser shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Dispute Resolution Firm to resolve all 

3

disagreements as soon as practicable and in any event within forty-five days after the submission of any dispute.  Further, the Dispute Resolution Firm's determination shall be based solely on the submissions by the Purchaser and the Seller which are in accordance with the terms and procedures set forth in this Agreement, and not on the basis of an independent review.  The resolution of the dispute by the Dispute Resolution Firm shall be final, binding and non-appealable.  The costs and expenses of the Dispute Resolution Firm shall be allocated based upon the percentage which the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each party bears to the amount actually contested by such party in the presentation to the Dispute Resolution Firm; however, the Seller and the Purchaser shall equally advance any costs and expenses of the Dispute Resolution Firm that are payable prior to rendering a determination.  For example, if the Seller submits an Objections Statement for $1,000, and if the Purchaser contests only $500 of the amount claimed by the Seller, and if the Dispute Resolution Firm ultimately resolves the dispute by awarding the Seller $300 of the $500 contested, then the costs and expenses of the Dispute Resolution Firm will be allocated 60% (i.e., 300/500) to the Purchaser and 40% (i.e., 200/500) to the Seller.
(c)    Post-Closing Adjustment.
(i)    If the Final Purchase Price is greater than the Estimated Purchase Price, the Purchaser shall promptly (but in any event within five business days after the determination of the Final Purchase Price) deliver to the Seller the amount of such excess, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by the Seller.
(ii)    If the Final Purchase Price is less than the Estimated Purchase Price, the Seller shall promptly (but in any event within five business days after the determination of the Final Purchase Price) deliver to the Purchaser the amount of such shortfall, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the Seller. 
1.06    Withholding Rights.  The Purchaser or its designee and the Company Group shall be entitled to withhold and deduct from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as such Person is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax law; provided that if the Purchaser, the Acquired Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries determines that an amount is required to be deducted and withheld, at least two business days prior to the date the applicable payment is scheduled to be made, the Purchaser shall provide the Seller with written notice of the intent to deduct and withhold, which shall include a copy of the calculation of the amount to be deducted and withheld and any applicable provision of state, local or foreign Tax law pursuant to which such deduction and withholding is required and provide the recipient of such payment a reasonable opportunity for such recipient to provide forms or other evidence that would exempt such amounts from withholding.  To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate Tax authority, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding were made.
        ARTICLE II     
 
CONDITIONS TO CLOSING
2.01    Conditions to the Obligations of the Purchaser.  The obligations of the Purchaser to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are subject to the satisfaction (or waiver by the Purchaser in writing) of the following conditions as of the Closing:

4

CERTAIN COVENANTS
8.01    Access to Books and Records.  From and after the Closing, the Purchaser shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, provide the Seller and its authorized representatives with reasonable access, during normal business hours, to the books and records and personnel of the Company Group in connection with any matter relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or with respect to periods or occurrences prior to or on the Closing Date, including for the purpose of preparing final Tax Returns and providing assistance relating to final accounting functions relating to the Company Group or any member thereof.  Unless otherwise consented to in writing by the Seller, the Purchaser shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, for a period of six years following the Closing Date (or, with respect to any Tax records, if later, the period during which the relevant statute of limitations remains open), destroy, alter or otherwise dispose of any of the books and records of any of its Subsidiaries relating to the Business for any period prior to the Closing without first giving reasonable prior notice to the Seller and offering to surrender to the Seller such books and records or any portion thereof which the Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries may intend to destroy, alter or dispose of.

27

8.02    Director and Officer Liability and Indemnification.  For a period of six years after the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall not, and shall not permit any Member of the Company Group to amend, repeal or modify any provision in the organizational documents of any Member of the Company Group relating to the exculpation or indemnification of any current or former officer or director (the "D&O Indemnified Persons") (unless required by law), it being the intent of the parties that the D&O Indemnified Persons shall continue to be entitled to such exculpation and indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by law.  At the Closing, the Purchaser shall, or shall cause the Acquired Company to, on behalf of the Company Group, obtain, maintain and fully pay for irrevocable "tail" insurance policies naming the D&O Indemnified Persons as direct beneficiaries with a claims period of at least six years from the Closing Date from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Acquired Company's current insurance carrier with respect to directors' liability insurance in an amount and scope at least as favorable as the Acquired Company's existing policies with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Closing Date.  The Purchaser shall not, and shall cause each Member of the Company Group not to, cancel or change such insurance policies in any respect.  If the Purchaser, any Member of the Company Group or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) shall consolidate with or merge into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) shall transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provisions shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the Purchaser and the Company Group shall assume all of the obligations set forth in this Section 8.02.  The provisions of this Section 8.02 are intended for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each D&O Indemnified Person and his or her heirs and representatives, and are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such person may have had by contract or otherwise.
8.03    Conditions.  The Purchaser shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the conditions set forth in Section 2.02 to be satisfied and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby as soon as reasonably possible after the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Article II (other than those to be satisfied at the Closing).
8.04    Contact with Employees, Customers and Suppliers.  Prior to the Closing, the Purchaser and the Purchaser's Representatives shall contact and communicate with the employees, customers and suppliers of the Company Group in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby only after prior consultation with and written approval of the Seller, Seller Shareholder, or Acquired Company.
8.05    Employment and Benefit Arrangements.  From and after the Closing and solely to the extent disclosed or made available to the Purchaser in the Intralinks data site prior to the Closing, the Purchaser shall cause the Company Group to honor all employment, consulting, retirement and other compensation and benefit plans, arrangements and agreements to which the Company Group is a party with respect to employees of the Company Group, as such plans, arrangements and agreements are in effect on the date hereof. The Purchaser shall cause the Company Group to provide severance and termination arrangements and agreements to which the Company Group is a party with respect to the employees of the Company Group; provided that such arrangements and agreement do not require the payment of more than two weeks’ salary for each full year of employment with the Company Group. This Section 8.05 shall not be deemed to prohibit the Purchaser or the Company Group from amending, modifying, replacing, or terminating the plans, arrangements, or agreements referred to in the first two sentences of this Section 8.05 in accordance with their terms and applicable Law, subject to the Purchaser’s obligations under this Section 8.05 provided, however, that until December 31, 2018, Purchaser shall cause the Company and its Subsidiary to offer employees who are terminated without cause, severance of two weeks salary (or wages) for each full year of employment with the Company Group. The Purchaser shall take all actions required so that employees of the Company Group as of the Closing shall receive service credit for periods of employment with the 

28

Company Group for eligibility and vesting purposes and for purposes of determining future vacation accruals and severance amounts under any employee benefit plans and arrangements in which they participate following the Closing. Until December 31, 2018, the Purchaser shall cause the Company Group to maintain the welfare benefit plan coverage provided prior to the Closing in all material respects. This Section 8.05 shall survive the Closing, and shall be binding on all successors and assigns of the Purchaser and the Company Group.  Until December 31, 2018, the Purchaser shall take all actions required so that the employees of the Company Group (determined as of the Closing) (i) receive base compensation and bonus opportunities that are no less favorable individually and in the aggregate than that provided immediately prior to the Closing, (ii) receive benefits that, in the aggregate, are substantially comparable to those benefits provided to such employees immediately prior to the Closing, and (iii) who involuntarily terminate employment from the Company Group during such period receive severance compensation and benefits that are no less favorable than those which would have been payable as a result of involuntary termination of employment under the severance plans, policies, agreements or arrangements that applied to such employees immediately prior to the Closing to the extent such compensation, bonus opportunities, benefits, severance plans, policies, agreements, or arrangements under (i), (ii), and (iii) have been disclosed or made available to the Purchaser in the Intralinks data site prior to the Closing. To the extent this Section 8.05 conflicts with an employment letter or retention letter, the employment letter or retention letter governs and controls. 
8.06    Employee Layoffs.  Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties in Sections 3.13(i) and 3.17(j), for a period of ninety days after the Closing Date, neither the Purchaser nor the Acquired Company shall, and neither shall permit any Member of the Company Group to, terminate employees of the Company Group, except in full compliance with all requirements of the WARN Act or any similar requirements under local or foreign Law.  The Purchaser and the Acquired Company shall, and shall cause the Members of the Company Group to, comply with any and all applicable notice or filing requirements under the WARN Act or any similar requirements under local or foreign Law, and will indemnify and hold harmless the Seller from any liabilities, losses, damages, obligations, costs or expenses, arising as a result of or related to, in whole or in part, the Purchaser's or the Acquired Company's actions or omissions occurring on or after the Closing Date.
8.07    Corporate Headquarters Lease.  Subsequent to Closing, Purchaser and the Company Group shall use their reasonable best efforts to have the landlord for the Corporate Headquarters Lease agree to the assignment of such lease from the Seller to the Purchaser and the Acquired Company and the release of the Seller from any ongoing obligations thereunder.  Subsequent to Closing, the Purchaser shall pay or cause the Acquired Company to pay all lease and other payments under the Corporate Headquarters Lease in accordance with the terms of the Corporate Headquarters Lease and the Purchaser and the Acquired Company shall comply with all the terms, conditions and obligations of the Corporate Headquarters Lease as if it was the tenant thereunder.  In the event that within 30 days of the date hereof the Purchaser and the Company Group have not had the Corporate Headquarters Lease assigned as contemplated herein (and the Seller released from any ongoing obligations thereunder) at the Seller’s request, the Purchaser and the Acquired Company, as subtenants, will enter into a sublease with the Seller that fully incorporates all of the terms, conditions and obligations of the Corporate Headquarters Lease.

INDEMNIFICATION
9.01    Survival of Representations, Warranties, Covenants, Agreements and Other Provisions. Except to the extent a different period is expressly set forth herein, the representations, warranties, covenants (other than with respect to the covenants contained in Section 11.01, which shall survive until the obligations 

29

set forth therein are fully performed in accordance with the terms thereof, or, if earlier, the date that is thirty (30) days after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations), agreements and other provisions in this Agreement shall survive the Closing and shall terminate on the date which is twelve months after the Closing Date provided, however, that  the representations and warranties of the Acquired Company set forth in Section 3.01(a) (Organization and Power), Section 3.02(a) (Subsidiaries), Section 3.03 (Authorization; No Breach; Valid and Binding Agreement), Section 3.04 (Capital Stock), Section 3.08 (Tax Matters), Section 3.14 (Employee Benefit Plans), and Section 3.20 (Broker’s Fees) (collectively, the “Fundamental Representations”) shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and shall continue in full force and effect for a period thereafter ending on the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Closing Date (the twelve month or six year anniversary, the "Survival Period Termination Date"). No Person shall be liable for any claim for indemnification under this Article IX unless written notice specifying in reasonable detail the facts, circumstances and nature of the claim for indemnification is delivered by the Person seeking indemnification to the Person from whom indemnification is sought prior to the Survival Period Termination Date, in which case the representation, warranty, covenant or agreement which is the subject of such claim shall survive, only to the extent of such claim, until such claim is resolved.
9.02    Indemnification from the Indemnity Escrow Account for the Benefit of the Purchaser.
(a)    From and after the Closing (but subject to the provisions of this Article IX), the Seller and Seller Shareholder shall, jointly and severally, indemnify the Purchaser in respect of any Loss suffered or incurred by the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, officers, directors, employees or agents (each a "Purchaser Indemnified Party" and collectively, the "Purchaser Indemnified Parties") resulting from or arising out of (i) the breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by the Acquired Company in Article III (Representations and Warranties of the Acquired Company), by the Seller in Article IV (Representation and Warranties of the Seller), or the Seller Shareholder in Article V (Representations and Warranties of the Seller Shareholder); or (ii) the breach by the Seller or the Acquired Company of any covenant or agreement to be performed by it under this Agreement.
(b)    No Purchaser Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover for an indemnification claim under Section 9.02(a)(i), other than for breaches of or inaccuracies with respect to Fundamental Representations, unless and until the aggregate amount of Losses that would otherwise be payable hereunder exceeds on a cumulative basis an amount equal to $250,000 (the "Deductible"), and then only to the extent such Losses exceed the Deductible.  
(c)    Amounts available in the Indemnity Escrow Account shall be the sole source of recourse against the Seller or Seller Shareholder for Losses suffered or incurred by Purchaser Indemnified Parties to the extent arising from any nonfulfillment or breach of any representation or warranty other than a Fundamental Representation.  The maximum aggregate liability of Seller or the Seller Shareholder for Losses related to indemnification claims hereunder, including claims arising from any nonfulfillment or breach of any Fundamental Representation, shall not exceed the Final Purchase Price.
(d)    The Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall have no right to indemnification hereunder with respect to any Loss to the extent such Loss is included in the calculation of any component of Final Purchase Price or if the Purchaser shall have received a reduction in the Final Closing Statement on account of any matter forming the basis for such Loss.

30

(e)    All payments pursuant to this Article IX shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the proceeds payable to the Seller pursuant to Section 1.02 hereof.
(f)    (i) Except for the Purchaser pursuant to the terms hereof, no Person (including the Seller or any of its respective Affiliates) shall have any obligation to fund the Indemnity Escrow Account, (ii) except for the amount in respect of which the Purchaser shall have, prior to the Survival Period Termination Date, previously made a claim pursuant to the procedures set forth in this Article IX and for which the obligations to indemnify, if any, shall not have been satisfied from the Indemnity Escrow Amount (the "Outstanding Escrow Claims"), title and all rights to all funds in the Indemnity Escrow Account shall automatically transfer to the Seller on the Survival Period Termination Date, and (iii) the Purchaser shall take all actions reasonably necessary to cause the Escrow Agent to release all funds in the Indemnity Escrow Account, less the amount of the Outstanding Escrow Claims, to the Seller on the business day following the twelve-month Survival Period Termination Date.  As soon as the Outstanding Escrow Claims are resolved pursuant to the procedures set forth in this Article IX, the Purchaser shall cause the Escrow Agent to release any remaining cash held by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement to the Seller.
9.03    Indemnification by the Purchaser for the Benefit of the Seller.  From and after the Closing (but subject to the provisions of this Article IX), the Seller shall be entitled to assert, as its sole and exclusive remedy for any action relating (directly or indirectly) to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and only in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, claims against the Purchaser in respect of any Loss suffered or incurred by the Seller, or any of its respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees or agents ("Seller Indemnified Parties") to the extent arising from any nonfulfillment or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or other provision set forth herein or in any or certificate delivered hereunder by the Purchaser or, following the Closing, by the Acquired Company.
9.04    Mitigation.  Each Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall take commercially reasonable steps to mitigate all Losses, costs and expenses as required by applicable Law.
9.05    Defense of Third Party Claims.  Any Person making a claim for indemnification under Section 9.02 or Section 9.03 (an "Indemnitee") shall notify the indemnifying party (an "Indemnitor") of the claim in writing promptly after receiving written notice of any action, lawsuit, proceeding, investigation or other claim against it (if by a third party), describing the claim, the amount thereof (if known and quantifiable) and the basis therefor.  Any Indemnitor shall, subject to the right of any insurer under a representation and warranty insurance policy, be entitled to participate in the defense of such action, lawsuit, proceeding, investigation or other claim giving rise to an Indemnitee's claim for indemnification at such Indemnitor's expense and, subject to the right of any insurer under a representation and warranty insurance policy, at such Indemnitor's option, shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof by appointing a reputable counsel to be the lead counsel in connection with such defense; provided that such Indemnitor shall continue to be entitled to assert any limitation on any claims contained herein; provided further that the Indemnitee shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose; provided, however, that the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be borne by the Indemnitee.  If the Indemnitor shall control the defense of any such claim, the Indemnitor shall, subject to the right of any insurer under a representation and warranty insurance policy, be entitled to settle such claim; provided that the Indemnitor shall obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnitee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed) before entering into any settlement of a claim or ceasing to defend such claim if, pursuant to or as a result of such settlement or cessation, injunctive or other equitable relief will be imposed against the Indemnitee or if such settlement does not expressly and unconditionally release the Indemnitee from all liabilities and obligations with respect to such claim.  If the Indemnitor assumes the 

31

defense of and/or settles or compromises any third party claim as provided herein and the Deductible applies to such claim and has not been met with respect to the Indemnitor's liability under Section 9.02, then (1) until such time as the Deductible has been met, the Indemnitee will promptly reimburse the Indemnitor for any out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including attorney's fees) incurred in the assumption of such defense and (2) if the settlement or compromise of such third party claim is equal to or less than the remaining Deductible at such time (after taking into account any reimbursements pursuant to clause (1) above), then within five business days after the settlement or compromise of such claim, the Indemnitee shall pay to the Indemnitor the aggregate amount of the third party claim settled or compromised up to the amount of the then remaining Deductible.  In no event will an Indemnitee consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to any third party claim for which an Indemnitee is seeking indemnification hereunder without the prior written consent of the Indemnitor.
9.06    Determination of Loss Amount. 
(a)    The amount of any Loss subject to indemnification under Section 9.02 or Section 9.03 shall be calculated net of any insurance proceeds (net of direct collection expenses) or any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment received by the Indemnitee or its Affiliates from any third party with respect thereto. The Indemnitee shall seek full recovery under all insurance policies covering any Loss to the same extent as they would if such Loss were not subject to indemnification hereunder; provided that seeking such coverage shall not be a condition to Indemnitee making a claim for indemnification under this Agreement.  In the event that an insurance or other recovery is made by any Indemnitee with respect to any Loss for which any such Person has been indemnified hereunder, then a refund equal to the aggregate amount of the recovery shall be made promptly to the Indemnitor.  To the extent allowed under the terms of the applicable insurance policies, the Indemnitors shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnitees and their Affiliates in respect of any Losses indemnified by the Indemnitors.  
(b)    The Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall have no right to indemnification hereunder with respect to any Loss to the extent such Loss is attributable to (i) Taxes that result from any breach of the covenant in Section 11.01(d); (ii) Taxes attributable to any transaction or action outside of the Ordinary Course of Business taken, caused or requested by the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates that occur on or after the Closing; (iii) Transfer Taxes that are the responsibility of Purchaser pursuant to Section 11.01(c), or (iv) the unavailability in any taxable period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing Date of any Tax attribute of the Acquired Company or any of its Subsidiaries.  
9.07    Manner of Payment.  Any indemnification of the Seller Indemnified Parties pursuant to this Article IX shall be effected by wire transfer of immediately available funds from the Purchaser to an account designated by the Indemnitee within ten days after the determination thereof.
9.08    Acknowledgment; No Reliance. 
(a)    The representations and warranties of the Acquired Company expressly set forth in Article III of this Agreement and the representations and warranties of the Seller expressly set forth in Article V of this Agreement constitute the sole and exclusive representations and warranties made to the Purchaser, its Affiliates or any other Person in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Purchaser, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates, acknowledges and agrees that any other representations and warranties of any kind or nature, express or implied (including any relating to the future or historical financial condition or position, results of operations, assets or liabilities of the Company Group, or the quality or condition of the Company Group's assets), are specifically disclaimed by the Seller and 

32

the Acquired Company and shall not form the basis of any claim against the Seller, its members, or any of their respective Affiliates, the Indemnity Escrow Account, any other Person or otherwise.  Without limiting the foregoing, the Purchaser, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates, acknowledges and agrees that neither the Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates has relied on any representations or warranties whatsoever, whether express or implied, other than the representations and warranties of the Acquired Company expressly set forth in Article III of this Agreement and the representations and warranties of the Seller expressly set forth in Article IV of this Agreement.  In furtherance of the foregoing, the Purchaser acknowledges, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates, that the Purchaser and its Affiliates have conducted, to their respective satisfactions, an independent investigation of the financial condition and position, results of operations, assets, liabilities, properties and projected operations of the Company Group and, in making its determination to proceed with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Purchaser and its Affiliates have relied only on the results of its own independent investigation and the representations and warranties of the Acquired Company expressly set forth in Article III of this Agreement and the representations and warranties of the Seller expressly set forth in Article IV of this Agreement.  In connection with the Purchaser's and its Affiliates' investigation of the Company Group, the Purchaser and its Affiliates have received certain projections, including projected statements of operating revenues and income from operations of the Company Group, and certain business plan information.  The Purchaser acknowledges, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates, that there are uncertainties inherent in attempting to make such estimates, projections and other forecasts and plans, that the Purchaser and its Affiliates are familiar with such uncertainties and that the Purchaser and its Affiliates are taking full responsibility for making their own evaluation of the adequacy and accuracy of all estimates, projections and other forecasts and plans so furnished to them, including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections and forecasts.  Accordingly, the Purchaser, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates, hereby acknowledges that none of the Seller, the Seller Shareholder, any Member of the Company Group or any other Person is making any representation or warranty with respect to such estimates, projections and other forecasts and plans, including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections and forecasts, and that neither the Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates has relied on any such estimates, projections or other forecasts or plans.  The Purchaser further agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates, that (i) none of the Seller, the Acquired Company or any other Person will have or be subject to any liability to the Purchaser, its Affiliates or any other Person resulting from the distribution to the Purchaser or any other Person, or the Purchaser's use of, any such information, including any information, document or material made available to the Purchaser or any other Person in certain "data rooms," management presentations or any other form in expectation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (ii) the Purchaser and such other Persons have not relied on any such information. 
Each party acknowledges and agrees that, from and after the Closing (except for actions seeking equitable relief pursuant to Section 13.13 and disputes under Sections 1.05 or 11.01(h), which disputes will be resolved in accordance with the dispute mechanism set forth in such Sections), its sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all rights, claims and causes of action it may have against any other party, any member of the Seller or any of their respective Affiliates relating to the operation of the Company Group or its businesses, or resulting from or relating to the subject matter of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, whether arising under or based upon any law or otherwise, shall be pursuant to the indemnification and escrow recovery provisions set forth in this Article IX.
9.09    Other Indemnification Matters.  For purposes of determining whether there has been any breach or inaccuracy of a representation or warranty, and for purposes of determining the amount of Losses resulting therefrom, all qualifications or exceptions in any representation or warranty relating to or referring 

33

to the terms “material,” “materiality,” “in all material respects,” “material adverse effect,” “Material Adverse Effect” or any similar term or phrase shall be disregarded, it being the understanding of the Parties that for purposes of determining liability under this ARTICLE IX, the representations and warranties of the Parties contained in this Agreement shall be read as if such terms and phrases were not included; provided, that the foregoing shall not apply in determining whether Schedules 3.09(a), 3.10(b)(1),  3.13(b), or 3.17(a) correctly list contracts, licenses, obligations or similar items based on the “materiality” of such items.

Seller shall satisfy (or cause to be satisfied) such Taxes if and to the extent such Taxes are not covered by the Representation and Warranty insurance policy and the Indemnity Escrow Account is not adequate to cover such Taxes.

13.04    Assignment.  This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns, except that neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder may be assigned or delegated by either the Purchaser, on the one hand, or the Acquired Company or the Seller, on the other hand, without the prior written consent of the other party.
13.05    Severability.  Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of 

47

such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.
13.06    References.  The table of contents and the section and other headings and subheadings contained in this Agreement and the exhibits hereto are solely for the purpose of reference, are not part of the agreement of the parties, and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement or any exhibit hereto.  All references to days or months shall be deemed references to calendar days or months.  All references to "$" shall be deemed references to United States dollars.  Unless the context otherwise requires, any reference to a "Section," "Exhibit," "Disclosure Schedule" or "Schedule" shall be deemed to refer to a section of this Agreement, exhibit to this Agreement or a schedule to this Agreement, as applicable.  The words "hereof," "herein" and "hereunder" and words of similar import referring to this Agreement refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement.  English shall be the governing language of this Agreement.  The word "including" means "including, without limitation."
13.07    Construction and Disclosure.  Each of the Purchaser, the Seller and the Acquired Company confirms that its and its counsel have reviewed, negotiated and adopted this Agreement as the joint agreement and understanding of the parties, and the language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any Person.  The specification of any dollar amount or the inclusion of any item in the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or the Schedules is not intended to imply that the amounts, or higher or lower amounts, or the items so included, or other items, are or are not required to be disclosed (including whether such amounts or items are required to be disclosed as material or threatened) or are within or outside of the Ordinary Course of Business, and no party shall use the fact of the setting of the amounts or the fact of the inclusion of any item in this Agreement or the Schedules in any dispute or controversy between the parties as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described or included in this Agreement or in any Schedule is or is not required to be disclosed (including whether the amount or items are required to be disclosed as material or threatened) or is within or outside of the Ordinary Course of Business for purposes of this Agreement.  The information contained in this Agreement and in the Schedules hereto is disclosed solely for purposes of this Agreement, and no information contained herein or therein shall be deemed to be an admission by any party of any matter whatsoever (including any violation of law or breach of contract).  The Schedules and the information and disclosures contained therein are intended only to qualify and limit the representations, warranties and covenants of the Acquired Company and the Seller contained in this Agreement and shall not be deemed to expand in any way the scope or effect of any of such representations, warranties or covenants.  In disclosing the information in the Schedules, neither the Seller, nor the Acquired Company waives any attorney-client privilege associated with such information or any protection afforded by the work-product doctrine with respect to any of the matters disclosed or discussed therein.  The disclosures in the Schedules are to be taken as relating to the representations and warranties as a whole, notwithstanding the fact that the Schedules are arranged by sections corresponding to the sections in this Agreement, or that a particular section of this Agreement makes reference to a specific section of the Schedules, and notwithstanding that a particular representation and warranty may not make a reference to the Schedules.  Disclosure of an item on one Schedule shall be deemed disclosed on all other Schedules to the extent its relevance is reasonably apparent.  Capitalized terms used in the Schedules and not otherwise defined therein have the meanings given to them in this Agreement.  Time is of the essence in the performance of each of the parties' respective obligations contained herein. 
13.08    Amendment and Waiver.  Any provision of this Agreement or the Disclosure Schedules or Exhibits hereto may be amended or waived only in a writing signed by the Purchaser and the Seller.  No 

48

waiver of any provision hereunder or any breach or default thereof shall extend to or affect in any way any other provision or prior or subsequent breach or default.
13.09    Complete Agreement.  This Agreement and the documents referred to herein (including the Escrow Agreement and Confidentiality Agreement) contain the complete agreement between the parties and supersede any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or between the parties, written or oral, which may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way.
13.10    Third-Party Beneficiaries.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, nothing expressed or referred to in this Agreement will be construed to give any Person other than the parties to this Agreement any legal or equitable right, remedy, or claim under or with respect to this Agreement or any provision of this Agreement. For avoidance of doubt, nothing in Section 8.05 conveys any legal or equitable right, remedy, or claim to or for any employee of the Company Group.
13.11    Waiver of Trial by Jury.  EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, REGARDLESS OF WHICH PARTY INITIATES SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING.
13.12    Purchaser Deliveries.  The Purchaser agrees and acknowledges that all documents or other items delivered or made available to the Purchaser's Representatives (including by posting to any virtual data rooms managed by or on behalf of the Seller and/or the Acquired Company) shall be deemed to be delivered or made available, as the case may be, to the Purchaser for all purposes hereunder.
13.13    Specific Performance.  Each of the parties acknowledges that the rights of each party to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby are unique and recognize and affirm that in the event of a breach of this Agreement by any party, money damages may be inadequate and the non-breaching party may have no adequate remedy at law.  Accordingly, the parties agree that such non-breaching party shall have the right, in addition to any other rights and remedies existing in its favor at law or in equity, to enforce its rights and the other parties' obligations hereunder not only by an action or actions for damages but also by an action or actions for specific performance, injunctive and/or other equitable relief (without posting of bond or other security).
13.14    Delivery by Electronic Mail.  This Agreement and any signed agreement entered into in connection herewith or contemplated hereby, and any amendments hereto or thereto, to the extent signed and delivered by means of electronic mail, shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original contract and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effects as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. At the request of any party hereto or to any such contract, each other party hereto or thereto shall re-execute original forms hereof or thereof and deliver them to all other parties.  No party hereto or to any such contract shall raise the use of electronic mail to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or contract was transmitted or communicated through the use of electronic or digital form as a defense to the formation of a contract and each such party forever waives any such defense.
13.15    Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, any one of which need not contain the signature of more than one party, but all such counterparts taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
13.16    Governing Law. All issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and enforceability of this Agreement and the exhibits and schedules hereto (whether in contract or tort) that 

49

may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement) shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the Commonwealth of Delaware applicable to agreements executed and performed entirely within such State, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the Commonwealth of Virginia or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the Commonwealth of Virginia.
13.17    Consent to Jurisdiction.  THE PARTIES AGREE THAT JURISDICTION AND VENUE IN ANY SUIT, ACTION, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, OR THE PERFORMANCE OF THE OBLIGATIONS IMPOSED HEREUNDER SHALL PROPERLY AND EXCLUSIVELY LIE IN ANY FEDERAL OR STATE COURT LOCATED IN THE STATE OF DELAWARE. EACH PARTY ALSO AGREES NOT TO BRING ANY SUIT, ACTION, OR PROCEEDING IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, OR THE PERFORMANCE OF THE OBLIGATIONS IMPOSED HEREUNDER IN ANY OTHER COURT. BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY WITH RESPECT TO ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION, OR PROCEEDING. THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY AGREE THAT VENUE WOULD BE PROPER IN SUCH COURT, AND HEREBY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION THAT ANY SUCH COURT IS AN IMPROPER OR INCONVENIENT FORUM FOR THE RESOLUTION OF SUCH SUIT, ACTION, OR PROCEEDING. THE PARTIES FURTHER AGREE THAT THE MAILING BY CERTIFIED OR REGISTERED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, OF ANY PROCESS REQUIRED BY ANY SUCH COURT SHALL CONSTITUTE VALID AND LAWFUL SERVICE OF PROCESS AGAINST THEM, WITHOUT NECESSITY FOR SERVICE BY ANY OTHER MEANS PROVIDED BY STATUTE OR RULE OF COURT.
13.18    Prevailing Party.  Except as contemplated by Sections 1.05 and 11.01(a), if there shall occur any dispute or proceeding between the parties relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, the non‐prevailing party shall pay all reasonable costs and fees (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) of the prevailing party.
13.19    Acknowledgement Regarding Post-Closing Attorney-Client Matters. 
(a)    Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that (i) the Company Group and the Seller have retained Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP (the, "Law Firm" or “Pillsbury”) to act as their counsel in connection with the Covered Transaction as well as other past and ongoing matters, (ii) Law Firm has not acted as counsel for any other Person in connection with the Covered Transaction, and (iii) no Person other than the Members of the Company Group and the Seller has the status of a client of Law Firm for conflict of interest or any other purpose as a result thereof.  The Purchaser (1) waives and will not assert, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries (including, after Closing, the Members of the Company Group) to waive and not assert, any conflict of interest relating to Law Firm's representation after the Closing of the Seller, or any of its respective Affiliates in any matter involving the Covered Transaction (including any litigation, arbitration, mediation or other proceeding), and (2) consents to, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries (including, after Closing, the Members of the Company Group) to consent to, any such representation, even though in each case (x) the interests of the Seller, and/or such Affiliate of the Seller may be directly adverse to the Purchaser, the Acquired Company or any of their Subsidiaries, (y) Law Firm may have represented the Acquired Company or its Subsidiaries in a substantially related matter, or (z) Law Firm may be 

50

handling other ongoing matters for the Purchaser, the Acquired Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries.
(b)    The Purchaser agrees that, after the Closing, neither the Acquired Company, not the Purchaser, nor any of their respective Subsidiaries will have any right to access or control any of Law Firm's records relating to or affecting the Covered Transaction, which will be the property of (and be controlled by) the Seller. In addition, the Purchaser agrees that it would be impractical to remove all Attorney-Client Communications from the records (including e-mails and other electronic files) of the Company Group. Accordingly, the Purchaser shall not, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries (including, after Closing, the Members of the Company Group) not to, use any Attorney-Client Communication remaining in the records of the Company Group after Closing in a manner that may be adverse to the Seller or any of the Seller's Affiliates.
(c)    The Purchaser agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Subsidiaries (including, after Closing, the Company Group), that from and after Closing (i) the attorney-client privilege, all other evidentiary privileges, and the expectation of client confidence as to all Attorney-Client Communications belong to the Seller and will not pass to or be claimed by the Purchaser, the Acquired Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries, and (ii) the Sellers will have the exclusive right to control, assert or waive the attorney-client privilege, any other evidentiary privilege and the expectation of client confidence with respect to such Attorney-Client Communications.  Accordingly, the Purchaser shall not, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries (including, after Closing, the Company Group) not to, (x) assert any attorney-client privilege, other evidentiary privilege or expectation of client confidence with respect to any Attorney-Client Communication, except in the event of a post-Closing dispute with a Person that is not the Seller or any of the Seller's Affiliates, or (y) take any action which could cause any Attorney-Client Communication to cease being a confidential communication or to otherwise lose protection under the attorney-client privilege or any other evidentiary privilege, including waiving such protection in any dispute with a Person that is not the Seller or any of the Seller's Affiliates.  Furthermore, the Purchaser agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of each of its Subsidiaries (including, after Closing, the Company Group), that in the event of a dispute between the Seller or any of the Seller's Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Acquired Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on the other hand, arising out of or relating to any matter in which Law Firm jointly represented both parties, neither the attorney-client privilege, nor the expectation of client confidence nor any right to any other evidentiary privilege will protect from disclosure to the Seller or such Affiliate of the Seller any information or documents developed or shared during the course of Law Firm's joint representation.
13.20    Tax Withholding on Compensatory Payments.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, to the extent that an amount is paid or is payable to the Seller pursuant to this Agreement for the benefit of any service provider of the Company Group and such amount may be subject to payroll and employment tax withholding under applicable law (e.g., such amounts are payable by the Seller to an employee of the Company Group and those amount are treated as "wages" under Code Sections 3121, 3306, or 3402), then, at the written request and direction of the Seller, the Purchaser shall, or shall cause the applicable Member of the Company Group to, pay such amounts through the applicable payroll system of the Purchaser or the applicable Member of the Company Group and make all applicable employment and payroll tax withholding on such amounts in accordance with applicable law; provided that, if such amount has already been paid to the Seller, then the Seller agrees to promptly deliver such amount to an account designated by the Purchaser.

51

13.21    Payments under this Agreement.  Each party agrees that all amounts required to be paid hereunder shall, except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, be paid without discount, rebate, reduction or withholding.
13.22    Non-Solicit and Non-Compete.  
(a)    During the period beginning immediately following the Closing and ending on the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing Date, neither Seller nor Seller Shareholder shall, directly or indirectly, solicit or hire for employment any individual who, as of immediately prior to the Closing, was an officer or management employee is employed by the Company Group (each, a “Specified Individual”); provided that nothing herein shall prohibit Seller or Seller Shareholder from (i) conducting a general solicitation of prospective employees in the ordinary course of business if not specifically directed towards any Specified Individual, or hiring any Specified Individual where the initial contact with such Person regarding such hiring primarily arose as a result of such general solicitation or (ii) soliciting or hiring any Specified Individual whose employment with the Company Group (or the Purchaser), has terminated.
(b)    During the period beginning immediately following the Closing and ending on the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing, neither Seller nor Seller Shareholder shall control, manage, operate, be employed or engaged by, or otherwise participate or engage in any business as, or have any interest in, a Competitive Business. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent such Person from acquiring or owning as a passive investment, up to five percent (5%) of the outstanding voting securities of any entity engaged in a Competitive Business that is publicly traded on any recognized national securities market.
(c)    In no event will the aggregate amount of the Purchase Price allocated to the foregoing restrictive covenants exceed $25,000 in the aggregate.
